DC Comics is resurrecting the classic comic book character as a lesbian, unveiling the new Batwoman in July as part of an ongoing weekly series that began this year. The 5-foot-10 superhero comes with flowing red hair, knee-high red boots with spiked heels, and a form-fitting black outfit. "We decided to give her a different point of view," explained Dan DiDio, vice president and executive editor at DC. "We wanted to make her a more unique personality than others in the Bat-family. That's one of the reasons we went in this direction." (DC Comics, like CNN, is a division of Time Warner.) The original Batwoman was started in 1956, and killed off in 1979. The new character will share the same name as her original alter ego, Kathy Kane. And the new Batwoman arrives with ties to others in the Gotham City world. "She's a socialite from Gotham high society," DiDio said. "She has some past connection with Bruce Wayne. And she's also had a past love affair with one of our lead characters, Renee Montoya." Montoya, in the "52" comic book series, is a former police detective. Wayne, of course, is Batman's true identity -- but he has disappeared, along with Superman and Wonder Woman, leaving Gotham a more dangerous place. The "52" series is a collaboration of four acclaimed writers, with one episode per week for one year. The comics will introduce other diverse characters as the story plays out. "This is not just about having a gay character," DiDio said. "We're trying for overall diversity in the DC universe. We have strong African-American, Hispanic and Asian characters. We're trying to get a better cross-section of our readership and the world." The outing of Batwoman created a furor of opinions on Web sites devoted to DC Comics. Opinions ranged from outrage to approval. Others took a more tongue-in-cheek approach to the announcement. "Wouldn't ugly people as heroes be more groundbreaking?" asked one poster. "You know, 200-pound woman, man with horseshoe hair loss pattern, people with cold sores, etc.?" DiDio asked that people wait until the new Batwoman's appearance in the series before they pass judgment. "You know what? Judge us by the story and character we create," he said. "We are confident that we are telling a great story with a strong, complex character." DiDio spent most of the morning fielding phone calls from media intrigued by the Batwoman reinvention. "It's kind of weird," he said. "We had a feeling it would attract some attention, but we're a little surprised it did this much."<img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/27169679-3851883804937762455?l=islandboymultimedia.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Munnakhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05840600696623532944noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27169679.post-22526824791933162512008-01-22T21:32:00.000-08:002008-12-09T15:47:43.856-08:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_P35Umkqttp0/R5bRqgqGOuI/AAAAAAAAALQ/IU13k4EQGYU/s1600-h/Picture+9.png"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_P35Umkqttp0/R5bRqgqGOuI/AAAAAAAAALQ/IU13k4EQGYU/s320/Picture+9.png" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5158540951450696418" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_P35Umkqttp0/R5bRqgqGOvI/AAAAAAAAALY/4PDCMsy78AY/s1600-h/Picture+8.png"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_P35Umkqttp0/R5bRqgqGOvI/AAAAAAAAALY/4PDCMsy78AY/s320/Picture+8.png" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5158540951450696434" /></a><div class="blogger-post-footer">NEW YORK (AP) -- Years after she first emerged from the Batcave, Batwoman is coming out of the closet.

DC Comics is resurrecting the classic comic book character as a lesbian, unveiling the new Batwoman in July as part of an ongoing weekly series that began this year. The 5-foot-10 superhero comes with flowing red hair, knee-high red boots with spiked heels, and a form-fitting black outfit. "We decided to give her a different point of view," explained Dan DiDio, vice president and executive editor at DC. "We wanted to make her a more unique personality than others in the Bat-family. That's one of the reasons we went in this direction." (DC Comics, like CNN, is a division of Time Warner.) The original Batwoman was started in 1956, and killed off in 1979. The new character will share the same name as her original alter ego, Kathy Kane. And the new Batwoman arrives with ties to others in the Gotham City world. "She's a socialite from Gotham high society," DiDio said. "She has some past connection with Bruce Wayne. And she's also had a past love affair with one of our lead characters, Renee Montoya." Montoya, in the "52" comic book series, is a former police detective. Wayne, of course, is Batman's true identity -- but he has disappeared, along with Superman and Wonder Woman, leaving Gotham a more dangerous place. The "52" series is a collaboration of four acclaimed writers, with one episode per week for one year. The comics will introduce other diverse characters as the story plays out. "This is not just about having a gay character," DiDio said. "We're trying for overall diversity in the DC universe. We have strong African-American, Hispanic and Asian characters. We're trying to get a better cross-section of our readership and the world." The outing of Batwoman created a furor of opinions on Web sites devoted to DC Comics. Opinions ranged from outrage to approval. Others took a more tongue-in-cheek approach to the announcement. "Wouldn't ugly people as heroes be more groundbreaking?" asked one poster. "You know, 200-pound woman, man with horseshoe hair loss pattern, people with cold sores, etc.?" DiDio asked that people wait until the new Batwoman's appearance in the series before they pass judgment. "You know what? Judge us by the story and character we create," he said.

Wayne, of course, is Batman's true identity -- but he has disappeared, along with Superman and Wonder Woman, leaving Gotham a more dangerous place. The "52" series is a collaboration of four acclaimed writers, with one episode per week for one year. The comics will introduce other diverse characters as the story plays out. "This is not just about having a gay character," DiDio said. "We're trying for overall diversity in the DC universe. We have strong African-American, Hispanic and Asian characters. We're trying to get a better cross-section of our readership and the world." The outing of Batwoman created a furor of opinions on Web sites devoted to DC Comics. Opinions ranged from outrage to approval. Others took a more tongue-in-cheek approach to the announcement. "Wouldn't ugly people as heroes be more groundbreaking?" asked one poster. "You know, 200-pound woman, man with horseshoe hair loss pattern, people with cold sores, etc.?" DiDio asked that people wait until the new Batwoman's appearance in the series before they pass judgment. "You know what? Judge us by the story and character we create," he said. "We are confident that we are telling a great story with a strong, complex character." DiDio spent most of the morning fielding phone calls from media intrigued by the Batwoman reinvention. "It's kind of weird," he said. "We had a feeling it would attract some attention, but we're a little surprised it did this much."<img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/27169679-901070549702620160?l=islandboymultimedia.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Munnakhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05840600696623532944noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27169679.post-2212672372921143742007-04-11T10:02:00.000-07:002008-12-09T15:47:47.770-08:00<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_P35Umkqttp0/Rh0VyCXvijI/AAAAAAAAAAo/zP0puabf0Qw/s1600-h/PICT0437.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_P35Umkqttp0/Rh0VyCXvijI/AAAAAAAAAAo/zP0puabf0Qw/s320/PICT0437.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5052218306353662514" /></a><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_P35Umkqttp0/Rh0VySXvikI/AAAAAAAAAAw/L-7DprhIipQ/s1600-h/Imagem(857).jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_P35Umkqttp0/Rh0VySXvikI/AAAAAAAAAAw/L-7DprhIipQ/s320/Imagem(857).jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5052218310648629826" /></a><div class="blogger-post-footer">NEW YORK (AP) -- Years after she first emerged from the Batcave, Batwoman is coming out of the closet.

The 5-foot-10 superhero comes with flowing red hair, knee-high red boots with spiked heels, and a form-fitting black outfit. "We decided to give her a different point of view," explained Dan DiDio, vice president and executive editor at DC. "We wanted to make her a more unique personality than others in the Bat-family. That's one of the reasons we went in this direction." (DC Comics, like CNN, is a division of Time Warner.) The original Batwoman was started in 1956, and killed off in 1979. The new character will share the same name as her original alter ego, Kathy Kane. And the new Batwoman arrives with ties to others in the Gotham City world. "She's a socialite from Gotham high society," DiDio said. "She has some past connection with Bruce Wayne. And she's also had a past love affair with one of our lead characters, Renee Montoya." Montoya, in the "52" comic book series, is a former police detective. Wayne, of course, is Batman's true identity -- but he has disappeared, along with Superman and Wonder Woman, leaving Gotham a more dangerous place. The "52" series is a collaboration of four acclaimed writers, with one episode per week for one year. The comics will introduce other diverse characters as the story plays out. "This is not just about having a gay character," DiDio said. "We're trying for overall diversity in the DC universe. We have strong African-American, Hispanic and Asian characters. We're trying to get a better cross-section of our readership and the world." The outing of Batwoman created a furor of opinions on Web sites devoted to DC Comics. Opinions ranged from outrage to approval. Others took a more tongue-in-cheek approach to the announcement. "Wouldn't ugly people as heroes be more groundbreaking?" asked one poster. "You know, 200-pound woman, man with horseshoe hair loss pattern, people with cold sores, etc.?" DiDio asked that people wait until the new Batwoman's appearance in the series before they pass judgment. "You know what? Judge us by the story and character we create," he said. "We are confident that we are telling a great story with a strong, complex character." DiDio spent most of the morning fielding phone calls from media intrigued by the Batwoman reinvention. "It's kind of weird," he said. "We had a feeling it would attract some attention, but we're a little surprised it did this much."<img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/27169679-114730184719867702?l=islandboymultimedia.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Munnakhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05840600696623532944noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27169679.post-1147197400537509292006-05-09T10:46:00.000-07:002006-05-11T19:36:41.670-07:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4362/2854/1600/wineglass.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4362/2854/320/wineglass.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><span style="font-family: lucida grande; color: rgb(192, 192, 192);font-size:100%;" >Fossil vines 60-million-years-old, are the earliest scientific evidence of grapes. The earliest written account of viniculture is in the Old Testament of the Bible which tells us that Noah planted a vineyard and made wine. As cultivated fermentable crops, honey and grain are older than grapes, although neither mead nor beer has had anywhere near the social impact of wine over recorded time. Wine and history have greatly influenced one another.</span> <p style="color: rgb(192, 192, 192);font-family:lucida grande;"><span style="font-size:100%;"><b>MIDDLE EASTERN ORIGINS</b></span><span style="font-family: lucida grande; color: rgb(192, 192, 192);font-size:100%;" ><b><br /> </b>An ancient Persian fable credits a lady of the court with the discovery of wine. This Princess, having lost favor with the King, attempted to poison herself by eating some table grapes that had spoiled in a jar. She became intoxicated and giddy and fell asleep. When she awoke, she found the stresses that had made her life intolerable had dispersed. Returning to the source of her relief, her subsequent conduct changed so remarkably that she regained the King's favor. He shared his daughter's discovery with his court and ...</span></p> <p style="font-family: lucida grande; color: rgb(192, 192, 192);font-family:lucida grande;"><span style="font-size:100%;">Certainly wine, as a natural phase of grape spoilage, was "discovered" by accident and is not an invention of man. It is established that grape cultivation and wine drinking had started by about 4000 BC and possibly as early as 6000 BC. The first developments were around the Caspian Sea and in Mesopotamia, near present-day Iran. Texts from tombs in ancient Egypt prove that wine was in use there around 2700 to 2500 BC. Priests and royalty were using wine, while beer was drunk by the workers. The Egyptians developed the first arbors and pruning methods. Archeological excavations have uncovered many sites with sunken jars, so the effects of temperature on stored wine were probably known.<br /></span></p> <p style="font-family: lucida grande; color: rgb(192, 192, 192);font-family:lucida grande;"><span style="font-size:100%;"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);">My Passion for Arts .</span><br /></span></p> <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4362/2854/1600/theaterface.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4362/2854/320/theaterface.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><span style="color: rgb(192, 192, 192);font-family:lucida grande;" >The world's earliest report of a dramatic production comes from the banks of the Nile. It is in the form of a stone tablet preserved in a German museum and contains the sketchy description of one, I-kher-nefert (or Ikhernofret), a representative of the Egyptian king, of the parts he played in a performance of the world's first recorded "Passion" Play somewhere around the year 2000 B.C. This Egyptian Passion bears a notable resemblance to the Passion Plays of the twentieth century. Its purpose is obviously the same as that of the one at Ober-Ammergau, or the Tyrolean, or the Persian Passion Play of Hussein . . . the principal object, as always, being to keep vivid in the minds of the faithful the sufferings and triumph of a god.</span> <p face="lucida grande" style="color: rgb(192, 192, 192);">In the case of the Egyptian "Passion" the central figure was the legendary king-divinity, Osiris. According to the historical legend, Osiris ruled wisely. He was treacherously murdered and his body was cut in pieces and scattered. His wife, Isis, and his son, avenged his murder, gathered up the pieces of his body for pilgrimage relics, won back his throne and established the cult of Osiris-worship. We know that Passion plays in his memory were performed annually at Abydos, Busiris, Heliopolis, and elsewhere.</p> <p style="font-family: lucida grande; color: rgb(192, 192, 192);">The acting of those days must certainly have been quite as realistic as that of any modern stage, for later Greek historians tell us that many actor-warriors died of the wounds received in the "sham" battles between the enemies of Osiris and the forces led by his son, Ap-uat. The play closes with the resurrection of Osiris as a god and the foreshadowing to all the faithful of their own final resurrection.<br /></p> <p style="font-family: lucida grande; color: rgb(192, 192, 192);"><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">Cidade Velha Cabo Verde</span><br /></p> <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4362/2854/1600/portas.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4362/2854/320/portas.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><span style="color: rgb(192, 192, 192);font-family:lucida grande;" >The city was founded as </span><i style="color: rgb(192, 192, 192); font-family: lucida grande;">Ribeira Grande</i><span style="color: rgb(192, 192, 192);font-family:lucida grande;" > (</span><a style="color: rgb(192, 192, 192); font-family: lucida grande;" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portuguese_language" title="Portuguese language">Portuguese</a><span style="color: rgb(192, 192, 192);font-family:lucida grande;" > for large </span><a style="color: rgb(192, 192, 192); font-family: lucida grande;" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valley" title="Valley">valley</a><span style="color: rgb(192, 192, 192);font-family:lucida grande;" >) by </span><a style="color: rgb(192, 192, 192); font-family: lucida grande;" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ant%C3%B3nio_da_Noli&action=edit" class="new" title="António da Noli">António da Noli</a><span style="color: rgb(192, 192, 192);font-family:lucida grande;" > as the first settlement in Cape Verde in </span><a style="color: rgb(192, 192, 192); font-family: lucida grande;" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1462" title="1462">1462</a><span style="color: rgb(192, 192, 192);font-family:lucida grande;" >.

Opinions ranged from outrage to approval. Others took a more tongue-in-cheek approach to the announcement. "Wouldn't ugly people as heroes be more groundbreaking?" asked one poster. "You know, 200-pound woman, man with horseshoe hair loss pattern, people with cold sores, etc.?" DiDio asked that people wait until the new Batwoman's appearance in the series before they pass judgment. "You know what? Judge us by the story and character we create," he said. "We are confident that we are telling a great story with a strong, complex character." DiDio spent most of the morning fielding phone calls from media intrigued by the Batwoman reinvention. "It's kind of weird," he said. "We had a feeling it would attract some attention, but we're a little surprised it did this much."<img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/27169679-114709320938019087?l=islandboymultimedia.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Munnakhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05840600696623532944noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27169679.post-1146538120159675882006-05-01T19:46:00.000-07:002006-05-19T07:52:34.896-07:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4362/2854/1600/dog1.5.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4362/2854/320/dog1.5.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><span style="font-family:lucida grande;">The Capeverdean Beach Dog</span></span><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4362/2854/1600/pressweels.0.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4362/2854/320/pressweels.0.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><span style="font-family:lucida grande;">This picture was taken in Praia Cabo Verde<br />at the historic Museum of Praia<br />by Munnak (old press machine)maybe the first ones that praia had<br /><br /></span></span><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4362/2854/1600/molas.1.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4362/2854/320/molas.1.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><div class="blogger-post-footer">NEW YORK (AP) -- Years after she first emerged from the Batcave, Batwoman is coming out of the closet. DC Comics is resurrecting the classic comic book character as a lesbian, unveiling the new Batwoman in July as part of an ongoing weekly series that began this year. The 5-foot-10 superhero comes with flowing red hair, knee-high red boots with spiked heels, and a form-fitting black outfit. "We decided to give her a different point of view," explained Dan DiDio, vice president and executive editor at DC. "We wanted to make her a more unique personality than others in the Bat-family. That's one of the reasons we went in this direction." (DC Comics, like CNN, is a division of Time Warner.) The original Batwoman was started in 1956, and killed off in 1979. The new character will share the same name as her original alter ego, Kathy Kane. And the new Batwoman arrives with ties to others in the Gotham City world. "She's a socialite from Gotham high society," DiDio said. "She has some past connection with Bruce Wayne. And she's also had a past love affair with one of our lead characters, Renee Montoya." Montoya, in the "52" comic book series, is a former police detective. Wayne, of course, is Batman's true identity -- but he has disappeared, along with Superman and Wonder Woman, leaving Gotham a more dangerous place. The "52" series is a collaboration of four acclaimed writers, with one episode per week for one year. The comics will introduce other diverse characters as the story plays out.

class="blogger-post-footer">NEW YORK (AP) -- Years after she first emerged from the Batcave, Batwoman is coming out of the closet. DC Comics is resurrecting the classic comic book character as a lesbian, unveiling the new Batwoman in July as part of an ongoing weekly series that began this year. The 5-foot-10 superhero comes with flowing red hair, knee-high red boots with spiked heels, and a form-fitting black outfit. "We decided to give her a different point of view," explained Dan DiDio, vice president and executive editor at DC. "We wanted to make her a more unique personality than others in the Bat-family. That's one of the reasons we went in this direction." (DC Comics, like CNN, is a division of Time Warner.) The original Batwoman was started in 1956, and killed off in 1979. The new character will share the same name as her original alter ego, Kathy Kane. And the new Batwoman arrives with ties to others in the Gotham City world. "She's a socialite from Gotham high society," DiDio said. "She has some past connection with Bruce Wayne. And she's also had a past love affair with one of our lead characters, Renee Montoya." Montoya, in the "52" comic book series, is a former police detective. Wayne, of course, is Batman's true identity -- but he has disappeared, along with Superman and Wonder Woman, leaving Gotham a more dangerous place. The "52" series is a collaboration of four acclaimed writers, with one episode per week for one year. The comics will introduce other diverse characters as the story plays out. "This is not just about having a gay character," DiDio said. "We're trying for overall diversity in the DC universe. We have strong African-American, Hispanic and Asian characters. We're trying to get a better cross-section of our readership and the world." The outing of Batwoman created a furor of opinions on Web sites devoted to DC Comics. Opinions ranged from outrage to approval. Others took a more tongue-in-cheek approach to the announcement. "Wouldn't ugly people as heroes be more groundbreaking?" asked one poster. "You know, 200-pound woman, man with horseshoe hair loss pattern, people with cold sores, etc.?" DiDio asked that people wait until the new Batwoman's appearance in the series before they pass judgment. "You know what? Judge us by the story and character we create," he said. "We are confident that we are telling a great story with a strong, complex character." DiDio spent most of the morning fielding phone calls from media intrigued by the Batwoman reinvention. "It's kind of weird," he said. "We had a feeling it would attract some attention, but we're a little surprised it did this much."<img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/27169679-114620157369593531?l=islandboymultimedia.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Munnakhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05840600696623532944noreply@blogger.com1
