No todos los criticos con iguales...


Digo si Ebert no le gusta tu pelicula sobre su hijo no hay tanta bronca... Pero que pasa cuando al actor principal de la adaptacion de la vida de Cristo de Mel Gibson le cae un rayo??

Actor Jim Caviezel, who plays Jesus in Mel Gibson's controversial film "The Passion of Christ" was struck by lightning during shooting.

Caviezel was uninjured, but a producer described how he saw smoke coming from the actor's ear.



Bueno una vez... puede ser pura coincidencia... pero tres?

An assistant director on the film, Jan Michelini, was also hit -- for the second time in a few months.

Yo en lo personal no creo que sea critica por parte del Todopoderoso.... digo de ser asi, le hubieran caido rayos a Gibson, y mucho antes, por hacer Hamlet.

Worms hold 'eternal life' secret



A tiny round worm can live six times longer than normal if certain genes and hormones are tweaked, according to a report in the journal Science.
The worms - Caenorhabditis elegans - had a metabolic hormone inhibited and their reproductive systems removed.

They went on to stay healthy and active for a human equivalent of 500 years, which is the longest life-span extension ever achieved by scientists.


Ok. let me get this straight... Manipulas dna, y basicamente le dices a las celulas. Don't die!! y eres inmortal.

Baby bite Baby

Nota completa:


A one-year-old boy has been bitten 30 times by a group of more than a dozen other babies at a nursery in Croatia.

Frane Simic was covered in a series of deep bite wounds all over his body, including his face.


He was attacked after the class nanny stepped out of the room to change another baby's nappy.

Dr Sime Vuckov, head of the hospital in Rijeka which treated the boy, said: "Biting between young children is not uncommon.

"But I have never seen anything like this."

Police have launched an inquiry into the biting frenzy but admit they are clueless as to the babies' reasons for attacking.

Dr Vuckov warned that while the wounds were expected to heal, the trauma suffered by Frane may leave permanent mental scars on the boy and his parents.

He said: "Our psychologist has evaluated the boy and we will continue to monitor him and provide any type of assistance so that he can overcome the trauma as soon as possible."

Frane's father said he is considering suing the nanny in charge of the class.


ouch... pero por el otro lado Gerber debe de estar tratando de conseguir una muestra de DNA del bebe en cuestion.

'Iceman' Grabs Shark to Save Men


El "Iceman" en cuestion es un capitan de barco Islandes.

An Icelandic fishing captain, known as "the Iceman" for his tough character, grabbed a 660-pound shark with his bare hands as it swam in shallow water toward his crew, a witness said Thursday.

The skipper of the trawler "Erik the Red" was on a beach in Kuummiit, east Greenland, watching his crew processing a catch when he saw the shark swimming toward the fish blood and guts -- and his men.

Levanten la mano quien crea que "Iceman" realmente es algun vikingo legendario reencarnado. Digo si solo lo hubiera agarrado... pero:

Captain Sigurdur Petursson, known to locals as "the Iceman," ran into the shallow water and grabbed the shark by its tail. He dragged it off to dry land and killed it with his knife.

Lo agarro, lo arrastro y lo mato. Con un cuchillo.

American Experience | The Pill | Gallery

Creo que el texto en la entrada lo resume bastante bien "la primera medicina para alguien que no esta enfermo": La pildora anticonceptiva.

The first prescription drug for healthy patients, the Pill neither treated nor prevented disease. Instead, taken daily, it prevented pregnancy by changing the hormonal balance in women's bodies.

The Pill far surpassed other contraceptive methods, except abstinence, in effectiveness. All a woman had to do was remember to take it every day. Pill packages quickly evolved to remind women to take their daily doses.

Browse samples of Pill package design in this gallery, featuring historical images from the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History.

Noruega... its kinda strange...

A witch has won subsidies from the Norwegian state to run a business of potions, fortune-telling and magic.


Por supuesto exiten algunas condiciones.

Lena Skarning, 33, won the unprecedented start-up grant of 53,000 crowns ($7,400) after promising not to try out harmful spells with her business, Forest Witch Magic Consulting.

y aunque le agradece a JK Rowling y a Harry Potter por sensibilizar a la sociedad acerca de la magia agrega:

Skarning said Harry Potter was unrealistic. "He rides his broom backwards. Real witches ride with the brush part in front," she said.

Employees 'more of a disaster threat than terrorists'

Que es peor que un ataque terrorista para una firma de Tecnologias de Informacion... sus propios empleados.


Half of the 877 IT directors interviewed for the research cited human related issues - accidental errors and malicious behaviour - as the main threat to the security of their business. Almost two-thirds also cited hardware failure, while 59 per cent said software failure and viruses are a significant threat.

But only a quarter said terrorism is a major concern, and natural disasters such as floods were hardly mentioned by respondents.

Two Moroccan schoolboys were injured yesterday when their woman teacher threw them out of a first-floor classroom window for being too noisy.

One, aged nine, was taken to hospital in Casablanca with a broken shoulder and head injuries. The other, aged 10, was only slightly hurt. An education official said the teacher had warned the pair she would throw them out. "They did not listen. They should have," he said.

Gunther-Dog

No se que tan cierto sea esto... pero de ser cierto el meteoro que se va a estrellar contra la tierra y terminar con la humanidad no debe de estar muy lejos... (nos lo merecemos)

Gunther es un perro. Gunther es un pastor aleman. Y Gunther


este no es Gunther, but you get the idea.

According to the Guinness Book of World Records (England, Germany, Italy 1998) and other media sources, GUNTHER, a German Shepherd, received as an inheritance the total fortune of a German Countess whose name was reported as Charlotte Liebenstein. Gunther IV is the first beneficiary of the GUNTHER REFORM TRUST settled by Charlotte, Ltd. in the Commonwealth of the Bahamas.


Ya se... Ya se, perro millonario, nada nuevo. Con el poder de corrupcion que tiene el dinero en la percepcion de la realidad no es noticia que algun rico, le deje millones a whiskers su gato... Pero Gunther es mas que un heredero.


Through intermediate companies, this trust purchased Madonna's ex-Miami waterfront mansion principally for the joy and pleasure of Gunther IV. Gunther IV was chosen to be appointed as the first beneficiary of the trust because he was the finest exemplary among a group of dogs that were prepared and trained for specific purposes
Gunther the dog currently spends a lot of time with 5 "gifted youngsters" known as the Burgundians. These five youngsters were the most talented among a selected group of boys and girls of international origin endowed with special features; beauty, intelligence and independence. These five youngsters were also considered especially suited to maintain a "joyful" life with Gunther the millionaire dog.


Gunther fue disenado para divertirse todo el tiempo. Y tiene "companeros" (lease esclavos o sirvientes) que fueron seleccionados para convivir con el.

Gunther IV, a totally atypical German Shepherd well known as the "millionaire Dog", has been a controversial media event since 1993. He is the beneficiary of a multi-million dollar trust which owns, among other assets, Madonna's ex-Miami mansion
Gunther IV was chosen and appointed as the beneficiary of the trust because he was the best and most efficient example among a new type of "Joyful Dogs" a group of German Shepherds prepared and trained for specific purposes. In collaboration with expert breeders and trainers of German Sheperds, a scientific method was formulated in order to select a group of dogs not inclined towards obedience or aggressiveness. Rather, the selection sought dogs which were spontaneously looking for joy and amusement and an increased tendency for sexual activity. Gunther IV has become a symbol of those dogs and is jokingly referred to as the "Material Dog." He certainly is not the classic police dog or guardian in that he does not exhibit the classic symbols of defense, aggressiveness, protectionism or order. Rin Tin Tin, Lassie and Rex's style are all very far from Gunther's. In fact, Gunther does not have owners. He has trustees. Thus, Gunther and the other dogs of the group's whole life and training are oriented towards the achievement of joy, pleasure, amusement and improvement of their sexual activity. Recall that Gunther and the other dogs were originally chosen because of their spontaneous inclination towards these types of behavior.
Another element which the experts believe is necessary in order to raise the quality of a dog's life is for the dog to live without a specific "owner." Rather, the animal should live together with young euphoric people. These youngsters should be as dynamic, joyful and clever as possible. The experts contend that the company of young, joyful and sexually very active people operates to increase the drive, mood, alertness and other cerebral processes of the dog which in turn generates its happiness and, ultimately, better psychological health. Additionally, the company of these youngsters "pleases" the dog and brings him to fulfillment



okie... Nunca hubo mencion alguna de "perras" (hehehehe) companeritas de Gunther IV, por lo que levanten la mano los que piensan que en el cuestionario de seleccion para los burgundians (amiguitos de Gunther) estaba la pregunta.

Responda seleccionando con un tache en la opcion que mejor se ajuste a su situacion.

1. Me gusta tener sexo con animales:

1.Poco 2. Regular 3. Mas o Menos 4. Me gusta 5. Me gusta mucho 6. Woof!

BBC NEWS | Europe | German creche for male shopaphobics

Guest Link.

From german shepards to german shoppers (man I am so witty... y deberia de estar poniendo atencion a clase en lugar de escribir tonteras)

Shopping with grumbling male partners could soon become a thing of the past for women in the northern German city of Hamburg.

A bar has set up a special kindergarten for men - offering beer, hot food, televised football and games to keep any tantrums at bay, while their wives and girlfriends go shopping.

"The women are issued a receipt for their partners when they hand them in and can pick them up again when they return it to us later," said Alexander Stein, manager of Nox Bar.

For 10 euros ($11.80) the men are offered boys' games and home-improvement coaching as well as a hot meal, two beers and football on the television.

Dzib Dzib ha muerto


Yucatán, ocurrencia de un suicida; amarra a su mujer para que lo vea ahorcarse

Un hombre se convirtió en el suicida 122 de 2003 en Yucatán al decidir ahorcarse delante de su propia esposa a la que previamente sometió en el patio de su casa donde la inmovilizó para que lo viera colgarse de un árbol.

De acuerdo con la Procuraduría General de Justicia del Estado (PGJE), el suceso ocurrió en la población de Espita donde Lorenzo Dzib Dzib decidió quitarse la vida delante de su esposa Teresa Mukul Hau, a quien dejó amarrada en el suelo antes de quitarse la vida.

La fatal decisión ocurrió luego de una discusión entre la pareja a consecuencia del consuetudinario hábito del ahora occiso de tomar alcohol.

La PGJE precisó que Dzib Dzib de 44 años, como de costumbre, tomaba grandes cantidades de alcohol, lo que molestaba a su mujer quien comenzó una fuerte discusión por esa causa.

El pleito, al subir de tono, se tornó violento a grado tal que Dzib decidió amarrar a su esposa, dejarla en el suelo y acto seguido, se trepó a un árbol donde se colocó una soga al cuello para dejarse caer ante los atónitos ojos de su esposa.

Dzib Dzib murió en el acto, y su esposa, al estar inmovilizada no pudo hacer nada para evitarlo aunque posteriormente pudo pedir ayuda ante l

The Non-Expert

Cual es la diferencia entre un experto y un no experto:

Experts answer what they know. The Non-Expert answers anything. This week John Warner explains how to get the raise you deserve using the only appropriate method for today’s terror-ific world.

Question: How do I get a raise? – Terry Garner

Answer: In today’s uncertain world, anxiety over asking for a raise is certainly understandable. A nation at war demands sacrifice from its citizens, and as President Bush has so capably demonstrated with his tax cuts, sometimes that sacrifice comes in the form of income redistribution to the wealthy. Without this extra money, the well-off could not afford things like spa vacations, where benefits can then trickle down to the service sector, like that $2 tip after you perform a kelp massage on the slack, mottled flesh of one of our overstressed captains of industry.

First, a word of warning. As a lower-level clerical type, an increase in your salary will naturally affect the company’s bottom line in a decidedly un-patriotic way, so, before you really go trying to negotiate a raise, you need to ask yourself: Do I love Saddam Hussein, or Do I support America’s war on terror.

A nine-year-old white tiger attacked Roy Horn of 'Siegfried & Roy' during a Friday night performance on the Las Vegas strip -- the trainer's 59th birthday.


The tiger lunged at Horn's neck about half-way through the show, and dragged him off stage, audience members said. "He looked like a rag doll in his mouth," said Kirk Baser, from Pennsylvania.

Note to self. Nunca dejes que nadie de Penssylvania describa tu casi muerte accidental...

Rappers in Disharmony on P2P



Dos raperos se enfrentan en cuanto a opiniones acerca de los programas que dejan compartir archivos de musica. Los raperos son LL Cool J por un lado y Chuck D de Public Enemy del otro.

LL Cool J declara:

"My first question is this: Do people in the entertainment industry have the same rights as other Americans to fair pay for fair work? If a contractor builds a building, should people be allowed to move into it for free just because he's successful? Should they be able to live in this building for free? That's how I feel when I create an album, or if I make a film, and it's shooting around the planet for free."

LL Cool J said he has seen a gradual decline of his record sales even though he made some of the greatest hits of his career recently.

"Artists are a huge and extremely important part of American culture," LL Cool J said. "We're the dreamers."

Musicians like studio drummers, for example, are seriously affected by illegal file sharing, according to Cool J. "He's not LL, he's not getting the big check and doing the movie thing and all of the talk show stuff that I do, but he's on the drums -- he's making a living. (Because of piracy), "these people can't live."

"I'm not against technology, I'm not against the Internet, I just wish that music could be downloaded legitimately," LL Cool J said.


Chuck D, siendo coherente (vease Fight the Power) declara:

"Technology giveth and it taketh away, and the industry knows this," Chuck D said. "The horseshoe makers probably got upset at the train manufacturers because (the new industry) took away their transport dominance, just as the train manufacturers probably got mad at the airline industry."

"I think this expands artistry and it's about adjustment," he said.

"As an artist representing an 80-year period of black musicianship, I never felt that my copyrights were protected anyway," Chuck D said. "I've been spending most of my career ducking lawyers, accountants and business executives who have basically been more blasphemous than file sharers and P2P. I trust the consumer more than I trust the people who have been at the helm of these companies.

"The record industry is hypocritical and the domination has to be shared. P2P to me means 'power to the people,'" Chuck D said. "And let's get this to a balance, and that's what we're talking about."

Bueno no exactamente. Un estudio holandes descubriò que:

“If the test group was exposed to third generation base station signals there was a significant impact. ... They felt tingling sensations, got headaches and felt nauseous,” a spokeswoman for the Dutch Economics Ministry said.
There was no negative impact from signals for current mobile networks.
However, cognitive functions such as memory and response times were boosted by both 3G signals and the current signals, the study found. It said people became more alert when they were exposed to both.
