Life, and other slightly less important things http://hhslax36.blogspot.com/

 The final scene of caddyshack shows many things, from the triumphant dancing of a crudely constructed gopher puppet to the goofy actions and words a boistorous Rodney Dangerfield(as Al Czervik) to the violent and slightly disturbed demeanor of the greenskeeper Carl Spackler played by Bill Murray.

             "If it was it would not have cemented itself as one of the most popular comedies of all time"

The artful blending of the peaceful colors emphasizes the quiet, serene mood.  It is almost as if one can feel the soft, blowing breeze

              "the cold, rusty, silver, steel bed frame contrasts the blinding white and cooling blue soft, woolen blankets, but they are wistfully knit into unity with the bliss of the hopeful painted sky strewn across the walls."

Reading Responce : Lord Of The Rings II

this week i went about reading the second section of the lord of the rings trilogy. this book was a bit longer, but had so much more of the entire story unfolding. we start off seeing our characters separated and trying to go about keeping their world alive. the main focus though is on froto and sam as they dig and trudge through the terrines being led by gollum. the farther they set on their mission to destroy the ring, we see how twisted our mutated creature is. hes been tormented by so much and contorted from a hobbit into a thing of pure pity. through out this book we see sam turning against him because he didn't pity gollum like froto did. this begins to tear froto and sam apart causing almost a mini climax throughout the book. meanwhile while our two heroes are trying to destroy what seems to be the last of all evil, we have gimley, lagolas, and arrogon escorted with many others trying to advance on a near coming battle that could wipe out most of the world. if they fail to succeed, their world as they know will turn to hatred, evil, and death. this book seems to be leading me on to believe that maybe someone could fail, but be saved. or the possibility that our characters come through and save each others lives. i will continue this trilogy, and see what comes of this building climax of total destruction.

In the picture above its obvious what the scene is. This is a sight of bewildering glimpses of light breaking through a mirror of clouds above the ocean and beach. The sun being completely blocked out by these smallish tuffs of clouds gives the effect of almost an explosion above the water flaring into the sand. The sand also has somewhat of a mirror effect by being slightly moist. In the focal point of this image taken, the water is breaking and rushing back towards the view given. If letting the focal point take control of this image, the rushing water leads into this blackened out explosive boarder surrounding the image giving this picture a more of a contrast of the lighter and darker values.

What could be made from this picture above could simply be the artist exadurating the contrasts of the gloomy ocean and the brilliant flares of the solar rays. The artist chose this peak of the day because the sun was completely blocked out, but the shot still has the brilliance as though the sun was peaking through. Its almost as though the photographer was trying to suggest parts of life can be hidden, but mean so much. As eyes wonder through the screen the black explosive boarder appears more ubrupt as though trying to stress the focal point on the waves reflection of the sun. its obvious that this boarder was added in after the shot was taken, almost like the artist knew what they were trying to accomplish by doing so. Its as though they’re suggesting life can be so dark and misleading, like how the picture doesn’t show if the water is rushing in or out, but if focused on the highlights, the sunlights, life can be so much better almost like a paradise hidden behind the darkness.  

podcast inference #3

At the beginning of this podcast, one of the main characters is introduced, and explained. This podcast then informs us that Mr. Durrell is an orchestra teacher, and absolutely loves jazz music like he has for most of his life. But then the problem unfolds and clues are given as to why he may not like his job as much. The kids in his class hate orchestra. The students he has in class treat it as almost a time to slack off in certain situations, but still attend. almost like his class is a blow off class. This kills him, like it would any teacher. This drives him the point of wanting to quit and tell them to not bother practicing anymore.

Later on in this podcast, a second story and set of characters are introduced. David Sedaris was a young boy who had a father with a dream for his kids. His dad wanted David and his two sisters to become something great, and tried everything to make it work. He gave his kids instruments and took them to lessons. This only led him to find out none of them wanted to even deal with it because he pushed so hard to achieve what he wanted them to become.

These two segments contrast almost completely it appears. Both, Mr. Durrell and Mr. Sedaris love music and want it to impact the world and their kids, but had two different sides to this argument. Mr. Durrell practically gave up on his kids and was about to cancel what they worked for which was their state compition. This would have devastated the kids, like they had been doing to him. But on the other hand, Mr. Sedaris practically smother his kids in order to make them famous and great musicians rather than take it slowly and allow them to actually learn and develope as mucusians. It's as though there can’t be a happy middle of effort given by the kids and by the mentors in these cases. In a way it's as though the two were both poles, one forcing the kids to come together by showing them what they could lose and the other pushing them away by showing them what they could become. My Durrell used his class’s soft spot to get them to work together. Unfortunately for Mr. Sedaris, his drive only ended in a crash.

i chose the picture above because of the simplistic of the beauty that is portrayed. the color contrasts of the sky to the ground are very similar, almost as thought the two are congruent and meet at one point. to see the 4 different moons/planets is very scifi like as well. usually we'd never see anything like this, which gives it the element of a dream.

similar to the first picture i posted above, this almost has a complete dream affect to it. the concept that a rundown old house in the middle of this Field with a view like that is kind of crazy. makes you wonder if there's anyone there to enjoy it. also we see the field blowing in he wind, but in the back the windmill isn't turning, so again its almost a scifi element. the change from the greens to golds and straight up (literally) to such royal blues is very eye catching.

in the picture above we see almost a rainforest's beach. it has the effect of being Erie and almost isolated as if lost in the middle of the rain forest. but then again, we have the water and what appears to beach somewhat of a rocky beach. as you look past the trees on the other side of the water, we see the mist rolling in calmly as though the day has ended, and the horrors of night are coming out. the fact u barely make out the mountain in the background adds to that Erie effect. even though we had that effect of maybe being jumped by the boogie man, we see the breaking of the sunlight coming through.

Reading response

This week I have read Lord of the Rings part one. This book is kinda old but is still
One of my favorites. In this book we see frodo grow as acharacter and become more and a sort of an icon for the goodness in this world as we see evil come around it. It starts off with our characters in the Shire and Frodos uncle finding the ring and wanting to leave. Gandolf takes the ring abc gives it to frodo. Had him Hoff it from the world. I found this odd because something of such importance had to be hidden from everyone to see. gandolf makes frodo leave the shire in order to destroy the ring from the world which would save all goodness in this world.they Are hunted on their escape and reach Bree in order to meet Gandolf to leave it wit him. Gandolf never comes and Frodo's hunters finally catch him. Luckily he escapes and runs away to the elvish country. Here they meet many different races of people and decide the fate of the ring. The rings Evil destroys them all and Frodo is forced to take the ring to its death. Throughout this book we see many instances of goodness against evil and we later on begin to see the plot unfold. And we see frodo having to destroy the ring to save humanity and his world from evil. This book gives us many instances of where emotions can come over evil any day. from this we see that Frodo is a lot stronger than any of the characters within this book.

This group of images found on stumble upon were simply crazy. It shows the contrast of our past as a country in a rustic ruined state of chaos. It seems to be the ghost ships of pearl harbor and what they look as today, broken and beaten down like the souls we lost that day. We see how everything's on the verge of destruction and from collapsing upon itself. It gives these images almost a sense of excited horror where the scene of pictures showing the divers going through the ruins and exploring as though the screams and echoes of our fallen can still be heard by those who take the time to listen. The undisturbed coffins of the United States soldiers seem to be one of the last places of peace and tranquility, even though whats left is destroyed scrap metal. The contrast between what these ships were, and what they are now, is crazy. Time really doesn't heal everything.

Podcast Response : Music Lessons

at the beginning of this podcast we see one of our characters be introduced, and explained. we are informed Mr. Durrell is an orchistra teacher and absolutely loves jazz music. but we see where he may not like his job as much, the kids hate it. tnhe students he has treat his class as almost a time to slack off in certain situations, but still attend. this kills him, and drives him the point of wanting to quit and tell them to not bother. later on in this podcast we have a different story, and character.David Sedaris was a young boy who had a father with a dream. his dad wanted david and his two sisters to become something great, and tried everything to make it work. he gave them instruments and took them to lessons, only to find out none of them wanted to even deal with it. these two segments contrast almost completely. both, mr. durrell and mr. sedaris, loved music and wanted it to impact the world but had two different sides to this argument. Mr Durrell practically gave up on his kids and was abou to cancel what they worked for. But on the other hand we see mr Sedaris practically smoother his kids to become famous and great musicians. It's as though there cant be a happy middle of effort given by the kids and by the mentors. In a way it's as though the two were both poles, one forcing the kids to come together with music ad the other pushing them away. My durrell found his classes weakness by telling them he'd cancel state. And then you have mr Sedaris pushing his kids so hard to be the best he turns them away from it all.

final readings of the davinci code.

ive come to the end of this book and am in aww as to how it all wraps up. after our characters were chased they continued to persivere and ended up in back in one of the first churches they started in. Langston and Sophie look about the place and remember that sir isaac newton was a Templar. They approach his tomb wit the scriptex in hand and realize wat the code could be. Newtons greatest findings... Gravity. And how he went about discovering it was by an apple falling from a tree.... Langston realizes it. But before he gets the chance to open it the "father" approaches them at gun point and takes them towards the back. Secretively Langston cracked the code. He grabbed the secret and fOoled their enraged friend by breaking the criptex infront of them all. They escape and go about the city and find the resting place of the mother Mary.. She's gone.... The secret was lost and would never be found. Sophie is unite wit her family and langston leaves... It dawns on him later tht night tho. He remembers the rose line (blood line).. He follows it and realizes he was underneith them the entire time. She was where this whole case began back in the louv.. She was always safe. And he now was the only one to kno..
I'd recommend this book to all.. It truly was a great mystery of religion and what could be happening right now in our world. One word to describe it. Astonishing

Solitaire to a new level? Believe so. Every time a game is won, it always ends in this explosion of cards flying out of the screen and almost into the lap of the player. This artist took this to a whole new level of computer / reality intuity. The sculpture literally represents a freeze frame of the "congradulations" screen of solitaire. To understand the time it could have taken to make such a piece of art that has clearly defined the laws of our dementions would be almost as hard to make the piece. Its such a simple concept, but the result is really flabbergasting. As anyone can see, the computer screen is present in the background just like the actual game, but here it is almost as though a school of tuna rushed off the page in such a frantic manner that the fisherman caught them red handed. The green screen literally is engulfed wit these cards. Give the artist props for accomplishing such a puzzling task of taking an everyday solitaire and turning it into a waterfall of hearts, spades, diamonds, and clubs.

This picture is mind catching because this is the origin of lax. This is a pic of a box game or indoor lax. This is by far one of the funniest events I've took a part of.

davinci code, part 4

Im coming close to finishing this book and im flabbergasted. They’ve cracked the idea of what the cryptex holds, but have no clue what the password could be. Sophie and Robert have now come to one of Robert’s oldest friends who happen to be a priory fen. He discusses with Robert what the password could be but they have no real idea except that they must go back into the city of Paris and investigate the church where sir Isaac newton was buried. They are planning out their attack to accomplish this task when one of the butlers enters the room and tell the group that the police are at the gate and aware the fugitives were there. They sneak out the back door just in time to escape the police but now the heat is on, and they have nothing to help them figure out this huge mystery except a single lead…

Implicit idea of heaven and hell..

http://www.angelsanddemonsmovie.org/

 In the movie, Angels and Demons, we see the contrast of heaven and hell, the church and the illuminati, and the existence of good and evil. We see in detail how the church could possibly be corrupted, which would me in turn that everyone is corrupted but yet unaware. In this picture alone, we can see how well and evil can stand side by side forever, and not even realize it.

In the movie, we see the plot unfold to a point where the church is falling over itself. The illuminati come from, literally, underneath the church. The catholic religion has literally been ruined by what they believed to be clergy members, their own kind. Their whole debate through the movie was a state of authority, which is really right. The illuminati believe in evolution, and obviously the other side of the argument has been made.

This picture that i have found is a prime example of what the movie was showing us. The contrast of the pure and the deceptive is shown so clear in this half-half statue of a demon and an angel. The thought that the illuminati have been infused with the church is mind boggling. To believe that the base of our world could possibly be corrupted upon itself is sickening. By looking behind the statue we see St. Peters in the Vatican City in complete darkness, almost as though no hope is left for the Vatican and the buildings have been put to ruin with satanic evils. Yet we see a break of light, only enough to lighten the half of the statue which is the angel. This almost portrays a sense of hope through this empty square...
