It’s the 40th Anniversary of Temple of Doom! Join me November 6 at 7:30 for a screening at The Movie Mill. I’ll introduce the film and after we will have a discussion about its technical achievements, its references to film history, and its problems of representation/otherness.

Bob Dylan released Oh Mercy, his 26th studio album, on this day in 1989. Produced by Daniel Lanois and recorded in New Orleans, it’s one of my favorite albums of his. Here’s the music video for “Most of the Time,” which came out in 1990.

Our annual team picture at the UNM 1949 datum at the base of the HSIBJ cliff. We want to thank our team of students from the UofL, CFS, and elsewhere, our guest excavators, guest lecturers, the Elders who participated, the Interpretive Centre staff, the RAM crew; and Ernie!

In the final phase of our field school, now doing lab work, teaching the students how to analyze what we’ve found this season - but relocated to the Rockies. A couple of excited Californians not deterred by the snow yesterday!

After years of searching, on the backfill day, this team found Barney Reeves’s half axle. Proof previous season teams - this really exists!

Last day digging on site - and of course the rain did not make it easy. But it was a great team this year at Head-Smashed-In! @ulethbridge @ulethbridgeartsci

I, of course, have my Yankees suck shirt. Our student from New York, however, was tricked by his new “friends” into buying a Flames shirt not realizing the series being played right now.

The Interpretive Centre at Head-Smashed-In is a great place for a faunal lecture, with a pretty good reference source. And the red kerchief crew seems keen. @ulethbridge @ulethbridgeartsci
