  • “Vogue” Em Performances Do Carnaval Carioca Strike a Pose!
    ARTIGO COMUN. MÍDIA CONSUMO, SÃO PAULO, V. 16, N. 46, P. 376-395, MAI./AGO. 2019 DOI 10.18568/CMC.V16I46.1901 Strike a pose! A mediação do videoclipe “Vogue” em performances do Carnaval carioca Strike a Pose! Mediations of “vogue” music video in Performances of Brazilian Carnival Simone Pereira de Sá1 Rodolfo Viana de Paulo2 Resumo: O artigo tem por objetivo abordar as mediações do videoclipe da canção “Vogue”, de Madonna, buscando discutir o seu agenciamento de corpo- reidades periféricas em dois momentos: nos anos 1980, quando o videoclipe se apropria e amplia a visibilidade da dança voguing, praticada pela cena cultural LGBT nova-iorquina, e duas décadas depois, quando o videoclipe é, por sua vez, uma das referências para jovens dançarinos gays nas suas apresentações em alas das escolas de samba do Carnaval carioca. Assim, interessa-nos discutir as zonas de diálogo e de tensão entre performances locais e globais, tendo como aportes teóricos a discussão sobre “cosmopolitismo estético” (REGEV, 2013) e sobre as divas pop como ícones culturais (JENNEX, 2013), entre outras referências. Palavras-chave: Vogue; Madonna; performance; videoclipe; escolas de samba. Abstract: The article discusses the mediations of Madonna’s Music Vid- eo Vogue, seeking to discuss its agency on peripheral bodies in two moments: the first, in the 80s, when the song and music video appropriates the steps and gestures of Voguing created by the LGBT scene in New York; and the second moment, two decades later, when the music video is, in turn, one of the refer- ences for young, black and gay dancers who practice Vogue dance during their presentations on Rio de Janeiro’s samba schools in the present time.

Habitat, Body, Story: Picturing the shifting nature of home Prologue Upon visiting the Grotto of the Nativity in Bethlehem, Annie Dillard touched a hole, painted with a fourteen-pointed star, in the cobblestone floor of a deep, dingy, poorly decorated cave. The hole marks the spot where Jesus was born. Supposedly, it used to be a stable with a manger, but the landscape has changed over time, now completely covered with monasteries “like barnacles.”1 Annie’s present day experience of Jesus’s birthplace is an odd collision. The story of Jesus in Christian religious texts, the actual body and life of Jesus, and the surrounding habitat or setting of his birth exist in different time frames. The landscape of the Earth’s surface and the structures we build on it continually recycle.

  • Enjoy Your Journey with the Lord!
    “Daily Confession of Faith” In Christ I am anointed and a powerful person of God. I am a joint-heir with Jesus and more than a conqueror.

God has commanded His blessing on my storehouses. He has opened His Good treasures and I shall lend and not borrow. I am the head and not the tail. He has given me power to make wealth. I dwell in the secret place I have His protection and provision. God is my refuge, my fortress I am not afraid of the snare of the fowler. No Evil shall befall me and no plague shall come nigh My dwelling. God has given his angels Charge over me and they are bearing me up in their hands lest I dash my foot against a stone, as declared in Psalms 91. I Peter 2:9 establishes I am a chosen generation, A royal priesthood, a holy nation. I am a peculiar person called out of darkness Into His marvelous light.

  • 7 Relationship Problems and How to Solve Them Here's How to Resolve the Most Common Relationship Problems and Get Your Love Life Back on Track
    7 Relationship Problems and How to Solve Them Here's how to resolve the most common relationship problems and get your love life back on track. By Carol Sorgen WebMD Feature Reviewed by Louise Chang, MD It's the rare couple that doesn't, sooner or later, run into a few bumps in the road. If you recognize ahead of time what those relationship problems can be, you'll have a much better chance of weathering the storm, experts say. Ideally, a couple should discuss certain basic issues -- such as money, sex, and kids -- before they decide to start their life together. Of course, even when you do discuss these issues beforehand, marriage (or a long-term, live-in relationship) is nothing like you think it's going to be. In spite of the fact that every marriage experiences relationship problems, couples who are successful have learned how to manage them and keep their love life going, says marriage and family therapist Mitch Temple, MS, author of The Marriage Turnaround. They gain success in marriage by hanging in there, tackling problems, and learning how to maneuver through the complex issues of everyday married life. Many do this by reading self-help books, attending seminars, browsing articles on the Web, going to counseling, observing other successful couples, or simply by trial and error. Here are some common issues and ways to resolve them: Relationship Problem: Communication All relationship problems stem from poor communication skills, says Elaine Fantle Shimberg, author of Blending Families. "You can't communicate while you're checking your BlackBerry, watching TV, or flipping through the sports section," she says.

  • Idioms-And-Expressions.Pdf
    Idioms and Expressions by David Holmes A method for learning and remembering idioms and expressions I wrote this model as a teaching device during the time I was working in Bangkok, Thai- land, as a legal editor and language consultant, with one of the Big Four Legal and Tax companies, KPMG (during my afternoon job) after teaching at the university. When I had no legal documents to edit and no individual advising to do (which was quite frequently) I would sit at my desk, (like some old character out of a Charles Dickens’ novel) and prepare language materials to be used for helping professionals who had learned English as a second language—for even up to fifteen years in school—but who were still unable to follow a movie in English, understand the World News on TV, or converse in a colloquial style, because they’d never had a chance to hear and learn com- mon, everyday expressions such as, “It’s a done deal!” or “Drop whatever you’re doing.” Because misunderstandings of such idioms and expressions frequently caused miscom- munication between our management teams and foreign clients, I was asked to try to as- sist. I am happy to be able to share the materials that follow, such as they are, in the hope that they may be of some use and benefit to others. The simple teaching device I used was three-fold: 1. Make a note of an idiom/expression 2. Define and explain it in understandable words (including synonyms.) 3. Give at least three sample sentences to illustrate how the expression is used in context.
