Heath Ledger

It's been a few days since this troubled man but still great actor passed away. To me is important to note his death because, as I see it, he was a victim of his lifestyle, of being an artist...

Ghosts hunts us all, but it's only a reality -a terrible reality- for those who explore themselves to the point to seeking those ghost.

I don't know if he committed suicide and I think that's beyond the point now, the truth is he suffered from being so intense and "edgy" as too many people have described him. Here on this Blog, I've noted how his latest character, the Joker, let him to explore the personality and the vise of this character... guess life it's not to beautiful in that point of view. The shame is he didn't realized that this characters exist as the direct contrast of all the good things around.

The Dark Knight's sites have dedicated to him a space, where you can see here at the official movie site and here at the side page for conceptual publicity.

Life on mars... (???)

Two days ago, a London's newspaper published the image of what seems to be a humanoid "life form" on Mars. The pic was taken by Spirit, the surviving of the twins robots rolling on Mar's surface, a year ago. It was released in NASA's website and someone found this "formation" of rocks. And to me, that's what it seems to be, a simple formation, but I gotta admit that it certainly looks as a human.

Here are the images from where they zoomed to find it:



Even though this made front page in many newspapers and Internet websites, there's a whole history of "seeing" things in mars, beginning with the famous Cydonia 's face and pyramids. This "constructions" have been proved wrong, since new HD pics were taken and now we know that the face is nothing but a hill. As for the pyramids, I guess it might be the same, but NASA has not yet released any image of them...

This is the Region of Cydonia as seen by a 4D image processor.

Now, in between this two cases, there's another image from Spirit in which a "skull" seems to be set on the ground. Of course, we're facing the same problem. It might just be a rock shaped liked a skull... or then again, it might be not... hahaha... see the point?, we're just playing Rorschach with outer space images.

Another famous case, is the pic where they thought they'd found a living organism... which turned out to be a simple string of the nylon fabrics of the Spirit crash bags (remember they inflate bags to bounce in ground instead of landing...)

To conclude this little essay, I leave you two pics... One is an image from the Mar's orbiter, where we can cleary see a face on mars surface... further details, read this blog in upcoming days.
And the second image is just to prof that we see whatever we like, that we just arrange elements to fit with our consciousness.

Say Hi!!! Be happy!!!... (shit... hopefully, no martian did this...)

This essay have a lot of sources which I visited long ago, so I didn't really keep the track on them, but you can check any of this info by simply typing "face on mars", "Cydonia", "Life on Mars" in Google searcher... or you can visited any news website right now (probably only on this day, January 25th 2008... :P). But still I leave you the link to the most recent "martian" first publication here.

New Age Kids?

This recent finding is a "most see"...

A child with several failures in her organs got transplants, but doctor thought she might reject the donation because of organic incompatibilities... the result, her blood type changed!!! in order to match the new organ's.
Obviously, this is HUGE!!! we're talking she defies everything science know about our organic composition. To be exact, her DNA intelligently changed to adapt. Metaphysics... serve yourselves.

The main discussion with Quantum Physics is "how does a Quantum (part wave, part particle... depending on the watcher) is able to "know" how must it act", specially, since it's been proved that Quantum are able to communicate among them at what me might call "real time", with no Light Speed limitations.

This subject lead to think that also our DNA is capable of communicate with it's parts and even with other's DNA. Scientific test had been conducted and they are sure it's a reality... but this 15 year old has make it obvious.

What should we think about this? Is she the first case of a "next step" evolution or simply a host of a degeneration that happened to save her life?

For some time now, there are people talking about "Indigo Kids" which they say posses a ability to heal themselves and even others... but they theories had never been proved.

Politic Issues

Politics are the evil force of this world. No doubt. If there's kindness and love, there's gotta be a contrast in it. Politics do the job. And in this example, this point of view is more than valid:
A Saudi couple was forced to divorced after a judge decided they couldn't be together... and they can do nothing about it. This proof of human stupidity is here.

Also, Italy is breaking apart by politics differences here.
And, Cuba is forcing Castro to retirement here.

4 Cascadas artificiales en NYC

La cu¡dad de Nueva York tiene unnuevo proyecto artístico: El artista Olafur Eliasson planea construir 4 cascadas artificiales en lugares turístico de la ciudad, con la finalidad de atraer aun mas turismo. Para mi, este es un proyecto poca madre.

Pero no se agüiten compatrietas chilangos... ta tuvimos nacimientos, calaveritas, pista de hielo, ofrendas y nuestras tradicionales vacas que no le piden nada a la cascada de la imagen de arriba.......... (shit).

The first Runway in Antartica

Earth's making smallest each time a human being's born. Nations fights are still over territory and resources.
Well, Australia has completed the first runway on the Antartica, the one continent that, so far, don't belong to anybody. An Airbus landed recently after two years of pre-work on the runway. So far, the missions there are sorely scientific, but we all know that it won't be long before it is reclaimed by several nations, just like America did just a bit more than 500 years ago.

In space in news, a few months ago, NASA spotted a meteor that they thought might crashed with Mars. Obviously, the whole world was expecting this... for we would've been able to see (almost is HD) the effects of such tremendous collision.
Unfortunately (for us, not for Mars... ) this meteor will not impact Mars, though it will pass quite near... the point to me here is that they don't know if it will pass 16,000 miles away or just 2,480. In space terms... That's huge! at least it would mean the difference between seeing (from Earth) a meteor passing too close or seeing our world bye bye.

Two 2008 good new for the future

For years we've tried to live the 1940's futuristic way of life... these to "next generation" articles might be some examples:

Driverless Car

Jupiter's Europa moon set for examination

...by 2009

Well, it's been a while since the last post... 2007 is over and now the brand new 2008 is starting. Not much difference actually.
The real (although merely irrelevant) change will be in 2009, when US will finally switch his TV broadcasting from analogue to digital.
Ever since the invention of TV, transmitting airwaves it's been the main broadcasting signal, but the first great scale switch came with color TV. Even with cable and digital television around, air waves are the "basic" for all TV's.

As for February 2008, every American will need a converting device if their TV does not support digital TV, that's why their "great government" (always worried about their "fellow Americans" best interests) will give away 40 dollars coupons to help those who'll need the converter and can't afford it. Obviously, those selling the devices are quite happy with this issue.

But well, pushing away politics, this change will surely pass to history, for making the world's "must powerful" nation switch fully digital will surely echo to the rest of the world.

Día de Muertos en el Zócalo

Tuvimos el agrado de asistir al evento masivo que organizó el gobierno del DF para día de muertos en el zócalo. La neta estuvo bastante chido el asunto. Prácticamente todas las dependencias del gobierno pusieron su ofrenda y dos que tres colectivos le entraron a hacer figuras gigantes, entre las cuales estaban Frida y Diego y El Santo y Blue Demon.

Atascado, como era de esperarse, y con un sol pesadísimo... pero estuvo muy chido.

Nomás pa que noten la escala de las "figuritas"...

Una buena toma :P

Mis niñas con Frida y Diego al fondo...

Parte de las atracciones fue una reproducción del muro de craneos del Templo Mayor... pero creo que como se notará, a Mariana no le hizo mucha gracia... :P

Comic Covers 1.1

Con eso de que ahora me estoy redescubriendo la ilustración... me dí a la tarea de volver a informarme del comic... y pos encontré estas portadas que estás de poca

El número uno de las Tortugas Ninja... y eran una sátira de Dare Devil de Frank Miller, por eso todas tienen en realidad el antifaz rojo y el arte era tan libre.

El buen Chuck... yo nisiquiera sabía que tenía comic...

Una triste parodia de Star Wars... además de que estaba patrocina por la compañía de luz...

Este Pinp del buen Mike Mignola... las chicas dan pena... pero el Mojojo está de lujo

... qué mas puedo decir...?

Tiene que admitir que esta "coleccion de un numero" no tiene abuela...

Todo un clásico del aparato propagandistico gringo de la WW2

Tenían que hacerlo...

Toda la explicación está de poca...

T.M.N.T. in America and in Japan...

Talking about cultural differences, here's what happens when an icon crosses a sea. The Ninja Turtles where created as a parody of Frank Miller's comics in the 80's and as a punk-surf critic ideal. This radical movements that drove USA to the edge in the 80's was way far from the early 90's Japan, that was working hard to be the nation it is today.

There, the Ninja Turtles are sort of the mighty pets of Sailor Moon :P and followed the popular scheme that has worked for decades in Japan. Transformation, mechas, merging powers... turning it all Japanese... even the turtles physic changes and turn into a totally Asiatic look.

Here's the opening of the TMNT cartoon we know and an episode of the manga-like TMNT Japanese kids grew with.

Jesus VS Terminator...

Y pos ya que estamos en esas... Esto apareció hace un rato en Mad TV y está de poca...
