Una pausa

Sigo trabajando en mi declaración de impuestos. Es una tarea anual que no le gusta a nadie, exigiendo que recogemos registros de ingresos y pagos que pueden aumentar o disminuir la deuda al gobierno. Ahorita tengo un problema con el ordenador que se está verificando la integridad del disco. Ojalá será exitoso para que pueda reanudar trabajar en la declaración. Mientras tanto, escucho el sonido de la radio en otra sala. Puedo reconocer la música pero no puedo entender a los habladores.

• They can surprisingly regenerate their members as legs and antennas.
• They can almost eat everything, namely: wool, paper, ink,.. even their own skeletons.

Fixer-Upper

Aquí está otra palabra sobre la que puedo dejar mis pensamientos deambular. Un "fixer-upper" es simplemente una casa que necesita mucha reparación, especialmente una que está en venta. Hay mucha gente que ganarse la vida comprando tales casas, reparándolas y vendiéndolas de nuevo. La palabra compuesta proviene del verbo frasal "to fix up" (reparar/renovar). Un "fixer-upper" podría ser también la persona que repara la casa, aunque este uso no es común. Una canción en la película "Frozen" dio un nuevo sentido a la palabra, usándola para referirse a un hombre que, aunque no perfecto, tenía mucha potencial. Supongo que todos somos "fixer-uppers" en este sentido.

Meanderings

Esta mañana estuve caminando en el pasillo detrás de otra persona, y me di cuenta de que él caminaba como si no supiera adónde quiso ir. Desambulaba entre la derecha y la izquierda, mirando para aquí y para allí. Cuando giró eventualmente hacia mi destinación, le pregunté "¿Estás 'meandering' hacia la sala 233?" Respondió con una risa "Sí, tengo tiempo ahorita para 'meander'." "To meander" es un verbo muy expresivo, veniendo del nombre de un río en Turquía que sigue un corso serpentino. Se usa el verbo con ríos, personas y pensamientos también. Se podría decir que estos son mis "meanderings" sobre una palabra interesante.

Spectacle vs Natural Disaster

A dark day, a deep sound from the river. The water is watering the streets, the parks, the allotments, .... all is eated by the river.
When you see the river, it looks like very quiet, serene, leading the water by its natural couse. You can't notice the sound, its a natural and mininal sound. The river doesn't want to say you anything.
But now, due to the last rains and snowfalls, the level of the river is on the rise. Nobody can fight against the river's strength. He wants to follow its course, but it is impossible.
But despite recent natural disasters like rains and snowfalls, we should focus on investigating who is the main culprit of all this. If there is some guilty.

The river's voice is deep and it breaks the nature soud.
Now all people have to repair their houses. Politicians are promising helps to help them. But not all money is enough to repair all these damages. Everybody should help to prevent future natural disasters. The river should be cleanend in all its course. Only of this way we will be able to prevent the future disasters. At the end, Nature is stronger than human beings.
While for some it is a big disaster for others this is only a spectacle. Everybody want to take a picture of the disaster, just to remember. That's life!

It Is Because of You

It is because of you that I see rivers where there is only asphalt,
It is because of you that I see oceans where there were only puddles,

It is because of you that I am a accomplice elf to the wind
who flees at dawn to introduce through your window.
It is because of you that there are no chains if I go on the rhythm of your hips,
It is because of you that I drive madness when I sail for your waist
.....
your lips are made of silk, your teeth are full moon colour,
your laughing is the blood that runs through my veins,
your kisses is the ink of my verses which they always told you.

lyrics

Bloviate

Esta palabra me hace reír. Quiere decir hablar demasiado, especialmente como un fanfarrón. Si escucharas a atletas antes de un campeonato, o a políticos que describían sus récords, sin duda escucharías bastante "bloviating". Lo que me encanta es el sonido de la palabra. Al parecer viene de "to blow", como el viento, una imagen adecuada de los bloviadores. Me recuerda también de "bovine" (como una vaca), otra imagen apta, especialmente cuando pensamos en lo que dejamos las vacas en la pastura. Escuché la palabra ayer en la radio, usada por una "personalidad de televisión" en describir sus críticos. Como decimos en inglés, esto fue como la olla llamando la caldera "negra" ("like the pot calling the kettle black").

Religion and Knowledge

Galileo was charged with heresy because of defending heliocentric model proposed by Copernicus, which The Earth and the planets go around the sun. In 1992 the Pope John Paul II closed the Galileo case recognizing the mistakes from those who condemned him.
But in 2015 after 451 years from having been born, there is still who refuse this theory.
"The Earth is quiet, doesn't move" Sheij Bandar Al Jaibari says according to religious documents which he has, he is a muslim cleric. According to his theory a plane can't never arrive to its destiny if The Earth moves in the same direction.
These statements have provoked a chain reaction in social networks with hard criticism and making fun, according to Al Arabiya News Channel.

Making a source of knowledge of the religion is an authentic madness and an aberration.

Oymyakon, the Coldest Village in the World

It got to reach -71,2 degrees Celsius. it is in Siberia, Russia.
These are some of the most important features:

• When it's -30ºC your skin starts to burn,
• From -40ºC, petrol is frozen,
• From -50ºC, your eyes hardly opens, in that temperature, if you spit, the spit will arrive to ground frozen. 
• From -52ºC is forbidden  going to school, here, because you can be  frozen in 15 minutes at this temperature, no matter the amount or type of clothes that you wear.
• It doesn't exist water here, but blocks of ice.
• Population are about 2000 people, mainly they live thanks to cows, so they make milk. Some of them hunt hares or raise reindeers too. But in winter, cows don't make milk and  their udders are covered by special plastic so that they don't freeze.
• From -60ºC, your breath freezes while going out, you can even hear as the ice cracks.

But the coldest place registered on the earth is in Antartica with -93,2ºC.

Gloria

Gloria, the environment misses you,
your presence is required,
warm innocence,
my mouth misses you
which calls you unintentionally.
I will write my story with the Gloria word,
because the morning is lit next to you,
the truth and the lie is called Gloria.

Gloria, the environment misses you,
the sky misses you,
burn me in your fire, melt me in snow
which freezes my chest.

I am waiting you, Gloria.
You are a smiles camp,
water in desert, opened heart,
adventure of my mind, of my table and my bed,
of the garden of my present,Gloria, I am waiting you, Gloria.

Gloria, the day is waiting for you
and while everyone sleeps,
she invents scent between the trees
in a magic land for whom it breaths fog,
for whom breaths anger, you melt yourself in her kisses,
you strip provoking and I make shadows on the ceiling,
while thinking for Gloria.
