Huffington Post: French Elections 2012: 'It's All About Emotion'

Posted: 20 Apr 2012 11:26 AM PDT

PARIS -- Like Barack Obama, Nicolas Sarkozy swept to power on a wave of hope for change. Sarkozy's wave crashed on the global financial crisis and his own failings. On Sunday, the French leader faces a tough fight against nine challengers in presidential elections awash in fear and anger.

This has been a race of negative emotion and nostalgia for a more protected past: One of the world's top tourist destinations and biggest economies, France is feeling down about its debts, its immigrants, its stagnant paychecks, and above all its future.

Huffington Post: 'Chimpanzee' Movie: Alastair Fothergill, Mark Linfield Discuss Directing Documentary

Posted: 20 Apr 2012 11:27 AM PDT

Chasing chimpanzees up to 15 miles per day through a dense African forest, fighting thick vines and torrential rain, and donning a face mask and big rubber boots, are perhaps not part of a typical filmmaking experience.

But directors Alastair Fothergill and Mark Linfield ("Earth") did all of that to create "Chimpanzee," a new Disneynature true-life film focused on a young chimp left to fend for itself in the Taï Forest of Africa's Ivory Coast.

The crew faced a rainy season, dim lighting and long-distance running chimps. "Luckily, our cameramen are really, really fit," Linfield told HuffPost. "Sometimes Alastair and I were lagging behind, but the camera guys were right up there."

Huffington Post: Chick-Fil-A Politics: Food Writer Says Liberals Should Take A Stand

Posted: 20 Apr 2012 11:32 AM PDT

Here's a modern conundrum: What's a person to do if he loves a company's food, but hates that company's politics? When it comes to Chick-fil-A, a company with notoriously conservative Christian morals, one food writer says it's time to take a stand.

Washington City Paper food critic Chris Shott comps to digging the taste of those "greasy golden-brown morsels" of fried chicken, but admits they come with a heavy dose of guilt.

Like other progressives, Shott isn't down with Chick-fil-A's well-documented and oft-parodied disapproval of gay marriage. And in such a situation, he thinks giving money to Chick-fil-A makes a person "financially complicit, however marginally, unwittingly or indirectly it might seem."
