engineer is a shelved tamil language film directed by gandhi krishna and written by sujatha originally slated to be released in 1999 .

the film was based on the true story of the sardar sarovar dam project and was being made in tamil with planned versions in telugu and hindi too .

the film had featured arvind swamy and madhuri dixit in the leading roles , with music composed by a.r. rahman and cinematography by jeeva .

however , the film was shelved after 80 percent of shooting was completed .

despite reports in 2004 with a new look with a different cast and producer , this has proved to be untrue .

i think the engineer decapitated david to confirm quickly that david was not a human . the engineer suspected this because david was clearly the only member of his group who could speak with the engineer . evidence includes the soft touch the engineer originally gives david - - basically the engineer was thinking

so i think it ' s clear that david says something condemning the human race to the engineer while everyone else in the room is acting badly . so the engineer pats david on the head much like a master patting his dog .

if engineer was scared of david why did he give david a soft touch on the head before decapitating him ? he didn ' t seem to act with a sense of urgency . . . hence my answer .
david watches all this chaos . it ' s clear during the film that david becomes intrigued and amazed by the engineers . he is also fascinated by the idea that a thing can meet its maker . so we are not sure what david ' s mindset is when he first speaks to the engineer . we know that david is capable of murder because he has no feelings for humans .

if veteran production engineer , david donlin , were to place an ad for the ideal pe , it would probably read something like :

aside from paying a lot for that ad’s word count , donlin would argue every letter is necessary to be a worthy production engineer .

there ' s a difference between the engineer at the beginning of the movie and the violent engineer at the end , being one is muscular the latter seems to be either in a suit or biologically altered . the reason for this is unanswered but the engineer at the end seems to act more militantly , he can even fly the ship and plots a course for earth . i assume he does know who the humans are , it ' s his business and his job to drop all those vials of black gunk in his pay load . however , i also get david is ' playing ' with the scientists as he displays psychotic mannerisms , like he has his own agenda , so i wouldn ' t rule out that he whispers something malevolent , just to see what happens . is the engineer at the end part xeno ? perhaps . . . however , as a movie character it just would not make sense if he gave them all a big hug , said ' well done , you ' ve made it ' then flew off to destroy earth .

first and foremost it has to be recognised that the design and execution of the sound sequences in this film are outstanding . it ' s almost worth ninety minutes of your time just to listen to this film , the sound design is so good . it ' s also pretty satisfying if you have a fetish for old sound equipment – all those reel - to - reel tape decks and retro - futuristic signal generators and so on . from that point of view and from the sound perspective this film was absolutely up my street . toby jones as the lead could not be faulted and i would happily watch anything with him in it . so what was wrong with it ? well it was sub - lynchian without ever coming near to the pleasures and terrors of an actual david lynch film . you can almost hear the director straining to hit the tone of a lynch film and falling badly short every time . the script was at times very amusing but mostly it was just plain trivial or superficial . the story was incomprehensible , again not in a lynch fashion where the very incomprehensibility adds to the mystery but in the fashion of someone striving for portentous but merely achieving pretentious . it ' s worth seeing / hearing for the fantastic design but as a film it fails to engage and it fails to be half as clever as it thinks it is .
israel ticas is the only criminologist working in one of latin america ' s most dangerous countries . in el salvador , one child goes missing every three minutes * . many children are killed by other minors in gang related violence . ticas has made it his mission to find the bodies of these children , identify them , and end the agony of their families . the mothers of the missing affectionately call him the engineer . but for the engineer , death no longer evokes fear . death is his every day , it has become his art . he calls the bodies he finds
friends
and his office walls are a macabre tribute to them all . the state and the church in el salvador have recently brokered an unstable truce between the country ' s rival gangs . but will the let - up in the violence allow the hundreds still missing to be found ? will the murderers come forward and reveal the hundreds of secret mass graves still yet to be investigated ? through the eyes of the engineer this film offers a unique insight into the fight . . .
with a director / writer team of david fincher and aaron sorkin you’re sure to find a captivating , intelligent film . it’s hard to make a 10 minute long scene about hacking interesting , but the social network pulls it off .

tron was revolutionary . this box office flop was simply ahead of its time . as one of the first films to rely heavily on computer generated graphics , tron opened the door for many of the films we enjoy today . simply watching the behind the scenes is a treat for any engineer , but to watch the film is breath taking . my only complaint is you might want some earplugs for the harsh electronic music . don’t worry , though , they more than make up for that music in the soundtrack of the sequel .

the film has a simplistic storyline - - an old man is on his deathbed , and his last wish is to see his large brood of children happily married before he breathes his last . this is the cue for the seven pairs - -
before the crew enters the chamber to awaken the engineer , elizabeth asks david why the engineers would want to destroy earth . david replies
sometimes before you can create you must destroy
. it ' s also explained earlier in the film that the reason the engineers ship has breathable air is because it was terraforming the planet . so the engineers are planet builders , which is exactly what wayland industries has become . mankind has started to mimic it ' s creators , mankind has even created david so they ' ve become a creator as well .

i would also have to credit this engineer with some degree of forethought . he was the only one on this ship to make it back to stasis and secure himself before the pathogen was able to reach him . i suspect he thought it would be safer to be in stasis than dying in the halls .

october sky is the hallmark of inspirational filmography . the film is based on the childhood of real life nasa engineer homer hickam ( from his book rocket boys ) . it depicts his story growing up in a coal mine town dreaming of a life outside of the mines . to achieve his dream , homer needed to get to college ; too bad he wasn’t built for a football scholarship . inspired by the ground - breaking sputnik satellite , homer and his friends set out to learn about rocketry and achieve their scholarships though the power of their minds , not their bodies .
my suspicion was he recognized what david was and could extrapolate how long he had been asleep , which may have given him greater motivation to deliver his payload , fearing a galactic outbreak of this violent species . the engineer did not seem surprised to see us , likely as a diminutive and less impressive form of itself .
when the engineer is awakened he is faced with his own creation , that is mankind . there is weyland demanding that david ask him what the key to life is . elizabeth is demanding that david ask why the engineers want to destroy earth . one of weyland ' s bodyguards strikes elizabeth sending her to the ground .
not everyone is born with all the breaks ; the good life on a silver platter . to all those that dream big and have started small october sky is the film for you . after all , what is more american than rockets , explosions and nasa ?
wealthy , brilliant , and meticulous ted crawford , a structural engineer in los angeles , shoots his wife and entraps her lover . he signs a confession ; at the arraignment , he asserts his rights to represent himself and asks the court to move immediately to trial . the prosecutor is willy beachum , a hotshot who ' s soon to join a fancy civil - law firm , told by everyone it ' s an open and shut case . crawford sees beachum ' s weakness , the hairline fracture of his character : willy ' s a winner . the engineer sets in motion a clockwork crime with all the objects moving in ways he predicts .
although a pe’s job includes a great deal of communicating and organizing , the first step as a pe is making sure your director of photography makes the greatest images he can possibly make with the equipment you present to him . additionally , taking that captured information to post - production is in the realm of the production engineer .
almost a half - a - decade ago , gandhi krishna announced the commencement of the movie starring aravind swamy in the lead role . and madhuri dixit was penciled to act as his heroine in the film . in fact , promos still were also shot with her .
the ' ghostwriter ' wrote the sentence on a piece of paper , passed through a number of hands to ruth , and shortly after , as he stepped outside with the original manuscript , he was run - down ( off - screen ) in the street ( the same thoroughfare in the film ' s opening ) . he was murdered like mcara , in order to silence him - or were both deaths just an accident ? his manuscript papers blew down the street in the wind as the film faded to white before the credits .
well , according to dr . anil biltoo , the film’s official translator and linguistics consultant , david did as he was asked , translating his words as follows : “this man is here because he does not want to die . he believes you can give him more life . ”
an inspirational movie list for engineers would be incomplete without an entry from the star trek canon . unfortunately , many of the films focus more on action and less on the engineering and social commentary of the tv shows . first contact , however , brings us back to the invention that started the federation : the warp drive . though only peppered as a side story throughout the film , the creation of the first faster than light craft did captivate me as a child . a larger focus on the invention would have surely improved the ranking of the star trek film .
[ a ] ccording to dr . anil biltoo , the film’s official translator and linguistics consultant , david did as he was asked , translating his words as follows :
this man is here because he does not want to die . he believes you can give him more life .
the general was court - martialed and found guilty for failing to report and concealing the west point gang - rape . he subsequently withdrew from public life . the film ' s ending title :
today , nearly 200 , 000 women serve on active duty in the military services .
there was only one twin - elias . the other identical twin lukas was killed in an
accident
( probably one that also disfigured the face of the mother ) before the events of the film . experiencing deep denial and guilt , elias was only imagining that lukas was alive .
i had the impression the engineer did not fear humanity , so much as their lack of individual control . he was privy to , in a matter of seconds , hierarchical dominance behavior , aggression , anger , and directed violence . from the aspect of a species that creates life , certainly an undesirable outcome . perhaps the same reaction we might have if a beloved pet suddenly attacked us . we would put it down , for its own good . the engineer maintained a surprising level of apparent emotional control during his attack on the team and his subsequent launching of his ship . he did not appear to have any issues with completing his mission , so his belief in the necessity was apparent in his actions .
i am certainly not blaming the directors . it is just that the medium is different . compared to those who see the film , the readers are a minuscule percentage . probably my novels would have been read by 30 - 40 lakh people , but the films were seen by crores . in a medium like cinema where the stakes are high , compromises are unavoidable . they don ' t affect me . people who have read my novels are unhappy with the film versions , but those who have not read them are happy with the films . that in itself explains the differencein audience tastes .
sujatha is the nom de plume of rangarajan , a computer engineer by profession and a writer by vocation . he is the tamil novelist with the largest number of stories converted into films . he has worked with topdirectors k balachandar in ' ninaithale inikkum , ' mani ratnam in ' roja , ' shankar in ' indian ' and bharathi raaja in ' nadodi thendral . '
i don ' t think it was really what he said so much so as what david said was in the language of the engineers and that scared the engineer . think of it from his perspective . the engineer is in stasis and is woken up by small humanoids from earth ( i think it is fair to say the engineers would know more about us then we do about them ) . we got someone being very emotional , screaming and crying and then getting beaten and silenced , a creepy old guy , a dude with a gun and then david , talking in his language . the engineer checks him out and sees that he is different and perhaps a threat . he tries to destroy david and the others to complete his mission of cleansing earth out of fear from what has happened ; life on earth now is almost competition if not a threat to other life in the galaxy . in later films mankind is seen terra forming and colonizing the rest of the galaxy , similar to the way the engineers do it all be it not as divine or sentient . so i think what he asked was probaly what wyland asked him to ask , it was just the shock of seeing that humans had learned so much about there creators . but like prometheus , do we understand the power of that knowledge , or will it be our undoing . great film , great scene , great anticipation for any other prometheus sequels !
lien : covenant’s big reveal is that the acid - packed “classic xenomorph” was bio - engineered by david in his man cave . but covenant takes place just 20 years before the original alien . so , if the facehugger design was knocked together by a deranged robot in the recent past , how did the ancient engineer ship in the first movie come to be packed with eggs ?
i think for the first time in india , a computer has been used in screenplay writing , a method usually adopted by hollywood film makers . various software are available for this and kamal is using a particularsoftware called ' movie magic .

in the film ' s tense conclusion , the two agents engaged in a fight - to - the - death combat atop his destroyed control center - lair in cuba . bond raced to disarm the transmitter - antenna of a large satellite dish communicating with a second , deadly rogue goldeneye satellite nuclear - weapon .
dr . ryan stone ( sandra bullock ) is a brilliant medical engineer on her first shuttle mission , with veteran astronaut matt kowalski ( george clooney ) in command of his last flight before retiring . but on a seemingly routine spacewalk , disaster strikes . the shuttle is destroyed , leaving stone and kowalsky completely alone - tethered to nothing but each other and spiraling out into the blackness .
it was around that time i came across a folk ballad edited by tamil scholar vanamamalai and published by madurai kamaraj university . impressed by the ballad , i showed it to kamal to find out if it has the potential of a good film . kamal was initially reluctant , but agreed to go through the ballad .
in the brilliant first two - thirds of the film , the focus was on the strange and random behavior of the mother ( a
bait - and - switch
directorial technique ) , not on what the twins were doing . they went to extremes to test and torment her - changing the film ' s mood to torture - porn . elias let a giant pet madagascar hissing cockroach squirm from his sleeping mother ' s chest into her mouth . in a ghastly and brutal torture sequence , the two twins tied their mother to her bed and demanded that she prove her identity , or tell them where their real mother was .
let ' s consider the facts . at the end of prometheus , rapace ' s elisabeth shaw is about to set off in an engineer spacecraft with only mischievous android david for company , her intention to find the aliens ' home world and ask them what the devil they thought they were doing trying to wipe out the human race when it was they who created us in the first place .
so there we have it . david wasn’t up to anything sinister , it just turned out that the engineer wasn’t best pleased to be interrupted by a member of the species he was charged with destroying . apparently , the scene was initially written to involve a much longer conversation , so perhaps more details will emerge in the deleted material on the dvd . or even in a sequel . . .
read between the lies
was the intriguing tagline for roman polanski ' s taut and increasingly - claustrophobic film about paranoia and power struggles . it had similarities to real - life political figures , including british prime minister tony blair and his wife claire , us sec . of state condoleeza rice , and the halliburton corporation .
avid had as surprise in store as he descended upon the engineer homeworld – a plague of xenomorphs that ravaged the unsuspecting natives from the inside out . but what became of the thousands of aliens spawned in the attack ? the synthetic surely couldn’t have neutralised all of them on his own ? did they turn on one another ? or has david considerately opened a xenomorph sanctuary where they can roam free ?

the three main sections of the film were told from different viewpoints : first tully , then jake , and finally lena . jake was warned not to get involved by various competing interests , and clearly cautioned by american colonel muller ( beau bridges ) :
when i was at west point , we put a uniform on a mule .
at the very beginning of the film , elena calls francesco to announce gilderoy ' s arrival at the studio . although the film is set in italy , when she picks up the phone a continuous dial tone is heard , which is normal for the us or uk ; however , the actual dial tone would have sounded very differently in italy , a country where the phone system has a very distinctive and non - continuous dial tone ( consisting of a 425hz tone with a duration of 0 . 6sec followed by a 1 second pause , followed by a 0 . 2 sec tone then a 0 . 2 sec pause , repeated in a loop until the first digit is dialed ) .
' ninaithale inikkum ' for balachandar was the first script i wrote for a film . before that , my stories had been filmed , but i had not played any role in writing the screenplay or dialogue . for ' ninaithale inikkum , ' i had written a totally different kind of screenplay . unfortunately , owing to constraints like star dates , balachandar did not follow my script exactly . he made several changes and looked at the film as an opera on the lines of abba . my original script was lively and if it had been faithfully followed , it would have been a model screenplay . anyway , no regrets and i enjoyed working with balachandar , his assistant ananthu , kamal and rajni .
does david betray his creator ? his pathological hatred of all of humanity is obvious to us , but not necessarily to them . would he use the opportunity to ask a different question than he was asked or would he comply out of duty ( or programming ) . my suspicion is david asked exactly what he was told by weyland . not that it mattered , the engineer answered only with his actions to kill the team .
in the elaborate and excellent introduction was a footnote which said ,
this yousuf khan was originally a hindu vellala called marudha naayagam . kamal immediately jumped at it and felt that the story had all the potential of a good historical film . kamal felt that the religious conversion could be owing to some social oppression and that would form a good subject for filming .
the o in “o’horten” stands for odd , which is something of a translinguistic pun . it is the first name of the main character , a train engineer on the oslo - bergen line whose retirement initiates what action there is in this restrained , bittersweet comedy . and odd horten , a pipe smoker of few words and regular habits played by baard owe , is , true to the english meaning of his perfectly ordinary norwegian name , a somewhat eccentric fellow .
in the moment , the contorted plot and and multitude of loose ends in no way detract from the fun . what a thrill to sit through an alien film that evokes some of the cold dread of old . plus , covenant is legitimately gory – a reminder that , for all his reputation as cinema’s supreme visual stylist , scott can conjure b - movie ickiness with aplomb .
dr . ryan stone is a medical engineer on her first shuttle mission . her commander is veteran astronaut matt kowalsky , helming his last flight before retirement . then , during a routine space walk by the pair , disaster strikes : the shuttle is destroyed , leaving ryan and matt stranded in deep space with no link to earth and no hope of rescue . as fear turns to panic , they realize that the only way home may be to venture further into space .
it was both a complex serial - killer procedural and a neo - noir , with themes of generational sexual abuse , sadistic violence against women , revenge , family secrets , corporate corruption , and nazi racism . it was the first adaptation of the millennium trilogy , a series of books by stieg larsson . there were a number of questions to be answered in the film as it told its story .
where do you expect prometheus 2 to take us , and should it attempt to bring the story back round to the events of the original film ( on both biological and narrative levels ) or blast off into ever more expansive , existential territory ? first person to come up with a viable get - out - of - jail card for scott and his crew wins the gratitude of frustrated science fiction fans everywhere .
writer / director joel edgerton ' s twisting vengeance - based thriller ( his directorial debut film ) had some elements of fatal attraction ( 1987 ) , the hand that rocks the cradle ( 1992 ) , and michael haneke ' s cache ( 2005 ) . a suburban la couple had just relocated from chicago due to a change in the husband ' s work ( and after robyn had lost a pregnancy ) :

in honor of international woman’s day 2017 , financial services planners state street partnered with advertising agency mccann erickson to commission a handmade bronze statue of an unafraid young girl standing with her hands on her hips , her head back and her chin thrust out in proud defiance of the famous charging bull that stands in the heart of new york city’s financial district . entitled “ fearless girl “ , the statue is meant to be “a symbol of women and leadership in a place that no one can ignore” .

there was a time when
charging bull
was in a position similar to the
fearless girl
— waiting for the city to allow the piece to stay .
visbal said that team behind the campaign , which includes the advertising agency mccann ny , approached her to design a statue of a young girl .
we were focusing on making a statement about the future of wall street ,
she said .
we wanted this wonderful contrast ,
she said , between the delicate child and the aggressive bull .
not every person has the option to do so , but women need to divest at a deeper level : we need to divest our values of social equality from wall street success . we need to understand that economic justice is not the plot of working girl ; economic empowerment is not taking a helicopter to east hampton every weekend during the summer season .
the statue is a powerful symbol , but there is also substance behind it . fearless girl is part of state street’s campaign to pressure companies to add more women to their boards . the firm followed up the installation with a letter to the thousands of companies that can comprise the russell 3000 index on tuesday asking them to take action to increase the diversity on their boards . there is room for improvement : state street says that roughly a quarter of the 3 , 500 companies it sent letters to have no women on their boards .
the whole project is about girl power ,
she said .
i love that phrase , because it makes us a lot stronger if we are in unison .

most of the standard rooms have a street view , which can be really noisy , especially in the summer when the windows are open . there is no air conditioning in the rooms .
i did jump a few times , and i liked haley ' s dour malevolence , but overall , the new nightmare on elm street is a by - the - numbers bad dream .
the most potent weapon that firms like state street wield is their ability to vote the shares they own in a company against the company’s existing board of directors . so their engagement can have real consequences . recently , i spoke to and emailed with o’hanley and state street about why the company is pushing for diversity . the conversation that follows has been edited for length and clarity .
my feelings on this became a lot stronger during the financial crisis . people were asking , “how did you guys let this happen ? ” we could have done a lot more . so my interest in stewardship precedes my time at state street . one big part of my attraction to coming here was that state street global advisors does have this whole dedicated corporate - governance arm .
yes , miracle on 34th street is pure hollywood hokum . . . but the film is pretty savvy too , getting a jump on mounting anxieties about the post - war cult of consumerism .

at a press conference wednesday , attorney for ' charging bull ' artist arturo di modica demanded that the ' fearless girl ' statue be removed , and said damages should be awarded to his client .
“wall street is a traditionally male environment and it says , ‘hey , we’re here , ’” visbal told the journal . “to me , it says a woman can be delicate and petite , but strong . ”
it took nearly six hours to install
fearless girl ,
visbal said . first , the team had to artificially extend the tip of bowling green park , where the bull sits , by lowering a massive cobblestone base onto city property . they installed the hollow statue , which visbal estimates weighs about 300 pounds , into the base , and had to adjust her to offset the street ' s steep incline .
a times square elmo with a history of terrorizing tourists with his anti - semitic rants was hauled back into a manhattan courtroom yesterday for allegedly trying to extort $ 2 million — from the girl scouts .
the italian - born sculptor says the presence of
fearless girl
infringes on his own artistic copyright to the
charging bull ,
by changing the creative dynamic to include the other bold presence .

i ' m going to tell you a story about a man who fell in love with a girl from the wrong side of the tracks . now he ' s in jail .
advertisements – yes , that means , you , fearless girl – paint false realities that can be packaged and sold as products to the general public . look at fearless girl’s posture . she is , quite literally , leaning in . my mother’s generation used to call this “having it all” . both figures of speech presume there is something on the table , ripe for the taking . that couldn’t be further from the truth .
my daughter called me at 6 a . m . , and says ' you ' re in new york , you have to take a picture , you have to take a picture of the girl !
the young girl faces down the “charging bull” sculpture , installed in december 1989 — also temporarily at first — by italian - american artist arturo di modica to symbolize “the strength and power of the american people . ”
a group of women who work together also came to the financial district to see the statue on international women ' s day .
we really like the little girl standing up to the bull ,

speaking with cnn ' s maggie lake , ssga ' s deputy chief investment officer lori heinel said that
fearless girl
is more than just a symbol .
board governance is something that we find critically important .
sandler’s girl scout troubles began last year , while he was still in new york , when he started sending a series of allegedly unwanted romantic e - mails to his former supervisor , who is not being named by authorities .
a nightmare on elm street is a movie starring jackie earle haley , rooney mara , and kyle gallner . the spectre of a dead child rapist haunts the children of the parents who murdered him , stalking and killing them in their dreams .

it ' s almost surreal that sevyn streete r is finally releasing her debut studio album girl disrupted after two decades of songwriting and performing . and its release happened to coincide with her 31st birthday on friday ( july 7 ) .
new york mayor bill de blasio said the bronze , ponytailed girl
has fueled powerful conversations about women in leadership ,
and the statue will remain on department of transportation property as a part of its art program through february 2018 .
as far as the tracks from girl disrupted best resembling this style : the singer believes “present situation” - - a banger produced by superduo the - dream and tricky stewart , featuring a “crazy electric guitar and aaliyah spewing drums” - - is that “perfect combination of sweet and street . ” “translation , ” the album highlight about miscommunication in relationships , also encompasses that sound , as well as the august alsina - harmonizing “been a minute .
after describing these songs , sevyn - - looking ahead to the future - - dreamed up a seven - track ep titled sweet and street . if this vision becomes a reality , she would feature various male artists who would “say the hardest shit” against her “female rebuttals and sweetest lines .
duffy barely survived his last outing , in the morning i’ll be gone . suspended from cid , he was recruited by mi5 to take down a libyan - trained ira bombing cell on the mainland . that mission tied in to a locked - room mystery , and in gun street girl he’s got another peculiar case on his hands . it begins with a double murder . betting shop magnate ray kelly and his wife have been shot execution style in their home and their son michael is missing .
transient loon dan sandler , who also uses the name adam sandler , threatened to spread false rumors that the girl scouts of america arranged sexual encounters between underage girls and adult men , prosecutors allege in a bizarre new extortion and harassment case .
according to sevyn - - who has found previous billboard hot 100 success with 2013 ' s
it won ' t stop
- - girl disrupted is a “perfect marriage” that celebrates life and music . the singer opens up the lp with a monologue at the beginning of “livin , ” bringing up a previous battle with depression and how her recording journey was disrupted by “probably the most craziest shit i ever went through . ” simply put , girl disrupted is a triumphant rebirth .
interestingly enough , the next english - language dragon tattoo film seems like it won ' t star rooney mara or daniel craig . nor will it be an adaptation of the second book in the series , the girl who played with fire .
o’hanley : if you had asked me a week ago i would have had a different answer . there would have been a lower bar . but clearly , fearless girl has gotten a lot of attention and so she has already been very constructive .
now sandler has apparently been threatening to use his “bad elmo” spotlight to destroy the reputation of the entire girl scouts organization , for which he had done computer - programming work as a temp at the organization’s fifth ave . headquarters five years ago .
now , she’ll be asserting herself and affirming her strength even after her temporary permit expires — a fitting path for a girl who refuses to quit ,
de blasio said sunday . the statue was originally permitted to stay until only april 2 .
initially installed on march 7 for one week , the “fearless girl” sculpture appeared in media around the world , seen by many as a defiant symbol of women’s rights under the new administration of president donald trump , who has bragged about sexually assaulting women .
robert gordon , the leader of herts county council , said : “hertfordshire county council and broxbourne borough council have been aware for a couple of days that family and friends of cheshunt gold medallist laura trott wanted to throw a street party in celebration of her splendid achievement .
many of the people who have reached out to visbal are wondering how to keep the statue in place permanently . some are asking if they can donate funds toward the cause , or sign a petition urging the city to let
fearless girl
stay .
it’s worth pointing out that the wall street bull was itself an unexpected edition to the city’s landscape . in december 1989 , artist arturo di modica and a small band of co - conspirators lowered the bronze beast to broad street in front of the stock exchange in the middle of the night in a guerilla stunt . the bull reportedly ticked off nyse chairman richard grasso , who had it hauled off to queens . but di modica convinced the city’s parks department to reinstate the statue , albeit a few blocks away in its current—now shared—spot on broadway .
gun street girl is the latest in the detective sean duffy series by adrian mckinty , which originally was due to be a trilogy , but due to its popularity seems to be going to run for a little while longer . i was originally drawn to the series due to the fact that it is set in my childhood hometown of carrickfergus , in my childhood estate of victoria , and indeed in the location of duffy ' s frequently referred to house , 113 coronation road , on the road that i caught my bus to school every morning . no
rko in business ! and being a radio company , they were much more prepared for sound recording then the other studios . the visual aspect is something they picked up very quickly making them one of the top studios in no time . street girl is among their first films . filled with sweet jazz music ! and the music felt a lot more at home in a rko picture consider how awkward the music was in majority of the other films made at this time . the story is a simple one . a band helps a girl off the streets and in return she helps them . a gentle - hearted story with plenty of snarly remarks . that ' s what you get when you have ned sparks & jack oakie in there as the love sick john harron falls for the questionable betty compson . good fun overall .
artist kristen visbal ' s figure was first placed on a traffic island near wall street on march 7 , on the eve of international women ' s day , to make a point : there ' s a dearth of women on the boards of the largest u . s . corporations .
i ' ve been curious about adrian mckinty ' s work for a while . though born and raised in ireland , mckinty now lives in australia , allowing us to claim him as one of our own . despite my dislike of starting a series in the middle , so to speak , i couldn ' t resist the lure of gun street girl , the fourth book in his gritty police procedural series featuring sean duffy , an irish catholic detective inspector in northern ireland during the mid 1980 ' s . it ' s a busy night for detective inspector duffy who , after
reading adrian mckinty ' s sean duffy series reminds me of that old lay ' s potato chip ( or should i say , potato crisps ? ) commercial tag line :
betcha can ' t eat just one .
well , just try reading only one of these crackling northern ireland crime novels - - betcha can ' t read just one ! gun street girl is particularly compelling since it was loosely based on a mix of real life events that occurred in the mid 1980s involving secret operations between the governments of the uk , usa , and some factions in ire
a second attempt to reboot the a nightmare on elm street film series has been put into development by new line . following the underwhelming 2010 version , which saw jackie earle haley take over the role of freddy krueger from robert englund , new line opted not to press ahead with a sequel .
gun street girl . ( 2015 ) . adrian mckinty . * * * . there is a danger in reading too many books by the same author too close together . they all begin to sound alike , and the plots take on a common personality . i’m afraid this happened to me with this author , currently acclaimed one of the tip noir writers in ireland . i suspect that if this novel had been read at a further distance from his earlier ones , i would have rated it much higher . in any event , it is well - written police procedural noir , featurin
on twitter , people using the hashtag # fearlessgirl are calling for the statue to remain on wall street . mary emily o ' hara asked her followers to retweet
if you think the temporary # fearlessgirl statue should stay forever .
so far , more than 100 users have heeded her call .
anne mcnally , ssga ' s head of public relations for north america , told cnnmoney that the group has a permit that allows the statue to remain in place for one week , but that they are seeking an extension that would keep
fearless girl
in place for a month .
attorney norman siegel told the associated press that arturo di modica will explain at a news conference wednesday exactly how he ' s challenging city officials who issued a permit for the bronze girl to stay until february . siegel said he ' s demanding that the city release documents showing what procedures were followed .
arturo di modica , the sculptor behind the
charging bull ,
snuck it onto wall street one night in 1989 . unlike ssga , he did not have a permit for the statue , and it was removed by police . new yorkers were upset , and eventually the city returned it to to the public .
a decent early talkie , not too stilted . some nice songs , especially
lovable and sweet .
the story concerns a jazz combo ( who sing the songs remarkably like paul whiteman ' s rhythm boys ) who take in a destitute girl off the streets , who then sets about managing them .
…precocious santa claus skeptic in miracle on 34th street ( 1947 ) when she was only nine . emerging as a dark - haired beauty in her teenage years , wood moved into leading roles with rebel without a cause ( 1955 ) , in which she earned an academy award nomination for her portrayal of a troubled youth . …
i spent one weekend at hotel beausejour . the standard room for one person was spacious : double bed and private bathroom , eventhough a furniture and bath equipment were a bit old . the room was located on the 2nd floor with street view , and it was quite noisy . i was there in the summer , and the room was not equiped with air conditioning . reception and breakfast personel was nice and helpful . the location was also good : safe and resildential area , 1 minute walk from metro station parmentier , and 15 minutes walk down oberkampf street to reach marais district / republique square . good quality / price ratio for short stays and good location .
instead , we ' re told that the fourth book in the series - the girl in the spider ' s web - will be adapted for a new cast . we wouldn ' t expect david fincher to be back , either . steven knight , of locke , hummingbird and burnt , is working on the script .
fearless girl doesn’t have to worry about affording college – she’s owned by an investment firm ! no one can shut her out of the economy , as so many of her flesh - and - blood sisters have been : she owns manhattan real estate . in the financial district , no less ! no wonder she’s so fearless .
gun street girl seems snappier and pulpier than the first three novels in the series . it’s easier than ever to picture sean duffy adapted for the small screen – a bit like life on mars , but distilled in ulster . the book is a wonderful page turner , made all the more readable for its tempo , though the solving of the mystery does flatten out a bit in the third quarter . duffy is certainly maturing as a character – a touch less morose and a little more self - critical than in previous books – and that’s nice to see . the ending is open enough for this to become a trilogy of five , and let’s hope that happens .
“what this girl represents is the present , but also the future , ” mr . tisdalle said in an interview , adding that the firm was open to making the statue a permanent fixture . “she’s not angry at the bull — she’s confident , she knows what she’s capable of , and she’s wanting the bull to take note . ”
for the price we have paid , in madrid we would have stayed in a golden castle . . . . too much for a 2 stars hotel . . . . noisy room ( on the street ) , french bed ( it must have been 1 . 50 x 1 . 70 ) . . . . not a nice stay . . . .
“having it all” for most women won’t mean being marissa mayer or sheryl sandberg . the women’s movement , the marches for equality , are not about making every little girl a ceo , but rather about rendering the national dialogue more inclusive . ironically , urltoken has launched a campaign to convince americans to divest from banks that support the dakota pipeline .
sandler is being held on $ 200 , 000 bail despite his lawyer’s claim that his client is so mentally ill , no one could ever have taken his alleged threats seriously . girl scout officials and prosecutors stressed that sandler was never a direct employee and that he did not interact with children . sandler is due back in court june 13 .
…we are taking our commitment to gender - diverse leadership one bold step further . our statue has taken her place for all of wall street to see—a place where corporate america cannot help but notice her . in addition , and perhaps most importantly , we’re committed to helping boards achieve greater gender diversity through active dialogue and engagement with these companies and their board leadership .
