Spend time NOT talking to family with our preview
of the holidays’ most-hyped new releases. by Dom Sinacola

Holidays are usually meant for time with family, which is obviously why so many people elect to go to the movies on Thanksgiving and Christmas. Thanks to theaters being open, you now have a ready-made excuse to avoid talking to loved ones for a solid two hours. 

From St. Johns Twin Cinemas to Regal Division Street, every corner of Portland is thriving with film love, be it a first-run chain or local rep theater. So, to gird thy loins for the upcoming high holy days, I’ve assembled a preview of the movies you can see in theaters on Thanksgiving and/or Christmas day when conversation runs as dry as an overcooked bird. 

Red One

Following the box office shrug that was 2022’s Black Adam, The Rock optimistically reported from the set of Red One that his new blockbuster, co-starring Chris Evans and JK Simmons (as muscle daddy Santa Claus), is a “big, fun, action packed [sic] and fresh new take on Christmas Lore [sic].” After The Rock’s supposed chronic lateness and “unprofessional” on-set behavior helped push Red One to late 2024, this “new take” on the late-December holiday will finally see the overcast light of mid-November. Apparently, when Santa Claus is kidnapped, the head of North Pole security, Callum Drift (Rock), must join forces with world-class bounty hunter (come on now) Jack O’Malley (Evans, seemingly running on fumes), to save Kris Kringle. Whatever. I have no doubt this movie will be excrement, struck with surprisingly upsetting violence splayed against the most conservative values you can carve from a $250 million budget. This comes out on November 15; will it still be in theaters on Thanksgiving? Let’s hope not.

Gladiator II

If you’ve seen Ridley Scott’s Napoleon, you know that the octogenarian director cannot be bothered by such woke trappings of cinematic culture as “historical accuracy” or “consistent accents.” Instead, Scott trades obsession for the spectacle of history; he’s in thrall more to the bloom of organs erupting from cannonball wounds than allegiance to facts most audiences wouldn’t know anyway. 

That energy will carry into Gladiator II, Scott’s sequel to his 2000 original, which will surely be a stupendously gory feast for IMAX screens. Arms all veined up, Paul Mescal is New Gladiator, the fate of Rome on his shoulders for some reason, with Denzel Washington clearly having a blast playing an ancient weapons dealer. Finally able to put a career’s worth of ideas onto the screen, Scott’s never been more prolific, and never less beholden to anyone than himself. Respect. 

Wicked Part One

The first half of an adaptation of the musical—as well as of the 1995 novel on which the musical’s based and the Wizard of Oz writings of Frank L. Baum—Wicked has a runtime of two hours and 40 minutes. More like Wicked Long Movie [pats self on back]. Growing to the width of the Garfield balloon at the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day parade, Ariana Grande’s dinner plate eyes will ultimately occlude all other light. Suddenly, lifetimes will pass in the dark of that theater. You will wake in another epoch, another land, and you will discover there is still a second movie to sit through.

Moana 2

The November of The Rock continues with the last IP he hasn’t stripmined of all goodwill. That’s right, Rockheads, Maui, the beefy demigod from Moana, is back for the sequel. Originally developed as an animated series, Moana 2 went theatrical eight months ago when Bob Iger announced the series had been reconfigured following a revamping of the producing and directing teams—for solely artistic reasons, I’m sure. Rarely are reports like this a good sign, usually accompanied by accounts of animators enduring hellish work conditions or presaging a movie that feels functionally incomplete. Still, I can’t imagine families not defaulting to this Thanksgiving weekend. Will our thumb-headed megastar once again drop a People’s Elbow on the box office? I sincerely do not care.

The Brutalist 

Brady Corbet’s gushed-over saga about architect László Toth (Adrien Brody) has the accolades (garnering Corbet the Silver Lion at the Venice Film Festival), distribution deal (A24), and runtime (215 minutes) to make it the year’s biggest small release. Couple this with Corbet and cinematographer Lol Crawley shooting in Vistavision—a process that can make 35mm film look as huge as 70mm in the theater just by running the stock through the camera sideways—and expect to see this engorged on the swollest screens in town. It’s so intentionally and obviously epic, you’d be forgiven for assuming architect László Toth is a real person. The magic of cinema!

Babygirl

I was going to make a joke about Halina Reijn’s Babygirl being the perfect choice for families wanting to watch a horny movie together on Christmas, but looking into the film’s reception at the Toronto International Film Festival, I find critics saying that Nicole Kidman’s performance as a repressed CEO who forms a sub-dom bond with an intern (Harris Dickinson) is a brave and reflexive exploration of her career and aging physicality. So I will be similarly brave and refrain from making that joke.

Nosferatu

A young foil to Ridley Scott and his disregard for the exigencies of time, Robert Eggers is a horror filmmaker who makes macabre period pieces—The Witch, The Lighthouse, The Northman—that are so thoroughly researched they feel like stolen visions, like sights from the past that we have no right to witness. With Nosferatu, he seems to be pulling from F.W. Murnau’s 1922 silent film as much as from Werner Herzog’s 1979 remake and Bram Stoker’s 1897 Dracula novel, filtering his hyper-literate taste through a century of German expressionism. 

A Complete Unknown

James Mangold responds to Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story—a satire responding to the pestilence of Oscar-bait biopics birthed by Mangold’s Walk the Line—by making an even more by-the-numbers take on an iconic musician. This time it’s Bob Dylan, given approximate life by Timothée Chalamet. A Complete Unknown will almost certainly hinge on Dylan going electric at the 1965 Newport Folk Festival, giving him the opportunity to reminisce about what led up to this all-culminating cultural moment. Its financial returns will be optimistic, its award season obligatory. So it is foretold.

Better Man

While we’re on the subject of biopics: Better Man is about the life of UK pop idol Robbie Williams… only he’s a CGI chimpanzee and no one else in the movie acknowledges he’s a CGI chimpanzee. I hesitate to call this conceit so stupid it may be genius, but I won’t hesitate to recommend it, because we both know it will be [my eyes glaze over and soul noticeably disappears from my body] bananas.

Western Exploration Inc. (WEX:TSX.V; WEXPF:OTC) had its fair value increased by Fundamental Research Corp. (FRC) to CA$2.67 per share from CA$2.07 on anticipation of a material resource expansion at the Aura gold-silver project in Nevada, FRC Head of Research Sid Rajeev reported in an Oct. 31 research note.

"[The company] has made notable strides at its Aura gold-silver project, showcasing promising drill results, and improved recoveries," Rajeev wrote. "With mergers and acquisitions (M&A) activity on the rise, we believe Western Exploration Inc. is emerging as a strong acquisition target."

At the time of the report, the explorer was priced at CA$1.24 per share. As such, the new fair value implies a potential return for investors of 115%.

Western Exploration remains a Buy.

Current Project Highlights

Rajeev provided a current overview of the Aura project, noting the company has made significant progress there since FRC's last report, in January.

This Nevada property hosts sediment-hosted, Carlin-style gold deposits. Three have been identified there to date: Doby George, Gravel Creek, and Wood Gulch.

Doby George hosts near-surface, high-grade oxide gold, and mineralization amenable to heap-leach processing, thereby having the potential for relatively low capex and opex. Recent metallurgical heap-leach tests at Doby George yielded a higher gold recovery rate of 72%, up from 69%. This is on the higher end of recoveries for a typical open-pit mine.

Gravel Creek, in contrast, hosts underground, high-grade sulfide gold mineralization. Initial results from an ongoing resource expansion drill program there have been "highly promising," wrote Rajeev. Intercepts have returned unusually high grades, up to 75 grams per ton (75 g/t) gold and 3,080 g/t silver. Assay results from drill hole WGC459 indicate that high-grade mineralization extends at least 80 meters north of the Discovery zone. Preliminary metallurgical test results from Gravel Creek showed "impressive recoveries of 95%" toward the upper end of the usual range for an underground operation.

Resource Expansion Potential

The current aggregated resource of all three deposits is 652,000 ounces of gold equivalent (652 Koz of Au eq) in the Indicated category and 665 Koz Au eq in the Inferred category.

"We believe there is potential for resource expansion as the deposits remain open in multiple directions," Rajeev wrote. He noted which areas remain prospective, and they are Wood Gulch, Gravel Creek, The Gap (the undrilled area between them), the Jarbidge Hanging Wall (without a resource), and the Northeast Extension (undrilled).

Catalysts To Watch For

Rajeev noted future events that could boost Western Exploration's share price. Results of ongoing drilling at Aura is one. Next year, an update to the Gravel Creek and Doby George resource is expected in H1/25. A preliminary feasibility study for Doby George is slated to follow in Q4/25.

Another catalyst is the gold sector, the outlook for which is favorable. M&A activity has picked up as majors are looking for projects to boost their production profile. The trend is positive for this company advancing its precious metals project.

"We maintain a positive outlook on gold in light of the anticipated rate cuts by the U.S. Federal Reserve and elevated geopolitical tensions," the analyst wrote. "We see [Western Exploration] as a prime acquisition target."

For those of us who can't afford to fly Business Class, design studio JPA has designed a better Premium Economy seat.

The new design takes cues from a wingback chair, providing greater privacy on either side of your head.

A nice, unexpectedly elegant design touch is this reading light integrated into the headrest.

Thigh support is offered when the seats recline.

There's also a footrest you can fold down.

The seatback monitors are gigantic, and the seatback tray has been replaced with a phone/tablet tray, in case you want to supplant the onboard programming with your own.

The trays are now located in the armrests.

The non-tray armrests of each seat feature a storage compartment with a light and a USB-C port.

Between the seats, on the center console are conventional power outlets.

The new seat designs are slated for Cathay-Pacific's 777-300ER wide-body planes.

Perinatal mental health is gaining recognition as a key antecedent of adverse maternal and child outcomes as the United States experiences a maternal mortality and morbidity crisis. Recent policy efforts have attempted to mitigate adverse outcomes through legislation and extending access to care with postpartum coverage through Medicaid expansion. Even with progress, perinatal mental health policy continues to grapple with a basic truth: The United States lacks an overarching health care system capable of meeting the mental health care needs of perinatal people and their families. Moreover, the burden of undiagnosed and untreated perinatal mental health challenges remains greatest among racially minoritized populations, such as Black, Asian, and multiracial people. A broader understanding of perinatal mental health is needed, grounded in the tenets of reproductive justice. Drawing from the reproductive justice framework and the NAPSW code of ethics, this talk will articulate specific policies to meet perinatal mental health challenges and promote thriving for birthing people and their families.

Free and open to the public.

Molecular compartmentalization is vital for cellular physiology. For instance, proteins for intercellular adhesion and communication are localized to the cell surface while many energy-producing enzymes stay in the mitochondrion. High-resolution, proteome-wide mapping of protein localization is of core importance for understanding cellular organization and processes.

In this talk, Jiefu Li, Ph.D., will describe an end-to-end pipeline for in situ cell-surface proteomics, from chemical and transgenic tools to a user-friendly platform for data analysis, and present how in situ cell-surface proteomics of developing brains discovers “outside-the-box” regulators of neuronal wiring. Moreover, in vivo interactome mapping of key synaptic organizers uncovers the cellular and molecular mechanisms of synaptic matching and maturation and highlights the RhoGAP/RhoGEF as a signaling hub for synaptic development.

THE HAGUE, 22 July 2016 – The Association for Historical Dialogue and Research (AHDR), a Cyprus-based non-governmental organization, has been named the winner of the 2016 Max van der Stoel Award.

The international jury, led by OSCE High Commissioner on National Minorities Astrid Thors, said:

“There are many instances in the experience of HCNM where educational systems are divided according to the way in which different groups in society view history and decisive, historical events within their own country. This can often lead to a self-perpetuating separation of majority and minority communities as well as different ethnicities. We also see how historical narratives continue to be used to divide societies and occasionally to pit one group against another.”

“The Association for Historical Dialogue and Research (AHDR) from Cyprus is a non-governmental organization that is bi-communal both in terms of its focus area and its staff. Throughout the last 13 years, AHDR demonstrated sustained commitment to building a multilingual and multi-faith society which celebrates diversity and promotes mutual respect and understanding.”

 “AHDR was established in 2003 by a group of history educators and researchers dedicated to the advancement of historical understanding and critical thinking amongst the public and, more specifically, amongst pupils, educators and civil society.”

“This initiative took place at a time of historic change: on 23 April 2003, travel restrictions between the two sides of the Green Line in Cyprus were relaxed and several thousand Greek Cypriots and Turkish Cypriots had their first chance since 1974 to cross the divide. Such a context provided а renewed impetus for AHDR to further develop new ways to understand the past with an emphasis on multi-perspectivity.”

“For AHDR, controversial issues should not be avoided but rather approached in a critical and empathetic way. In order to do so, AHDR provides access to learning opportunities for individuals from different ethnic, religious, cultural and social backgrounds including  teacher training sessions, cultural excursions, seminars and conferences. It developed a range of supplementary teaching materials in order to help, among other things, to address the legacies of a violent past.”

Since its foundation in 2003, the aim of AHDR is to contribute to the advancement of historical understanding in Cyprus amongst the public and educators, regardless of ethnic, religious, cultural or social background, by providing access to learning opportunities based on respect for diversity and the dialogue of ideas.  

The Max van der Stoel Award will be presented to the winner on 24 October 2016 during a ceremony in The Hague.
