Paul Festa is an American writer, filmmaker, and violinist. Born and raised in San Francisco, he currently resides there with his husband James Harker.
Festa's essays have appeared in The New York Times Book Review, The Daily Beast, Nerve, Salon.com, and various anthologies. His essays, fiction, and journalism have won numerous awards.
His widely acclaimed first film Apparition of the Eternal Church (2006, 51 minutes) captures the responses of 31 artists and writers—including literary critic Harold Bloom, filmmaker John Cameron Mitchell, Scissor Sisters singer Ana Matronic, novelist Daniel Handler (a.k.a. Lemony Snicket), and drag performers Justin Bond (of Kiki and Herb) and Jackie Beat—to the music of Olivier Messiaen. It won awards at several film festivals.
Festa stars in his second film, The Glitter Emergency (2010, 20 minutes) with members of the San Francisco Ballet and the Cockettes, opposite the Trannyshack performer Peggy L'Eggs (Matthew Simmons). Recipient of several film festival prizes and critical acclaim, the silent-film comedy is set to the second half of the Tchaikovsky Violin Concerto, which Festa plays in the film.
Paul do Mar is a civil parish in the municipality of Calheta, in the Portuguese archipelago of Madeira. The population in 2011 was 871, in an area of 1.40 km².
The origin of the toponymy paul do mar is linked to its geographic position, since paul refers to an elongated zone, which is justified by the parish's location along the southwest coast of Madeira. Its exposure to the ocean, and historical periods when the sea bathed the area with seawater, once characterised the area as the Sitio da Lagoa or Alagoa (English: site of the lake or the lake). Historically, the area experienced flooding from the sea when the Atlantic submerged and inundated fields to a depth of one metre. As a result a salt factory was established. But, this was closed long ago. Since the construction of a new higher sea wall and ocean front with road and parking the sea flooding has stopped.
Paul do Mar's Catholic Church is dedicated to the patron saint of the village Santo Amaro.
Paul do Mar is accessible by two roads: one connecting the parish with Porto Moniz, Santana, Calheta and Funchal to the east, and another which connects the village to Fajã da Ovelha and Jardim do Mar, along the Atlantic Ocean. It is located about 3 km from the urbanized area of Calheta and about 1 km from Fajã da Ovelha. Calheta has an important art centre (Portuguese: Casa das Mudas) and many of the typical facilities that you would expect in a small village. The historic municipal pedestrian way Caminho Real connects Paúl do Mar with Prazeres. During low tide and when the sea is not too rough, it is possible to walk along the rocky beach to Jardim do Mar.

Nadur (arabic) – lookout, town of Rising Sun – place with the best views in all Gozo. Festa of St Peter and St Paul is a celebration for villages who have their annual leave. Still today 70% of citrus in Malta originates from here. 29 of June is a National Holiday – long weekend usually - so plenty of time for rest. All Nadur is richly decorated with festoons, flags and statues of saints, there are marching brass bands and food stalls. In all festas one can expect being overflown with confetti, deafen by fireworks and noise-works' and stuff one's face with local food. So wear Sunday's best and follow crowds in the celebrations...

Por: Stella Cortêz Aconteceu no final da tarde de sábado (28), a segunda edição do “Sunset no Barco”, uma festa onde a cor branca foi o traje obrigatório e teve a duração de, aproximadamente, 4 horas. A embarcação teve destino para o Oeste, mas sempre junto à costa para que os convidados pudessem desfrurar de um místico pôr-do-sol sob a baía de Luanda. O evento contou com a protecção, dentro e fora do barco, da equipa da Capitania Marítima, da polícia nacional e dos bombeiros, como explicou o comandante do navio, senhor Adão. “Estão criadas todas as condições no que toca a segurança para que a festa se realize sem nenhuma preocupação. Temos um número de seisentas pessoas, o que corresponde à seisentos e cinco coletes salva-vidas. É importante que savalguardemos a segurança dos nosso...

O Projeto Festa dos Sonhos, foi idealizado pelo MC Jean Paul com o intuito de atender uma demanda de pedidos de suas fãs solicitando sua presença nos bailes. Muitas dessas meninas não teriam condições de realizar esta festa por ter um custo muito alto mas com o apoio de vários parceiros que acreditaram que podem fazer a diferença na vida das pessoas, 20 meninas ganharam uma festa completa com direito á tudo. E não é só o baile, antes da grande noite de gala, passam por várias palestras que abordam assuntos como: sexologia, dogradição, etiqueta etc. É uma festa muito emocionante. Vale á pena assistir o vídeo Vida longa ao projeto FESTA DOS SONHOS!
