L’estiu del mil·lenni

Ja tornem a ser aquí. El periple estival s’ha pogut acabar amb èxit i el retorn a la rutina es va percebent a través dels símptomes que auguren l’arribada del denigrat setembre. Entre aquests símptomes, el més fiable és l’aparició televisiva de la publicitat sobre fascicles de tota mena, en especial els dedicats a l’aprenentatge d’idiomes: quan des de la tele t’anuncien que és un bon moment per iniciar la col·lecció definitiva per aprendre anglès, has d’acceptar que, inevitablement, tot s’ha acabat i que l’estiu està tocat de mort.

Doncs, som-hi. Tindré temps d’anar explicant tot allò que m’ha aportat aquest període de recés, sobretot les impressions del meu periple mediterrani, ara però vull començar parlant de llibres. La lectura és una activitat que, a l’estiu, creix en nombre de lectors i en el pes i volum dels llibres llegits; i, aquest any, el fenomen editorial estival s’anomena Stieg Larsson, autor dels Best-Sellers de la trilogia Millennium.

A aquestes alçades no us explicaré qui és Larsson --se n’ha parlat fins i tot als programes del cor, entre Campanarios i Duquesses d’Alba--. Però sí que vull parlar-vos de certes reaccions que els llibres han generat en articles d’opinió i cartes de lectors en la premsa diària del país: se n‘ha discutit la qualitat literària i l’operació de màrqueting que ha envoltat aquesta mena de productes.

És un fal·lera recurrent entre certs opinadors, crítics literaris i lectors en general atacar qualsevol èxit editorial massiu i comparar-lo amb Hamlet, El Quixot o Crim i càstig. La comparació no és possible, bàsicament perquè una cosa són obres d’art universal i una altra és literatura de masses. Larsson fa literatura, probablement no la millor literatura, segurament els personatges acaben essent massa tòpics, l’argument té algun fil deslligat i el domini del llenguatge no ratlla la perfecció. I...?

Si Raymond Chandler feia literatura, Larsson també, perquè n’és un excel·lent continuador. Millennium s’assenta amb seguretat sobre els fonaments que van bastir la novel·la negra: pren els personatges nascuts a la gran depressió nord-americana dels anys 30 i els trasllada a la Suècia del segle XXI. Hi trobem el rerefons social, farcit de crítica a un capitalisme sense escrúpols i a un estat que se salta les normes de legalitat que ell mateix ha establert. Hi trobem l’heroi caigut en desgràcia i incomprès que lluita per recuperar la reputació, i que alhora és un àvid faldiller. Hi trobem l’antiheroi, aquí en versió femenina, salvatge incorregible que viu al marge de la llei i de les normes socials...

Sens dubte, Larsson domina el gènere policíac i sap crear el suspens necessari per enganxar el lector. I amb autors de novel·la negra com ell o Henning Mankell (que us recomano efusivament) Suècia s’ha fet un lloc important a les llibreries de tot el món i l’hem retrobada aquest estiu a les nostres platges, ara però en forma de llibre i no de dona, com als anys 70.

Per cert, aquelles sueques rosses, altes, dolces i de formes exuberants que tant em van fer badar, ja han perdut tot l’encant, ara la sueca que no m’ha deixat dormir aquest estiu és una hacker morena, baixeta, senzilla i amb molt mala llet; la millor troballa de Millennium: Lisbeth Salander, un personatge que a Larsson se li va anar fent gran a les mans, un secundari que acaba essent protagonista indiscutible.

This might be a bit off-topic but I believe there are a lot of smokers here on www.blogger.com. I decided to find a good manufacturer of e-cigarettes. I'm done with paying so much for normal smokes.A friend recommended [url=http://www.insanereleases.info/greensmokef.html]G Smoke[/url] According to their website this is how they described their product:
"Green Smoke offers supreme Electronic cigarettes with spendable cartridges that compose of the highest smoke volume in the industry. With a collection of flavors and nicotine levels, Green Smoke's™ patented product offers convenience and exhibit performance that is unmatched. G Smoke products have been independently tested for safety."
I'm thinking of buying them. Anyone else have experience with this e-cigarette?

So how do we go about identifying which are the honest online casinos and which are not? Well, a lot has changed since the earliest online casinos set up shop in their offshore locations in 1996. Self-regulation (at best dubious) led to accreditation of bodies like ECOGRA (E-Commerce Online Gaming Regulation and Assurance). Look out also for evidence of good customer care, positive feedback from online casino forum members and decent helpline facilities. The more honest online casinos will offer (will actively boast) 24 hour live chat and live email support as well as toll-free telephone help. Does it have a mailing list you can join to keep in contact with the latest tournaments and special offers? Trust lies at the heart of any subscription process (or people would not subscribe) so that in itself is a good indicator of an honest online casino.



If you did the same you'd have deposited $550 via Neteller $550, and have a total balance of $980. (PLUS another $50 in value for the Bentley Key Code.
Cash Balance: $550.00
Bonus Balance: $430.00
Total Balance: $980.00 (Almost doubled your money from the start)

For all you rockabilly people out there I recommend The Enough Fanzine. It is one of the first punk zines on the internet.

They have throusands of interviews from the most popular bands all over the world. Check them out online: [url=http://www.enoughfanzine.com]Enough Fanzine[/url]. Best of it all, they are 100% non-profit and just helping the scene!

Looking forward to your recommendations.

Cheers!

If you are a novice gambler you probably haven’t heard the term but professional bettors who earn their livelihood from sports betting use the method all the time taking advantage of the variance in odds from the opinions of the diverse number of bookmakers. Even though it sounds as if it is a no risk situation that may not always be the case and there some issues that can cause you to lose.

Still, there are tons of bettors looking through rose colored glasses for the holy grail of betting systems that will let them make money without risking any. Well, there is a way to do that and it is called work! Gambling is called gambling for a reason, it’s risky. Let’s take a look at some sports betting systems.

Overall, the majority of people feel that the United States is missing the boat on this matter. Instead of simply regulating the industry like the rest of the countries in the world, they are trying to get rid of it altogether. This may have some benefits, but for the most part there is a chance that it could end up back firing. It will be interesting to see what the Senate decides to do in the upcoming months.

The second group fares a lot worse because, unfortunately for them, the variance in the "value" range will be different for each of them, and it will also vary considerably from bet to bet, making the concept of value mere words (and therefore meaningless). he reality is that the majority of people do not have any means whatsoever of identifying "true" value bets.

4.) At the same time, do not become very greedy and play with only as many cards as you can play with. You need to watch and mark the winning numbers in each card and there is a time gap of only ten seconds between card draws. Hence, if you are unable to manage many cards, it is a waste. You have to complete winning combination and call 'bingo' before other players to claim your prize. [url=http://www.bingokisses.com]online bingo games[/url] If the second called number is say N36, probabilities of the next number not ending in 2 or 6 is more. The first six called numbers could have different digit endings. Thereafter, there could be pairing of one or more of such ending digits. [url=http://www.bingokisses.com]free bingo cash[/url] The easiest way to avoid falling victim to a scam is to know the site on which you choose to play. One of the ways this can be accomplished is to talk to other people who play online Bingo to get a feel for the sites they use and what kind of experiences they have had with the site. In most cases, word of mouth is going to be your most accurate means of determining the legitimacy of a Bingo or any other gaming site. Of course, if you are using a free site, knowing about the experiences that others have had with the site is not quite as important, although you do not want to waste your time with something that is unlikely to produce any beneficial results. Of course, a free site is not going to give you much in the way of monetary compensation, and the prizes may be minimal, but for those who are addicted to the game, the challenge is there.

Your aim would be to cover the prescribed pattern with the bingo letters, by coordinating the letters and numbers called. The patterns can be anything like, u shape, t shape, etc, though it usually is horizontal or vertical. As soon as you get the pattern, you should shout bingo and you get the prize. In case there are others who shouted at the same time as you, the prize will be shared among all winners.

So I bit the bullet -- bought myself a [url=http://www.ordio.com.au/products/Fatman-iTube-Red%252di-with-Speakers.html]Fatman iTube Red[/url] and I am very happy to say that I am an extremely happy customer. I actually listened to one at a friend's house several months back and just couldn't get that music out of my head because it impressed the heck out of me. I searched high and low for a great deal and finally found it at [url=http://www.ordio.com.au]Ordio[/url] in Westfield Bondi Junction. I telephoned them first and asked every question I could think of and everything was answered to my satisfaction so I went ahead and made the purchase. Shipping was fast. Everything was as it should be. I'm pretty darn happy and I'm playing it right now. Not sure if they post outside of Oz but you won't be sorry if they do.

Amazing sound...
