The complexes were most active against the 12Z among the studied cell lines, while the flufenamato complex, which showed an IC 50 value around 2 μM, was able to effectively trigger apoptosis through the caspase pathway. The cytotoxic effects of the complexes were studied on three selected cell lines, including epithelial hTERT HME1 used as a healthy control, endometriotic 12Z and endometrial cancer SK-UT-1. Both complexes create an interesting structural motif resembling molecular tweezers, with an open cavity between the fenamato and flufenamato ligands, and exhibit moderate radical scavenging activity, with the fenamato complex being more active. Their molecular structure was determined by the single-crystal X-ray diffraction method, which revealed that the complexes are isostructural and form analogous molecules and. Two novel Mn( II) complexes with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, fenamic (Hfen = 2-(phenylamino)benzoic acid) and flufenamic acid (Hflu = N-(3-trifluoromethylphenyl)-2-aminobenzoic acid) and neocuproine (neo) as a supporting ligand were designed, synthesized and characterized.

One day after one of these meetings, Bix runs into Rebecca, a member of the group, on the subway and she realizes who he is. He finds himself unable to come up with his next major innovation, continually drawing a blank when he tries to envision something new, and hopes to find inspiration from these conversations. In disguise, Bix joins the discussion group, run by art critic Ted Hollander at Columbia University. Feeling restless, he goes for a walk and discovers a flyer for a discussion of the work of anthropologist, and prominent Mandala critic, Miranda Kline. The novel opens with Bix Bouton, CEO of tech company Mandala, sitting in his living room as he reflects on his past with his wife, Lizzie, remembering the aimless philosophical conversations they used to have in college. They never talked so much as positioned themselves atmospherically next to burning fires and exchanged terse, tight-lipped words about heirs, England, and curses. Since they married, the Royal pair have made a dreary couple. Pervy uncle Richard (equipped with special perv window – did you see?) may have explained his behaviour away as a strategic manoeuvre to weaken Henry Tudor’s campaign, but no man looks at a lutenist that lustily without meaning it.Īnne’s death was regrettable (life pre-antibiotics was a sad business), but the character had never been an easy one to care for. While little Edward was rasping his last breath, his dad was publicly salivating over his hot niece from Skins. Though it’s perhaps unwise to admit in public that a child’s death failed to move you, the pallid heir’s slo-mo overwrought demise was more a ticked box than an affecting moment for me. Poor Anne and her sickly son were looking peakier than the Lake District and consequently, neither made it past the half-way mark. Before we reached the climactic battle, court had to contend with a couple of premature deaths and a spot of incest. 6/9/2023 0 Comments Elvis priscilla and meAlso, anyone who claims she never loved him is crazy because he mentions so many times in this book her obvious hurt and uncomfortableness when visiting Elvis's house or going through his belongings. Priscilla told him very quickly in the relationship she felt safe to tell him anything and could be herself around him and then he turns arounds and cheats on her, and then resents her because they live in her house and because she has more opportunities than him, and then falls in love with her daughter? The only thing I liked about this book is learning more about Priscilla's life after Elvis passed, and also learning about the things she did to learn to be herself and finally be free. She told him, it's too soon to move in together, yet he pushed her into it. Features & details An actor who lived with Priscilla Presley after her separation from Elvis describes their stormy relationship, their drug problems and. She just wanted a bf that did not control her every move. Priscilla never asked him to be Elvis or even act like him for Lisa's sake. And his bs about losing himself was actually misogyny because Priscilla was more successful them him. He himself put himself in Elvis's shoes and thought it was his job to replace Elvis, but then blamed Priscilla when he "Lost himself" because he was caught up in the "Presley name". either this guys an idiot, or I cannot comprehend.

He is also a deeply flawed father who has neglected his three children - Jimmy, Liam, and Mona - in favor of his own ideals. He is a domineering man with a strong sense of justice and a penchant for violence. Michael Moran is a former Irish Republican Army fighter who is now a successful farmer in rural Ireland. The novel examines themes such as guilt, love, loyalty, and forgiveness, and uses these themes to explore how a family can both survive and thrive despite the harsh realities of life. As the family struggles to reconcile their differences and move past their father’s legacy, they gain insight into how their father’s life and the choices he made shaped their own lives. The story follows Michael Moran and his three adult children, who are all struggling to come to terms with their father’s unyielding and often cruel behavior. It has since become one of the best-known Irish novels of all time. The novel won the Irish Times/Aer Lingus Irish Literature Prize in 1990 and was adapted into a British television series in 1998. It tells the story of an aging patriarch, Michael Moran, and his complicated relationships with his family and the people around him.

There was no one in the mainstream music world who wanted to help, so they did it themselves. So we can’t really say it’s his time fronting that band that makes him a personal hero to me … but it started there.īlack Flag recorded, financed, and distributed their own records, set up and promoted their own shows, and created their own merchandise. I loved it.Īt the time, I had no idea that the guy’s name was Henry Rollins, or that he wasn’t the first lead singer of Black Flag. My first impression was, “Wow, this guy is pissed off!” And sarcastic, sometimes funny, sometimes sad. If it wasn’t on the radio or MTV, it was invisible - unless some cool kid turned you on to something new (who probably got it from the older sibling of some other cool kid).Īnd by “cool,” I mean a misfit who couldn’t abide in a Top 40 world. That’s how it was pre-Internet in suburban Houston. It was in a kid named Mike Goodman’s bedroom, and the record was called Damaged. I vividly remember the first time I heard Black Flag. |
