Guess Who's Coming (This Way) To Dinner, Kids

AnIndianLydia

By the mid 70’s, the full moon parties in Goa were in full swing with bands playing all night on big four way speaker stacks / Come the early 80’s, the original crowd of hedonistic settlers had been joined by a new generation, many of them European, who brought their own music with them /

It’s unclear exactly who set up the first electronic music parties in Goa - some credit a character called Dr Bobby - but it is known that many of the new arrivals would frequent clubs in Ibiza, London, Berlin, Rimini and Riccione when they returned to Europe for the summer / It’s also clear that they had little or no attachment to the 70’s rock favoured by the original crowd / Initially they were met with some fierce resistance, but by 1983 electronic music had pretty much taken over / And so it was that

at the same time that Chicago was creating House and Detroit was forging ahead with what would become Techno, the roots of Trance were being sawn

on the beaches of Anjuna and Vagator / And just as Chicago had Ron Hardy and Detroit had The Electrifying Mojo, Goa had a DJ called Laurent / If it wasn’t for him, it’s quite possible that the music played at parties in Goa would have been little more than a carbon copy of what was going on back in Europe and America / But like all true pioneers, Laurent made it much more than the sum of it’s parts and in doing so created a whole new style of music /

Boy Needs Therapy!

Did I ever tell you the story about
Cowboys!
M-M-midgets,
the indians and,
Fron,
Frontier Psychiatrist
I... I felt strangely hypnotised
I was in another world, a world of 20.000 girls
And milk! Rectangles, to an optometrist, the man with the golden eyeball
And tighten your buttocks,
pour juice on your chin
I promise my girlfriend I'd, the violin, violin, violin...

AFP:
«Resolving major logistical headaches in power, water, telecommunications and food supplies will determine the fate of many survivors in the coming weeks, these sources said.
Dysentery, measles, mosquito-borne diseases, dengue, tuberculosis, influenza and other respiratory infections already lurk in Haiti and have ample means to spread among those who are weak or in poor health, living in the street or in cramped rooms.
"There is a whole range of communicable diseases that will almost invariably rise over the coming days and weeks," said Aloudat. "There is a very high likelihood of outbreaks of diarrhoeal diseases. That is a major concern."
Hotham added: "There is always a cholera concern. Port-au-Prince is already a high-risk area for dengue under normal circumstances."
Brigitte Vasset, a physician with the French first-response charity Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF, Doctors Without Borders) emphasised the need to address longer-term basics after the rush to extricate survivors. "The sooner there is shelter, water and food, the less disease there will be," she said.»

« ... por mim, situo a ruptura ... em O Passado e o Presente ... :

a) a alternância de grandes sequências sem diálogos com sequências muito faladas, a necrofilia como forma suprema da paixão, os estratificados pontos de vista das classes sociais e o tema das flores (flores para os mortos e flores dos mortos-vivos);

b) ... corporalidade vincadamente fantomática, em que os oito protagonistas se movem como espectros, numa casa igualmente espectral ou em locais associáveis à morte (cemitério, igreja);

c) ... dominado pela teatralidade da representação. Simultaneamente, o texto dito é, não só também ultra-teatral, como é um texto sem qualquer correspondência com o português usual, acentuando, até à caricatura, a inverosimilhança dos diálogos e das situações;

d) ... um evidente desequilíbrio entre a força das mulheres e a fraqueza dos homens.

Através do tema dos gémeos, o tema do duplo era, pela primeira vez, dominante na obra de Oliveira. Através da "adoradora de maridos defuntos", a morte e a imagem dos mortos eram assumidas como plétora do amor. Na casa murada e muralhada de Vanda ... celebrou-se, pela primeira vez, a representação necrófila e sacral da dissociação entre os corpos e o sexo, retirando espaço e tempo à impossível unidade entre o homem e a mulher.»

o marido da senhora que lê muito (incluindo outdoors), o delicioso presidente da república portuguesa (mas podia ser de qualquer outra, como sabemos agora), conseguiu abrir uma sessão da bolsa de nova iorque;

COURIC, STATING A FACT, MAKING ONE (1) QUESTION: You've cited Alaska's proximity to Russia as part of your foreign policy experience. What did you mean by that?
PALIN: That Alaska has a very narrow maritime border between a foreign country, Russia, and on our other side, the land -- boundary that we have with -- Canada. [...]
COURIC, BEING A BAD BAD GIRL: Explain to me why that enhances your foreign policy credentials.
PALIN: Well, it certainly does because our -- our next door neighbors are foreign countries. They're in the state that I am the executive of. And there in Russia --
"THAT BITCH" COURIC: Have you ever been involved with any negotiations, for example, with the Russians?
PALIN: We have trade missions back and forth. We -- we do -- it's very important when you consider even national security issues with Russia as Putin rears his head and comes into the air space of the United States of America, where -- where do they go? It's Alaska. It's just right over the border. It is -- from Alaska that we send those out to make sure that an eye is being kept on this very powerful nation, Russia, because they are right there. They are right next to -- to our state.

The Tempest - By William Sh.

[PRÓSPERO]

Reparai, senhores, no que vestem estes homens

e dizei-me se eles são de confiança. A mãe deste velhaco
disforme era uma bruxa tão nojenta
que influenciava até a própria lua

e as mais estranhas marés assim eram engendradas.
Roubaram-me os três; este meio-demónio
- que é, pois claro, um filho bastardo - tramou

junto dos outros tirar-me a vida. Dois são vossos

conhecidos; este pedaço de escuridão
sei bem que é propriedade minha.
