Then, my gaze fell on the old crank coffee mill—Goodwood, or G.W. for short—that had been living on the countertop for several years. G.W. had never moved or made a sound, and he certainly never complained about all the attention K got. |
That same morning after I laid K to rest in the recycling bin—I knew she wanted her parts donated—I put G.W.to the test. I loaded his portal with fresh coffee beans and cranked the handle, around and around, smiling as he revealed his deep bass voice. He worked hard to produce a good java. However, because he was older... |
Now, as I sip a cup of café mocha borne from G. W.’s hard work, I smile as I realize he has proven to be a wonderful friend. Over time, his joints have loosened a bit and he is a bit more spry, always eager to grind my beans to perfection. Too bad him and K never noticed each other when she was alive. They would have m... |

President Donal Trump on Wednesday tweeted that "the United States Government will not accept or allow transgender individuals to serve in any capacity in the U.S. Military." |
Editor's note: This story was updated to include responses from more GOP members of Congress. |
President Donald Trump took to Twitter on Wednesday morning to announce a dramatic shift in military policy. |
The announcement comes a month after Secretary of Defense James Mattis delayed a plan to accept transgender troops by six months to study the costs of requiring the Pentagon to cover gender transition treatments to service members, a policy which began during the Obama administration. |
The president’s proposal surprised many in Congress. Congressional leadership was reportedly not informed of the change before the president tweeted. |
There was some pushback from Republicans in the U.S. Senate, notably Armed Services Committee Chair John McCain, as well as conservative Sens. Joni Ernst and Orrin Hatch. |
Of the nine Republican New York members of Congress, five had returned requests for comment. |
Rep. Elise Stefanik wrote in a statement that she has the “deepest respect and admiration for anyone who wishes to serve our nation.” She wrote that she “supports the review” ordered by Mattis, and believes that he and “senior military leaders should be given the time and authority to consult with medical and personnel... |
“I personally see no reason why Americans who meet mental and physical fitness standards shouldn’t be able to serve their country, and I’d like to hear more from the Department of Defense on how this policy will impact the armed forces,” Donovan said. |
Rep. Lee Zeldin, a veteran, agreed that while “we should find a place for any American to be able to protect our national defense who is willing to risk their life in defense of our freedoms and liberties,” he believes that “ultimately, this is a decision for the President to make as the Commander in Chief.” He noted t... |
“From my own personal observations, the military was in fact starting to go way over the top in the obsession and prioritization of social engineering its own ranks over accomplishing the most important mission of protecting our national defense,” Zeldin said. |
New York’s Democratic senators, meanwhile, each released characteristically fiery statements opposing the change in policy. |
U.S. Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, released a statement saying that “this new directive is harmful, misguided, and weakens – not strengthens – our military.” She added that she will introduce legislation to override the ban. |
A 2016 study by the RAND Corporation estimated that there are 2,450 transgender individuals currently serving in active duty in the military. The same study found that providing services for transgender soldiers on active duty would cause health care costs for the Pentagon rise 0.04 percent to 0.13 percent. |

Claire and Jane team up once again with Mat Fernandez, to pick out some of their favourite films from this year’s BFI London Film Festival. Reviewing COLUMBUS, THREE BILLBOARDS OUTSIDE EBBING MISSOURI, HOW TO TALK TO GIRLS AT PARTIES, WONDERSTRUCK, BRAWL IN CELL BLOCK 99, LAST FLAG FLYING, CALL ME BY YOUR NAME, LUCKY, ... |
Jane and Claire pick out some of the highlights from this year’s BFI London Film Festival, which runs from 4th-15th Oct. |
It is nearly that most glorious time of the year again, October. My favourite month, mostly because it is the month in which the BFI holds its annual London Film Festival. This year celebrates 60 years of the film festival and this year’s programme reflects this diamond anniversary, not just with its sparkling colour t... |
This year I was fortunate enough to attend the press release at the Odeon Leicester Square and it was very difficult not to get sucked in to the electric excitement in the room as Claire Stewart announced one exclusive title after another. The most interesting thing about the press release was seeing the trailers and c... |
So what is there to see this year? Well the answer, I’m afraid in a good and bad way (good because there’s lots of great films to see, but bad because there aren’t enough hours in the day), is a lot. So here’s a brief rundown of what’s appearing. |
From the director of 2013’s ‘Belle’ comes another real life story focusing on race relations and racial discrimination. It follows Prince Seretse Khama of Botswana (Oyelowo) who chooses to marry a white woman from England (Pike), which is followed by outrage from both countries at his choice. I’ve seen the trailer for ... |
Opening night gala screening on 6th Oct, also screening on 11th Oct. |
This is Ben Wheatley’s second consecutive appearance at the festival after last year’s fantastic ‘High Rise’ and this year’s ‘Free Fire’ looks just as, if not more, exciting. We were very fortunate to see the trailer at the press screening as an exclusive. I don’t want to jump the gun (and there will be plenty of guns)... |
Another highly anticipated film comes from the ‘Whiplash’ director Damien Chazelle. At only 30 years old Chazelle is already creating master pieces and I expect La La Land to be no exception. Again we were lucky enough to see a clip at the press launch, and although there was little dialogue or hint at plot, I found my... |
This years stunning BFI restoration is Arthur Robison’s ‘The Informer’, bought to you in all it’s lavender tinted glory. Expertly restored, the image leaps off the screen, engulfing you in the action. It follows the story of Gypo Nolan (Hanson), a conflicted man who is torn between loyalty, honestly and survival. With ... |
Be prepared for something a bit different if you go to see Park Chan-Wook’s latest offering ‘The Handmaiden’. The director of ‘Oldboy’ and ‘Stoker’ is known for is visual flare and sometimes shocking scenes, so expect this to be no different. Set in 1930s Korea, this tale of manipulated young woman is bound to be fasci... |
Set in 1980’s Miami, we follow to story of Chiron (Sanders) through his life from adolescence to adulthood as he struggles with his sexuality and the world of drug trafficking. A film I probably would have possibly overlooked if I hadn’t seen clips at the press launch, it’s worth seeing this potential Oscar nomination. |
You may note the lack of cast listed above. No, this isn’t a mistake, there is no cast in this dialogue free animation. This visually stunning looking animation is a co production from Studio Ghibli and Prima Linea Productions and promises to be a must see at the festival. Like other Ghibli films, this is best suited f... |
This deep documentary which some have dubbed an extended version of the ‘creation of the universe’ sequence from ‘Tree of Life’, is visually stunning and paired perfectly with Blanchett’s smooth Australian tones. A must see in the cinema. |
This is always a highlight of the festival for me and is often a chance to see something exclusive a long time before its release date. Last year’s offering was ‘Anomolisa’ which was shown a full five months before it’s UK release and had Charlie Kaufman in attendance. In 2014 we had Inarritu’s ‘Birdman’ three months b... |
As tastes vary, I have asked my fellow Sound and Vision colleague Claire to put forward her selections from the festival to give you a broader picture. |
Chazelle + Gosling + Stone + romance + jazz + LA + Hollywood musicals = a dreamy, unmissable OSCARs frontrunner. |
Screening on 7th, 8th & 16th Oct. |
A touching & hilarious comedy from Germany, about a father’s misguided attempts to inject some humour back into his stressed-out daughter’s life, via a series of bizarre pranks. This year’s big hit at Cannes. |
Screening on 8th & 9th Oct. |
One of two David Lynch documentaries in this year’s programme, (along with Blue Velvet Revisited), this promises to take us on a journey through the art & life of Lynch, and has the bonus of being narrated by the great man himself. Sure to be wild at heart and weird on top. |
Screening on 9th, 10th & 11th Oct. |
Completely bonkers musical revue oddity from 1930, filmed in glorious two-colour Technicolor, and now restored to the most complete version seen in decades. |
Tickets go on sale to the public on the 15th of September. |
Claire and Tony serve up a film festival special this week, with reviews from this year’s FrightFest, and a look at some of the treats in store at next month’s BFI London Film Festival. |
