From Director Damián Szifron and a great cast Ricardo Darín, Oscar Martínez, Leonardo Sbaraglia, Érica Rivas, Rita Cortese, Julieta Zylberberg, and Darío Grandinetti that makes each character a different world around you. A waitress adds a special ingredient to an arrogant loan shark’s meal in one of several tales dealing with extremes of human behavior. With great energy in some stories more than others, stress and depression for many people could result in a well and interesting dark comedy with certain tragedy. It was co-produced by Agustín Almodóvar and Pedro Almodóvar. The film’s musical score was composed by Gustavo Santaolalla so now debuts on Blu-ray, DVD and digital HD in 122 minutes in Spanish language with English subtitles. All these elements can be enjoyed in each scene with deception and revenge make it true artistic vision.

The Globetrotters have played games on ice rinks, in dusty bullrings, haylofts, rooftops, empty swimming pools, on board aircraft carriers, on top of desks put together, and even during a rainstorm. The world famous Harlem Globetrotters, featuring some of the greatest athletes and entertainers on the planet, were at Staples Center in their famous tour “Washington Generals Revenge Tour.”In this show these great trotters played a portion of each game with a camouflage basketball as a sign of respect to all who protect our freedom. Big stars such as Big Easy Lofton, Ant Atkinson, Hi-Lite Bruton, Thunder Law, Bull Bullard, Firefly Fisher and Moose Weekes, plus female stars TNT Maddox, T-Time Brawner and Sweet J Ekworomadu* were received as heroes in LA.
In general terms this show is very enjoyable and exceptional. Even the half time show was entertaining and fun. This was definitely a family event and well worth the money. The players are very talented and this show includes comedy, dance, and amazing basketball. The guys keep the fans entertained. Also before the game started they had entertainment on the floor then after the game they had a free autograph session with the players. They were really nice and even posed for a few pictures with the kids. I would definitely recommend this show.
Cirque du Soleil comes with Dralion in Long Beach,CA

Long Beach Arena in Long Beach will have six performances only of Dralion from November 1 – 4. Fusing the 3000 year-old tradition of Chinese acrobatic arts with the multidisciplinary approach of Cirque du Soleil, Dralion (pronounced “Dra-lee-on”) draws its inspiration from Eastern philosophy and its never-ending quest for harmony between humans and nature.
The show’s name is derived from its two emblematic creatures: the dragon, symbolizing
the East, and the lion, symbolizing the West. In Dralion, the four elements that govern the natural order take on a human form. Thus embodied, each element is represented by its own evocative color: air is blue; water is green; fire is red; earth is ochre. In the world of Dralion, cultures blend, Man and Nature are one, and balance is achieved. The best part is when the ‘clowns’ have the humor for an adult subtlety to it but is a familiar show. There is not so much a narrative story-line to Dralion as other shows similar to this one. However, it has exotic elements, clever clowning, world class acts of amazing skill and lovely grace of 52 world-class acrobats, gymnasts, musicians, singers and comedic characters with beautifully evocative music, elegant costumes and many dancing dragons. Sometimes some people couldn’t applaud at the end of an act because most of them were too amazed- just sat there, trying to process what they had just seen, as a spectator you will have a wonderful time!

Vega is not an ordinary artist. Her recent nomination for the Latin Grammy in the category of Best Pop/Rock Album is undoubtedly recognition for a great album, but also for a great artist. “La Cuenta Atrás” (Sony Music), produced by Sebastian Krys, a renowned producer, “is an optimistic record” according to Vega, “this is the record I had to make; this nomination is definitely encouraging and reaffirming and keeps me working in the same direction”. For this record, Vega has had the collaboration of exceptional musicians such as Abe Laboriel Jr., David Levita, Chris Chaney and Robert J. Manning Jr.
A musical genre often times describes an artist’s personality, but in Vega’s case definitions don’t apply. She was born in Cordoba, Spain, as Mercedes Migel Carpio, and graduated from her career in advertising and public relations. Vega has a great passion: music who is a performer and songwriter of her own songs. She is actively involved in all aspects of her career: writing songs, and producing music and videos, where she is always involved in writing the screenplay as well as acting.
