The truth is, Munch did not title this painting "Vampire." He called it "Love and Pain" and it was only later that it picked up the name and interpretation of a man locked in a vampire's embrace. Munch maintained it was nothing more than a woman kissing a man on the neck. The Nazis declared it morally 'degenerate.' In the painting, we see a man in anguish, arms around his love, while she tries to comfort him. Perhaps she is laying her face on his shoulder even. Some thought it was about his visits to prostitutes, yet others saw it as some sort of macabre fantasy about the death of his favorite sister. Evidently Munch remained ambiguous about the deeper meaning behind it. It was considered shocking when it was unveiled, somehow people saw sado-masochism in it. Maybe it's her loose red hair and red dress that mark her as a siren. The darkness surrounding them, and the man's own black clothing make her stand out all the more. But is it really shocking today?

So, a "Rorschach" from Munch.(i.e.. critics telling us what they think about)
I don't see the "vampire" or "shocking" thing at all here. Notice the darkness (sorrow?) enfolding the man and woman comes from the man- and that she (and her love) is the only brightness and the light within that darkness. Vampire seems way way way off.

Semi-willowed so here it is again:
Saw "Alien: Covenant" yesterday- There will be some SPOILERY STUFF so avoid if you haven't seen it and wish to- * * * * * Okay, this iteration of "Alien" still brings the stupid pretty heavily throughout, but- it doesn't seem quite as stupid because the emphasis this time is on horror action so you aren't given as much time to contemplate the stupid as in "Prometheus" where it was all about the "mystery of human life". How stupid? Well, once again they land on a perfect, Earth-like planet, with cultivated Wheat even, and it never occurs to these Space Morons that an Earth-like planet would be loaded with Earth-like variations of viruses, bacteria, protozoa- which would be deadly. So, they're off once again traipsing around the planet, picking daisies, and dancing the maypole. At least, throw science a bone here, have a ten second conversation where "the integrated holistic endangerator" shows no pathogens of any consequence in air, soil, or water. Done. But, that's not all, two of the crew members almost instantly get secretly infected by spitting puffballs. And suddenly manifest horrible hemorrhagic virus-like symptoms. Almost instantly. So, of course, they're instantly brought into the ship. Not isolated. Not observed and treated outside. Nope. Into the ship. Hijinks ensue. This is not the intelligent "Alien" horror show you were hoping for- so just consider it a throwback to 1950s sci-fi with everyone wandering around bare-faced in Space Rompers and let it go. "Alien: Covenant" really is a throwback to something like "House of Dracula" where the creepy dude invites you into his creepy house to do creepy things.....to Space Morons (the bad kind). One scene still sticks out as the Stupidest Scene in the Whole Alien Series - the captain after seeing David, the creepy evil cyborg, make kiss-faces to the Oppressive White Xenomorph that just killed one of his crew- follows David around after seeing how shocked and angry David was that he, the Captain killed the Misogynystic White Xenomorph- while David is explaining that he has been experimenting on all the life-forms on this planet to develop and improve the Xenophobic White Xenomorph- and brings the captain into a dark chamber to show him the creepy looking Alien egg-pod thingys as his ultimate version of the Homophobic White Xenomorph- And the creepy looking pod-dealio opens up it's veiny, slimy Space Labia of Doom and David invites the captain to look inside becuz it's awesome(!)- And the captain, instead of shooting David, shooting the pods and getting the hell out of there sez- "Okey-Doke" and sticks his head in the pod. You can guess what follows. Aaaaaanyway, "Alien:Covenant"- The Good- Some great action scenes, creepy Alien stuff The Bad - Plotting still "Prometheus" quality but you think about it less becuz...great action scenes. Still, enough time between scenes that I was rewriting the movie in my head(not a good sign). The Meh - they really missed out on a great horror moment with the big reveal between David and the 2nd in command. Really missed. Expect, a really well-shot and directed 1950s sic-fi flick mashed up with a 1930s haunted house flick and you'll have a good time. Oh...and you get to learn that the whole Alien foofaraw, all of it, every bit of it, was caused by- a cyborg being ordered to pour a cup of tea. So, treat your robots well. That's the moral of this story. Posted by: naturalfake at May 25, 2017 09:44 AM (9q7Dl) 50

This is my theory about how it got the vampire name. Munch's style was still very radical, painting at the end of the 19th century. People still thought the Impressionists were rebels. Then Munch comes along and heads explode. Second, it shows a man in a position of weakness at a time of masculinity-uber-alles. The ambiguous and the seemingly-dominate position of the woman also added to the critique. Posted by: Kris at May 25, 2017 09:46 AM (nwqNw) 57

I've figured out the enigma of this painting. The man is in agony because he has no vagina, but instead, these horrid strange growths in between his legs. The woman he is embracing is his idealized, feminine self. It is an allegorical representation of a cisman getting in touch with his feminine self. It is a depiction of the needless suffering caused by transphobic societal prejudices.

Munch's work is definitely based on personal taste. I like this one, but he was an Expressionist. Their work is very personal to themselves. They are trying to express something deep and abstract, and usually the results are dark, disturbing or negative in some way. I'm having a difficult time thinking of a happy Expressionist.

I don't care for it, although I do like some of Munch's works. In an earlier thread I suggested this picture from The Met because many churches celebrate Ascension Day today. This is my favorite picture of The Ascension because it makes me chuckle ( I chuckle because of the homey nature of a number of the Renaissancey German religious artists) but also because it has a good point. If the last thing we see of Jesus is his feet, we Christians-through the Holy Spirit-are supposed to follow in his footsteps:

USAA has been awful for about 5 years. I haven't run the comps on my house recently, but if I've got enough escrow in there it may be worth pulling my mortgage from them and giving it to Navy Federal.
Seriously, if you're with them, pray you don't have to make a claim. We've had to make three piddly claims over the last few years (under a grand) and every time it took four one-hour phone calls minimum just to get them moving on the claim. Usually a few hours on the phone with follow up, too. I don't generally boycott, but if you're wih USAA maybe think about your options before you really need them.

Posted by: WisRich at May 25, 2017 10:15 AM (hdpay) Just a point of fact reminder-- she DID lose those primaries. The PTB in the Democrat party basically just threw out the results and crowned her queen anyway.Bernie bots were pissed.

Posted by: deplorable Jewells45 at May 25, 2017 10:33 AM (zRZaJ) I think most cars' airbags are designed to deploy in front end collisions, not necessarily when being rear ended. The sensors for the airbags are in the bumper of my car (and I have sensors for the side airbags in the sidewall behind the drivers door, IIRC). As far as I know, there are no sensors in the rear bumper (of my car at least). Oh, and you have to hit something pretty f'ing hard for the airbags to deploy. Airbags are super expensive to re-pack and can often lead to injuries, so car companies are walking a fine line between airbags deploying when needed and not deploying for minor fender benders.

For those of you who would like to know that there are still colleges in the USA that teach thinking, history, and Western Christian values, please go to the link below It is to Hillsdale College's video and page describing the new Christ Chapel being built on campus to provide a dedicated building in which one of the tenets of the college can be held, and that is religious freedom and worship.
Please watch the short video in which Jo and Jack Babbitt , who are providing $12.5 M in seed money for construction(ground breaking took place in April) are interviewed and who explain their early life experiences, Jack as a WWII pilot and Jo's brothers who were captured by the Germans, and how prayer and worship are central to not just their lives, but to an educated civilization. Larry Arnn (Hillsdale president and an education advisor to the Trump campaign) explains why university and colleges must teach religious education to truly provide a liberal arts education.

With regards to the painting, it makes me tear up. The woman draws the eye, but it's the man's position that really tugs at my heart. He's clearly deep in sorrow, clinging to this woman for comfort. Generally the positions are reversed, and you see the woman cocooned in a man's embrace. The reversal gives the title, "Love and Pain," so much more weight. It's genuinely moving.

231 Harry, that makes sense but her car was hit so hard it hit the car in front of her. That's why we thought the bag should have deployed.
Posted by: deplorable Jewells45 at May 25, 2017 10:38 AM (zRZaJ) I'm just guessing here, but if she was stopped, then hit and pushed in to a car in front of her, I'm not sure there would have been enough velocity for the airbag sensors to register an accident major enough to deploy the airbags. Airbags are designed to stop your forward momentum when the cars forward momentum is stopped by hitting something (so if your car goes from 60 to 0 in a second due to colliding with something, the airbags are there to make sure you do, too, and don't go flying through the windshield and/or break your neck) I don't know though. I've (thankfully) only been in fairly minor fender benders in my life (knocks on wood). Sorry about your sister though, that sounds super lame!

Not so much from a rear-end hit. Your friend might want to seek the services of an accident reconstructionist. These are people who are trained to analyze the forces and events of a collision, often with a view to determining fault. If it came down to a lawsuit against the car manufacturer, you can be sure the lawyers for the manufacturer would be hiring the best reconstructionists in the business to defend their case.

Posted by: Alberta Oil Peon at May 25, 2017 10:57 AM (XUcIQ) I meant repack in the colloquial sense. They have to replace the entire airbag system. My cousin was quoted like $4k to replace his on his POS car after he hit a deer. His insurance company was trying to slime out of paying -- typically hitting a deer is covered by collision insurance, not liability (which he did not have at the time.)

Cumberbland does a good job, but what saves his portrayal is the great Watson -- you can see the friendship that somehow survives. Elementary is awful because Holmes is good, but Watsonlady is stupid and irritating. Holmes depends on Watson -- anyone can play a quirky genius -- but who can show how they work together is where Watson is key.
* * Yes. Doyle's Watson was much like himself, with the Victorian attitudes of the day and many of the same experiences as a doctor. The character was a man of average -- or maybe even a little above average -- intelligence, but he was dazzled as anyone would have been by Holmes. You want to see a top-notch Watson? Try the Nero Wolfe stories by Rex Stout, also an A 'n' E series from about 1999. Wolfe is the eccentric detective; Archie Goodwin is his legman, the fellow who narrates the stories. Archie is definitely above average in the IQ department, but Wolfe is even smarter (a self-proclaimed genius). They're funny and fast-moving stories.

Posted by: IC at May 25, 2017 11:06 AM (a0IVu) Ha! Well up here in northern new england the most feared thing to hit is a moose. Bastards can fuck up a car. And unlike deer, they don't give a shit about wandering in to traffic. Sedans are especially scary when involved in moose collisions, because a bumper on a sedan is usually low enough to hit the moose in the legs and cause the entire beast to topple on to your car.

His insurance company was trying to slime out of paying -- typically hitting a deer is covered by collision insurance, not liability (which he did not have at the time.)
------ Should be covered under Comprhensive. No deductible.... act of God. Not an act of God. In truest legal sense? State's fault. Failure to control their animals.

He never got over getting so thoroughly schlonged during the 1980 election, which was a three-way race. Clinton, to his credit, shut the hell up and sat down. Or, perhaps more precisely, went back to what he loved best, which is pursing young, busty blondes. So it looks like Obama is going to be like Carter. I guess I shouldn't be surprised.

I just don't understand why Republicans talk to the press at all anymore.

Journalists and members of the MSM are the biggest liars and bearers of false witnessing in this country.
I noticed the report at Breitbart linked by JJ had the Fox reporter's supporting account be pretty specific that the GOP did it BUT conveniently didn't have her commenting on whether he/they were in the office without having been invited (forced in?) or about how aggressive the Guardian shit was.

Right, I'm more picturing the candidate shoving him, and he tripped. To perform an actual body slam is fairly physically demanding.
But I like to thing that our candidates can pull out some WWE moves on reporters when necessary. Posted by: Harry Parateste _______ I agree with that, if someone really got bodyslammed, they wouldn't be talking about their glasses. Posted by: Maritime at May 25, 2017 11:43 AM (SCkw/) 495

Posted by: Northernlurker, Phillips screwdriver of the gods at May 25, 2017 11:39 AM (nBr1j) Terrifying. My closest call was coming around a corner too fast, not paying attention, and looking up and seeing a moose just hanging out in the middle of the street.

No way, no how could we get around them. No other cars anywhere around. They didn't seem to understand what a honking horn signified. They looked miffed. I told my husband to cut it out because if they charged our car we had no way of contacting anyone (this was in 2005 and our cell phones pretty much went dead west of the Mississippi, but especially in NPs).

387 368 351, saw a dead moose and a seriously fucked up mini van on I-84 in Tolland, CT a few years back. That moose t-boned that mini van real good. Wasn't pretty.
