Evropljanka –Srpkinja je oličenje srpstva u evropskom ruhu. Ona je od glave do pete mondenski obučena, na oficirskim balovima i matineima. Govori francuski jezik i iz dobre je I politički vrlo aktivne kuće. Otac je, bar jednom godišnje, obično tik uz princa prestolonaslednika, a majka je bliska prijateljica visoko-poštovane supruge ministra. Udaje se nevina oko dvadesete za ucenog rodoljuba i postovanog mladog gospodina. Brak manje vise prihvata patrijahalno, jer polozaj Srbije nikada nije dozvoljavao ni patrijahalnost istoka i ni raspusnost zapada da preovlada onu drugu kategoriju. Tako je bilo nekada. Danas je srpkinja podeljena na ruralno i urbano poreklo i malo je ostalo od umerene i uzdrzane otmenosti, a mnogo više je okrenuta modernim tokovima I praćenju modela sa zapada. Urbana Srpkinja je utopljena u Sex and the City I ima probleme iste kao i proslavljena, svojatana i opste prihvacena Bridget Jones I tako je, iako je standard užasno različit, bliska, svim svojim virtualnim prijateljicama iz `novog sveta` i Skadinavije. Ona je na večitoj razmedji istoka i zapada – i domaćica i PR manager. Ume da bude bezobrazno otmena kada celu svoju platu da na parfem koji je videla u Vogue-u dok je listala na jednom od prodajnih mesta jer Vogue I dalje dosta košta za srpske standarde. Njena sudbina je često oskrnavljena urodjenim i naslednim kompleksom pripadnika istočne Evrope i sramotom dok čeka u redu za vizu. Tada ona prestaje da bude Evropljanka i postaje ponosna srpkinja koja je navikla i na bombe i na redove, ali i na premijere baleta okruzena ‚‚la creme‚‚ beogradskim društvom...

Having maintained his family horological traditions, Louis-Ulysse concentrated on developing precise pocket watches and chronometers based upon innovative ideas...

Camp is an aesthetic in which something has appeal because of its bad taste or ironic value.
A part of the anti-academic defense of popular culture in the sixties, camp came to popularity in the eighties with the widespread adoption of Postmodern views on art and culture. “Camp” is derived from the French slang term se camper, which means “to pose in an exaggerated fashion.”As part of camp, drag typically consists of feminine apparel, ranging from slight make-up and a few feminine garments, typically hats, gloves, or high heels, to a total getup, complete with wigs, gowns, jewellery, and full make-up. In the case of drag kings or female male-impersonators, the opposite is true and often involves exaggerated displays of traditional male sexuality. Camp has been from the start an ironic attitude, embraced by anti-Academic theorists for its explicit defense of clearly marginalized forms. As such, its claims to legitimacy are dependent on its opposition to the status quo; camp has no aspiration to timelessness, but rather lives on the hypocrisy of the dominant culture.

Much like the closely related notion of kitsch, camp has traditionally been viewed as hard to define. The terms "camp" and "kitsch" are often used interchangeably; both may relate to art, literature, music, or any object that carries an aesthetic value. However, "kitsch" refers specifically to the object proper, whereas "camp" is a mode of performance. Thus, a person may consume kitsch intentionally or unintentionally. Camp, however, as Susan Sontag observed, is always a way of consuming or performing culture "in quotation marks."
Celebrities with camp personas include Adam West,John Waters, Pee-wee Herman, William Shatner, Elton John, Freddie Mercury, Boy George, Gary Coleman, Fabio, Richard Simmons, Jim Carrey, Dennis Rodman, David Beckham, Dame Edna, Divine (Glen Milstead), RuPaul, Man Parrish, Tiny Tim, Wayne Newton, Boy George, Liberace, David Lee Roth, David Hasselhoff, Bette Midler, Klaus Nomi, Graham Norton, Madonna, the Dixie Chicks, Toby Keith, David Walliams, Mr. T., Nick Rhodes, Chuck Norris and Brian Molko
Celebrities in the camp community who are gay icons include Diana Ross, Liza Minnelli, Dame Shirley Bassey, Elizabeth Taylor, Brigitte Bardot, Kylie Minogue, Bette Midler, Cher, Cyndi Lauper, Joan Collins, Madonna, Christina Aguilera and Joan Rivers.

Lik Alana Forda potice iz pera scenariste Maxa Bunkera i crtaca Magnusa. Ovaj strip se moze svrstati u smjer literature i filmova nastalih kao reakcija na knjige i filmove o agentu 007. Naime, Ian Fleming je sa svojim James Bondom dugo odusevljavao publiku, a taj veliki val odusevljenja prvi je rasplinuo film "Casino Royal" gdje je James Bond minimiziran, parodiran, ismijavan. U tom smjeru je razvijan i strip Alan Ford. U ovom stripu, koji raspreda pustolovine tajnog agenta Alana Forda, jasno se shvaca nova situacija : spijunska pustolovina je izgubila ozbiljnost, kriminalisticka spletka se razrijedila u burlesku, likovi nisu vise svi u jednom komadu, oznaceni znakom junastva ili podlosti, vec su iznijansirani, puni trikova, jadnici uhvaceni u kostac sa spletkama vecim od sebe.Najvaznije je da Alan Ford, od kojega su autori htjeli stvoriti antijunaka, prokleto lici na obicnog covjeka, pun je slabosti, uvijek ga prati smola, nespretan je i plasljiv, iako mu sreca na kraju nije posve okrenula ledja i ima samilosti prema njegovoj krhkosti; kad bi igrao loto, cak bi i dobio ! Crtac Magnus je pred ocima imao lik glumca Petera O'Toolea, samo s ponesto izmjena. U saglasnosti s piscem teksta, bacio je Alana Forda u najbjednije slojeve spijunaze.Bio je to dakle, korak dalje od filma "Casino Royal" gdje se parodija odnosi na likove, a ne na sredinu u kojoj se oni krecu, uvijek bogatu, raskosnu i gdje se svi razmecu poput dokonih milijardera, jeduci u najmanju ruku kavijar i pijuci Don Perignon. Naoruzanje tajnih agenata svima je poznato : pistolj s prigusivacem, sprave za mucenje, licni avioni itd. Alan Ford je, naprotiv, imao prigusivac od stare konzerve, pistolj koji obicno oznacava start na trkama, sprave za mucenje su muciteljeve ruke. A licni avioni su kojekakve letjelice koje polete samo ako letaci uhvate dobar zalet. Kancelarije nimalo ne nalikuju na one pune tajanstvenih napravica, u kojima dejstvuju agenti poput 007. Alan Ford, bijedno placen slucajni spijun, bez unutarnjeg poziva, clan je grupe koja zivi u prljavim misjim rupama pod neboderima od stakla i betona, u kojima (kako sugerisu autori) stanuju drugi : oni koji nemaju nesrecu da se bave tako bijednim poslom kao sto je onaj tajnog agenta. Nasilje? Ima ga malo, ali smijesnog. Na kraju svoje prve pustolovine Alan Ford biva pohvaljen zato jer ni u koga nije pucao. Pomislit cete da je to znak plemenite duse, da je sef dobar covjek koji ne zeli zrtve. Ali on sam objasnjava Alanu nesporazum u koji je upao: ne treba pucati zato jer su meci skupi! Ali ubiti nozem ne samo da je dopušteno nego je i pozeljno.Ako je 007 neodoljivi donzuan, muskarcina koji osvaja i pokorava sve zene koje mu se nadju na putu, jednom Alanu, iako nije ruzan, nikad nista ne polazi za rukom sa zenama. Kad neka zena razgovara s njim, on se sramezljivo crveni.
ps. sa nekog hrvatskog sajta :) Mislim da sam imala desetak godina kada sam ga otkrila...Alan Ford je bio moj `special` drug par godina. Ovaj post mu dugujem ..i Bob Rocku i Sir Oliveru :)
Muskarac, kazu, sanja o savrsenoj, pametnoj, samo njegovoj, izuzetnoj zeni posebnih dimenzija I sklonosti. O Gildi, o plavom andjelu, o Sugar Cane. Ona je dream girl, traum madchen ili vec prilagodjeno prevodu. U srpskom narodu je klise ono sto se I danas cuje, a I moze da procita u zenskim magazinima: dakle, domacica u kuci, ku*va u krevetu I dama u drustvu. Preneti ovo na razlicite kulture, religije I nacije, svesce se na manje vise istu dimenziju, formulu za uspesan brak I put do srca tog neodoljivog I razmazenog bica - muskarca. `Savrsena` znaci ona koja za vama, ma koliko vi ne bili savrseni, uzdise, odusevljava se vasim gestovima, svakodnevnim aktivnostima, ima razumevanja za sve vase zelje, prohteve I dosadne detinjaste zahteve I pored toga vas hrani I izgleda apsolutno savrseno, uzasno je verna, je ali je pritajni muski san svih vasih prijatelja, ne trazi puno u krevetu, ali vam bezuslovno daje sve. Savrsena zena vristi kada sa vama dozivljava orga*am...Sa druge strane, obicnost u reci krije I sasvim drugu znacenje. Sta znaci biti obican, common, simple, plain? Ne mora da bude samo u pojmu obicnog nacina zivota tako slicnom svakom od nas. Obicnost moze I da ima ono drugo znacenje, gledano kroz prizmu posebnosti. Ispraznost zene je mozda bolnija od ispraznosti muskarca. Kada zena pokusa da, po njoj, svoj nesavrseni izgled dotera sminkom I frizurom, outfitom I shvati da nema ono nesto sto bi je izdvojilo iz mase, sto bi joj pomoglo da je ljudi zapamte vec kod prvog upoznavanja, je ono sto moze da je ubije u trenutku. Tada postaje lutkica, dobija pridev `slatka` I simpaticna sto je mozda ono sto najvise vredja. Njena nemoc da iz te `slatke` predje u `posebnu` je prisutna od trenutka kada joj se po prvi put obrate na taj nacin i tada shvati vecnu istinu da nemati harizmu, auru, personality… znaci imati jedno obicno nista. Ona to nece imati nikad, jer kazu covek se radja sa tim, sa belegom prepoznatljivosti, to se ne dobija ni obrazovanjem, ni sredinom. Ovde nailazimo I na tip zene koja zeli da strci, da ne pripada okolini ili tom posebnom trenutku, koja zeli da to tako smisljeno bude I pri tom se uzasno trudi da bude neobicna ili nova, a nije...

Take off your topcoat
To wonder why
Put on your raincoat
Give up your birthright
And don't you cry'
Cause in
A storm is a-comin'
And you'll be too surprised
To wonder whyAnd it will Rain rain
Go away, go away
Rain rain
Come back again another day
Come back again another day
