In Memoriam Paul Newman
2008-09-27 17:45:00
The world has lost one of the greatest actors of the last half-century.  Paul Newman “who personified cool . . . died Friday after a long battle with cancer at his farmhouse near Westport,” Connecticut.  It says as much about the man as anything that, like Katharine Hepburn, he died where he lived — far from ...

Jim McKay (September 24, 1921 ? June 7, 2008)As one of the generation who had TV as my nanny, the voice of Jim McKay takes me way back. Back to before we had a color TV. Back to when there were 3 networks, PBS and community TV that we weren't allowed to watch. Back to when my dad would have "us kids" get up and change the channel. Back when my Sainted Mother would exhort us not to sit too close or we'd get "the cancer", then watch as my dad would stand directly in front of the TV and drop trou to tuck in his shirt. "Your parent's weren't glassblowers", my mother would say. I still haven't figured that one out yet.That was back when the news was read by Cronkite and network standards required even sportscasters to be eloquent. Back when the written and spoken word had meaning and writers and broadcasters still had value.Back when McKay stepped from his sportscaster role in to that of a journalist and he and his producer Roone Arledge became the primary source of the world'...

Poeira Cósmica - In Memoriam Fernando Magalhães
2008-05-12 13:02:00
Temos todos muitas saudades dele. Da sua inteligência, da sua ironia, do seu arrevesado sentido de humor, dos seus conhecimentos enciclopédicos sobre muitas músicas. Como escrevi uma vez, algures, ele era o melhor de nós todos. E todos nós aprendemos - tanto!!! - com ele. Para mitigar as saudades, se não dele pelo menos dos seus textos, Tiago Carvalho criou um blog em que transcreve críticas, reportagens e artigos de Fernando Magalhães, apropriadamente chamado Poeira Cósmica. Para continuarmos a aprender.Nota: segundo alerta o meu bom amigo João Almeida, há também outro local onde se podem encontrar textos do Fernando Magalhães: o site FM: Stereo 5.1.

Simple Green, un theme ?in memoriam?
2008-02-15 00:00:00
Simple Green es un theme como los que me gustan: sencillo, sobrio, sin estridencias ni contrastes fuertes. Un theme que no roba tu atención mientras trabajas, con iconos más pequeños que los corrientes, y con los botones de navegar hacia adelante y hacia atrás integrados, lo cual los hace lucir muy bien, aunque no permite abrir en ellos la lista de páginas disponibles en el historial. Sin embargo esta limitación no es irremediable: el usuario puede abrir la caja de iconos (Ver | Barras de herramientas | Personalizar?) y arrastrar el separador de manera que quede en medio de ambos botones; luego, para abrir la lista de páginas disponibles será necesario hacer click derecho sobre el botón correspondiente. Es de hacer notar que se trata de un theme “in memoriam”, con iconos del extinto Netscape 9, y puede instalarse en Firefox y en Thunderbird.

In Memoriam Pak Harto: Selamat Jalan Bapak Pembangunan
2008-01-28 16:52:00
Tidak bisa dipungkiri bahwa Soeharto masih banyak dielu-elukan oleh masyarakat. Walupun beliau banyak tersandung oleh masalah hukum, namun beliau tetap merupakan salah satu Bapak terbaik yang dimiliki bangsa ini. Pro dan kontra dalam setiap kasus Soeharto merupakan cerminan bahwa kita harus melihat Soeharto sebagai pribadi yang utuh. Manusia biasa yang tidak luput dari kekhilafan. Jika memang beliau memiliki kesalahan, harap dilihat juga jasa-jasanya. Kini Bapak pembangunan Indonesia itu telah tiada. Selamat jalan Pak Harto. Semoga amal ibadahmu diterima olehNya. Dan kepada seluruh masyarakat Indonesia, mari bukakan pintu maaf kepada Almarhum agar beliau dapat tenang di alam baka.Terus terang aku jadi lebih tertarik untuk mempelajari Soeharto lebih jauh pasca kematian dan penguburannya yang lalu. Dari hasil pencarian kesana-kemari, akhirnya aku dapat referensi berupa ebook yang berformat PDF tentang Soeharto. Lumayan untuk baca-baca di rumah supaya lebih kenal dengan Bapak Pembaunga...

MR. MEDRANO: IN MEMORIAM
2008-01-24 08:35:00
I was already at the jeepney after buying some stuff at SM santa rosa when I have received an SMS message. Our professor is already dead. It was sent to me by my friend who is the secretary of the Graduate school at SPCBA.The professor I'm pertaining to is Mr Antonio Medrano. He teaches mostly on BS business Management Students at San Pedro College of Business Administration. I used to call him "prayle" because of his "Noli-me-Tangere-ish" features. You can mistakenly identify him as a rector of some sort.Me and Sir Medz (as most students call him) became close when a certain misunderstanding occurred at the school. He really portrayed himself as very strong person who stands on what he really believes despite the threats and adversities he is facing.I will truly miss you sir medz!

Elizabeth Hardwick - in memoriam
2007-12-05 16:59:00
Several newspapers (for instance, The Times) have an obituary on 'critic, essayist and fiction writer" Elizabeth Hardwick, who died last Sunday in New York at 91. She too was a Brontëite.From Los Angeles Times:One essay in the collection [Seduction and Betrayal: Women in Literature (1974)], considers Emily Bronte and her 1847 novel, "Wuthering Heights." Hardwick contrasted Bronte's personal life as a "penniless intellectual" living with her lonely sisters and her explosive father, to her treatment of the novel's tormented main characters, Cathy and Heathcliff.The harsh fate for the novel's unrequited lovers indicated that Bronte was "in every way indifferent to the need for love and companionship" in her own life, Hardwick argues. "'Wuthering Heights' is a virgin's novel," she concludes. (Mary Rourke)Interesting conclusion, bearing in mind the amount of theories out there claiming that Emily Brontë must have led some sort of secret life in order to write Wuthering Heights.F...

We must sadly report a recent loss with strong Brontë echoes.

The film was awarded with an Emmy for best music (John Williams) and was released theatrically in Europe.Not so well known is that he directed Brontë in 1983 with Juliet Harris. Brontë was based in the radio play Currer Bell, Esq. by William Luce, a monologue written for Julie Harris.Julie Harris portrays the poignant short life of the great English writer Charlotte Brontë in this filmed version of Harris's tour-de-force, one-woman act.

Branwell Brontë died at the Haworth Parsonage on a day like today 159 years ago. From what we know, his death was precisely the opposite of his life: he passed away quietly, saying amen after his father's prayers, to his family's consolation.The sisters who for many years expected to see their brother's name written in gold were finally the ones who brought him fame, who made the world aware of his unfulfilled potential and his diverse writings.Categories: Branwell Brontë, Reminder

Madeleine L'Engle, the celebrated author of A Wrinkle in Time and many other books of fiction and Christian essays, passed away on Thursday at the age of 88. From the New York Times, Sept. 8: Madeleine L?Engle, an author whose childhood fables, religious meditations and fanciful science fiction transcended both genre and generation, most memorably in her children?s classic ?A Wrinkle in Time,? died on Thursday in Litchfield, Conn.

Bush. Mr. Gonzales served Mr. Bush faithfully until September 2008 when Alberto met his tragic end.He presided nobly over the Guantanamo Bay prison program, the NSA wiretapping program, and the dismissal of U.S. attorneys controversy, even under pressure.He will never be forgotten.
