Knitted Baby Boots With Sheep Skin Bottom

Black swan

Our culture of Judeo-Christian tradition is marked by the biblical idea of \u200b\u200bgood and evil, by the antagonism between the two forces, and also breathed and belief formed through the media that subjugate our daily lives that This can be explained in terms of white and black, Coca Cola and Pepsi, PSOE and PP, Real Madrid and Barca, completely ignoring the essential gray palette absolutely essential to understand the world around us. Robert Louis Stevenson in his immortal classic The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr.Hyde told us " every day, and with the help of two aspects of my understanding, the moral and intellectual, I got closer to the truth whose partial discovery has led me to this terrible wreck and that is that the man is not one, but two. I say two because my skills have not gone beyond this point. Others will follow, others will surpass me in knowledge, and I dare to predict that at last the man shall be held and recognized as a conglomerate of diverse personalities, dissenting and independent . "Stevenson told us that we were two in one, and even we could be many more. Arrojo-shyness, humor, seriousness, mercy, cruelty, arrogance, insecurity, all this and more we are depending on time and experiences we have lived.

Robert Louis Stevenson knew this, and also when Tchaikovsky wrote his legendary ballet Swan Lake . In it the author dives between love and magic to show the eternal struggle between good and evil, or what is different between the white swan and / or black we all are. In turn, the ballet, by its very nature is an art in which pain and perfection are inextricably linked, with the latter a result of the enormous sacrifice that is the first, an art, in short that has a lot of asceticism or medival even mysticism. Fingers calloused and worn, dislocated bones, sprained ankles, bodies pushed to the limit of its flexibility and strength, all to achieve perfection and beauty.



black Swan tells the story of a young dancer named Nina (Natalie Portman ), which has achieved the leading role in the representation of the Swan Lake to be make the company which is a part. His excellent technique makes it entirely suitable for the role of the white swan, but to turn his extreme naivety and childlike innocence and impede the interpretation of the role of the black swan. From there you must take a path of introspection and self-discovery, sponsored by the ballet director, Thomas Leroy ( Vincent Cassel), or in other words, learn to feel.





The excellent film of Darren Aronofsky metaballet is an exercise, at the crossroads of life and work, technical cold and warm feeling, and it mingles its director wisely reality and paranoia of the main character brilliantly played by Natalie Portman immeasurable , using paraphernalia own horror film in which we can see how each objects becomes a potential weapon: the broken mirrors, the nail files ...., turn the main character's own mother, played by Barbara Hershey fully exerts a repressive and utterly emasculating about their own daughter, who lives in a room surrounded by stuffed animals, old childhood friends who serve as guardians of the emotional prison where he lives. the author of Requiem for a Dream walks throughout the film on a thin wire as an expert tightrope walker would get ahead of getting a very risky film brilliantly in the hands of any other filmmaker would have much less gifted fallen into the most absolute ridiculous.

passion, despair, pain, joy and excitement, a nightmarish absolutely fascinating journey through the psyche of man, which shows that indeed we are more than one, and that is if Robert Louis Stevenson and Tchaikovsky knew , Natalie Portman and Darren Aronofsky know too.

The fall of the world's own optimist


http://youtu.be/EyaUSXeiybo

There's no charity in you


And that surprises me


I guess I thought you were a golden idol


Cause I called you majesty


On the balustrade


You watched me hunt for tips I was obliged to pick up


From the passing trade

Hey, kids--look at this


It's the fall of the world's own optimist


I could get back up if you insist


But you'll have to ask politely


Cause the eggshells I've been treading


Couldn't spare me a beheading


And I'll know I had it coming


From a caesar who was only slumming


Hey, kids--look at this


It's the fall of the world's own optimist


Well, I could have objections


Which you could override


But what's the point--we're only flogging the horse


When the horseman has up and died


Once I testified


And swore I'd never leave a stone unturned--


I bet you're really glad that I lied


Hey, kids--look at this


It's the fall of the world's own optimist


I could get back up if you insist


But you'll have to ask politely


Cause the eggshells I've been treading


Couldn't spare me a beheading


And I'll know I had it coming


From a caesar who was only slumming


Hey, kids--look at this


It's the fall of the world's own optimist

Hey, kids--look at this


It's the fall of the world's own optimist


I Could get back up if you Insist


But you'll Have to ask politely


Yes, you 'll Have to ask politely


Yes, you'll Have to ask

Down Payment On Braces

Carlos Trillo (1943-2011)

Sometimes an author's death catches us completely unawares, and its loss can only make us feel rage and despair, and more if it's someone relatively young and was active and at the foot of the canyon. In addition, the traumatic loss can lead us to realize the many debts we have with that artist, and while it can generate a minimum of guilt. That was my reaction when I discovered yesterday morning that the great Carlos Trillo, probably the most important writer of the comic story with Argentina Hector Oesterheld Germain, if we exclude (and there is no reason for it) to Paraguayan Robin Wood, one of the most important writers cartoon world, died unexpectedly at the age of 68 during the last weekend while he was traveling in Europe with his wife.
undoubtedly a big one can work with larger, and this could be the perfect summary of the career of Carlos Trillo , who has worked with some of the best artists of the English-speaking world as may be their compatriots Alberto Breccia ( One such Daneri ), Enrique Breccia ( Alvar Mayor, or the lyrical kaleidoscope of the human condition that is The Pilgrim of the stars ) , Horacio Altuna ( Charlie Moon, The little doors to Mr. Lopez, ...), Merdichevski Eduardo Risso ( I vampire ...), Mandrafina ( The Iguana , Spaghetti Brothers ...) or our Jordi Bernet ( Clara night, Light and bold ...).


Now we have just discovered and / or rediscover the wonderful legacy he has left Carlos. Thank you very much for all teachers.

One Nipple Piercing Means

May 8: World Day of Red Cross Help us to help

Being part of the largest humanitarian movement in the world is to have the responsibility to act for the continuation of a mission, although some utopian, mission, doctrine and ideals of the Movement is to seek out a dream, that of Peace peace amongst all peoples.
"Proclamation National Societies of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies, the International Committee of Red Cross and International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent movement together constitute a global humanitarian whose mission is to prevent and alleviate all the circumstances, the human suffering, protect life and health and ensure respect for the human person, in particular in times of armed conflict and other emergencies, to try to prevent disease and promote health and social welfare, encouraging volunteer work and the availability of members of the Movement and a universal sense of solidarity towards all those in need of protection and assistance. "
STATUTE OF THE INTERNATIONAL RED CROSS AND RED CRESCENT
Origins of World Day Red Cross and Red Crescent
We must go back to 1922, shortly after the First World War ended. In the Czech Republic in t Slovakia - which were then a single state, Czechoslovakia, the National Society proclaimed a truce for three days at Easter, in order to promote peace. An eminent political figure of the time summed up perfectly the aspirations that led to this initiative: "Our Red Cross wants to prevent diseases to avoid having to cure them, you also prepare our society to prevent wars, instead of having to bear its serious consequences. We all know how important the moral energy that creates and propagates the Red Cross to all sectors of the population. If the action that unfolds each year could reach the whole world, what major work in favor of peace could do! "Is not it a foreshadowing of what would later become the World Day of Red Cross and Red Crescent? Unfortunately, while this initiative - known as the Red Cross Truce "- had a great impact among the public, was greeted with skepticism by the leaders of National Societies. Therefore, the XIV International Conference of the Red Cross set up an international commission to study the Cross Truce Red. This body, which presented the results of its deliberations to the XV International Conference held in Tokyo in 1934, noted in his report "... that approving the principle of the Truce and considered it appropriate to generalize their application, noting, in doing so, the specific idiosyncrasies of each region. "It was not until 1946, long after the end of the Second World War to implement the proposal Tokyo. In fact, during the fourteenth session of the Governing Council of the League of Red Cross Societies, which would later be called General Assembly of the League of Red Cross and Red Crescent, was entrusted to that body that "... explore the possibility of declaring an international day of the Red Cross, held on the same date by all National Societies. " Two years later, in 1948, with the approval of the Executive Committee of the then League is held for the first time worldwide the Red Cross Day on May 8, the anniversary of the birth of Red Cross founder Henry Dunant. Day change several times to appeal to become the 1984 World Day of Red Cross and Red Crescent. "
