Hill-rom Versacare Bed Used
The challenges of 2010 and the participation of youth in media forums
In the opinion section of the Sunday edition of Prensa Libre, I found the contributions of Camilo Peña and Pedro Cruz about the challenges for next year and solutions. If you followed the trail to cross their growing involvement as leader of Youth for Guatemala, see the guy has a future as political and perhaps find us in with a deputation from here a couple of years (although this is mere opinion.)
.
His column, entitled "Young people have more challenges" , has that air of irrational hope that the youth is in charge of worrying about the situation in the country and that the line of action must be one of increased participation in decision making, although his line of argument does not go much further. With the phrase "It's time to have faith that Guatemala will change and achieve our dreams and goals" can convince almost all of its readers, but as far as my reading allows me to peer into his mind, there is any concrete proposals.
Another is the story of Camilo Peña column entitled "Change begins with new ideas" , a politically incorrect approach to the series of central problems plaguing Guatemala for centuries and that ( oh, no!) has little to do with who is in power as I write these lines. On the contrary, says Peña, plays emancipate both " of that still left justified political and not scientific arguments [...] that has embroiled the country's history and critique of Western civilization at the same while demanding all the benefits that this has created materials ... "as statist right that all they have accomplished is to destroy the heroic image of the entrepreneur and the concept is destroyed and replaced by that of mercantilist benefit of government protection.
I totally agree with pain in young people, whose participation was catapulted over the previous year, must "establish itself as the beginning of a rational power, through concrete proposals and starting from a coherent ideological framework and logical as ProReforma. Hopefully this will be the year of the draft amendment to the Constitution because is the law (with a capital) and not the application of force where there was no way to progress.

Can Gonorrhea Stay Dormant For Two Years
Film to start the year
-
During these days off, I consented to revisiting movies that are on the list of my favorites and with occasional premiere. I thought of writing about it because this year I have started as a project to start a film club to see a little more that art, that although the listing of all is only the seventh, is my favorite.

Cinema Paradiso
Giuseppe's masterpiece Tornatore, a kind of autobiography at the same time, is definitely among the list of films that I take with me to a desert island. An honest story about the love of cinema (which I share with Tornatore), which shaped the
career and personal history of the main character in his childhood, his youth and old age, presented to the public as a drama fun and funny moments, but always witty, it is extremely more valuable than a ton of special effects that living in 2010 can be seen in almost all the productions that reach us from Hollywood. (Hello, Avatar).
Finally, this work has endearing characters and beautifully played, accompanied by music composed by maestro Ennio Morricone and is recognized as the film that revived the Italian film industry. A must watch.
Note: There is the original version and director's cut. I recommend the original version by far.
starring dialogue
also saw the duo of Richard Linklater's films where the protagonist is the dialogue between the two main characters, played by Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy. Before Sunrise and Before Sunset are my favorite because they give a feeling that few other artistic works succeed. That is daily life: the formation of the figures, their ideas and the setting of events, in addition to the low budget forced the producers to create a pure line of argument (though the latter is only an opinion).
Both
Both
Before Sunrise and Before Sunset are movies that throw an honest look at relationships, especially when the original film and the sequel are not discussed as such, but as two parts of a single composition.
The Shawshank Redemption
Morgan Freeman, Tim Robbins and a lesser-known James Withmore (Brooks Hatlen playing, my favorite character in the film) all offer memorable performances in this production tells of how four walls can not beat a man, a reduction but not eliminating the freedom and hope for a man who can maintain integrity even after so many years in a hostile place where the force applied at the discretion of the jailers and guards.
I love the cinematography and the narrative of this film, plus the subtle symbols and metaphors he uses, which are obvious if we pay attention mainly to biblical passages that the prison director liked both (to preach, but not practicing, as most). A film that, along with The Green Mile (with whom he has many similarities), he delivered to Hollywood in the 90's.
Avatar
James Cameron likes long movies, is shown. This in particular struck me (and not both) by the type of technology used. The motion capture or motion capture has been used before, but never in such a way that would allow the director to capture the movement of the actors and see the final result (or a draft thereof) in real time, with scenarios and pre-made ecosystems. That said, I must say that the ideological background is really upset, but really are few who question these ideas.
On the issue has already written his blog Edwin and was a guest in Libertopolis , along with Susette (do not stop reading the blog where she works) and Marta Yolanda to talk about it. Here is the link .
In short, it is a story told a thousand times a thousand different ways, about the soldier who becomes part of the group that fought against initially (something like Dances with Wolves in space), which speaks well back to get in touch with nature, but from the point of view as unpleasant and politically correct which sees it as a deity and not as an element to create more and better things. It was also a film with much potential to talk about big issues such as knowledge, bioengineering, if taken from the point of view of science fiction and the issue of private property and the invasion (by a government agency, you will not believe it!), Cameron just missed it.
Sherlock Holmes
And finally, another season premiere on the character of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, came just days after Avatar and removed from first place in the revenues, which makes me very happy, as this detective is typical when it comes to men who use logic (and how). In addition, Robert Downey Jr. does justice to the legendary researcher interpretation.
film is quite interesting, although it has "Hollywood" written all over it. Hans Zimmer's music I loved, as always, and the soundtrack will be added to the collection that I have for this composer. To not ruin the surprises that brings this production, leave the rest to your wisdom. Worth watching.
