300

Here is a review by an ancient historian, who's not all that positive about the movie. In the last paragraph he mentions that 5% of Greece went to see 300 in the first ten days after its release! I'll hand out copies of the Herodotus.

Cumaean Sibyl

Here is Michelangelo's depiction of her, from his frescoed ceiling of the Sistine Chapel. Looks like she's been bulking up! One reason for the musculature is that Michelangelo used male models when depicting females, as was customary at the time. Do you think the fresco would be better had he used female models? Michelangelo is often admired for the physical presence and titanic energy in his depiction of the human body.
