London  is the capital city of England and the United Kingdom, the largest metropolitan area in the United Kingdom, and the largest urban zone in the European Union by most measures. Located on the River Thames, London has been a major settlement for two millennia, its history going back to its founding by the Romans, who called it Londinium. London's ancient core, the City of London, largely retains its square-mile medieval boundaries. Since at least the 19th century, the name London has also referred to the metropolis developed around this core. The bulk of this conurbation forms the London region and the Greater London administrative area, governed by the elected Mayor of London and the London Assembly.

Arsenal scrape to victory

 Oxlade-Chamberlain and Andre Santos on target for Gunners
 
"Andre Santos: Scores Arsenal's second with a near-post finish"

Arsenal's UEFA Champions League campaign is up and running after edging out a plucky Olympiakos side 2-1 at Emirates Stadium.
The Gunners started on the front foot and they forged ahead in the eighth minute when Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain scored his first Champions League goal for the club with a neat left-footed finish.
The home side were looking dangerous in the final third and left-back Andre Santos got in on the act shortly after when he drifted past Marcano after his initial cross was cut out before slotting home at the near post.
However, Arsenal's defensive frailties were exposed on 27 minutes when the Greeks worked a short corner which resulted in David Fuster heading home Ariel Ibagaza's perfect delivery.
Olympiakos came within a whisker of levelling matters on 64 minutes when Vasilis Torosidis cut in on his left foot and sent a curling effort from outside the penalty area that rattled Wojciech Szczesny's crossbar.
The Greeks continued to press in the closing stages, but Arsenal's defence held firm and, if anything, it was the home side who looked more likely to score the game's fourth goal on the counter attack.

Last Part of the Newest Vintage Translated Article, Sharon Tate: What people remembered about her and how she thought of herself

And now here's what they who knew her had to say

Her mother: "Sharon is the most beautiful girl in the universe. Sometimes I wonder how my husband and I may have created such a wonder."

An instructor from the school of acting: "A beautiful girl in an incredible way. Sometimes, however, seemed made of marble. One day I put a stick in her hand and said, 'Beat me, do something, show emotion, you are a piece of ice!' "

Lee Strasberg (Director of the Actor's Studio): "I remember her, she was a beautiful lady."

Husband Roman Polanski: "In her arms if the world ended...I would die happy."
Enrico Lucherini today.

Her roman publicist Enrico Lucherini: "Her mood would change from hour to hour. She lived as if in a dream and would forget about everything and everyone around her. She was always over-excited and remains a woman constantly on the run, elusive."

Lucignani (director of her latest film): "An excellent professional actress. She seemed very intelligent, different from the usual diva prefabricated in Hollywood. She had nothing of the witch, witchcraft ,nor anything morbid in nature of the many films her husband made. In the evening she went to bed early and in the morning she got up early because she wanted to be on set ready for filming. I do not know any cool people who are addicted to hippies.  She was not like them. She was exquisite, a true friend in the comradery sense of the word. I kissed her affectionately on the cheek, but I felt that there was not even a shadow of ambiguity. No flirting possible. She was in love with Polanski. Jewish like him, I think. I thought she was, in short, a woman very well balanced. Her beauty was not only on the outside but also from within. "

What she said about herself

"They tried to make me into a 'dumb blonde'. They have succeeded in making an image of me like that.  But they are the real stupid ones in Hollywood. They think that an audience wants to see and go delirious for a blonde with shiny lips, large breasts, large buttocks and brain from a hen."

"I am not a strong and aggressive woman. Indeed, I have a pretty sweet character, fluid, and sometimes distracted. I do not think about things too much: I accept everything that happens because it seems a much more easy and natural way to handle life."

"I'm happy to be seen as beautiful.  But I see beauty in others and think of people that way in general."

"Men especially appreciate one thing: imagination in the creative sense of the word."

"My husband has forbidden me to wear underwear. He says that leaves marks on the skin, and that the body of a woman is so much more beautiful and natural, free, with no elastic."

She died, however, with underwear on her. Two parts: a small, intimate bikini. This displeased some people. She was almost a mother. Not for a mother to die like that. Here the bitter shadow of death hangs over her. 
The last part of the article.

Caption under Sharon photo: "The waiting is wonderful." London. Sharon Tate in a recent photo, taken just days before her tragic death. Beside her, the actress had wanted to have the clothes and the lace cap and shoes of wool that she had prepared for her eldest son to be shown in the photo, whose birth was planned for early autumn, Sharon had declared herself happy to be expecting a child: "My husband and I eagerly wanted this baby," she said on several occasions the pretty wife of the director Polanski, "now we feel that our marriage, the love that unites us and our very lives are going to have a complete sense."

Photo of the Week and short article on Sharon



Beautiful Sharon Tate publicity photograph.

Also, I found this article but I am not sure what magazine it is from.  It looks to be from a British Magazine:

Hello. This is She...

The phone rings in Sharon Tate's garden flat in Eaton Square.  She answers "Hello.  This is She..."She is 22 and has just begun on her first film role in J Lee Thompson's 13, a thriller about modern Druids.  Her arrival in films has not been unprepared.  "Oh dear," she says, "I've told this story so often that I have no continuity left.  Anyway, I was in a Los Angeles Studio testing for a commercial and Martin Ransohoff happened to see me there.  He said, 'Take that girl out, we're going to put her in films.' "

Ransohoff put her to school.  Dancing, voice training, singing, body building ("to learn how to carry yourself with an upper look at the world").  It took three years and cost a million dollars.

Have a great weekend!
