Last year, his agency, Wing in New York, came up with this creative ad campaign for the New York International Latino Film Festival with posters making fun of movie cliches. It generated a lot of buzz online and, according to Naddeo, many of you saw them right here on My Modern Met. For this new set, he was kind enough to email them right to us.

Mary Louise Parker Naked Photos - Mary Louise Parker Ass 1 of 5 Photograph by Christa Renee Watch sexy videos of Mila Kunis, Kate Beckinsale, and Megan Fox >> Dear Ms. Parker, This time, we don't know what to say. It's been what, eight or nine years that we've been together now? So, on behalf of men everywhere, thank you for all the words and the pictures so far, and now the pie, which is really too much. Sincerely, Esquire A Thank-You Note to Men By Mary-Louise Parker To you, whom it may concern: How to Make a Pie Turn your oven to 425 degrees. When that stuff gets cold, take out the bowl and blade and put in 2 3/4 cups of flour, a teaspoon of sugar, and a teaspoon of salt. Slowly pour, like, 7 or 8 tablespoons of the ice water in with the flour gravel and pulse it till it comes together into a ball that isn't sticky. Roll the pucks into circles bigger than a pie.

List of English language idioms This is a list of notable idioms in the English language. An idiom is a common word or phrase with a culturally understood meaning that differs from what its composite words' denotations would suggest. For example, an English speaker would understand the phrase "kick the bucket" to mean "to die" – and also to actually kick a bucket. Furthermore, they would understand when each meaning is being used in context. An idiom is not to be confused with other figures of speech such as a metaphor, which invokes an image by use of implicit comparisons (e.g., "the man of steel" ); a simile, which invokes an image by use of explicit comparisons (e.g., "faster than a speeding bullet"); and hyperbole, which exaggerates an image beyond truthfulness (e.g., like "missed by a mile" ). Idioms are also not to be confused with proverbs, which are simple sayings that express a truth based on common sense or practical experience. Visit Wiktionary's Category for over eight thousand idioms. See also[edit]

Frases célebres de Madame-de-Stael "El amor constituye la historia entera de la vida de una mu­jer: sólo es un episodio en la del hombre." "Yo me alegro de no haber sido hombre, porque entonces hubiera tenido que casarme con una mujer." "El amor constituye la historia entera de la vida de una mujer: sólo es un episodio en la del hombre." "El amor es un símbolo de eternidad. Barre todo sentido del tiempo, destruyendo todo recuerdo de un principio y todo temor a un fin." "Rezar juntos, cualquiera que sea la lengua o el ritual, es la fraternidad de esperanza y simpatía más tierna que los hombres pueden formar en esta vida." "Saber y sentir, he aquí toda la educación." "La libertad es incompatible con el amor. "El hombre debe permanecer alejado para siempre de quienes han perdido su estimación." "Comprenderlo todo hace ser muy indulgente" "El talento no impide tener manías, pero las hace más notables."

Whoa dude Madame de Staël: sentimiento en Revolución « El vuelo de la lechuza (apuntes de Sociofilosofía y Literatura) Madame de Staël (1766-1817) Germaine Necker fue una niña precoz que deslumbró desde muy pronto a familiares y amigos por sus atrevidas intervenciones en tertulias en las que participaba el más alto copete de las luces francesas: Diderot, Helvétius, Mably o D’Alambert. Años más tarde, cuando una de sus obras más celebradas por el incipiente movimiento romántico francés era prohibida por el mismísimo Napoleón, sería considerada como la intelectual que llevó a cabo la unión entre la razón ilustrada y la atronadora fuerza que comenzaba a cobrar el sentimiento; una fusión en la que las ideas de Voltaire y D’Alambert quedaban fusionadas con el núcleo de los escritos de Rousseau. Hoy, quien aspire a destacar tendrá que enfrentarse al amor propio de los demás, y le amenazarán con pasarle el rasero cada vez que suba un peldaño por encima de los demás.

I love sloths Thérésa Tallien Thérésa Cabarrus, Madame Tallien (31 July 1773 – 15 January 1835), was a French social figure during the Revolution. Later she became Princess of Chimay. Life[edit] Early life[edit] She was born Juana María Ignazia Teresa de Cabarrús y Galabert in Carabanchel Alto, Madrid, Spain to François Cabarrus, a French financier, and María Antonia Galabert, the daughter of a French industrialist based in Spain. From 1778 to 1783, Thérésa was raised by nuns in France. The first of her many love affairs was with Alexandre de Laborde; however, the young couple was forced to separate as de Laborde's powerful father, Jean-Joseph de Laborde, disapproved of her. Thermidor and Directory[edit] Her husband joined the conspiracy to oust Robespierre, and on July 27, 1794 (9 Thermidor), Thérésa was released. Marriage to Riquet[edit] Tallien's power waned and he and Thérésa divorced in 1802. She had become one of the most famous women of her age, and she resented this role.
