(TrendHunter.com) There are literally thousands of possible designs for a tattoo, and it seems as though people are always finding new places to put them. The new trend in the world of tattoos is to get permanent ink on…
“Slumdog Millionaire”, ou “Quem Quer Ser Um Milionário?” aqui no Brasil, é o filme queridinho dessa temporada de premiações. Grande vencedor no Globo de Ouro, BAFTA, entre outros, provavelmente deve levar também o Oscar de Melhor Filme amanhã.
Dirigido por Danny Boyle (“Trainspotting”, “Extermínio”), o filme é uma fábula moderna, o “Cidade de Deus” indiano, de um moleque pobre que participa de uma espécie de Show do Milhão e está prestes a ganhar 20 milhões de rúpias.
No Ocidente, “Slumdog Millionaire” virou cult, já lá na Índia não vem sendo tão adorado assim, já que muitos o chamam de “a pornografia da pobreza”, “uma série de clichês do Terceiro Mundo para os ricos do Primeiro Mundo se divertirem”.
Uma das cenas mais famosas do filme é justamente os créditos finais, uma dança que acabou virando motivo de repetições no YouTube por amadores e até em programas de auditório. A música “Jai Ho”, do compositor indiano A.R. Rahman, também foi indicada ao Oscar.
Os créditos, no estilo gráfico de Bollywood, foram produzidos por Matt Curtis, designer especialista nesse tipo de trabalho. Ele recentemente realizou também os créditos de “Hellboy II: The Golden Army” e “In Bruges”.
Nem todos pensam assim, mas ATENÇÃO, eu considero a cena um SPOILER, então se você não assistiu o filme ainda, recomendo não dar play no vídeo abaixo. De todo modo, “Slumdog Millionaire” entrou em pré-estréia nos cinemas brasileiros nesse fim de semana. Vá ver.
A new Saturday appears, which means a new issue has to be released.

Evian(R) Natural Spring Water brings the French Alps to South Beach by hosting an educational and luxurious space at this year’s South Beach Wine & Food Festival. Using both traditional and non traditional tactics, Evian will educate consumers and industry influencers about the brand, showing why it is the premier choice for fine dining and, ultimately, differentiating Evian from any other water.
To demonstrate how our palate-cleansing water choices can actually make or break a fine dining experience, Master Sommelier Nathan Cloutier from Miami’s La Goulue and Gino Santangelo from The Forge Miami will host Water Tasting Seminars at the Evian Tent in the Grand Tasting Village throughout the weekend. Here, they will highlight the often overlooked attributes of premium natural spring water in a fine dining experience by taking attendees through a sensory analysis and discussing flavor influencers unique to Evian — such as origin, filtration, bottling process, and the brand’s unique mineral composition.

In what they saw more of as an advocacy message rather than a positive ad focusing on the historic inauguration of new U.S. President Barack Obama, CNN rejected the ad submitted for the State of the Union Address on Feb. 24.
CNN claims the ad “suggests a position in favor of the advocacy message, without having permission of the persons involved.”
Brian Burch of CatholicVote.org reacted to CNN’s claims: “This is absurd. Our ad does not suggest that Barack Obama is pro-life. Instead, we make the obvious point that Obama’s mother gave birth to a child that ultimately became the 1st African American President. This is a fact, not an opinion.”
FactCheck.org described the NARAL ad: “An abortion-rights group is running an attack ad accusing Supreme Court nominee John Roberts of filing legal papers ’supporting… a convicted clinic bomber’ and of having an ideology that ‘leads him to excuse violence against other Americans’ It shows images of a bombed clinic in Birmingham, Alabama. The ad is false.’”
CNN issued a statement regarding the NARAL ad attacking John Roberts. It stated: “CNN says, it accepts advocacy advertising from responsible groups from across the political spectrum who wish to express their views and their opinions about issues of public importance, so the viewers can further research claims made within the ads.”

Adgabber’s Elyse drew our attention to this fresh ad for Audi, which features an extreme skier doing crazy shit all over San Francisco — a city known for its treacherously steep hills, railed streets, and slow-moving, trolley-shaped obstacles.
