- Aldara -- Swelling
* Aldara is for external use only. Avoid getting Aldara around your lips, or in your eyes, nose, mouth, or anus. If you get Aldara in your eyes or mouth, rinse right away with cool water. - The Ritual -- Person
The fissure of art from ritual is the most democratizing force on this planet. The ability of an individual to turn their pages and break from the tyranny of the storyteller represents the greatest urges of a human who has freed up enough of her time to think about the world not as a training film but a symphony. The pause button is the greatest invention of the twentieth century. The political movement for all individuals to be able to create their own texts just by their own readings creates new rituals of independence and interdependence. The novelist knows the reader has so many very many choices when they fly, so their text is fundamentally a personal entreaty. You don’t need Moses to tell you what the novel wants from you. - John Cabot -- Genoa Italy
Search his early life to know that John Cabot was born Giovanni Caboto, probably in Gaeta, Italy, around 1455. He was the son of a merchant. Cabot was living in Venice by 1461 and became a citizen in 1476. He married Mattea around 1482 and they had three sons: Ludovico, Sancio and Sebastiano. - Ben Kingsley -- Miscellaneous
Still, Kingsley was lacking in real theatrical experience and so it came as something of a surprise when, in 1967, he was taken on as a member of the Royal Shakespeare Company. At his audition, performed for esteemed director Trevor Nunn, he made speeches from Byron, Hamlet and the more contemporary Little Malcolm And His Struggle Against The Eunuchs. As at RADA, he was horribly nervous, but thankfully Nunn was looking deeper, seeing in Kingsley what he'd later describe as an element of danger and recklessness. He was 23 and he was on his way. - World War I Causes
Causes and consequences of the first World War / Stewart Ross. Ross, Stewart. London, England : Evans Brothers, 1997. 78 p. : ill. (some col.), facsims. (some col.), col. maps, ports. ; 26 cm. - Muslim
At the center of both traditional American life and the lives of the generally more recent Muslim immigrants is the family. As Shahed Amanullah, an engineer who lives in San Franciso, California, puts it, " American values are, by and large, very consistent with Islamic values, with a focus on family, faith, hard work, and an obligation to better self and society." - Jane Sibbett -- Chris Sarandon
Charles Dexter Ward's wife (Jane Sibbett) enlists the help of a private detective (John Terry) to find out what her husband (Chris Sarandon) is up to in a remote cabin owned by his family for centuries. The husband is a chemical engineer, and the smells from his experiments (and the delivery of what appear to be human remains at all hours) are beginning to arouse the attention of neighbors and local law enforcement officials. - Sojourner Truth -- Peter
Truth had a life-changing religious experience during her stay with the Van Wagenens, and became a devout Christian. In 1829 she moved with her son Peter to New York City, where she worked as a housekeeper for Elijah Pierson, a Christian Evangelist. In 1832, she met Robert Matthews... known as Matthias Kingdom or Prophet Matthias, and went to work for him as a housekeeper.[3] In a bizarre twist of fate, Elijah Pierson died, and Robert Matthews and Truth were accused of stealing from and poisoning Pierson. Both were acquitted and Robert Matthews moved west.[4] - Jean Renoir -- La Chienne
Renoir planned the leading roles in La Chienne (1931) for Catherine Hessling and Michel Simon. His decision not to abandon the project when the studio insisted on casting not his wife but an actress they had under contract caused the final breakdown of his marriage. - The Shawshank Redemption -- Morgan Freeman
One of the biggest sleeper hits of the nineties, The Shawshank Redemption is modern Hollywood storytelling at its most absorbing. Writer-director Darabont paces the narrative perfectly, as convicted wife-killer Robbins survives 30 years in an unforgiving penitentiary on friendship, trust and subtle manipulation. Robbins is cool and enigmatic, Freeman is warm and human - their mutual respect and admiration is touching... cynical you may be. From a novella by Stephen King.
