Mad Men, if you have not seen, you have not seen anything

I thought that after 'The Godfather' (especially the first part), would not both virtuosity and perfection to recreate certain times . Tired of gimmicky or hyper-realistic film that overwhelms us today, I missed the glamorous beauty of old films from the golden age of Hollywood. Until the 'box silly 'gave birth to a wonderful creature called Mad Men.

Just pull up the first chapters, the series becomes demanding. I confess it took me catch you the storyline, but once on the train, it is impossible to get off of it, not because we can, but because they wanted to. Beginning to see, so I brought that characteristic whiff of old paper from the small library of my uncles, where I spent hours reviewing the old Readers Digest collection , when the magazine was much substance and not the pathetic collection of articles summary it is today. That whole retro aesthetic of airline advertising, automobiles and beverages that recreated its inside pages, by the grace of the creators of the series, beautifully brought to life today.

But what is Mad Men?, Is it an ad or spot that never ends about men engaged in a war whose most effective weapon is persuasion or rather a place where, as they say, the truth lie?
a scene, how not advertising, which airs daily executive powers ambitious and eager for glory, mixed in a cocktail of variegated situations that reflect the American society of those turbulent years of the 60, when surfaced the struggle for civil rights the disadvantage of women, the scenes of the Cold War, etc.

Nobody afraid if you will not hear any shooting, yes, too much alcohol will run fine and look much smoke up in the doctor's office. See smoking does have the attractive enough to think, especially the elegant and beautiful Rachel Menken, a punishment that did not give more rope to the character, I loved that he had a distinguished air, anyway.

Getting into the intricacies of the plot, its refined and most intelligent dialogue requires commitment and a viewer's cultural background. The interesting thing about the series and its greatest asset, apart from its aesthetic careful, is that they take the trouble, although it seems superfluous to fully develop the characters, providing them with complexity, credibility and behavior in line with the reality of time. hopefully not superheroes or supervillains, just flesh and bone with his virtues, misery and ambiguities. That said, it is impossible not to want to put on his shiny shoes of Don Draper , that fucking ladies man who always has an answer for everything, but at heart he is a being haunted by his dark past and vulnerable as a child despite all phlegmatic composure that spreads throughout the episodes. Magnificently embodied by an unknown actor, if I had the good fortune to appear often on the big screen, would surely blanch at the very Clooney.

Betty Draper, the wife would either have to brag to your friends. A beautiful blonde to Grace Kelly, but with the complex daddy's girl who has everything, nevertheless dissatisfied and unhappy as the crown of a pine, a depressive haunting drama of Ibsen.

Peggy Olson, the ever-earnest Peggy, the subject of discussion among men, certainly envious of your talent and that rises to moments of consciousness or mirror Don Draper. It is certainly one of the key characters throughout the series.

Giving much can be uncovered Pete Campbell, an arrogant brat ambition, able to break all the rules and conventions as long climb to positions of privilege.

call attention, those hobbies Bert Cooper, a character beloved patriarchal air but displayed little, it gave a lack of respect and tradition firm Sterling Cooper, the theater of war operations of egos and advertising slogans.

Providing plenty of material, there is the other boss, Roger Sterling , which does not seem to do anything except tell jokes and anecdotes from World War II and has fortunate to enjoy the prize which is the chief secretaries stunning. What can we say about Joan Holloway and her red dress, which has gaping salivating Sterling and the other boys. For that, salt and pepper to the whole story.

Having seen , including those long silences that speak for themselves and frequent shadows that 'light' throughout the series, it is impossible not so much awe and wonder for neatness, thoroughness and consistency historical argument. And that splendid picture depicting as they can be a time of elegance, cars with fins, satin dresses, hair parted, fine hats and coats, made to witness the golden years a time that was possible, until the arrival of hippies and screwed everything.

How Long Will An Open Bottle Of Glenlivet Last?

De la joie de vivre, processions and other naive

No, not the Christ of Rio de Janeiro
About Holy Week processions in a week, clusters of palm and forced fasting (in spirits, meat rather than red), because the real fast no one believes.

probably in Seville, the devotees and bearers (including celebrities) are well prepared to carry the heavy urns of the brotherhoods have never seen such devotion as the Seville. Here, the bearers have invented a pompous name: "Knights of the Holy Sepulchre" have to see how seriously they take, including an acquaintance of mine.

local Archbishop (now old man), followed by his congregation has taken the walk to the Cerro San Pedro, proposed site of the Cristo de la Concordia, giant mole concrete which monitors the city of Cochabamba. On the other hand, there are those who choose it as penance up the thousand and one steps that can be opened (each named after a donor) of the same hill. Are seen as gourmets the "cochalas" a bit of exercise will come from manual including gym and blessing.

Madrid is raining and it is business as usual, I think. I had never seen the Madrid players, celebrate with so much euphoria, consciously or not that they missed the league and probably in anticipation that they will not win the tenth "romaine" have been intoxicated with emotion Cup king, then, no lie, this "dance I removed it."

For me, I danced it removed, but the hangover from the last wedding I went to last me a thousand hours and, because I have to confess that I like weddings, while not the mine, of course. Yes, she looks at me disapprovingly and just shrug my shoulders and I stand to say " Just kiss and say goodbye " , as the song that's Manhattans.

Here, stands the sky azulísimo the emerging winter. This is the time of the best fruit from South American winter: oranges, tangerines, limes, avocados, custard apples. I tried English avocados but not equal to the Americans, not nearly ... yes, English orange is much higher.


already made me a supply of avocados, the largest and most luscious I've ever seen. One of these days, there will be time to try at home tacos with scrambled eggs and guacamole beef seasoned with a touch of cilantro, ah how I feel Pavlovian dog! to feel the spirit of this grass.

The impromptu photo of still life that is on my desk. The good news is that I've eaten all by myself. Have you tried the breakfast, freshly squeezed orange juice, diced avocado, cheese and toast with a very red Coffee and dessert a few mandarin fragrance?. Ah priceless! ... What else I can say to cure the boredom of a long holiday? ... Bon appetit.

Edwards Syndrome Family Pedigree

About Marilyn , egocentric and other clichés do envy me

A German friend complained that I did not understand why I liked both Marilyn Monroe and that is not explained his reasons I dislike, I sensed that simply did not like their actions. To settle the issue in an Olympics, I replied, "you do not like Marilyn is great because you are a woman and do not understand" said it well, passing without haste or sexist macho.

not missing a contemporary of mine who bring up my lack of sympathy for the 'divas' Today, except for Johansson and disguised in some other time a character. And of course, puzzled wonder what makes a thirty pining for these women like Monroe the Tierney, the Hayworth and others when some have aged poorly and others have already passed away. Come on, out there are the Aniston, the Jolie the Jovovich or Weisz, so perfect, so young and lusty, and appearing as daily, not in black and white but in Technicolor. Nein, step of the contemporary star system as quickly as can my eyes deceived.

Marilyn, and in his brief appearances in 'The Asphalt Jungle' and 'Eve ' , exuded such a powerful animal magnetism that characterized with 'The Seven Year Itch' and ' Some Like It Hot', definitely the film rose to Olympus. Yes, I know, almost all his films were a romantic comedy, which portrays the typical beautiful and fragile woman with clueless air, which helped establish the stereotype of blonde fatal but naive, but time does nothing to enhance his legend in spite of that iconic image of the skirt up, her pictures up in the soup and the ugly pop-art portraits Warhol.

Surfing around on the Internet, she discovered recently and was so brilliant with the lights and cameras, in the shadows and solitude of room was a deeply unfortunate and orphan of affection. Among his scattered notes, poems and reflections hid a person with artistic sensibility, melancholy and fatalistic, as glimpsed these statements to a reporter "I've been thinking about writing my will. I could not tell you why, but I have it between the eyes. It makes me feel a little sinister. I always believed that this is done when you are old or sick, but people tell me that everyone should have something to stop making the will. " If that is a bit of a fool, God come and say so.

And though the Knights the states prefer blondes as one of his famous movies, I've always preferred brunettes, however, wondered if she had not died tragically young, and now might be an aging star come down as Liz Taylor in his last years, will continue to fascinate me as many?, and it's hard to say that the divas with that aura of life miserable in the prime of their careers, have the attraction that gives unparalleled reach the myth.

Nothing, for those nostalgic for the movie, for those Orphans of pure beauty, we always stay Paris, forgiveness, Norma Jeane Mortenson .

Outdoor Public Washroom Gay

Argentine football

The tradition, which for more than a century, proponents of a newly formed team, tired of the 'burden' of rival teams, headed Buenos Aires port on the Rio de la Plata to choose new colors, chance flag waved there Celadon of a Swedish vessel, ineffable designs of fate, today these colors identify the team more popular in Argentina.

History says that the 'pirates' British tried to seize Buenos Aires with cannon and sword tip. They failed. A century later, they brought a new weapon, a leather ball. And were imposed at the point of enthusiasm as well as the collective imagination permeate their English names: Racing Club, River Plate, Newell's, Banfield, Boca Juniors, All Boys . Whims of fate and a series of historical battles have been fed into the Argentinean hearts, feelings. As a result, they love the ball like no English but hate to His Majesty and their eligibility.

But, putting aside their rivalry, no more loving and devoted people of the game on this continent that the Argentine people, except the English on his. Some may wonder what Brazil what, there but not as much fervor: the Brazilian masters like anyone's game, but the Argentine feels like no other.

An Argentine lives between a barbecue, a dunk and a football game. Consciously or not that life is nothing but a succession of emotions, experiences and feelings, has been named their stadiums with evocative names: 'El Monumental', 'La Bombonera', 'The New Gasometer', 'Cylinder', 'The Fort', 'The Forest'.

The land of Argentina, has not only produced tangos, sambas sweet milk and is also able to cheer the football with the impudence of a 'dirty face' or the overwhelming momentum of a 'killer'. The people deep, rich in football folklore, is perhaps the most imaginative of these latitudes, especially when you have to make fun of opponents: but history always plays a whim, which sometimes comes as a pejorative, in time becomes a source of pride for the fans affected: 'rogues',' the lepers', 'hens',' red bugs', 'boring', 'crows'. But always will be remembered, at least in mine, evoking more impossible, graphics and sound as the 'Pincharrata' , will there be more memorable nickname, corrosive and also verbally exquisite?

On the other hand, if you've heard such strange names like these: Gimnasia y Esgrima de La Plata, Gimnasia y Tiro de Salta, JUJ Gymnastics uy, Tiro Federal de Rosario , even if they seem, are football teams, why the names?, God knows, ask an Argentinean.

So Argentine football, pure heart, tradition and legend. Fervor that borders on religion many times. Loyalty to the colors, chest in the most hard, even when the economy goes bad, the stadiums are rarely empty.

Unlike the major European leagues where teams prevail powerful guy that a team wins a title, is in itself a miracle, a sports accident. Which does not occur in these latitudes, where large that go a long in the doldrums and the championship can be for any of the small fish, which again and again is 'morfa' a large, even at home.

Any Sunday, in another part of the planet nobody would understand football as a mother heard her son Argentina: 'Do not ask me old, you see Leprosy plays today against the Hound. "

The violence in their stadiums, it is another thing. Unfortunately appellant.

Spanish Wedding Templates

The opium of the soul music as a weapon of mass seduction or

long ago, when a local television channel, passing at the time of the small desktop classical films, taken from the Japanese channel NHK. I was a boy, but did not need musical knowledge to enjoy it all. The bucolic images accompanying the music of each composer and briefly explained the subtitles simultaneously (the Japanese) the motivations, inspirations and life of each one of them. Contemplating those landscapes and scenes of old European cities like Prague, Vienna and Budapest, had a very nostalgic look you wanted that never ends.

Who sounds like a cliché-but-not felt empathy or impulse to join the rebel cause of William Wallace in the movie 'Heart Valiente ', challenging the English oppression, when he heard the cry of bagpipes patriotic recreating the loneliness and sadness of the Scottish Highlands. Or the exquisite soundtrack of Nino Rotta, who instilled a spirit reminiscent of the masterpiece of Francis Ford Coppola, transporting privileged witnesses to the dreams of the Italian deep. Yes, the music's fault that I keep envisioning over and over again the story of the Corleone with the assiduity of a devotee who goes to church.

So wildest and hidden soul can be overcome if you hear the chords of a melody. It is no accident Jesuit missions to flourish in tropical South America, using seduction as a weapon of musical road in the difficult task of evangelizing the land. That work continues today, is reflected in the knowledge of the Guarani descendants still retain the ability to build violins and other instruments and better yet, have made real baroque orchestras, which have recently led his music, including the Old World.

If something is music, is the extraordinary power of spiritual disarmament, the seductive power of even the coldest spirits that fill an auditorium. How, the real applause from an audience that listens to a translator even debutante, with delicacy and skill sing a song without much consideration for the genre? Or mass hysteria of a stage at a rock concert?

has repeatedly said that the man is unable to resist and from the womb to the powerful influence of this art. Given his influence stop our trials, our miseries will become more bearable, or transport us to times or situations never experienced vague or diffuse connotancia sort spiritual numbness.

The music also has that power, sometimes dangerous and revive national feeling, that of highlighting the social, cultural and economic society. Even to be poorly used as propaganda by certain schemes. See the Wagner case, until now taboo in certain circles, as if the composer could have anticipated the terrible use of their work.

Humanity has many examples of the brutality inherent throughout history. For millennia of violence and mutual destruction for all its pettiness, the man was also capable of sensitizing all around him. The art of Orpheus is perhaps alongside other art forms, the only certainty 'palpable' and promising that the man, despite everything, does not live in vain.

Blues Traveler or music without time


Who has not heard this name, I vaguely remember a blues band, perhaps the name of a compilation album, a musical tour or something similar.
Surely, one who hates the sound will be deafening, the environment and all the paraphernalia collective hysteria large concerts, mostly rock, where one hoarse shouting or singing in choir, but the next day he paid the throat.
Who has not wanted to sit quietly at the table of a great pub or café concert , illuminated by dim amber lamps, simulating an atmosphere of jazz or blues sessions, with all the bias and attentive ear to appreciate the virtuosity of the live sessions. There
giant on stage we see a man of broad humanity moving to the sound of his energetic harmonica, giving his best, alternating singing with their own priceless instrument and accompanied by excellent musicians, very professional to complement the pace to improvise. If there is anything that winks to other genres without seeming much, that is Blues Traveler.
hear the exquisite sound of this band and I am unable to define and better yet, I can not locate it in any time in history, is like music of all life, you've been waiting forever, to the delight of the soul. Just start their chords and I feel transported to a tranquil setting of a pub, ready to savor their nostalgic tunes known to many genres and none of them at once. As if John Popper (vocals) and his friends meet in a coffee disparate ingredients: sadness and darkness of blues, depth and soft cadence of soul, warmth and naturalness of folk and the freshness and energy rock, all distilled into an essence that is unlike anything else, only themselves.
This band from New Jersey, has been playing since the late eighties, yet their popularity only limited to the circles of clubs and pubs in the cities of the east coast. Until the mid-nineties, met commercial success, but always within the American field. Perhaps his best albums are "Four " (1994) and "Straight on Till Morning" (1997), bringing together the best songs or big hits.
Singles like " Carolina Blues," "Canadian Rose" "Most Precarious" "But Anyway", "100 Years", "Run-around" are songs that can not be indifferent to any, and of course her biggest hit " Hook", which is indescribable fusion of John Popper and his harmonica in a melody pure, boundless and filled with emotion.
Some would disagree, more friends with strong rhythms, contemporary, flee from this band like the plague, because, admittedly, is not for everyone, not intended to be. While falling into the sin of being uneducated or bum, I do not remember having heard something, and of course, always will be accompanying me on this unsafe to walk that is life.
