Cuando lo normal en una banda que quisiera un cierto reconocimiento en la música de principios de los 90 era mantener una estética descuidada e incluso sucia, la aparición de unos tipos elegantemente vestidos, con aire de estrellas del rock de los 70 y una cierta aureola de lujo, supuso un soplo de aire fresco en aquella tan controvertida escena del rock americano de los 90.Efectivamente se tra

While NYC kicked off its 38th annual gay pride march yesterday, other cities were celebrating — or fighting for — their first. Another striking illustration of how uneven sociopolitical landscapes get across borders.
In India, gay rights supporters came out in the streets of Calcutta, Bangalore and New Delhi. Some wore masks, fearing persecution and violence [...]

Here at GLuxe, we're avid cigar smokers. And as avid cigars smokers, we have tons of cigar cutters lying around the pad. Most, unfortunately, are of the cheapo variety that we received for free either from cigar events or as part of our frequent cigar orders. As jet-setters, what we should be using to cut our La Aurora 1495 cigars is a XIKAR Xi3 Havana cigar cutter. Each Xi3 is customized by hand. The artist fits a handle made of French maple wood to the Xi3 cutter then hand paints the handles in either green, yellow, red, blue or black. Once the handle is painted, he carefully adds pieces of actual cigar brands to the handle then preserves the layout forever in several layers of clear varnish. Once sanded and polished, the final work of art is ready to cut the finest cigars in the w

....GENERAL: the overall impression of the ideal Havana Brown is a cat of medium size with a rich, solid color coat and good muscle tone. Due to its distinctive muzzle shape, coat color, brilliant and expressive eyes and large forward tilted ears, it is comparable to no other breed.HEAD: when viewed from above, the head is longer than it is wide, narrowing to a rounded muzzle with a pronounced break on both sides behind the whisker pads. The somewhat narrow muzzle and the whisker break are distinctive characteristics of the breed and must be evident in the typical specimen. When viewed in profile, there is a distinct stop at the eyes; the end of the muzzle appears almost square; this illusion is heightened by a well-developed chin, the profile outline of which is more square than round.

Atualmente apenas na Rússia (Moscou), Cuba (Havana) e Brasil (São Paulo), são promovidos anualmente os tão importantes como necessários torneios de boxe infantis, envolvendo garotos da faixa etária dos 13 a 14 anos.Estes três países montam sua base e o sucesso das competições chega a entusiasmar dirigentes, técnicos e os próprios lutadores. Em alguns momentos custa a crer a qualidade do boxe apresentado pelos meninos.Parecem veteranos pela facilidade no disparo de todos os golpes, pelas esquivas e a forma como caminham pelo ringue.Em São Paulo a tendência é crescer cada vez mais, considerando que no ano passado 31 garotos se inscreveram, e neste 2007, o numero chegou a 64, mais do que o dobro.Sites de referencia:http://ezinearticles.com/Youth Boxing in Cuba (vídeo)Fotos no Google:Boxing for Kids

Rica Peralejo's two-story home in Filinvest Subdivision, Quezon City, is a charming repository of things that once belonged to another era. "I really wanted it to look like almost everything is mana or given by somebody," says Rica. "I want it to be a house of stories na when somebody points at something, I have a story to tell about that little thing." The 150-square-meter space that Rica has called home since November of 2006 is relatively large for one person. But there's hardly a time when she's all by her lonesome. She almost always has company over—relatives, friends, and members of Victory Christian Fellowship, or VCF, the church Rica attends. The first thing you notice when you enter her place is a 14-foot-long dining table dominating what would traditionally be the living room. "I don't need a living room in my house," Rica volunteers. "In our old house, we have a big living room, but my mom and dad only use it to watch TV. The rest of the time, the whole family goes t
We had just left a baseball game near midnight in Havana when a thief made a grab for our bags. It might have been a simple snatch and grab, instead of a mugging, if I hadn't tackled the crook. His two pals pummeled me, scampering away as a sizable crowd looked on with indifference. I lost a camera, my eyeglasses and the shoes off my feet in the scuffle; my companion, Irene, lost her money, credit cards and, temporarily, her faith in human nature. We gained the experience of seeing a Cuban hospital and police station up close, as we were shuttled between both institutions for the next six hours, getting perfunctory treatment for my scrapes and filling out endless police reports. They caught one of the assailants, a skinny teenager, and recovered the credit cards. I don't know who got to keep the money and camera. It was three days into our weeklong trip to Cuba, and we had just $150 left between us. (Irene had to use $18 of those remaining funds to buy me a pair of canv
The Provincial Court of Madrid has turned away claims by Bacardi that it is the owner of the Havana Club rum brand name in Spain. The court said that selling a rum not made in Cuba using "Havana" in the name could mislead Spanish consumers.We can expect to see more of this in the coming years as beverage giants Pernod Ricard and Bacardi battle it out over who has the rights to the Havana Club rum brand.Bacardi, which fled Cuba nearly a half century ago during the communist takeover, says it is the rightful owner of the brand it had once manufactured in the country. Bacardi started producing Havana Club for sale in the U.S. last year. Pernod Ricard has produced Havana Club in a joint venture with Cuba Ron since 1994.Products made in Cuba are banned from being sold in the U.S.

The health problems facing Fidel Castro have many wondering what might happen to relations between Cuba and the United States after his death. For one famous brand of rum, now appears to be the perfect moment to boost production.Havana Club International SA, a joint venture between the government controlled CubaRon and French drinks firm Pernod Ricard, is investing in a major new distillery in San Jose, just outside of Havana, that will double its output of Havana Club. The company plans to be the number one dark rum producer in the world within six years.The U.S. government began enforcing an embargo against Cuba in 1962 as part of the Cold War battle against Communism. Having access to the U.S. market denied has hurt a number of industries in Cuba and limited economic opportunities for its citizens.
