85.000 films historiques totalement gratuits disponibles ici et maintenant Après le succès des 700 films rares et gratuits disponibles ici, nous avons trouvé un nouveau trésor, offert à tous, encore une fois.

On peut trouver par exemple le bombardement d’Hiroshima, la marche de Neil Armstrong sur la lune, l’enterrement de la reine Victoria, le vol transatlantique de Lindbergh ou encore le premier discours de Hitler en devenant le chancelier allemand en 1933. Autrement dit, les archives vont de 1896 à 1976 et c’est une mine d’images, contenant des films représentants les moments les plus importants de ces 100 dernières années. C’est une folie sans fin pour les cinéphiles, et les amoureux de l’histoire.

Culture. Pas de diffusion avant 88 ans : l'album du Wu-Tang Clan qui se prend pour un Picasso Le nouvel album du Wu-Tang Clan, Once Upon a Time in Shaolin, n’existe qu’en un seul exemplaire. Et celui qui l’achètera – aux enchères – pourra le commercialiser, mais pas avant 88 ans. Le nouvel album du Wu-Tang Clan, groupe de rap new-yorkais créé dans les années 90, existe en un seul exemplaire. Il compte 31 titres, et de nombreuses participations : Cher, Redman, et même des joueurs du FC Barcelone. Ultime particularité : il ne pourra pas être diffusé commercialement avant 88 ans. “Au bout de cette durée, le copyright, qui comprend les droits de diffusion publique et de commercialisation, sera automatiquement transféré au propriétaire de l’œuvre”, explique Cilvaringz, le producteur de l’album, à Forbes. Le Wu-Tang Clan a créé un minisite pour accompagner la vente aux enchère de l’exemplaire unique de Once Upon a Time in Shaolin, qui se fera avec Paddle 8, maison de ventes aux enchères connues pour avoir vendu des œuvres de Jeff Koons et Damien Hirst, précise le site Billboard.
How To Actually Win A Fist Fight Ok, well, with the response from yesterday's post, I felt compelled to go ahead and do this. Without further ado: You know it has to be said, first sentence, first paragraph: the best way to win a fist fight is not to get into one in the first place. No shit, sherlock. Every single mens magazine who has ever attempted to publish an article like this has started (and ended) exactly that way and is usually devoid of any real information - sometimes because someone on the editorial staff wanted to avoid putting the periodical at risk for a lawsuit; other times because the author has absolutely no clue what they’re talking about, so they cop out with this “Verbal Judo Wins The Day!” It’s common sense - avoid fighting if at all possible. So... The Basics First, you need to know a few things: You are going to get hit.When you get hit, it does not feel good. Confidence CANNOT be overvalued in a fight situation. Your Stance Your stance is the way you stand and position yourself during a fight.

Interpréter l'art : entre voir et savoirs Interpréter l'art : entre voir et savoirs Pour deux raisons au moins, la présence de l'histoire de l'art dans un cycle consacré aux renouvellements de l'observation dans les sciences a de quoi surprendre. La première tient au statut scientifique de l'histoire de l'art : même si elle veut souvent se donner l'aspect d'une discipline scientifique en reprenant les protocoles d'énoncé des sciences dites exactes, l'histoire de l'art n'est pas la science de l'art (traduction imparfaite de l'allemand Kunstwissenschaft) et, si on doit la compter au nombre des sciences humaines (ce que ne fait pas Lévi-Strauss), elle est la science des comportements artistiques humains , une science des pratiques artistiques dont les critères de scientificité sont loin d'être établis.
20 Tree House Pictures: Play-Club Plans to Big-Kid Houses | Designs &Ideas on Dornob Treehouses are more popular than ever, as play spaces for children but also as luxury hotel (and even house) designs for adults. Some of the most fantastic plans and ideas can be traced to specialist designers and builders – and pictures of their work can provide some of the best inspiration (as well as an informal visual guide) for do-it-yourself recreational, residential and commercial tree buildings. Blue Forest is one such company, but far from the only one. The trick is to find a balance between safe and fun – railings are a must, as are sturdy supports, but whimsy and asymmetry help make these places feel more organic and engaging for younger visitors in particular. Some take on the character of a playground, with ropes, ladders and low elevations – or are more like the traditional club-house spaces we associated with ‘tree houses’ from our childhood. Some are like mansions, fortresses or castles – just set up on stilts instead of sitting on the ground.

Warhol & The Computer I don’t tend to associate legendary Pop artist Andy Warhol with the computer. My first thoughts go to Campbell Soup cans, Marilyn Monroe, and his film works. While most of Warhol’s creative output happened in the 1960s, when only a few serious artists had access to and used computers, he continued to paint and create artworks up until his death in 1987. Towards the end of his life, he began to create works using Amiga computers. It should be no surprise that Warhol was interested in computers; he’d been fascinated with popular culture for decades and computers had moved beyond being mysterious tools to become items encountered in everyday life. That alone would get Warhol interested in them as commodity objects, but add to that the artistic potential of such machines and it’s not at all a stretch to see his interest.

Surviving The Apocalypse: Come With Me If You Want To Live News (2) Previews Review Videos Screenshots Cheats and Walkthroughs Over the holiday break, my brother and I went to see the new George Clooney picture, Up in the Air. Afterwards, we were discussing what we thought of the film, and through the course of conversation, the subject naturally arose of what the two of us would do in the case of an apocalyptic event. (This is how we think.) The Andrew Pfister Plan for Surviving an Apocalyptic Event (beta): 1) Determine nature of apocalyptic event: religious or secular? This is a tricky one, but probably the most important to determine as soon as possible, as it dictates your ensuing course of action. But if the good Lord has other things to do and the apocalypse is triggered by your fellow man (or visitors from beyond), then you have a bit more control over the situation, and that’s where Steps 2 through 5 come in. 2) Perform threat assessment. 3) Procure food, water, medicine, and armaments. 4) Establish shelter and gather resources.
