STEVE McQUEEN | HOLLYWOOD’S ANTI-HERO & TRUE SON OF LIBERTY « Th Steve McQueen– ironically displaying his signature, perfect balance of allegiance and rebellion. “I live for myself and I answer to nobody.” –Steve McQueen Steve McQueen personified the “anti-hero” in Hollywood at a time when the emerging counterculture in America was challenging the very definition of what a true “hero” is. We all know McQueen raced cars and motorcycles, but his story goes a lot deeper than that. After the Marines, McQueen used his G.I. All this from a kid born into what many would consider a throw-away life. “When I believe in something, I fight like hell for it.” –Steve McQueen A young Steve McQueen Steve McQueen in a studio still shot from The Great Escape.

Anna Bodnar, Фото и рисунки, арт и креативная реклама Bobines Sur le trottoir de l'Elysée, derrière les photographes et caméramen, quelques passants s'arrêtent, observent la grille, les portes s'ouvrent pour une voiture puis une autre. -C 'est beau les drapeaux, dit Maxime dans les bras de sa mère. Un bus passe, le chauffeur lache le volant pour montrer ses muscles , d'autres aussi en conduisant se tournent vers les caméras pour plaisanter. Sur un mètre de trottoir, une ambiance de Tour de France règne. C'était la voiture suiveuse en fait précédeuse car un journaliste s'écrie , "Elle arrive en vélo" , précipitation des objectifs, un vélo jaune, une veste rose, un sourire , elle franchit la ligne de l'Elysée dans le bruit saccadé de machine à coudre des appareils photos. Au départ d'étape , une heure plus tard , Christiane Taubira lèvera la main tout en tenant le guidon pour saluer quelques supporters , tandis que la moto d'un paparazzi s'engage dans le sillage du peloton ministériel. © Bruno Levy

Daily Fiction Fiction 247:Chaque année… chaque année ça arrive. Après le 12 vient le 13 et après le 13, immanquablement, le 14 : 14 septembre, date unique. Unique en son genre, vraiment. D’abord, et pour commencer tranquillement, c’est l’anniversaire de Zoe qui, elle, est ma petite amie, ou tout comme, depuis un peu plus de deux ans. Par un hasard du calendrier, Zoe et moi nous sommes rencontré un 14, un jeudi si je me souviens bien, mais c’était en mars. Quoi qu’il en soit, et puisque nous en sommes encore à fêter les « et demi », ce 14 septembre est donc l’anniversaire de nos deux et demi et il va falloir que je lui trouve un cadeau. Mais quand donc est-elle morte cette pauvre petite me demanderez-vous ? Alors voilà, nous sommes le 14 septembre et je m’apprête à supporter une nouvelle fois le poids écrasant de cette journée unique entre toutes en me rappelant qu’en 1983, ce jour-là, Amy Winehouse venait au monde.

Blog Sometimes you have to get away from the regular weekend deal of washing socks, scooping out the cat poop, and scrubbing the lineoleum. Occasionally, if you live in a cool place, you can take a vacation pretty close to home. As luck would have it, there's an old log cabin on a farm not too far from where I live that you can rent out and also chill out. As luck would continue to have it, there's a real nice trout stream running through the property. Winter's been pretty mean this year, so weather in the 50s and sunny meant it was a perfect chance to ride the ECR decked out as the new and improved Trout-Stalker 3000. Here's Iowa in Spring. This is looking back the way I'd just come Me and my shadow and my Surly Pants Here's the setup on the ECR. Here's the place we stayed. Here's me reeling in the big one. And... here's me losing the fish. Later on, we did some high quality resting. Then there was a crappy sunset. So, get out there. Maybe you could go here:
Coolness Is Timeless This photo comes from 1969. Sammy was playing at a charity concert in Philadelphia. It was a benefit to help raise funds to deter gang violence. Sammy was always involved in a lot of different causes to help out others. That's one of the things I really admire about him. P.S. I'm to answer a series of questions with one word answers. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. 18. 19. 20. 21. 22. 23. 24. 25. 26. 27. 28. 29. 30. 31. 32. 33. 34. 35.
