Hay una muy buena tira comica americana
Gilbert es buena, muy buena tambien
Se llama Rhymes with Orange. Me gustaria hacer una seleccion de sus tiras mas "hilarious" (Es que jocoso es un adjetivo tan ridiculo....) pero no se pueden reproducir asi no mas. Pongo un ejemplo y la fuente por si les interesa ver las de gatos y perros que son BUENISIMAS! "Reigning cats and dogs"Por el momento y espero no estar cometiendo un delito muy delictuoso" estas dos. Tengo otras cinco o seis pero las busco despues. El sitio web de la autora con las tiras diarias es: www.rhymeswithorange.com
Mariposa es una palabra muy hermosa
Esta es una imagen del sitio web www.dpchallenge.com y de la serie INSECTOS. Hecha por Nutzito.En todo caso y pasada la alusion anterior para no piratear el copyright de su autor, a lo que me interesa. Mariposa es una palabra hermosa en casi todos los idiomas; recientemente supe que en japones la fonetica de la palabra sonaria en espanol asi: CHO!-CHO! con acento en ambas silabas. No parece tan linda pero es la forma coloquial. CHO! simplemente significa lo mismo: Mariposa y en ningun caso otra cosa. Que cantidad de rimas.
Quisiera, he querido, hacer una lista de esta palabra en varios idiomas pero solo conozco unos pocos:
1. En estoniano: LIBLIKAS
2. En ingles: BUTTERFLY
3. En Gallego: BOLBORETA
4. En frances y portugues: PAPILLON
5. En japones: CHO!
6. En vasco: XILIPETA
7. En Italiano, por cortesía de Galileo: Farfalla
Como seria en latin?

Joonas Joosep Salulaid Solarte Cumple 2 ANJOS hoy 22 de ABRIL DEL 2007
Y ha hecho las hazanas del caso. I.E. extermino temporalmente toda posibilidad de que yo salga de este pais por que se deshizo de mi identificacion y tarjeta de residencia diplomatica. Seguramente y como siempre las autoridades competentes de este pais no podran darle prevalencia a mi problema y estaran "inhabilitadas" para darle solucion a este asunto.
Que hago? Es que si estuviera de ilegal me iria mejor. Siempre haciendo las cosas como se tienen y deben hacer es que uno se tropieza con todos los obstaculos y las mezquindades burocraticas personificadas en amargados oficinistas de entidades publicas, no obstante el ser SERVIDORES...
Ademas, y para darle un inicio simple a esta tragica historia del viaje accidentado numero N a Colombia, al courier que tenia que traerme los tiquetes lo asaltaron y le robaron los mios, claro! Marsans me dice que tenga paciencia....en estas llevo hace 3 semanas.
A ver si puedo ir a la "boda" de Jodelipe.

Desde hace muchisimo muy de acuerdo...
Things you wish you could say at work (Or elsewhere):
1. I can see your point, but I still think you're full of shit.
2. I have plenty of talent and vision. I just don't give a fuck.
3. How about "never"? Is "never" good for you?
4. It sounds like English, but I can't understand a word you're saying.
5. I see you've set aside this special time to humiliate yourself in public.
6. Ah, I see the fuck-up fairy has visited us again.
7. You are validating my inherent mistrust of strangers.
8. I'm already visualizing the duct tape over your mouth.
9. The fact that no one understands you doesn't mean you're an artist.
10. Someday, we'll look back on this, laugh nervously and change the subject.
11. I will always cherish the initial misconceptions I had about you.
12. I don't know what your problem is, but I'll bet it's hard to pronounce.
13. Any connection between your reality and mine is purely coincidental.
14. I like you. You remind me of when I was young and stupid.
15. What am I? Flypaper for freaks!?
16. I'm not being rude. You're just insignificant.
17. Thank you. We're all refreshed and challenged by your unique point of view.
18. It's a thankless job, but I've got a lot of Karma to burn off.
19. Yes, I am an agent of Satan, but my duties are largely ceremonial.
20. No, my powers can only be used for good.
21. I'm really easy to get along with once people learn to worship me.
22. You sound reasonable...time to up my medication.
23. I'll try being nicer if you'll try being smarter. LA MEJOR Y MAS APLICABLE
24. I'm out of my mind, but feel free to leave a message.
25. I don't work here. I'm a consultant.
26. Who me? I just wander from room to room.
27. My toys! My toys! I can't do this job without my toys!

Cosas sanas y buenas
Tomatoes .. A major source of the antioxidant lycopene that reduces the risk of cancer by 40% -- notably prostate, lung and stomach cancers -- and increases cancer survival. Tomato eaters function better mentally in old age and suffer half as much heart disease. Concentrated tomato sauces have 5 times more lycopene than fresh tomatoes, and canned tomatoes have three times more than fresh.
Olive Oil .. Shown to help reduce death from heart disease and cancer. Recent research shows that heart-attack survivors on a Mediterranean diet had half the death rates of those on an ordinary low-fat diet. Olive oil is also high in antioxidant activity.
Red Grapes , including red grape juice. Red grapes have moderate antioxidant power, while purple grape juice has four times more antioxidant activity than orange or tomato juice. Red wine (not white) has about the same antioxidant capacity as purple grape juice or tea. French research shows that drinking red wine in moderation increases longevity, but excessive drinking has the opposite effect, so limit to two glasses per day. Drink grape juice.
Garlic .. German researchers have found that garlic is packed with antioxidants known to help fend off cancer, heart disease, all-over aging, and prolong cancer survival time. Let crushed garlic "rest" for about 10 minutes before cooking to preserve disease-fighting agents.
Spinach .. Second among vegetables only to garlic in antioxidant capacity and is also rich in folic acid, which helps fight cancer, heart disease and mental disorders. New University of Kentucky research shows folic acid may help prevent Alzheimer's disease. Eat both raw and steamed for best benefit.
Whole grains .. A University of Minnesota study suggests the more whole grains you eat, the lower your odds of death by 15%. Whole grains contain anticancer agents and help stabilize blood sugar and insulin, which may promote longevity. Whole-grain "dark" breads, cereals such as All Bran, and "old fashioned" oatmeal are an excellent source.
Salmon , and other fatty, "blue" fish. Contains high amounts of omega-3 fat that performs miracles throughout the body, fighting virtually every chronic disease known. Without it, your brain can't think, your heart can't beat, your arteries clog, and joints become inflamed. You need one ounce a day, or two servings of salmon, sardines, mackerel, herring or tuna per week.
Nuts .. A Harvard University study found that eating more than 5 ounces a week can cut heart-attack deaths in women by 40% and help prevent deadly irregular heart beats in men. Almonds and walnuts lower blood cholesterol. Most of the fat in nuts is the good-type monounsaturated and/or omega-3. Unsalted nuts are best.
Blueberries .. High in antioxidants, Tufts University researchers say a half-cup of blueberries a day can retard aging and can block brain changes leading to decline and even reverse failing memory.
Tea .. Green or black tea has equal antioxidant benefit. Harvard researchers found that one cup a day can cut heart disease risk in half, whilst Tufts University shows that made from loose tea or tea bags, instant or bottled tea has little effect. (Un parrafo confuso, supongo que simplemente es mejor hacer el te que comprarlo embotellado o en polvo para disolver)

SUGAR, 1/3 cup
VANILLA EXTRACT, 2 teaspoons
MASCARPONE CHEESE, 1 pound, softened to room temperature
SAVOIARDI, 1/2 pound, imported or domestic ladyfingers, or sliced sponge cake
COCOA POWDER/IN ANY CASE CHOCOLATE TO SPRINKLE OVER THE LAST LAYER.
3. Directions
Syrup
Combine water and sugar in a small saucepan.
Bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally to dissolve sugar.
Remove from heat, cool.
Add coffee and optional brandy.
Filling
Whip cream with sugar and vanilla until soft peaks form.
Fold cream into softened mascarpone.

Place a layer of the savoiardi, ladyfingers or sponge cake slices in the bottom of a shallow 2-quart baking dish or gratin dish.
Sprinkle with half the syrup.
Spread with half the filling.
Repeat with remaining savoiardi, syrup and filling, spreading the top smooth, using a metal spatula.
Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 24 hours before serving.
Immediately before serving place cocoa in a fine strainer and shake a light coating on surface.
This is a very easy variation, again a combination of different others:
1. Ingredients
MASCARPONE CHEESE, 3 cups
CONFECTIONER'S SUGAR, 1-1/2 cups
MARSALA WINE, AMARETTO OR AMARETTO ESCENCE 1/4 cup
DOUBLE CREME, 3/4 cup

BUTTER POUND CAKE, 1 store-bought (Lady fingers are better, easier, cheaper)
2. Directions
In a medium bowl, use electric mixer set on medium speed and beat the mascarpone cheese, 1 cup confectioners' sugar and marsala until well blended. Add the creme and beat until fluffy, about 1 minute. Set aside. In a small saucepan over high heat combine water, remaining 1/2 cup of confectioners' sugar and espresso powder. Bring to a boil. Stir occasionally.
Remove from heat and cool.
Slice pound cake 1/4-inch thick.
In a 2-quart oval or rectangular glass or ceramic dish, arrange slices of cake in a single layer over bottom of dish, trimming to fit. Brush half of the cooled espresso mixture over cake.
Spread half of the mascarpone mixture evenly over the top.
Then repeat and do layer number 2.
Brush espresso over cake slices and top with remaining cheese.
Cover with plastic and refrigerate until firm.
Before serving sift cocoa evenly on top.

Hola. Este es el sitio de Monasterio de Piedra. Alli hay un alojamiento en castillo del 974d.c. muy bien. A 2 horas de Madrid. Nos. podemos irnos el Viernes y volver el sabado; uds volver el mismo sabado con nos. o de vuelta el domingo si quieren ir a Zaragoza por ejemplo. Que opinan? En La rioja y Huesca debemos estar 2 dias por lo lejos (400kms o mas) y con los ninos es muy aburridor. Bien, a ver que les parece! MC.
