# Little Birds (TV series)

Little Birds is a British drama television series starring Juno Temple and produced by Warp Films. Based on the homonymous work of erotica by Anaïs Nin, the six-episode series was released on Sky Atlantic and Now TV on 4 August 2020. In Australia, it is available on Stan.
Inspired by Anaïs Nin's posthumously published 1979 collection of erotic short stories of the same name, Little Birds weaves stories of love and desire together with personal drama and political intrigue, set against a uniquely distinctive backdrop of hedonism and conflict. The series was filmed in Andalucia with studio elements in Manchester.
The series made its US premiere on the Starz channel on 6 June 2021.

## Premise

Little Birds is set in Tangier International Zone in 1955, one of the last outposts of colonial decadence, and a culture shock in more ways than one for American debutante Lucy Savage (Juno Temple). Lucy desires an unconventional life free from the societal cage she's been kept in and, along with Tangier itself, finds herself on the cusp of achieving a painful yet necessary independence.

# Union Station (Lockport, New York)

Union Station is the ruin of an historic former train station located at Lockport in Niagara County, New York. It was constructed in 1889, for the New York Central Railroad (NYC) in the Romanesque style. The station served the NYC Falls Road line, an east–west corridor connecting Niagara Falls and Rochester, New York. While technically not a "union station" - as no other railroad shared its facilities - it took its local name from its address on Union Street in Lockport.
There are conflicting sources regarding the architect of the station. According to the building's National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) registration, W. E. Houston and Bendinger & Young are the artictects. Another mentions John D. Fouquet who had designed several building for the NYC's Depew, New York yard. There is also local belief that it is a Stanford White design but the Lockport station is not listed among his known commissions. At its peak in the early twentieth century the station serviced 10-35 trains per day. The station was closed when passenger service on the line ended in 1957.
The building was unused until 1967. It was renovated and reopened as a restaurant in 1971. The restaurant was gutted by fire in December 1974, rebuilt and again destroyed by fire in 1978.
It was listed on the NRHP in 1977.
A private owner acquired the building in 2006 and has since spent approximately $250,000 on stabilization measures. The owner plans to retore the building as an operating train station by 2029.
The track alongside the station remains in active freight service and is owned by the Falls Road Railroad. The short-lived Niagara & Western New York ran a heritage operation between Lockport and Medina in 2002. As of 2023 the Medina Railroad Museum operated occasional heritage service to Lockport. In 1994, during Conrail ownership, twelve miles (19 km) of track connecting Brockport to Rochester, New York was abandoned. Consequently, the Falls Road route now terminates in Brockport, east of Owens Road at Mile Post 16.60.

# Shovel Ready (novel)

Shovel Ready is a science fiction novel by journalist Adam Sternbergh. It is Sternbergh's first novel and was released on January 14, 2014, by the Crown Publishing Group.
It shortlisted for the Edgar Allan Poe Award for Best First Novel in .2015.

## Setting

The book takes place in a devastated near-future New York City when economic disparity and gentrification spiked in pronounced ways. Its narrator and main character roams around a depopulated New York in order to get and perform contracts. Meanwhile, the middle class have fled the area. The rich can afford to escape reality whenever they want, and the less fortunate must "contend with the charred remains of Manhattan."

## Reception

The novel has been reviewed by Publishers Weekly, The Boston Globe , The Guardian, Chicago Tribune.
A running theme was that the novel, while enjoyed by many of the reviewers, is not for all audiences due to its subject matter and tone. Writing for Chicago Tribune, Michael Robbins called the novel "a lean thriller" but admitted that it's "not perfect or anything", a "less ambitious work than those geek scriptures" like William Gibson's Neuromancer (1984) and Neal Stephenson's Snow Crash (1992). "Once you hear the plot description ... either you know it’s not for you or you want to know if it's as awesome as it sounds." Jesse Singal of The Boston Globe summed that the book "strikes out at many targets and mostly connects", but that "certain sci-fi elements are served up merely lukewarm." Kirkus Reviews described it as "tough, sordid and definitely not for every taste." In the Guardian, the reviewer wonders about the appeal of psychopaths as heroes, antiheroes or narrators – "what's with all the lovable murderers? Shovel Ready suggests, in an oblique kind of way, that the issue is one of a broader social disengagement, but I think there's something more designedly amoral going on."
Many outlets praised the prose writing and narrative style, primarily commenting on the cadence of the hitman protagonist, with markedly rhythmic and short sentences, "telegraphic in style". "Sternbergh", Robbins said, "knows his away around the style", and splitting the cuteness that is good writing from the minority of times that it goes overboard, assessed that "most of the novel is likably streamlined." Singal, despite reservtions, "an enjoyable read, mostly because of Spademan’s strong — if occasionally heavyhanded — narration." the Guardian said that the plot drives grippingly, it is Chandleresque, with "tough-guy brevity leavened with hard-edged wit" & "swiftness, structured around a series of expertly timed twists and shocks." Publishers Weekly was less kind, decrying it "low-rent Raymond Chandler noir told in the style of very late James Ellroy."

## Adaption

A feature film based on the novel is in development by Warner Bros. Erwin Stoff will produce the film. Denzel Washington is expected to play the central role, a hitman in New York City.
# Hugo Matthysen

Hugo Matthysen (born 30 January 1956, in Ekeren) is a Belgian (Flemish) singer, guitarist, columnist, writer, Master in Philosophy and actor. He lives in the municipality of Hove in Antwerp.

## Biography

In 1978, he played with Bart Peeters and Jan Leyers in the coverband Beri-Beri.
In 1984, he regularly appeared with Bart Peeters and Marcel Vanthilt in Peeters' programme Villa Tempo as "De Hermannen". De Hermannen were three people with sunglasses, blonde wedge and wearing black jackets with a white sweater beneath, with which they intentionally looked like the German singer Heino. They played absurd sketches.
Matthysen then also started to write for the magazine HUMO, for which he would create several columns. He also founded a humouristic rock band, named "Hugo Matthysen en De Bomen", and in 1989 he delivered weekly contributions to the absurd programme Lava by Kamagurka and Herr Seele.
Together with Bart Peeters he created the radio programme Het Leugenpaleis for Studio Brussel. Later a television version came out with the (anagram) title Het Peulengaleis. Apart from that, he is the writer of TV series for children like Kulderzipken and Dag Sinterklaas and he is also author of the theater piece Frankenstein by Smrntwsk Alleen (1989). On top of that, he wrote some music texts for De Nieuwe Snaar.
The Dag Sinterklaas series he wrote about Sinterklaas (=Saint Nicholas, European origin of Santa Claus) since the early 1990s gave children in Flanders, Belgium a view on the daily life of the holy man. Also, it explained some of the questions children have around the event: why Zwarte Piet (Black Peter) is black (not his original skin colour, but because of sliding through the chimney) and how Sinterklaas acquires the presents (with a special kind of money). 20 years later, Bart Peeters stated it is thanks to Matthysen that in Belgium the Sinterklaas event has not been subject of a racism discussion as it has been in the Netherlands, because the series explains the figure of Zwarte Piet has nothing to do with slavery.
In 1990, together with HUMO chief-editor Guy Mortier, he presented the acts on the festival Torhout-Werchter (currently Rock Werchter).
His alter ego Clement Peerens became famous with his band CPeX (Clement Peerens Explosition – together with Ronny Mosuse and again Bart Peeters) and the girl band Hormonia.
In the summer of 2008, Hugo Matthysen again gave concerts with the Clement Peerens Explosition.
In 2010, he wrote the humouristic TV program Anneliezen.

# Parle à ta tête

"Parle à ta tête" (English: "Speak to Your Head") is a song recorded by French singer-songwriter Indila. Produced by Skalpovich, it was released by Capitol Music Group on 23 August 2019 and will be included in her upcoming album.

## Background

In an interview, Indila shared details on the preparation of her second album:
   I decided to put the brakes on. It sometimes becomes necessary. What matters to me is to release an album that looks like me and that is the most thoughtful.
On 20 August 2019, three days prior to the song's release, she tweeted an apology for her four year long hiatus and hinted at her return with the new single, saying:
   At least 4 years of silence I think? Sorry to those for whom it seemed like an eternity ... Without transition, I am getting back on the Train of Dreamers. Welcome aboard
"Parle à ta tête" was released on 23 August 2019 and is included in her second album.

## Music video

The accompanying music video for the song was released on 14 November 2019 on her YouTube channel. The shorter length version was released on 18 December 2019, and is three minutes and eighteen seconds long, whereas the longer version is five minutes and fifty-eight seconds. It begins with Indila in Santa Apolónia train station, in Lisbon. She emerges from a magical suitcase with a monkey. A porter delivers a pram to her, and she wheels it away. She then joins a queue, where the other people start to mouth the words to her song, and she is unexpectedly accosted by dancers who take her pram. She then finds herself in a palour, and walks through a mirror into an opera house. She encounters a mic in the stage and orders the monkey to be quiet so she may sing. In the next scene, she awakes with a flash mob singing the last chorus while recording with their smartphones and they unexpectedly disperse. Awed by the people, Indila picks a flower, and observes the Montmartre using a telescope. The video ends with Indila smiling and holding a piece of paper. It was directed by her along with Karim Ouaret.

# Left in Dark Times

Left in Dark Times: A Stand Against the New Barbarism is a 2008 book by Bernard-Henri Lévy, translated by Benjamin Moser.

## Premise

In this book, Lévy argues that in the wake of the failure of communism, the Western left has lost its ideals. It now fails to uphold universal ideas of justice, fails to sympathize with the oppressed, and has lost its commitment to truth. The left, according to Levy, has replaced those ideals with a pathological hatred of America, of Jews and Israel, and of freedom and liberty itself.
Levy also attempts to debunk what he identifies as the six chief claims of the contemporary European and American left. Liberalism is not merely the free market, it is also about democracy and human rights. Europe is about more than capitalism. America is not a fascist nation. Humanitarian intervention is humanitarian, not an imperialist ploy. Israel is not the cause of anti-Semitism. Islamism is homegrown, not caused by the West, and it threatens the West just as seriously as fascism once did.
The contemporary left, according to Levy, believes that any opponent of America or capitalism is good by definition. It is this reasoning that has led the left to support the dictatorship of Saddam Hussein; to turn the World Conference against Racism 2001 into a forum for anti-Semitic hatred, and the Sudanese government's attacks first on southern Sudan and now on the people of Darfur because that government is anti-American and no anti-American government is to be criticized.

## Genesis

Levy, who continues to consider himself a member of the "left", says that the book grew out of a phone call he received from French President Nicolas Sarkozy on January 23, 2007 asking for his support in the Presidential campaign. Levy responded that, "no matter how much I like and respect you, the Left is my family", to which Sarkozy replied, "These people who've spent 30 years telling you to go (expletive) yourself? Do you really believe what you're saying, that these people are your family?"
The phone call set Levy thinking, and he concluded that his abiding commitment to the left is rooted in his "adherence to the freedom and dignity of the individual, anti-fascism, anti-colonialism and 'the anti-totalitarianism that is the legacy of May '68'."

## Critique

The "New Barbarism" thesis has been criticised by Dag Tuastad, who argues that the New Barbarian writers tend to equate "terrorism" with "Islam" and "the Arab Mind", explaining the former as irrational, and therefore a threat from backward cultures. This neo Orientalist approach justifies continuation of colonialist violence in the Middle East and elsewhere It has also been argued by Paul Richards that the widely-perceived "barbarism" of rebel groups in resource-rich regions (like Sierra Leone), is not so "irrational" once you understand the distorted images of dominated people. The New Barbarism tends to blame the victims for their own condition, so justifying their hegemony.
# Matty's Funday Funnies

Matty's Funday Funnies is a 1959–1961 American animated anthology television series.

## Broadcast history

The original Matty's Funday Funnies was broadcast from 1959 to 1961 by American Broadcasting Company, scheduled during Sunday afternoons (with a 1960—1961 prime time edition during Friday evenings, rescheduled for early Saturday nights for the autumn of 1961). The series premiered on October 11, 1959, was later renamed Matty's Funnies, and was broadcast by the network until December 30, 1961; the "Matty" of the title referred to Matty Mattel, the animated boy mascot character for Mattel Toymakers, the show's original sponsor.
The show originally compiled the 1950—1959 set of theatrical animated short film series produced by Famous Studios, the animation studio run by Paramount Pictures, featuring characters including Casper the Friendly Ghost, Herman and Katnip, Baby Huey, Little Audrey, Buzzy the Crow and various Noveltoon, Screen Song, Kartune and Modern Madcap shorts, whose opening titles were reshot under the new Harveytoon brand because Harvey Comics, the comic book publisher which been previously licensing the characters from Paramount for its comics based on the cartoons, had bought out all the rights to the intellectual properties overall, and had since then already re-established the Famous Studios characters as part of its comic book legacy.
Matty (voiced by Cecil Roy) and his companion sibling Sister Belle (voiced by Sylvia Meredeth) would introduce the cartoons and show commercials for Mattel products. The animation for these title sequences and bumpers, all featuring Matty, Belle and the Famous Studios characters, were animated by Famous Studios veteran Steve Muffatti. Later during the autumn of 1962, the show entered local syndication as Casper and Company, with new titles omitting Mattel's original sponsorship, along with the Matty Mattel and Sister Belle characters.

## Matty's Funnies with Beany and Cecil

On January 6, 1962, the program was replaced with a new Mattel-sponsored series titled Matty's Funnies with Beany and Cecil, featuring Bob Clampett's Beany and Cecil. A redesigned Matty Mattel and Sister Belle would appear as directors of the cartoons and in many intermissions along with Clampett's characters of Beany Boy, Cecil the Seasick Sea Serpent, Captain Huffenpuff, Dishonest John, Go Go Man Van Gogh, et al.
There were only 26 half-hour shows made with this format, with the last episode broadcast on June 30 the same year. The series then continued being broadcast during its regular early Saturday evening time as reruns until December 29. From 1963 to 1965, the series was repeated on the network's Saturday and Sunday morning schedules (and then ultimately broadcast in syndication) as The Beany and Cecil Show.
