“AN ABSOLUTE DELIGHT!” –Austin Chronicle
Walter, the world's biggest Muppet fan, and his friends discover the nefarious plan of oilman Tex Richman to raze the Muppet Theater and drill for oil. To stage The Greatest Muppet Telethon Ever and raise the $10 million needed to save the theater, Walter and friends help Kermit reunite the Muppets, who have all gone their separate ways: Fozzie now performs with a casino tribute band, Miss Piggy is a plus-size fashion editor at Vogue Paris, Animal is in a clinic for anger management, and Gonzo is a high-powered plumbing magnate.

Dr. Brian Kemp, Department of Anthropology, Washingstate State University
"Everyone Poops and Other Tales from Prehistory"
In arid parts of the Americas, such as the American Southwest and Great Basin, paleofeces are found in abundance in nearly every rockshelter. Much can be learned from the genetic study of such artifacts. In this lecture, Dr. Kemp will discuss the growing field of genetic study of paleofeces with regards to human migration and interaction in the Southwest, reconstructing ancient diets, and also that of turkey domestication.

| Description

He is known as the “father of Canadian photojournalism,” quietly clicking with the "eye of an artist, the concentration of a surgeon, and the reflexes of a cat." From Trudeau’s mischievous slide down the banister on Parliament Hill, to Ben Johnson’s momentary thrill of triumph at winning the 100 meter dash, to the accusing glance of a child of the Chernobyl disaster, Ted Grant has created thousands of iconic images over the past six decades, distilling our world into single, expanding moments.
The Silent Observer features Grant's latest work, a continued exploration of healers, this time from the point of view of medical interns. Grant captures these young men and women in classrooms, operating rooms and rural clinics, from moments of intense concentration to playful laughter, as they journey from student to physician.
Ted Grant is the only photographer to hold both Gold and Silver medals for Photographic Excellence from the National Film Board of Canada. He has published eight books, lectured at prestigious universities and taught courses for the School of Journalism at Carleton University. He has acted as Photographic Coordinator for the Pan American and Commonwealth Games, and for the World Athletic Championships in Edmonton. In 2008, he was presented an Honorary Doctorate of Laws Degree from the University of Victoria.

Director: Simon Curtis UK/USA, 2011, 98 min; PG Cast: Michelle Williams, Kenneth Branagh, Eddie Redmayne, Judi Dench, Julia Ormond
NOMINATED FOR 2 ACADEMY AWARDS: BEST ACTRESS – MICHELLE WILLIAMS & BEST SUPPORTING ACTOR – KENNETH BRANAGH
Yes, Michelle Williams can play Marilyn Monroe. She has the walk, the sexual sweetness, and the hurt, lost look. This charming and touching Anglo-American production is based on two memoirs by Colin Clark (Eddie Redmayne), a young man who, though a family connection, became Laurence Olivier’s assistant in 1956, when Olivier (Kenneth Branagh) was directing and acting in “The Prince and the Showgirl”. Marilyn, paralyzed with nerves, turns up on the set hours late, blows her lines, and generally exasperates Olivier. Young Colin tries to keep the show together. The movie is an amused reflection on different varieties of acting and of show-business temperament. –The New Yorker
