March 31. "Brazil" (Brew and View night). Had he possessed the power to do so, Terry Gilliam would have consigned all bureaucrats to hell. Instead, in 1985 he made "Brazil," an eye-popping satire of bureaucratic, totalitarian government that reminds many of Orwell's "1984" -- without Big Brother. Gilliam honed his satiric talent as a member of the Monty Python troupe.
Spring Guelcher Films will be shown Wednesdays at 2:15 and 7:15 p.m. at Mercyhurst College's Mary D'Angelo Center. Tickets are $6, $5 for seniors and students, free for Mercyhurst students with ID.

The 7-mile Pilgrimage for Peace stops at sites along the way for contemporary “Stations” that address the suffering in the world today—suffering caused by war, violence and other social inequities.
The walk is in done in silence. The Pilgrimage arrives at the Mount for a simple, silent lunch followed by the final station that is incorporated into the 3:00 pm service in the Mount chapel.
For the past six years, the Stations have been compiled by Oblates of Mount St. Benedict Monastery.

Lois Gibbs, environmental activist, to speak at SUNY Fredonia, Thursday April 22
Lois Gibbs, founder of the Center for Health, Environment and Justice, is the keynote speaker for SUNY Fredonia's 2009-2010 Convocation theme, "Public Service: Challenges and Opportunities." She will speak at SUNY Fredonia's Rosch Recital Hall on Thursday April 22 at 2:30 pm.
Lois Gibbs has been recognized extensively for her critical role in the grassroots environmental justice movement. Her involvement in environmental causes began in 1978 when she discovered that her 7-year-old son's elementary school in Niagara Falls, New York was built on a toxic waste dump. Subsequent investigation revealed that her entire neighborhood, Love Canal, had been built on top of this dump. With no prior experience in community activism, Gibbs organized her neighbors and formed the Love Canal Homeowners Association.

Wildlife filmmaker Rebecca Hosking investigates how to transform her family's farm in Devon into a low energy farm for the future, and discovers that nature holds the key.
With her father close to retirement, Rebecca returns to her family's wildlife-friendly farm in Devon, to become the next generation to farm the land. But last year's high fuel prices were a wake-up call for Rebecca. Realising that all food production in the UK is completely dependent on abundant cheap fossil fuel, particularly oil, she sets out to discover just how secure this oil supply is.
Alarmed by the answers, she explores ways of farming without using fossil fuel. With the help of pioneering farmers and growers, Rebecca learns that it is actually nature that holds the key to farming in a low-energy future
