<description><![CDATA[The world would not have been right if I didn&#8217;t make a mention of Bill Watterson.  Born on]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The world would not have been right if I didn't make a mention of Bill Watterson.  Born on July 5, 1958, Watterson is another one of those guys that some of you might wonder about, at least until I mention his brain-child.  It's my favorite comic strip of all time...<em>Calvin and Hobbes</em>.  The strip ran from November of 1985 until the last day of 1995.</p>
<p>I absolutely love <em>Calvin and Hobbes</em>.  I sit down and re-read the strips and laugh and laugh...and laugh some more.  Watterson drew on some of his own childhood experiences to create Calvin, a precocious little boy with a colossal imagination who terrorized his parents, his teacher Ms. Wormwood, his babysitter Rosalyn, and the little neighbor girl Susie Derkins.  Calvin's constant companion was Hobbes, a stuffed tiger that was alive only to Calvin.</p>
<p>Calvin often struggled with issues like death, the meaning of life, God, commercialism, and modern materialism, and Hobbes was usually there with some response that should have (but often didn't) provided perspective and resolution to Calvin.  The star of the strip possessed a huge vocabulary, but couldn't be bothered to do the simplest of homework assignments.  He spent most school-time hours day-dreaming that he was Spaceman Spiff, saving the galaxies in his spaceship, or Stupendous Man.</p>
<p>I think the comic strip was outrageously funny, and picking my favorites out of 10 years of materials is pretty difficult.  He and Hobbes play this hysterical make-the-rules-as-you-go game called Calvinball.  His creation of a cardboard-box Transmogrifier was hilarious.  But I think my favorite strips involved Calvin eating bowls of Chocolate Frosted Sugar Bombs and the time when he ordered a beanie with a little propreller that he thought would make him fly.</p>
<p><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Watterson" target="_blank">Watterson</a> created a winner with <em><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calvin_and_Hobbes" target="_blank">Calvin and Hobbes</a></em>, and the numerous awards he won prove it.  He steadfastly refused to merchandize the characters, believing that slapping them on a lunchbox or a T-shirt or creating movies about them destroyed the purity of the strip.  So the comic strip is all we have.  But as far as I'm concerned, the comic strip is all we need.</p>
<p>Happy Birthday, Bill Watterson!!</p>
<p><em>Recommended Reading: Find any of the numerous Calvin and Hobbes comic strip books at your local bookstore.  Better yet, get the <a href="http://search.barnesandnoble.com/The-Complete-Calvin-and-Hobbes/Bill-Watterson/e/9780740748479/?itm=6" target="_blank">complete anthology</a>...I received it as a gift and it's awesome.</em></p>

<description><![CDATA[In Part 2 of the Gilgamesh Epic, Gilgamesh says this:
Where is the man who can clamber to heaven? On]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In Part 2 of the <em>Gilgamesh Epic</em>, Gilgamesh says this:</p>
<blockquote><p>Where is the man who can clamber to heaven? Only the gods live for ever with glorious Shamash, but as for us men, our days are numbered, our occupations are a breath of wind.</p></blockquote>
<p>In other words, human life is impermanent and what we work to build is impermanent.</p>
<p>So what should we do with ourselves?</p>
<p>Gilgamesh takes a stab at an answer: In spite of impermanence, live life with a large, ambitious goal, such as fighting the forest monster Humbaba. Take risks, and if you fail, at least for awhile your name will endure on the lips of others:</p>
<blockquote><p>[I]f I fail I leave behind me a name that endures; men will say of me, 'Gilgamesh has fallen in fight with ferocious Humbaba.'</p></blockquote>
<p>Gilgamesh's answer recalls the philosopher Hanna Arendt's observation, in her book <em>The Human Condition</em> (1958), that the pre-socratic Greeks too saw immortality in these terms:</p>
<blockquote><p>The task and potential greatness of mortals lie in their ability to produce things---works and deeds and words---which would deserve to be and, at least to a degree, are at home in everlastingness, so that through them mortals could find their place in a cosmos where everything is immortal except themselves. (19)</p></blockquote>
<p>In short, one solution to the problem of mortality is to plug oneself into the divine, or the eternal circle of nature, by building a pyramid or writing lasting sonnets, as Shakespeare has done, or conquering an archetypal monster, such as Humbaba, as Gilgamesh and Enkidu set out to do. </p>
<p>Arendt continues:</p>
<blockquote><p>The distinction between man and animal runs right through the human species itself: only the best (<em>aristoi</em>), who constantly prove themselves to be the best (<em>aristeuein</em>, a verb for which there is no equivelent in any other language) and who 'prefer immortal fame to mortal things,' are really human; the others, content with whatever pleasures nature will yield them, live and die like animals. (19)</p></blockquote>
<p>I hear in this position, apparently shared by Gilgamesh and the pre-socratic Greeks, Nietzsche's Apollonian Ubermensch ("Superman"), who embraces eternal recurrence because he has actually done something with his time on earth---he has been a creator, taken risks, and has no regrets, and would live life the same way over again. Here's Nietzsche (quoted in <em>Pessimism</em>, 2006, pg. 188 by Joshua Dienstag):</p>
<blockquote><p>My new way to 'yes.' My new version of pessimism as a voluntary quest for fearful and questionable aspects of beings. . . . A pessimist such as that could in that way lead to a Dionysian yes-saying to the world as it is; as a wish for its absolute return and eternity . . .</p></blockquote>
<p>I also hear in Gilgamesh's call for quest in the face of human impermanence the restlessness of Alfred Lord Tennyson's Ulysses, who is not content to sit around his palace, even in old age, but is determined to launch forth into new adventures:</p>
<blockquote><p>It little profits an idle king,</p>
<p>By this still hearth, among these barren crags,</p>
<p>Matched with an aged wife, I mete and dole</p>
<p>Unequal laws unto a savage race,</p>
<p>That hoard, and sleep, and feed, and know not me.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I cannot rest from travel: I will drink</p>
<p>Life to the lees . . .</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Death closes all: but something ere the end,</p>
<p>Some work of noble note, may yet be done,</p>
<p>Not unbecoming men that strove with Gods.</p></blockquote>
<p>Like Gilgamesh, who is not content to hang around the city of Uruk with Enkidu, but must seek out a risky new adventure that will test the extremities of his being, so Tennyson's Ulysses must <em>move</em>.</p>
<p>I also think of Charles Darwin, whose father discouraged his world travel. But Darwin did not heed his father's safe and sensible advice, but took great risks with his life out on the edge of discovery, and brought something new, and apparently permanent, into the world: his great book, <em>The Origin of Species</em>.</p>
<p>In this sense, Gilgamesh and Enkidu are also Nietzschean heroes initiating, as it were, the beginnings of World Literature with a quest after Humbaba, and having a kind of immortality by the preservation of their names and story.</p>
<p>But they still died.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Verdana;"><span> </span><strong>Director</strong>: Don Siegel</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Verdana;"><span> </span><strong>Cast</strong>: Eli Wallach, Robert Keith, Richard Jaeckel</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center;margin:0;">
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Verdana;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Verdana;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Verdana;"><span> </span>Before moving on to the “A” list and making classic actions films like, Charley Varrick, Madigan, and being a mentor to a fledging director named Clint Eastwood,<span> </span>Don Siegel was a “B” film director. He made classic “B” films like <em>Riot in Cell Block 11, Baby Face<span> </span>Nelson, The Killers</em>, and a little science fiction classic called <em>Invasion of the Body Snatchers</em>. <em>The Lineup</em> fits neatly into the “B” category. <span> </span><span> </span>Based on a TV series that ran for six years back in the 1950’s <em>The Lineup</em> is an action packed thriller. The TV show, like the movie, was filmed on the streets of San Francisco and was a precursor to latter San Francisco cop shows like The<em> Streets of San Francisco</em>. The show starred Warren Anderson as Detective Ben Guthrie and Marshall Reed as Inspector Fred Asher, both, recreating their roles in the movie, though Reed’s role is small in the movie. According to his autobiography, “A Siegel Film” he also directed the pilot for the TV show.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Verdana;"><span> </span>A porter tosses a disembarking ship passenger’s luggage through the open window of a waiting taxi. The taxi quickly speeds of f along the San Francisco docks crashing into a truck before hitting a police officer. Before dying, the cop shoots the cab driver. <span> </span>All this happens before the opening credits role in this early Don Siegel action thriller. After the credits finish, two police inspectors Ben Guthrie (Warren Anderson) and Al Quine (Emile Meyer) arrive to investigate the scene. They find a gun and a syringe lying next to the dead body.<span> </span>The police confiscate the stolen luggage and back at the station, find a hollow Chinese sculpture stuffed with a bag of pure heroin. <span> </span>The police conclude the local mob is using innocent unsuspecting businessmen and tourists to smuggle heroin into the country.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Verdana;"><span> </span><span> </span>To ensure safe delivery of the remaining smuggled drugs, the mob brings in Dancer (Eli Wallach), a psychotic crazed killer, and his partner and mentor, Julian (Robert Keith) from Miami, to retrieve the remaining three heroin packages. The first two jobs go smoothly, at least for Dancer, though not so well for the two carriers.<span> </span>The third pickup turns out to be more of a problem. It involves a mother and a young daughter who have come to San Francisco in hopes of reconciling with their husband/father. The package of heroin is hidden inside a Chinese doll the young girl’s mother purchased for her in Hong Kong. While on the ship, the little girl found the package and used it to powder the doll’s face. By the time they were stateside the heroin was all gone. Dancer, ever trigger-happy is ready to shoot the two however Julian, the more level headed of the two, explains that their employer may not understand or believe what has really happened here. He may think they are trying to cheat him and subsequently he and Dancer could become the hunted instead of the hunters. They decide to forcible bring the mother and child to “The Man” to help them explain what happened.<span> </span>They meet at an ice skating rink, which was originally the location for the final drop off for the exchange of heroin and money. Unfortunately, The Man does not understand.<span> </span>Wheelchair bound, he sits there as Dancer explains what happened. Finally, he says, “You’re dead.”<span> </span>Dancer continues trying to explain but “The Man” tells him “No one has ever seen me. You’re dead!” Enraged, out of control Dancer pushes the wheelchair bound drug lord off the balcony of the ice skating rink plunging to his death…on ice, a scene reminiscent of “Kiss of Death with Richard Widmark. In the meantime, the police have been following Dancer’s deadly trail and slowly have been closing in on him and Julian.<span> </span>The film ends with an exciting car chase through the streets and highways of San Francisco cumulating a thrilling and deadly finish. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Verdana;"><span> </span>Siegel moves smoothly back and forth between the police investigation scenes and the criminals. The police scenes are standard 1950’s TV fare, flatly filmed and rather dull. The two police inspectors seem a little too old for the job and very Jack Webb like in their roles. Much better and holding up well are the crime scenes where most of the action is. Credit this to Siegel who started out doing montage sequences at Warner Brothers. Acting honors go to Eli Wallach, Robert Keith and Richard Jaeckel who are all very good in their roles as Dancer, Julian, who seems to have a disdain for women, and MacLain, their professional getaway driver, with a drinking problem, who in the end is the reason they get trapped. However, it is Wallach who is the stand out as Dancer, an unrefined, short-tempered psychopathic killer.<span> </span><em>The Lineup</em> was only his second film. He first appeared as the Italian husband in the Elia Kazan/Tennessee Williams film <em>Baby Doll.</em><span> </span>Wallach would go on to have a great career and today is best remembered for his roles as Calvera the Mexican bandit in <em>The Magnificent Seven</em> and Tuco in <em>The Good, The Bad and The Ugly</em>.<span> </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Verdana;"><span> </span>Shot on location, historic scenes of San Francisco are plentiful. Siegel would return to San Francisco some thirteen years or so later with a little film called <em>Dirty Harry</em>. Though many of his films are or have been available on home video, some important ones remain unavailable.<span> </span><em>Baby Face Nelson, Riot in Cell Block 11, Crime in the Streets </em>are among some of his best and among the missing in the home video market.<span> </span>Writer Stirling Silliphant, best known <em>for The Poseidon Adventure</em>, <em>In the Heat of the Night </em>and<em> The Towering Inferno</em>, wrote the screenplay.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-size:x-small;"> </span></span></p>

<description><![CDATA[Hoje vou fazer do escrete o meu numeroso personagem da semana. Os jogadores já partiram e o Brasil ]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hoje vou fazer do escrete o meu numeroso personagem da semana. Os jogadores já partiram e o Brasil vacila entre o pessimismo mais obtuso e a esperança mais frenética. Nas esquinas, nos botecos, por toda parte, há quem esbraveje: - "O Brasil não vai nem se classificar!". E, aqui, eu pergunto: - não será esta atitude negativa o disfarce de um otimismo inconfesso e envergonhado?</p>
<p>Eis a verdade, amigos: - desde 50 que o nosso futebol tem pudor de acreditar em si mesmo. A derrota frente aos uruguaios, na última batalha, ainda faz sofrer, na cara e na alma, qualquer brasileiro. Foi uma humilhação nacional que nada, absolutamente nada, pode curar. Dizem que tudo passa, mas eu vos digo: menos a dor-de-cotovelo que nos ficou dos 2 x 1. E custa crer que um escore tão pequeno possa causar uma dor tão grande. O tempo em vão sobre a derrota. Dir-se-ia que foi ontem, e não há oito anos, que, aos berros, Obdulio arrancou, de nós, o título. Eu disse "arrancou" como poderia dizer: - "extraiu" de nós o título como se fosse um dente.</p>
<p>E, hoje, se negamos o escrete de 58, não tenhamos dúvidas: - é ainda a frustração de 50 que funciona. Gostaríamos talvez de acreditar na seleção. Mas o que nos trava é o seguinte: - o pânico de uma nova e irremediável desilusão. E guardamos, para nós mesmos, qualquer esperança. Só imagino uma coisa: - se o Brasil vence na Suécia, e volta campeão do mundo! Ah, a fé que escondemos, a fé que negamos, rebentaria todas as comportas e 60 milhões de brasileiros iam acabar no hospício.</p>
<p>Mas vejamos: - o escrete brasileiro tem, realmente, possibilidades concretas? Eu poderia responder, simplesmente, "não". Mas eis a verdade: - eu acredito no brasileiro, e pior do que isso: - sou de um patriotismo inatual e agressivo, digno de um granadeiro bigodudo. Tenho visto jogadores de outros países, inclusive os ex-fabulosos húngaros, que apanharam, aqui, do aspirante-enxertado Flamengo. Pois bem: - não vi ninguém que se comparasse aos nossos. Fala-se num Puskas. Eu contra-argumento com um Ademir, um Didi, um Leônidas, um Jair, um Zizinho.</p>
<p>A pura, a santa verdade é a seguinte: - qualquer jogador brasileiro, quando se desamarra de suas inibições e se põe em estado de graça, é algo de único em matéria de fantasia, de improvisação, de invenção. Em suma: - temos dons em excesso. E só uma coisa nos atrapalha e, por vezes, invalida as nossas qualidades. Quero aludir ao que eu poderia chamar de "complexo de vira-latas". Estou a imaginar o espanto do leitor: - "O que vem a ser isso?". Eu explico.</p>
<p>Por "complexo de vira-latas" entendo eu a inferioridade em que o brasileiro se coloca, voluntariamente, em face do resto do mundo. Isto em todos os setores e, sobretudo, no futebol. Dizer que nós nos julgamos "os maiores" é uma cínica inverdade. Em Wembley, por que perdemos? Porque, diante do quadro inglês, louro e sardento, a equipe brasileira ganiu de humildade. Jamais foi tão evidente e, eu diria mesmo, espetacular o nosso vira-latismo. Na já citada vergonha de 50, éramos superiores aos adversários. Além disso, levávamos a vantagem do empate. Pois bem: - e perdemos da maneira mais abjeta. Por um motivo muito simples: - porque Obdulio nos tratou a pontapés, como se vira-latas fôssemos.</p>
<p>Eu vos digo: - o problema do escrete não é mais de futebol, nem de técnica, nem de tática. Absolutamente. É um problema de fé em si mesmo. O brasileiro precisa se convencer de que não é um vira-latas e que tem futebol para dar e vender, lá na Suécia. Uma vez que se convença disso, ponham-no para correr em campo e ele precisará de dez para segurar, como o chinês da anedota. Insisto: - para o escrete, ser ou não ser vira-latas, eis a questão.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://newsfut.files.wordpress.com/2008/06/brasil-1958.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-283" src="http://newsfut.wordpress.com/files/2008/06/brasil-1958.jpg" alt="brasil" width="454" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>Primeiramente peço desculpa pela ausência no blog, mas ando um pouco sem tempo. Mas vamos a o que interessa, muitas coisas ocorreram e vou tecer alguns comentários:</p>
<ul>
<li>No Vasco chegou ao fim a Era Eurico Miranda, após 41 anos no clube o ex-Presidente não tentou a reeleição e afirmou que chegou a hora de curtir o neto. Analisando bem sua passagem como Presidente não foi ruim, ganhou um Rio-São Paulo, dois Campeonatos Cariocas, dois Campeonatos Brasileiros, uma Copa Libertadores, duas vezes Vice-Campeão Mundial e isso em apenas dez anos. Mas a relação com a torcida já estava desgastada. Agora é esperar para ver o que fará Roberto Dinamite.</li>
<li>Tivemos também a vitória da Espanha na EURO-2008. Não posso comentar porque estava vendo o jogo do Mengão.</li>
<li>Na Itália, mais precisamente na Praça de São Pedro, o Papa Bento XVI recebia o Manto Sagrado Rubro-Negro.</li>
<li>E parece que a visita ao Papa deu sorte ao Mengão, o iluminado Obina marcou dois gols que colocaram o Flamengo na liderança isolada a dois pontos do segundo colocada. E também acabou com a invencibilidade do Sport em casa após 22 jogos.</li>
<li>Agora o mais importante é a comemoração dos 50 anos do primeiro título Mundial conquistado pela Seleção Brasileira. Foi em 29/06/1958 que o Brasil de Pelé, Garrincha, Didi e cia encantavam o Mundo. Seleção pela qual o Atleta do Século XX marcou seu primeiro gols em Copa do Mundo. Não podemos deixar de essa data passar em branco. 1958: o ano onde tudo começou. Que a seleção de hoje se inspire e possa continuar nossa saga vencedora. Parabéns a todos os campeões: <strong>Gilmar e Castilho</strong>(Goleiros), <strong>Djalma Santos, Nilton Santos, De Sordi e Oreco</strong> (Laterais), <strong>Mauro, Bellini, Orlando e Zózimo </strong>(Zagueiros),<strong> Didi, Zito, Dino e Moacir </strong>(Meias),<strong> Zagallo, Pepe, Vavá, Joel, Dida, Mazzola, Garrincha e Pelé</strong> (Atacantes)</li>
</ul>
<p>Trecho da coluna de Nelson na revista “Manchete Esportiva”:</p>
<p>“Pela primeira vez numa final de Copa do Mundo, um escrete vence de goleada, de banho. (…) Nenhum time levanta um campeonato mundial sem extraordinárias qualidades morais. De nada adiantará o futebol, se o homem não presta. <strong>Foi o triunfo do homem</strong>”.

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Dia de curtir a cria: o especial "<a href="http://www1.folha.uol.com.br/fsp/especial/inde29062008.htm" target="_blank">Há 50 anos somos campeões</a>" (para assinantes UOL ou Folha), sobre a conquista brasileira na Copa do Mundo da Suécia, em 58.</p>
<p>E a reportagem que envolveu pesquisa e muito tempo: "<a href="http://docs.google.com/Doc?id=dt7hq7t_18f85bqzhw" target="_blank">O herói mora ao lado</a>" (leia na íntegra), sobre o contador uruguaio Lorenzo J. Vilizio. Ele trabalhou na comissão organizadora daquele mundial e evitou que o time brasileiro fosse desclassificado ao numerar, aleatoriamente, nossos jogadores. Sem querer, ele "inventou" a camisa 10 de Pelé...</p>
<p>Ah, dá para ouvir na Folha Online <a href="http://www1.folha.uol.com.br/folha/podcasts/ult10065u415590.shtml" target="_blank">trechos das divertidas marchinhas</a> do disco "Brasil Campeão do Mundo", lançado no país no dia seguinte ao título. Outro saboroso detalhe multimídia: a rede pública de TV sueca SVT disponibilizou, teoricamente na íntegra, <a href="http://www.svt.se/content/1/c8/01/18/18/27/080628SVEBRAVM58.asx" target="_blank">sua transmissão daquela partida</a>, com narração e comentários no idioma original. </p>
<p>Bom domingo.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://cinemagia.wordpress.com/files/2008/06/orson_welles.jpg" align="right">Matéria de André Setaro, de Salvador (BA), para o Terra Magazine:</p>
<blockquote><p>Será possível que A marca da maldade (Touch of evil) já tenha feito meio século de existência? Sim, faz, neste ano em curso, cinqüenta anos, pois realizado em 1958. Trata-se de obra imprescindível para quem quiser compreender e entender o cinema contemporâneo (e há cópias em DVD nas melhores locadoras).</p>
<p>Orson Welles (numa interpretação inexcedível, obeso, desfigurado, para dar a impressão da configuração da maldade) é Hank Quinlan, policial de uma cidade da fronteira entre o México e os Estados Unidos, que tem o costume de fabricar as provas com as quais acusa os supostos culpados perseguidos. Um colega mexicano, Vargas (Charlton Heston, que mostra não ser apenas ator de épicos hollywoodianos, mas um ator de amplos recursos), que acaba de se casar com uma jovem americana, Suzie (Janet Leigh), vem a descobrir os arranjos de Quinlan e ameaça desmascará-lo. Com a ajuda de Grandi (Akim Tamiroff), um traficante local que serve à polícia com informações, Quinlan faz seqüestrar e drogar Suzie, matando logo em seguida seu cúmplice no quarto do hotel onde ela se encontra trancafiada. Uma sucessão de acontecimentos proporciona a um fiel subordinado de Quinlan, Menzies (Joseph Callea) a constatação de seu caráter e acaba ajudando Vargas no total desmascaramento de Quinlan.</p></blockquote>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>A Copa da Suécia: O grande porre de 1958</strong></p>
<p> <em>C. Pereira</em></p>
<p>Já se foram 50 anos,  mas lembro bem como foi a  saga de 1958 quando a seleção brasileira ganhou a Copa do Mundo pela primeira vez. Ficou acertado que, naquele  mês de junho,  iríamos ouvir os jogos do Brasil no casarão dos Lyra, numa das mais antigas avenidas de João Pessoa. E assim foi feito durante a Copa, cujos jogos eram acompanhados pelo rádio pois ,  à época,  por aqui  ainda não havia televisão.<br />
Em todos os jogos, o ritual era o mesmo. Primeiro, uma passada no Ponto de Cem Réis, o principal ponto de encontro da cidade,  onde alguns alto-falantes pendurados em postes de altura mediana, distribuíam o som da rádio Bandeirantes de São Paulo que transmitia diretamente da Suécia, na voz inconfundível do grande locutor Edson Leite, aquele que ficou famoso com o bordão “Placar na Suécia”. A multidão, ouvidos exigentes, se comprimia no democrático quadrilátero,  livre para todas as manifestações – religiosa, política, esportiva. Uma espécie de Hyde Park paraibano onde todos podiam falar mal de todos... <br />
 A transmissão chegava com muitos defeitos. Era uma sucessão de ruídos, de engasgos e de interrupções, para os quais a torcida não estava nem aí. Ninguém arredava pé; copos de cerveja na mão, muitas bandeiras brasileiras tremulando e bonés em  verde amarelo criavam um cenário festivo, juntando uma maré de gente que só se via igual nos comícios dos candidatos a Governador.<br />
Somente o nosso grupo dos oito saía antes de começar a partida, porque o projeto montado para a Copa não podia nem devia ser interrompido. Tínhamos a obrigação de ouvir o jogo final na mesma casa, mantendo os mesmos ingredientes (comidinhas, bebidas e se possível a mesma roupa) dos jogos anteriores. E assim foi, de repente estávamos rumando para a General Osório, onde a dona da casa nos esperava na porta, ansiosa, temendo que quebrássemos a corrente, construída a partir do primeiro jogo, quando a seleção brasileira ganhou bem da Áustria, por 3x0, com um  dos gols marcados pelo inigualável Nilton Santos, do Fogão – é claro!<br />
Chegamos, nos abancamos na sala, diante de um rádio Phillips holandês, bem sintonizado na rádio Bandeirantes, nas ondas curtas de 31 metros, numa operação comandada pelo dono da casa  que entendia do assunto. E, para minha surpresa, houve uma proposta que foi aceita por todos: a cada gol do Brasil, os homens teriam de tomar um copo  cheio de bate-bate (caipirinha, para os sulistas) de maracujá, cabendo às mulheres (se quisessem) um copinho daqueles de servir licor. Diga-se, de passagem, que o bate-bate fora preparado com bastante carinho:  dois baldes de cachaça de cabeça, mel de abelha e suco de maracujá, a fruta apanhada no quintal de casa.<br />
O pacto foi firmado e, como os mais velhos  recordam, o Brasil ganhou de 5x2 e, assim, foram pelo menos cinco copos cheios de bate-bate goela abaixo. O que representou um passo decisivo para uma semi-embriaguez que me acompanhou depois do jogo e durante  aquela tarde em que me incorporei a um bloco de sujos formado no caminho de casa. De rua em rua, de parada em parada e de mais outros goles, cheguei em casa (não sei como) e acordei, depois das dez da noite, embaixo de um chuveiro de água gelada, a minha mãe gritando para me chamar de volta à vida e, aos brados, dizer que aquilo acabava com a minha saúde.<br />
No dia seguinte, depois de uma noite muito mal dormida, cheia de dor-de-cabeça e arrependimento, me prometi que jamais tomaria um porre igual àquele. Nem que a seleção ganhasse outra Copa do Mundo – o que aconteceria quatro anos depois, mas isso já é outra história...<br />
Hoje, quando a seleção disputa partidas como essas últimas, contra a Venezuela, Paraguai e Argentina,  garanto que não consegui tomar sequer uma simples taça de vinho tinto – que, como dizem os entendidos, também é bom para o coração. <br />
 É meus amigos, a coisa mudou – para muito pior...</p>
<p><em>C.Pereira é jornalista e alvinegro, não necessariamente nessa ordem. E, como todos nós, ficou revoltado com a atuação do Botafogo no sábado - especialmente no segundo tempo. Ainda mais porque tinha acabado de assistir um jogaço na Eurocopa e o contraste ficou evidente...</em></p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[[gallery]
<p>This post is a little slow out of the blocks but something I am really pleased about.  Last year (2007) the University of Leeds conferred an honorary Doctorate of Law upon one of Bethel's pioneer ministers.  Her name is Mabel Parris, pastor of Bethel Apostolic Church in Leeds (a branch of Bethel United Church of Jesus Christ Apostolic).</p>
<p>Here are the <a href="http://www.leeds.ac.uk/media/peoples_degrees/parris.htm" target="_blank">words of recognition</a> given by Lord (Melvin) Bragg as he presented her doctorate: -</p>
<blockquote><p>Today’s events recognise those who have made a major contribution          to the life of Leeds. In her 50 years in the city, Mabel Parris has genuinely          touched the lives of people here – and much further afield.</p>
<p>Arriving in Leeds in 1958, Mabel found there was no church which offered          the style of worship she had experienced in the Caribbean. She established          a fellowship in her home, leading to the foundation of Bethel Apostolic          Church in Hyde Park. She was ordained its first woman pastor in 1972.</p>
<p><!--more--></p>
<p>Fifty years on from its foundation, Bethel Apostolic Church remains a          powerful beacon for good in the inner-city, nurturing young people and          offering support to the elderly through the Bethel Day Care Centre. At          the age of 81, Pastor Parris remains at the heart of this community.</p>
<p>Her charitable work has had a major impact on a far broader stage. In          1993, starting with just £100, Pastor Parris established the Kenyan          Orphan Sponsorship Trust to provide accommodation and education for children          orphaned by AIDS.</p>
<p>The trust now runs two orphanages in Kenya, caring for the needs of more          than 100 youngsters. Pastor Parris has visited them 22 times and in doing          so has watched the young orphans learn, develop and grow.</p>
<p>She shows little sign of slowing down. Pastor Parris spends evenings          baking to raise money for the orphanages while her tireless efforts have          galvanised local churches into an on-going fundraising campaign to maintain          the trust’s life-changing work.</p>
<p>Her commitment to the church, the community and the charity is undiminished          – and she is sustained by the love of her 10 children, 13 grandchildren          and 15 great-grandchildren.</p>
<p>Chancellor, I am honoured to present to you for the degree of Doctor          of Laws, <em>honoris causa</em>: Mabel Parris.</p></blockquote>
<p>To God be all glory for Pastor Parris.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Yeah, <a href="http://patrin.muxtape.com/" target="_blank">I have a muxtape now</a>. I got this idea that every week I'm going to upload a new 12-song mix, starting with 1958 and going all the way through 2008, with no artists repeating. This does mean I'm going to have to keep overwriting my old mixes, which is going to be kind of a nuisance, but you do what you can with what you've got, I suppose. Here's the playlist for 1958, in case you're reading this a few weeks/months/etc. from now and it's already been replaced:
<p>
1. Huey "Piano" Smith and the Clowns - Don't You Just Know It (2:31)<br />

3. Macy Skipper - Quick Sand Love (2:35)<br />

6. Vince Taylor &#38; the Playboys - Brand New Cadillac (2:35)<br />
7. Dale Vaughn &#38; the Starnotes - How Can You Be Mean to Me (2:20)<br />
8. The Moonlighters - Broken Heart (2:20)<br />
9. Chuck Berry - Blue Feeling (3:03)<br />

Do you ever watch old movies, some of which used to be in black and white and are now colorized?  ]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Trebuchet MS;"></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span>Do you ever watch old movies, some of which used to be in black and white and are now colorized?<span>  </span>They are still classics, but never quite the same as the first time around.<span>  </span>The same may be said for timeless cocktails.<span>  </span>The first time we taste them they are marvelous on our taste buds.<span>  </span>Every time thereafter, a bit of their mystique fades away.<span>  </span>Yet, updated liquors and modernized recipes revamp cocktails to tantalize fading attention.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span>When I was a young teenager my mother took me to an old fashioned theater to see the production of Auntie Mame starring Rosalind Russell.<span>  </span>It was just a film showing at the theater, but it was complete with an intermission where we left our seats to go get popcorn in the basement area.<span>  </span>Even the smell of the popcorn seemed different from regular theaters where butter is slathered on in grease loads.<span>  </span>As a teenager the experience with my mother was more memorable than Auntie Mame in all her peculiar grandeur on the big screen.<span>  </span>But as an adult my children gave the DVD to me for Christmas this past year.<span>  </span>It was wonderful watching it again.<span>  </span>Was it the same as the experience in that theater with my mother so many years ago?<span>  </span>No.<span>  </span>But it brought back distinct memories that can never be experienced again.<span>  </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span>There was something else I discovered in watching this classic movie; it is fascinating to discover the fashionable drinks of the time in movies that remain timeless in our memories.<span>  </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span>Rosalind Russell plays Auntie Mame, a flapper from the roaring 20’s, who lives a carefree, eccentric sort of life.<span>  </span>She enjoys life to the fullest even when she is charged with the care of her orphaned nephew, Patrick.<span>  </span>Auntie Mame endeavors to save him from the stuffy, conventional executor of Patrick’s father’s estate by teaching him the wild and zany ways of an avant-garde world.<span>  </span>Along the way, there are four cocktails I took notice of.<span>  </span>I am not so sure that was really the intent of the producers.<span>  </span>At any rate, the movie is a must see in my opinion and the cocktails are of course classics any way you look at them.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span>The rage in the movie was a Daiquiri with honey which Auntie Mame did not like at all.<span>  </span>In my opinion a Daiquiri with granulated sugar is absolutely awful since the sugar does not dissolve properly and there is a perfectly good cure for that ail; <a href="http://intoxicologist.wordpress.com/2008/05/21/infusing-flavor-into-your-bar-syrup/"><span style="color:#800080;">bar syrup</span></a> which I have covered in detail in an earlier post.<span>  </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><strong><span>The Daiquiri</span></strong><span> (the way it’s supposed to be – according to<a href="http://www.10cane.com/"><span style="color:#800080;"> 10 Cane</span></a>)</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><span style="line-height:115%;">Jangeran menjadi nomor puncak konser persahabatan Jepang-Indonesia yang digelar 9-10 Juni 2008 di Balai Sarbini, Jakarta. Perpaduan orkestra dengan irama rancak gamelan Bali ditingkapi dengan tarian cantik dari Anak Agung Gede Ariawan mengundang aplaus penonton.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--more--><span style="line-height:115%;">Memasuki karya Chris Watson ini penonton langsung disuguhi tarian Bali dan irama gamelan yang melankolis. Irama ini kemudian bergeser ke musik klasik dan selanjutnya berpadu selaras antara musik tradisional Indonesia dan<span> </span>orchestra.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><span style="line-height:115%;">Jangeran sendiri lahir untuk menjembatani gap antara barat dan timur. Ia sebuah melodi khas Bali yang diangkat orkes simfoni barat yang selanjutnya ditata kembali dalam berbagai konteks barat yang khas. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><span style="line-height:115%;">Sebelum memasuki nomor puncak ini, penonton yang memadati Balai Sarbini disuguhi nomor pembuka dari Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart “Overture from Opera ‘Le Nozze di Figaro’”. Disusul dengan “First Movement from Symphony No. 5 in C minor op. 67” milik Ludwig van Beethoven. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><span style="line-height:115%;">Panggung kemudian berubah ceria ketika Hitokaro Yazaki, konduktor, memimpin Tokyo City Philharmonic Orchestra dan Nusantara Symphony Orchestra memainkan nomor-nomor cantik Leroy Anderson. Aksi spontan Hitokaro Yazaki dan kejenakaan dalam tiga lagu “The Typewriter”, “Syncopated Clock” dan “Plink Plank Plunk” mengundang tawa penonton, terutama anak-anak.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><span style="line-height:115%;">Konser Persahabatan Jepang-Indonesia sendiri menurut Duta Besar Luar Biasa dan Berkuasa Penuh Jepang untuk Indonesia Kojiro Shiojiri menandai 50 tahun sejak Jepang dan Indonesia menandatangani perjanjian perdamaian pada 20 Januari 1958. Sejak itu kedua negara membina hubungan yang erat dalam berbagai bidang, termasuk kebudayaan.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><span style="line-height:115%;">”Konser ini salah satu dari rangkaian acara perayaan 50 tahun ini,” ujarnya. “Saya yakin konser ini memiliki arti mendalam dalam menuju setengah abad yang baru guna meningkatkan pertukaran kebudayaan dan saling pengertian antara rakyat Jepang dan Indonesia,” lanjutnya panjang lebar. </span></p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>1958 was swell. This home made documentary on Lebanon shows Lebanon in all it's forms, including the swell days of the 1950s. I grant the author good footage on the early days of Lebanon.</p>
<p>Towards the end, the author portrays a history in film of the war we prevented in 2008. Though, I disagree with<strong> </strong>the film makers' 'wording'.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align:center;"><strong>Year:</strong> 1958</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><strong>Director:</strong> Art Napoleon</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><strong>Cast:</strong> Errol Flynn, Dorothy Malone, Efram Zimbalist, Jr.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">It was exhausting watching the life of Diana Barrymore in Too Much, Too Soon. I can't imagine actually living it. In today's culture, with the media placing every celebrity under a microscope this story will come across to some modern audiences as mundane. While the movie basically boils down to a narrative version of the television show E! True Hollywood Story, it still manages to have some impact as a tragic tale of a life completely wasted. It is especially tragic when one realizes that Diana Barrymore died just two years after the release of the film. Diana Barrymore, daughter of famous actor John Barrymore, and half-sister to John Drew Barrymore (who is the father of actress Drew Barrymore) only lived to be 38 and this movie chronicles some of the struggles that prematurely ended her life.</p>
<p>For your information this review may contain what some may consider spoilers.</p>
<p>The transformation of Dorothy Malone from a young teenager to a middle-aged woman was very well executed and her performance is impressive and still comes across as shocking and tragic even 50 years later.</p>
<p>The movie is also very well shot. Visually, it has a noir like quality to it and the choice to do it in black and white was genius. One wonders if color would have ruined this dark and depressing story.</p>
<p>The movie does have its flaws including the pulling of some punches. Certain topics are glossed over or omitted all together that I imagine a modern version would include. For instance, the real Diana Barrymore apparently found herself in some abusive relationships and was involved in both drug and alcohol abuse, not just the latter, as portrayed in the movie. There were directorial decisions that hint at these aspects of her life quite creatively however. For instance, when Dorothy Malone crashes through a window at a pharmacy in a drunken rage the word "Drugs" is shown in the foreground on the glass just before she crashes through, implying perhaps that this rampage may be more then just a reaction to liquor. One of the most memorable scenes also, which touches on the idea that she was in some abusive relationships, is when her new husband while practicing tennis, hits her in the face with a tennis ball, leaving her on the ground, bleeding from the mouth.</p>
<p>This brutal movie is a depiction of a book based on true events but still has moments that unfortunately come across as melodramatic. With subject matter based in such tragic realism it is a shame that some of the acting comes across as over done and too Hollywoodish. Surprisingly, I felt like Errol Flynn, who plays Diana's father, is the worst culprit. His acting is disapointing at times and some of his dialogue seems awkward. It is hard to tell what is more to blame, the script, or his acting.</p>
<p>I am sure this was a much more powerful film when it was released 50 years ago. Truly, that is where some of the tragedy of the film lies, in the fact that this type of story has become all too familiar to the general public. A life wasted by missed opportunities due to drug and alcohol abuse, psychological damage brought on by a dysfunctional childhood, and codependent relationships with abusive partners seems like more of a cliche then a tragedy. Lives have been ruined by alcohol, divorce, parental neglect, drugs, and abuse for a long time yet there appears to be no end in sight. If anything, watching this movie in 2008 should leave the audience questioning why society doesn't change and why people don't learn.</p>

"Charlie Brown," which cast </span><a class="dlink" href="http://www.artistdirect.com/music/artist/card/0,,450562,00.html" target="_blank"><span style="color:#3366ff;font-family:arial;">Jones</span></a><span style="color:#ff9900;font-family:arial;"> in the title role of class clown (and immortalized him with the catch-phrase, "why's everybody always pickin' on me?"), hit number two on both the pop and R&#38;B charts in 1959, firmly establishing the Coasters' widespread crossover appeal. More hits followed: the Western-themed "Along Came Jones," "Poison Ivy," "Shoppin' for Clothes," and the group's final Top 30 hit, 1961's burlesque-dancer tribute "Little Egypt."</span></div>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As much as Mukesh's success and fame was due to his association with Raj Kapoor and Shankar-Jaikishan, several of the classic songs of his were from other composers, notably Salil Chowdhury. Here is a song from the Bimal Roy film, Madhumati, where Mukesh sings for Dilip Kumar, in duet with Lata Mangeshkar singing for Vyjanthimala.</p>

<p>Lyrics: <a href="http://www.downmelodylane.com/shailendra.html">Shailendra</a></p>
<p>Dil tadap tadap ke keh raha hai aa bhi jaa<br />
Tu humse aankh na chura, tujhe kasam hai aa bhi jaa<br />
Tu nahin to ye bahaar kya bahaar hai<br />
Gul nahin khile to tera intezaar hai<br />
Ke tera intezaar hai</p>
<p>Dil dhadak dhadak ke de rahaa hai ye sada<br />
Tumhari ho chukin hun main<br />
Tumhare saath hun sada</p>
<p>Tumse meri zindagi ka ye shringaar hai<br />
Jee rahi hun main ke mujhko tumse pyaar hai<br />
Ke mujhko tumse pyaar hai</p>
<p>Muskuraate pyaar ka asar hai har kahin<br />
Dil kahaan hai hum kidhar hain kuchh khabar nahin<br />
Kidhar hai kuchh khabar nahin</p>

<p>Escribe: Arturo Vigil (El Sótano Beat)</p>
<p>Si bien es cierto, el rock peruano tanto en los sesentas y comienzos de los setenta gozó de su mejor momento, nunca se hizo mención el aporte de algunos solistas y grupos pocos conocidos, que impregnaron a su música la mística de nuestra historia y al empleo del quechua como idioma preferencial para la elaboración de sus temas, además de incluir en su repertorio temas tradicionales de nuestro folclor, y así recrear en una acertada fusión de distintos elementos, un aporte significativo a la música moderna en el Perú. Aquí alguna precisiones para esclarecer y discernir, sobre estos aislados intentos.</p>
<div>En los primeros años sesentas, existió un solista nuevaolero llamado Pipo Ávalos que se atrevió a cantar baladas como “Ahora no” y “Moon River” en quechua, algo insólito en ese momento, más referencias de este cantante no la tenemos, simplemente desapareció de los escenarios, y quizás su propuesta en ese momento no fue entendida, es lo mas posible…</div>
<div><!--more-->Tiempo después vendrían Los Siderals de Ayacucho, alrededor de 1967,para darle vitalidad a este movimiento y bajo los lineamientos del rock instrumental,mayor frescura a temas tradicionales del folclor nacional, como “El Cóndor Pasa” de Daniel Alomía Robles entre otros.</div>
<div>Ya en el Cuzco Los Espectros destacaban con su música en las llamadas “Fogatas Bailables” .Ellos ya en los setentas se transformarían en el Trébol y que en su disco “Buscándote” de 1973 grabado en el sello “El Virrey”, darían vida a uno de los temas más emblemáticos de la escena cuzqueña de esos años, como “El Viento pregunta por ti” cantado en quechua y convertido en un rock altamente telúrico por sus seguidores,y en Lima un par de años antes, estaba El Opio cantando “Una bruja en el Cuzco” en un excelente arreglo de saxos, incomparable en su momento.</div>
<div>Pero El Polen,que con sus discos “El Cholo” y “Fuera de la Ciudad”, fue la propuesta más autentica de esa época y se puede decir que ellos en esos años fueron la verdad revelada,incluso el grupo chileno Los Jaivas siempre los señalaron como su principal influencia.</div>
<div>Y en este recorrido es fundamental también rescatar el trabajo musical de Zulú (Miguel Ángel Ruiz Orbegozo) ex Traffic Sound, quien editaría en 1972 su único disco solista, en la que realizaba una interesante fusión de folk con ritmos afro peruanos, en la que destacaban los temas “Candela” y “Como lirios en el campo” entre otros. En estos intentos también estaban conjuntos de la talla de El Ayllu, Alpaca,Soncco y el solista Miguel Flores (ex baterista de Pax),que con su “Musicontemporánea Peruana” dieron su respectivo aporte al rock nacional en la medida de sus posibilidades, aunque todos ellos se mantuvieron a un nivel bastante underground pudieron mostrar en sus trabajos pinceladas de identidad y las ganas de crear un futuro musical por fin propio y nuestro, aunque lástima todo estos esfuerzos se perdieran en el tiempo.</p>
