America the Beautiful 3
AICN: Capone talks to AMERICA THE BEAUTIFUL 3 director Darryl Roberts about the dangers of sexualizing our youth!!!
I have not seen the first two; is the creator of the documentary, despite his dislike of beauty pageant moms, unable to acknowledge the role of female weakness and vice in the problems he documents?
The first film can be viewed online.

Being a Bandwagon Fan This Year
Why not? They made it to the World Series after all, and I enjoyed watching some of the games with the guys. I remember going to a Giants game with the MD; tickets were given away for honor rolls students or as some other academic recognition. The seats weren't that great, but we had fun, and we went by ourselves -- no parents to watch over us, so our first taste of freedom. (And we didn't get into trouble.) I may get a Giants hat; but not one of the "authentic" ones. One of the replicas instead; the fitted hats made by '47 look good.
I'll have to brave the holiday-shopping crowds at Valley Fair and check out the Dugout store there.

There is some multiculturalism (though no Asian or Hispanic characters in the original Peanuts gang); will the movie have the spirit of Charles Schulz?

Bay Area Contra
From a FB event:
A word about gender roles:
Country dancing lends itself to flexibility about gender roles. Although we call the roles “gents” and “ladies,” all dancers dance either role and same-sex couples (or LGBT singles) are very welcome. Like many dances, the Palo Alto Contra dance sometimes is skewed in the direction of more men or more women. We encourage all dancers to learn both gender roles and especially encourage experienced dancers to take the opposite gender role, if needed, so that newcomers can learn to dance the traditional role first. Also, we support everyone’s choices to dance either or both roles and realize that sometimes people even switch back and forth. Dancers who choose to dance a non-traditional role or swap roles are asked to be aware of other dancers’ possible confusion. All dancers should remember to dance with the position, not the person.
More Dumbing Down?
Or will it be as good as the recent adaptation of Jane Eyre?
