Por Javier Orrego C. Pero el mito de Drácula no es el único cuento que se refiere alegóricamente a esta historia de saqueo y expoliación de la raza humana. En 1964 el profesor de secundaria e historiador Henry Littlefield escribió un interesante artículo llamado “El Mago de Oz: Parábola del Populismo” en que hacía un paralelismo entre este clásico de la literatura norteamericana y el amplio movimiento popular que luchó por la reforma del sistema bancario a fines del siglo XIX. La obra del periodista ... read more »
It seems fitting that I stumbled upon China Girl while I was writing my post about antique dolls. I had crazing, cracking and bisque on my mind as I was wandering the aisles of Target, and I could barely believe my eyes when I saw a plastic doll made to look like she was made out of porcelain. Without knowing a thing about who she was, I handed over $19.99 and brought her home. The China Girl is actually a character from the new movie, Oz, The Great and Powerful. I havent seen the movie yet, but Ive ... read more »

Welcome to the land of Oz.Finally it's the weekends and of course, time for a movie! I was looking forward to this movie for quite some time already, since I first saw the trailer. What can I say? I was deeply attracted to the beautiful scenes and those posters and backdrops in the cinemas. It's all so magical and fantastic!I can't say that I've read all the books in the Wizard of Oz series by L. Frank Baum, neither could I say that I know all the stories but I CAN definitely say that I love this prequel... read more »

Knightley: 1 year 2 months oldApollo: 7 weeks 3 days oldSo, in two weeks times we are embarking on Downunder Assistance Dog: Mark 2. The temperament testing last week went really well. We travelled up to Taree without a hitch and met the lovely breeders and their adult dogs. Then finally, we met the litter. They were so lovely, lively and happy. It was great to see what a lovely area they had been brought up in. I was pretty nervous and worried, because we'd come a fairly long way to find a new assistanc... read more »
Knightley: 1 year 2 months 3 weeks oldPossible puppy: 6 weeks 1 day oldI know, I'm a very bad girl. It has been so very long since my last post. Hah, that sounds quasi-religious.The reason, once again, is Oz Working Dogs. When I started it I was rather tentative about its prospects of suceeding, but now it is very obvious that it is taking off in a big way. Especially this last week I have been working very hard - probably too hard - and I'm exhausted. I am stocking all sorts of things now, toys, first a... read more »

I LOOOOOOOVE Dr OZ! He is the the funniest, most lovable doc I have ever come across! So it's no surprise that I watch his shows and make note of everything he suggests! I have also started following him on Twitter (so not stalkerish), and yesterday he tweeted about the 100 foods he wants you to have in your shopping cart. GO have a look--->http://www.doctoroz.com/videos/100-foods-dr-oz-wants-your-shopping-cart#cmpid_TW_LinkYou should also have a look at his website--->http://www.doctoroz.com/ read more »
Knightley: 1 year 1 month 2 weeks 5 days oldNew prospective pup: 10 days oldWow, more than two weeks without a new post! What a very bad girl I am. I have been very busy, is my only defense. I've been doing a LOT of work on my Oz Working Dogs website, adding more and more products to it. It's coming along well, and I'm just about to have a sale in a bit. I've been selling fairly well, wouldn't mind business picking up a bit more .... but it'll get there I'm sure. I learnt from this blog it takes a while ... read more »
