If you missed any part of the film, watch this. When we come back, you'll be responsible for having seen all of Atomic Cafe, and having taken notes.

Perspectives Assignment, 12/10: Blogging
Today, there are a few things you should try to get accomplished on your blog:
- Write your first post, in which you introduce your blog. Basically, you want to address the questions, What are you going to do on this blog? and What should readers expect in the future? (Find another way to phrase it besides, "I am going to..." and "Readers should expect...")
- Find some other blogs and websites that have to do with your topic, and link them, just like you linked the "Kennedy Blogs" site along the side.
- Read some things on these other sites, and try to find something that can be a jumping off point for your next post. If you can, begin to write it now.

Perspectives One-Page Assignment, 12/8
Choose a picture from among the following:
Hopper, "Nighthawks"
Picasso, "Guernica"
Homer, "Breezing Up"
Caillebotte, "Rue de Paris"
Van Gogh, "Cafe Terrace at Night"
If you missed the powerpoints for these, a version of them can be found here. The first was "How Pictures Work," and the other was "Mann and Rockwell." Make sure you're clicking on the links at the bottom--the ones that show dates with them--instead of the ones at the top.
Also, if you missed one or both powerpoints, make sure you get notes from a friend you trust.
