O Rio de Janeiro é conhecida pelo mundo fora como a cidade de mil encantos, fonte de inspiração divina e, no coração dos cariocas, é indiscutivelmente a verdadeira capital do país. Tanto para os que já lá estiveram como para os que conhecem a cidade através de revistas, postais e telenovelas, esta cidade destaca-se pela beleza natural, pelas linhas sensuais e pelas formas curvas, visíveis nas baías, nas montanhas e, claro, nas mulheres.
Mas a cultura desta cidade limita-se precisamente a isso, ao culto da praia, da noite, do samba e do Corcovado. É insignificante o número de pessoas que visita o Rio de Janeiro com algum interesse cultural, ou que na sua esta da percorra museus e outros espaços dedica dos a exposições ligadas à cultura e à arte.

His accuracy, observed in 25 cases, has led the staff to call family members once he has chosen someone. It usually means they have less than four hours to live."He doesn't make too many mistakes. He seems to understand when patients are about to die," said Dr. David Dosa in an interview.

| Manny Pacquiao: Towards David Diaz and Oscar dela Hoya! | | 2008-03-26 04:35:42 | | From what I’ve read and saw on television, Filipino boxer Manny Pacquiao, aka The Pacman, prefers David Diaz above anyone else. A third fight with Mexico’s Juan Manuel Marquez is not high on the WBC superfeatherweight champion’s agenda, at least not for his next fight in June or July 2008. Manny Pacquiao believes that if he fights Juan Manuel Marquez soon, it may appear to be too personal between them. However, Manny also stressed that the fans will get what they want, and all things put aside, everything depends on the promoters. And the price, of course! A third one with Marquez is rumored to net the Filipino boxer a cool $8-10 million! I guess the Unfinished Business is neither over nor finished! *much thanks to Gang for the picAll roads lead to Manny Pacquiao moving up in weight (lightweight, 135 lbs) and challenge American-Mexican David Diaz, giving the Filipino pugilist a shot at a fourth world title in different divisions.

| P. Diddy Getting An Oscar For “A Raisin In The Sun” ? | | 2008-03-02 16:13:00 | | “A Raisin In The Sun”I watched Puff Daddy’s version of “A Raisin In The Sun”, a film first made in 1961 starring Sidney Poitier, Claudia McNeil, Diana Sands, Ruby Dee and Louis Gossett Jr. on ABC the other night. Puff Daddy’s version was quite interesting, P. Diddy himself had a leading role, playing the troubled young man - who so badly wanted to be a success. I’d never seen Sean Combs act, so I was rather surprised to see him give such an inspired performance. Does his performance deserve an Oscar? This was one good film, I really enjoyed this movie.Now the movie itself was in the line of the “old negro spirituals”, no hope anywhere. But it ended like “Cinderella”. This new “A Raisin In The Sun” was a good movie, no doubt. ABC took a chance and from the news sources, ABC won big.

| Oscar 2008!! red all over the place! | | 2008-02-25 07:16:00 | | Red Red Red..all over...but i liked Jessica Alba's Marchesa dress and Cartier jewelry and Keisha Whitaker's dress ia amaaaazing!! Jennifer Garner in Oscar de la Renta looks better than everytime with Van Cleef & Arpels jewelry and Miley Cyrus looking good in Valentino, I was worried about her because she is not always looking good in awards' parties. Renée Zellweger in Carolina Herrera like always but she is looking good and OMG Cate Blanchett!!! First time ever in Red Carpet!! I don't know what happened but maybe she didn't know that this is the OSCARS? Katherine Heigl looks great in ESCADA red dress with red lips!Cameron Diaz looking much better in Christian Dior with Bulgari jewelry. I know pregnant women feel tired but I think Nicole Kidman was looking good with Balenciaga gown and lovely L'Wren Scott necklace!! and Bottega Veneta clutch.most of the celebrities wearing Roger Vivier clutchesas you see i said good not fantastic but Keisha's look is marvelous more to come later | | By: fashionjaw | | |

| And it’s time again… Oscar outfit frenzy | | 2008-02-25 03:37:46 | | Nothing much has changed since last year.

| 20 canciones con Oscar | | 2008-02-21 18:08:46 | | En su página digital, "elmundo.es" ha publicado un especial sobre los "Oscar" muy completo. Se puede acceder a los especiales de años anteriores, hasta el año 2000. Se puede jugar un trivial y comprobar tus conocimientos sobre el cine. Puedes votar por tus favoritos entre todos los nominados de este año. Puedes conocer a todos los nominados. Puedes ver un cortometraje sobre la estatuilla.Pero de todos los apartados del especial, he dejado para el final, el que yo considero mejor, 20 canciones con Oscar, canciones de todas las décadas, que han sonado en pelÃculas que han hecho historia al recibir al menos un Oscar. Muy bueno, para olvidarse este fin de semana de una omnipresente campaña electoral.

| Get Organized: Where's Oscar? | | 2008-02-21 12:04:00 | | This Sunday millions of Americans will watch the Academy Awards. It's hard not to be starstruck by all the big names and sheer talent that gather in one place. But amidst all the glitz and glamour, there is one burning question: Where do the winners put Oscar when all is said and done?Some stars have the über organized spot for their gold statue. Jennifer Hudson, who took home Best Supporting Actress for her portrayal of Effie in Dreamgirls, explained: "I...bought a pedestal for it that I keep lit."While others have no established home for their once-in-a-lifetime award. "My Oscar's in my home in New York," said Al Pacino, who won Best Actor for Scent of a Woman. "It's like musical chairs trying to find it."If you were an Oscar winner, would you perfectly display your Oscar like Jennifer or constantly misplace it like Al?Maybe Al Pacino could use a professional organizer to help him with Oscar storage and organization?

Oscar Schmidt, 205 centimetri, idolo a Caserta e Pavia, nato a Natal nello stato brasiliano di Rio Grande do Norte, spegne 50 candeline e lo fa ancora parlando del suo tema preferito: la pallacanestro, facendo delle conferenze sul tema e nel ruolo di commentatore delle emittenti Globo e SporTV.MAGLIE RITIRATE - "Sono molto felice. Non tutti possono festeggiare i 50 anni sentendosi realizzati come me. Prima mi guadagnavo la vita giocando a basket, adesso lo faccio parlandone". Il suo cuore batte ancora forte quando pensa alle esperienze a Caserta e a Pavia: "I miei grandi momenti in Italia furono le loro promozioni alla massima divisione. Provai una gioia immensa in quelle due città . Vorrei mandare un bacio a tutti gli italiani".

| El retrato de Oscar Wilde. | | 2008-01-27 17:41:36 | |
Esta es la tercera ocasión en el que estoy leyendo el libro de OSCAR WILDE “el retrato de Dorian Gray†y quiero afirmar que este tipo de obras de arte de tiempo en tiempo vienen nuevamente a ser consumidos por hombres de otras generaciones y no precisamente de estos tiempos.
Â
Bueno este libro muy añejo se ha puesto de moda nuevamente en el PERU, como en su momento lo hizo  “UN MUNDO PARA JULIUS†de Alfredo Bryce Echenique etc.
Â
Hoy a la mañana me entere, que en el programa radial de una emisora muy prestigiosa en el Perú (por no decir la mejor radio de noticias del Perú RRP) analizara minuciosamente a esta novela  en el programa “MI NOVELA FAVORITA†que se trasmite en horarios favorables para los amantes de la literatura clasica.

El retrato de Dorian Gray es la única novela que escribió el autor irlandés Oscar Wilde, y que publicó en el Lippincott's Monthly Magazine el 20 de junio de 1890 (posteriormente, Wilde revisarÃa la obra, realizando | | By: Suriel de la jungla perdida. | | |
