The reason for the decline of Orson Welles's career is a hotly debated issue, but decline it certainly did. When Citizen Kane, his first film, opened in 1941, Welles was universally acclaimed as the most audacious filmmaker alive. But instead of marking the beginning of a triumphant career in Hollywood, the film still regularly voted the greatest ever made proved to be an exception in Welles's life and work. In 1947 Welles left America for Europe and lived for the best part of twenty years in self-imposed exile. Welles himself famously quipped 'I started at the top and worked my way down' - the second volume of Simon Callow's compelling biography tells the story of that complex and protracted descent from grace.

But Dorian knows that with the right leading man, Sabrina could give the performance of a lifetime. Enter Viorel Hudson, the arrogantly sexy British import whose Heathcliff promises to be the most explosive Hollywood has ever seen. From the moment Vio and Sabrina meet, their chemistry is undeniable. But as hot as their on-screen performance is, it doesn't hold a candle to the tabloid-ready drama unfolding behind the scenes?

Extracto: Eskorbuto fue un grupo de musica punk originario de Santurce, Pais Vasco, Espana. Surgieron en los anos 1980 y han sido muy influyentes en el panorama punk y rock, siendo una banda nunca exenta de criticas, se han convertido en un mito dentro del punk practicamente en todo el mundo. El grupo se crea en 1980 influenciados por la repercusion del movimiento punk en 1977. Son descubiertos por Sardi, uno de los personajes de la movida madrilena, en 1982. En 1983 en un posterior viaje a Madrid para detallar con Sardi los pormenores del repertorio de lo que sera su primer disco, el clasico "Mucha policia, poca diversion," este les indica un camino a traves de un parque para llegar a casa de un amigo; al salir del parque pasan por delante de una comisaria. Alli mismo, dado su aspecto "sospechoso" son interrogados por la policia y detenidos por el contenido de las letras de la maqueta que portaban (con temas como -ETA-, -La calavera del Rey- o -Maldito Pais Espana-) y se les aplica la ley antiterrorista. Durante la encarcelacion Eskorbuto se sintieron abandonados por algunos sectores del Pais Vasco, sobre todo la denominada Izquierda Abertzale y lo plasmaron, en el disco Zona Especial Norte(1984), en el tema -A la mierda el Pais Vasco-. Esto, junto con no quererse alinear con el denominado Rock Radical Vasco, les trajo muchos problemas para tocar en el Pais Vasco. Se edita su primer disco con Spansuls en 1983, producido por Sardi. Y en 1984 "Zona Especial Norte," LP compartido con RIP, tambien en Spansuls. Su primer album completo llego en 1985, Eskizofrenia, para Tw...

In the late 1940s Patrick Leigh Fermor, now widely regarded as one of the twentieth century's greatest travel writers, set out to explore the then relatively little-visited islands of the Caribbean. Rather than a comprehensive political or historical study of the region, "The Traveller's Tree," Leigh Fermor's first book, gives us his own vivid, idiosyncratic impressions of Guadeloupe, Martinique, Dominica, Barbados, Trinidad, and Haiti, among other islands. Here we watch Leigh Fermor walk the dusty roads of the countryside and the broad avenues of former colonial capitals, equally at home among the peasant and the elite, the laborer and the artist. He listens to steel drum bands, delights in the Congo dancing that closes out Havana's Carnival, and observes vodou and Rastafarian rites, all with the generous curiosity and easy erudition that readers will recognize from his subsequent classic accounts "A Time of Gifts" and "Between the Woods and the Water."

Ancient texts repeatedly call it Kashmir Mandala, a name that encodes spatial and temporal locus in terms of a sacred geography. The symbolism that the term signifies encompasses both the geographical meaning of a zone or a land and a cosmic sphere or circle with the presiding deity occupying the central spot. The mandala also symboizes a sanctified cosmic or an ideal city according to Buddhist texts. The taxonomy of Kashmir Mandala has geo-political ramifications when one takes into consideration the extended sphere and influence of the Valley outside its territorial frontiers. Occupying a central place in the wonder world of Himalayan culture, Kashmir has contributed its serene vision and deep wisdom to the development of its unique traditions. Prompted by historical factors and geographical location, the people inhabiting this vast zone have been sharing with each other religious beliefs and practices, ritual behaviour and moral attitudes, artistic styles and architectural features, folklore and mythical legends through centuries of cross-regional exchanges and social interactions a process in which the scholastic and artistic proclivities and activities of Kashmiri Pandits have played a pervasive role. Ancient chroniclers have repeatedly referred to the intimate historical and cultural links that existed between Kashmir and Kangra, Chamba, Kullu and Spiti at one end and Taxila, Gandhara and Kabul Valley at the other.

Building on the solid foundation laid in Becoming a Contagious Christian, Just Walk Across the Room signals the next era in personal evangelism. Pastor Bill Hybels s firm conviction is that the highest value in personal evangelism is being attuned to and cooperative with the promptings of the Holy Spirit. This means playing only the role you are intended to play---walking when the Spirit says to walk, talking when the Spirit says to talk, and falling silent when the Spirit suggests that you ve already said enough. More than two thousand years ago, Jesus himself introduced the perfect model for evangelism. He left the marvelous adoration of the angels and the perfection of heaven, and he chose to walk clear across the cosmos. He had no memorized script, no forced formulas. Instead, he was armed only with an offer of redemption to people just like you and me, many of whom were neck-deep in pain of their own making. Today, the goal for every Christian is to reflect Christ s love and follow his example by taking simple walks across rooms---leaving our circles of comfort and extending hands of care, compassion, and inclusiveness to people living far from God. Hybels encourages Christ-followers to live in 3-D ---developing friendships, discovering stories, and discerning appropriate next steps---as a means of learning to understand the Spirit s promptings. With fresh perspectives from his own reflections and experiences collected during his most recent decade of ministry. Hybels shows with undeniable clarity the power of this approach to evangelism. The stakes are high. The implications are eternal. And you may be only a conversation away from having unparalleled impact on someone s life---if you will just walk across the room."
