Mein Lieblingssport

Saturday, April 11th, 2009

Vielleicht man würde nicht im Allgemeinen Tanz betrachten, ein Sport zu sein, weil es nicht ein Spiel ist. Es wird nicht für konkurrierend gehalten. Es gibt im Allgemeinen keinen Sieger am Ende der Leistung. Ich glaube, dass es ein Sport ist. Es erfordert viel Widmung, Konzentration, und ist physikalisch fleißig.Im Ballett gibt es keine Verlierer, Gewinne jedes gute Tänzers.

Mein Lieblingssport ist Ballett und klassischer Tanz. Als ich sehr jung war habe ich Ballett  jahrelang studiert. Als ich in Alaska wohnte, studierte ich vom berühmten russischen Ballett. Hier führen Tänzer von einer russischen Ballettschule was sie einen deutschen Tanz nennen.

Ich habe nicht jahrelang getanzt. Das letzte Mal ging ich zu sehen, dass das Ballett in Philadelphia war. Ich habe Kinder von meiner Kirche mitgenommen, um “den Nussknacker” und “Swan Lake” zu sehen. Mein Lieblingstanz ist “Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy.

Wir sahen auch “Revelations” von die berühmte Alvin Ailey Tanz-Truppe.

Ich habe sehr viel Respekt für das Lebenswerk von Balanchine.

Ich interessiere mich auch für klassische Tänze von den verschiedenen Kulturen, z.B. Spanien, Indien und Japan zu sehen. Man kann über ein Land und seine Kultur viel lernen, indem es ihren Tanz zu sehen. Der Tanz erzählt  eine Geschichte, die zur Kultur der Tänzer einzigartig ist. Die Kostüme sind im Allgemeinen sehr schön. Jeder Samstag-Morgen sehe ich indische Filme, die immer eine Tanzszene haben. Ich habe  Salsa getanzt, als ich jüng war, aber ich tanze nicht mehr viel. . Ich habe nie indische Tänze gelernt  aber ich möchte es gerne  lernen. Ich habe gerne der Film “Umrao Jaan” angesehen. In diesem Film führt Ashwarya Rai-Bachan einen schönen Tanz, ” Salaam.”

    Okay, So I thought I’d play around with iLike and share with my friends some of my favorite music. As you can see (and probably already know from my previous posts here, Twitter , & FB, I’m all over the place. Please comment and let me know what you like or feel free to add your favorites to my iLike Widget on the right. Many of my favorites aren’t on the list because they aren’t available yet on the application.  I’m sure when my mood changes, I’ll create another one to share. Isn’t it interesting how music makes you remember people, places & events from long ago?
    Oh well, here goes….

    A day in the life of a Sundance filmmaker

    Wednesday, January 21st, 2009

    PARK CITY, Utah–The Sundance Film Festival is all about film buzz. Word spreads quickly about the biggest tearjerkers, the most overhyped films, the pleasant surprises, and the ones mostly likely to make their way to the cineplex.

    Filmmaker Ondi Timoner starts her day Monday, the day of her film’s world premiere, by getting her make-up done professionally. She knows she has many photo shoots ahead.

    What you don’t hear, however, is what it’s like for the makers of such films as they anticipate showing their work to the world for the very first time. What is their range of emotions as they prepare for what could be a standing ovation or a mass exodus before the credits even roll?

    Ondi Timoner, who’s here competing with her documentary, We Live in Public, gave CNET News some insight into the mania of festival life for a filmmaker by allowing us to shadow her Monday, the day of her film’s world premiere. We’ll tell you all about that jam-packed day, but first some background on the film and Timoner.

    We Live in Public documents the tumultuous life of Josh Harris, who Timoner refers to as “the greatest Internet pioneer you’ve never heard of.” It’s a sort of cautionary tale about the effect the Web is having on society.

    During the 1990s dot-com boom, Harris was considered a sort of “Warhol of the Web” by creating the first Internet television network, Psuedo.com, and then an underground bunker in Manhattan where 100 people lived together on camera for 30 days before getting shut down as a millennial cult by the Federal Emergency Management Agency and the New York police on New Year’s Day 2000.

    Harris’ next experiment, which led him to a mental breakdown, was a six-month stint living with his girlfriend under 24-hour live surveillance online, long before the days of Justin TV.

    “World Changed Colors,”

    Thursday, January 15th, 2009

    At first blush, “ARTiculation” looks like a free-form poetry slam driven by some well-intentioned young performers. But don’t be fooled. “ARTiculation” is a sharp, smart, funny, and fearless evening of stories and comments told through spoken word and music, delivered by five powerhouse performers and one DJ, all of whom surprise and enchant with their unadorned honesty and lyric dexterity.

    From left: Terri Deletetsky, DJ Reazon, Danny Balel, Marvelyn McFarlane, Nik Walker, and Tory Bullock in ''ARTiculation.''

      “Worldly similarity, if it were possible, is not Christian equality. Moreover, to bring about worldly similarity perfectly is an impossibility. Well-intentioned worldliness actually admits this itself.

      “My life is absolutely meaningless. When I consider the different periods into which it falls, it seems like the word Schnur in the dictionary, which means in the first place a string, in the second, a daughter-in-law.
