French feminism refers to a branch of feminist thought from a group of feminists in France from the 1970s to the 1990s. French feminism, compared to Anglophone feminism, is distinguished by an approach which is more philosophical and literary. Its writings tend to be effusive and metaphorical, being less concerned with political doctrine and generally focused on theories of "the body." The term includes writers who are not French, but who have worked substantially in France and the French tradition such as Julia Kristeva and Bracha Ettinger.
The French author and philosopher Simone de Beauvoir wrote novels; monographs on philosophy, politics, and social issues; essays; biographies; and an autobiography. She is now best known for her metaphysical novels, including She Came to Stay and The Mandarins, and for her 1949 treatise The Second Sex, a detailed analysis of women's oppression and a foundational tract of contemporary feminism. It sets out a feminist existentialism which prescribes a moral revolution. As an existentialist, she accepted Jean-Paul Sartre's precept existence precedes essence; hence "one is not born a woman, but becomes one." Her analysis focuses on the social construction of Woman as the Other. This de Beauvoir identifies as fundamental to women's oppression. She argues women have historically been considered deviant and abnormal and contends that even Mary Wollstonecraft considered men to be the ideal toward which women should aspire. De Beauvoir argues that for feminism to move forward, this attitude must be set aside.
In the 1970s French feminists approached feminism with the concept of écriture féminine, which translates as female, or feminine writing.Helene Cixous argues that writing and philosophy are phallocentric and along with other French feminists such as Luce Irigaray emphasizes "writing from the body" as a subversive exercise.The work of the feminist psychoanalyst and philosopher, Julia Kristeva, has influenced feminist theory in general and feminist literary criticism in particular. From the 1980s onwards the work of artist and psychoanalyst Bracha Ettinger has influenced literary criticism, art history and film theory. However, as the scholar Elizabeth Wright pointed out, "none of these French feminists align themselves with the feminist movement as it appeared in the Anglophone world."

Mnoge su knjige napisane o ženskoj fascinaciji cipelama, ali tajna nikada nije sasvim razotkrivena. Na listi misterija u muško-ženskim odnosima cipele zauzimaju visoko mesto.Muškarci nikada neće razumeti tananu vezu koja postoji izmedju svakog para cipela i njihove vlasnice, kao ni tvrdnju da žena nikada ne može imati previše cipela.Cipele su jedan od najstarijih čovekovih pronalazaka, iako su to u početku bile samo nevešte konstrukcije od trave, kože ili krzna, namenjene zaštiti stopala od oštrog kamenja i hladnoće.Obuća se često spominje i u Bibliji, a crteži cipela otkriveni su i na zidovima egipatskih hramova i grobnica faraona. Medjutim, tek negde oko 1850. godine počinje da se razlikuje leva i desna cipela, sve do tada je većina obućara pravila istu za obe noge.Izum prve cipele s petom pripisuje se Leonardu da Vinčiju. Obuća sa štiklom bila je prvo hit medju pripadnicima jačeg pola evropske aristokratije, što ima sasvim jednostavno objašnjenje.U to doba jahanje je bilo deo svakodnevnog života, a nešto viša peta obezbedjivala je stabilnost noge u uzengijama. Tadašnjim mačo tipovima štikle su služile da ostanu u sedlu.Kako su se jahanjem uglavnom bavili bogati, jer je sirotinja za to vreme morala da radi, štikle su ubrzo postale statusni simbol, pa su sa obuće za jahanje ubrzo prenete i na svakodnevnu. Muškarci koji su u to doba držali do sebe, šetali su se na potpeticama.Venčanje Katarine Mediči i vojvode od Orleana 1533. godine uvelo je štikle i u žensku modu. Naime, mlada je za venčanje poručila par cipelica sa štiklom od čuvenih majstora iz Firence, koji su i u ono doba bili "zakon".Kad je kraljevska nevesta prošetala svoj par, takve cipele postale su hit medju pripadnicama evropske aristokratije.I tako je pocela pomama za štiklama... Sledećih 200 godina otprilike, što je viši bio status dame u društvu, viša je bila i peta.A onda je Francuska revolucija, uz brojne druge, mnogo važnije tekovine, promenila i odnos prema štiklama. Odjednom je postalo nepristojno pokazivati bilo koji znak noblesa: visina potpetica se smanjila, a dame su se ponovo približile zemlji.Krajem 19. veka štikle su počele da se vraćaju u modu, i od tada su neprestano prisutne.Kroz istoriju, obuća, pogotovo ženska, dobijala je sve više na značaju, u modnom, kulturnom i fenomenološkom smislu, a danas u 21. veku, dobila je i vrlo laskavu titulu najvećeg ženskog fetiša. Kao što većina žena nikada nema šta da obuče ili nikada nije dovoljno mršava, tako nikada nema ni dovoljno cipela u svom plakaru.
Italijani su medju prvima shvatili neobuzdanu žensku potrebu za posedovanjem dobre obuće, pa se italijanske cipele i dan danas smatraju najkvalitetnijim na svetu.Većina žena dala bi i poslednju paru za cipele koje im "oduzimaju dah". Cipele za žene imaju čarobnu moć, poput one staklene cipelice koja je pomogla Pepeljugi da povrati svog princa.Posebno slabost su cipele sa visokim štiklama. Tu ništa ne menja ni činjenica da je čak 43 odsto žena zbog štikli bar jednom u životu zadobilo lakše povrede a osam odsto njih ozbiljne prelome.Zanimljiv je i podatak iz jednog američkog istraživanja da prosečna žena četvrtinu svojih cipela obuje samo jednom, kao i da 13 odsto žena skriva nove cipele od svojih partnera. Da izbegne gundjanje.Pri tom se služe raznim trikovima: donose kući cipele bez kutije ili optuže muškarca da "nikad ništa na njoj ne primeti", pa tako i ne zna da su joj to ustvari "stare" cipele.Pokušavajući da shvate ovu žensku fascinaciju neki podsećaju da kupovina nove odeće ume da bude neprijatna ako se ispostavi da se žena ugojila i ne može da udje u svoj uobičajeni konfekcijski broj.Cipele, medjutim, "ne pitaju" ni kilograme ni za godine i uvek dobro izgledaju.Poslovna zena

It takes half an hour to cross the pool (by gondola, naturally). The spa has a room full of real snow. The bathrooms have gold-plated mirrors on the FLOOR. As Sharon, Paris and Mariah open Europe's most shameless temple of excess, can anyone afford to stay there?Sharon Stone strides confidently onto the stage a few feet in front of me, and you can hear an appreciative murmur pass through the well-heeled crowd. Dressed in Roberto Cavalli couture, the 51-year-old star looks thinner than ever and with not a blonde hair out of place.
She is here in Antalya, Turkey, for the launch of what's being billed as the grandest and most expensive hotel in Europe - the Mardan Palace.
As the normally articulate actress begins her hosting duties, she stumbles over a word on the teleprompter. Champagne costs £25 a glass, toilets are remote-controlled, guests select linen and pillow firmness from a 'pillow menu' alongside each bed and the private beach has been created from 9,000 tons of the silkiest white sand imported from Egypt.
The hotel itself - where suites cost up to £11,500 a night - is a temple to bling, fitted out with 2,500 tons of gold, 500,000 crystals and 23,000 square metres of Italian marble.
The pool is a full five acres of sparkling blue water, across which guests can take gondola rides that take 30 minutes.
In the middle of the pool sits a sunken aquarium with 2,400 fish, so you can literally 'swim with the fishes' (including sharks) - albeit on the other side of a thick wall of glass.
Meanwhile, the waterside Italian restaurant (one of 11 on site) is stocked with Hermés crockery worth £1.35million. In a room full of the international press, I find the singer Seal, Italian actress Monica Bellucci, Gere, Stone and Tom Jones. Not exactly natural bedfellows, if you'll excuse the phrase...

It's hard out there for a hottie. Take it from Jessica Biel and Megan Fox, who both recently expressed their outrage that they can't get good parts because they're just too good-looking. Yeah, because Kate Winslet, Natalie Portman, Halle Berry, Angelina Jolie -- they're just trolls, really. Or maybe Megan and Jessica's array of nearly-naked spreads in Maxim, FHM and the like have made producers pass them over when they're casting for the Eleanor Roosevelt biopic. Either way, their lives are very hard.

Darko Miličić, košarkaš NBA tima Memfis grizlis, juče se u Novom Sadu oženio svojom dugogodišnjom devojkom Zoranom Markuš, a među posebnim zvanicama bili su njegov kolega Marko Jarić sa suprugom Adrijanom Limom, kojoj je ovo prvi boravak u Srbiji. Još pre nekoliko meseci Darko Miličić je najavio veliku svadbu u Srbiji – rečeno, učinjeno. Ceremonija crkvenog venčanja održana je u Sabornoj crkvi svetog Nikole u Sremskim Karlovcima. Divnoj ceremoniji prisustvovalo je stotinak najbližih, među kojima i Marko Jarić sa suprugom Adrijanom Limom, slavnom brazilskom manekenkom. Društvo im je pravio Markov otac Srećko Jarić, koji je čekajući početak svečanog čina veselo razgovarao sa Dušanom Dudom Ivkovićem, selektorom košarkaške reprezentacije Srbije. Adrijana i Zorana drugarice Adrijana je mladina bliska drugarica, s obzirom na to da Darko i Marko igraju u istom klubu, te je, pored želje da konačno upozna Srbiju, doputovala kako bi Zorani pružila podršku i dala joj nekoliko bračnih saveta. Tokom svadbe njih dve su razgovarale i o budućim majčinskim ulogama, budući da obe očekuju prinove, Zorana za mesec i po dana, a Lima za četiri meseca.

Uz pomoć najsavremenijih Microsoftovih tehnologija preko 100 najznačajnijih dela domaćih književnika postalo je dostupno u digitalnom oblikuU svečanoj sali Učiteljskog fakulteta u Beogradu danas je predstavljen projekat „Antologija srpske književnosti“, napravljen sa ciljem da se zainteresovanim čitaocima širom sveta putem informacionih tehnologija olakša pristup i čitanje preko 100 kapitalnih književnih dela najznačajnijih domaćih autora. Odabir dela zastupljenih u ovoj digitalnoj ediciji napravio je Učiteljski fakultet u Beogradu, a njihovu digitalizaciju je izvršio Microsoftov Razvojni centar u Beogradu, u okviru aktivnosti programa „Partner u učenju“.„Za nas je važno što će deca u Srbiji i dijaspori sada na brz i jednostavan način moći da dođu do najznačajnijih dela srpske književnosti. Mi imamo mnogo sjajnih autora, ali ih ne promovišemo dovoljno. Ovaj projekat će nam pomoći da ih više promovišemo, i zahvalio bih se Microsoftu i Učiteljskom fakultetu na ključnom doprinosu ovom, za Vladu Republike Srbije, izuzetno značajnom projektu. Njegova najveća vrednost će biti to što će knjiga, reč, slovo, naš jezik i pismo ponovo ući u naše domove, ali sada na jedan drugi način, putem računara i Interneta“, istakao je dr Žarko Obradović, ministar prosvete u Vladi Republike Srbije.Ova biblioteka digitalizovanih dela srpske književnosti je dostupna svima potpuno besplatno, i u funkciji je promocije književnih i kulturnih dobara u međunarodnim okvirima, kao i podizanja opšte i digitalne pismenosti građana Republike Srbije. „Smatram da je ovo veliki korak za našu kulturu, ne samo za književnost, i za naše đake, studente i profesore, jer će omogućiti lak pristup ovim knjigama svima, bilo u zemlji i u inostranstvu“, rekao je otvarajući današnju promociju dr Aleksandar Jovanović, dekan Učiteljskog fakulteta u Beogradu, institucije koja je dala nemerljiv doprinos projektu „Antologija srpske književnosti“.U procesu digitalizacije korišćene su najnovije tehnologije, razvijene u Razvojnom centru Microsofta u Srbiji. Svih 110 do sada dostupnih digitalizovanih knjiga se mogu preuzeti u najnovijem Microsoft Word formatu dokumenata koji podržavaju svi softverski paketi i operativni sistemi, i koji olakšava čitanje na ekranu računara. „Tehnologije koje razvijamo ovde u Beogradu postaju sastavni deo Microsoftovih proizvoda dostupnih širom sveta, a jedan od projekata na kojem radi naš Razvojni centar, sistem za prepoznavanje štampanog teksta, nam je omogućio da doprinesemo ovom, za srpsku kulturu veoma važnom projektu, i na to smo svi, kao tim, jako ponosni,“ rekao je Bodin Drešević, direktor Microsoftovog Razvojnog centra u Srbiji. „Ovaj projekat je poklon korporacije Microsoft srpskom obrazovanju i građanima, i smatramo da će doprineti očuvanju srpske kulturne baštine i njenoj promociji širom sveta na kvalitetan i moderan način. Smatramo da projekti poput ovog predstavljaju pravi način na koji velike svetske firme mogu doprineti razvoju Srbije, a mi kroz program „Partner u učenju“ u Srbiji već 5 godina doprinosimo širenju opšte i digitalne pismenosti učenika i studenata u Srbiji“, pojasnio je Vladan Živanović, generalni direktor Microsofta u Srbiji.„Antologija srpske književnosti“ sadrži preko 100 dela dostupnih za preuzimanje preko Interneta: od srednjovekovnih žitija srpskih svetaca i srpske narodne poezije i proze (sabrana dela Svetog Save, odabrane srpske narodne pesme i priče), preko kapitalnih dela srpske književnosti XVIII i XIX veka, pa sve do najvažnijih dela s početka XX veka koja nisu obuhvaćena autorskim pravima (pesme Branka Radičevića, Milana Rakića, Jovana Dučića, Nušićeve i Sterijine komedije, knjige za decu Jovana Jovanovića Zmaja). Za neka od važnih književnih dela XX veka dozvolu za objavljivanje u ovoj ediciji su dali sami autori, među kojima su Ljubomir Simović, Svetlana Velmar-Janković, Ljubivoje Ršumović, Grozdana Olujić i mnogi drugi.„Čini mi veliku čast i zadovoljstvo da danas zajedno otvorimo jedan ovakav Web sajt, koji predstavlja neophodno i važno mesto za mlade, ali i za stare, dakle za sve koji žele da čitaju najznačajnija dela naše književnosti. Ona će biti predstavljena na jednom digitalnom, virtuelnom prostoru, bez zidova i prepreka“, naglasila je Svetlana Velmar-Janković, književnica, obraćajući se prisutnima na današnjoj promociji.Svi naslovi uključeni u ovu digitalnu antologiju su na srpskom jeziku, u ćiriličnom pismu, i dostupni su za preuzimanje u Microsoft Word formatu svim zainteresovanima na Web lokacijama www.ask.rs i www.antologijasrpskeknjizevnosti.rs

There's nothing sexier than hair that looks like it's been disheveled by a roll in the sheets. Mimic the effect by scrunching large sections of damp hair in your hands as you move a blow-dryer in circles around your head (hold it about six inches away). This fluffs the hair rather than matting it down. Another trick: Rub your crown lightly, like it's a baby's belly, for a few seconds to create slept-in texture.
A tousled high ponytail suddenly looks romantic simply by slipping on a thin, stretchy headband near your hairline. The band pushes up the hair slightly at the crown, adding a gentle lift.
