<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>¡Pobre, Mariano! Es que con los medios de comunicación al acecho, uno no se puede fiar. Que el desfile de las Fuerzas Armadas es un coñazo, es algo que sabemos todos; pero, hombre, que lo digas tú abiertamente, pues no queda bien del todo, sobre todo si la Cadena Ser está al acecho (El País: <a href="http://www.elpais.com/audios/cadena/ser/Rajoy/in/fraganti/Manana/tengo/conazo/desfile/elpaud/20081011csrcsr_8/Aes/">http://www.elpais.com/audios/cadena/ser/Rajoy/in/fraganti/Manana/tengo/conazo/desfile/elpaud/20081011csrcsr_8/Aes/</a>; El Mundo: <a href="http://www.elmundo.es/elmundo/2008/10/11/espana/1223724070.html">http://www.elmundo.es/elmundo/2008/10/11/espana/1223724070.html</a>).</p>
<p>Además, seguramente ahora saldrán los fariseos para aprovechar la coyuntura y atacarle despiadadamente, cuando estoy convencido de que piensan exactamente lo mismo. Ya me imagino a Sofía regañando al rey: "Juanqui, ponte el traje que tú eres el protagonista de este desfile". Y su pobre majestad gruñendo: "Que no, Sofi, que todos los años lo mismo, que Rajoy tiene razón, que esto es un coñazo, y tengo que estar de pie mucho tiempo, que yo este año me quedo en casa viendo <em>Daredevil</em>".</p>
<p>En fin, es lo que tiene ocupar según qué cargo, que te toca mantener la compostura, ya seas el Papa de Roma, el presidente de los Estados Unidos, los muñecos Disney del parque de atracciones de París o el presidente del Partido Popular... Algún privilegio nos debía corresponder a las clases medias y bajas.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align:center;"><a rel="attachment wp-att-86" href="http://enricpineda.wordpress.com/2008/10/01/republica-i-per-que-no/re_fedesp/"><img class="size-full wp-image-86 aligncenter" title="República Federal Española" src="http://enricpineda.wordpress.com/files/2008/10/re_fedesp.jpg" alt="República Federal Española" width="142" height="52" /></a></p>
<p>Comencem a deixar les coses clares: la monarquia, ara per ara, no serveix per gaire cosa. De fet, si us pareu a pensar una mica, el rei espanyol no pot fer gaire cosa perquè, senzillament, no li deixen. Aquesta constitució que va haver de jurar respectar li ha limitat tant els poders que els seus avantpassats borbons francesos li girarien la cara si se'l trobessin al carrer. Per favor! Un descendent de reis dèspotes, reduït a la mínima expressió per una colla d'esquerrosos deslleials!</p>
<p>Els defensors de la monarquia (que cada vegada són menys) s'entesten en destacar les bondats del monarca: va jugar un paper decisiu en la transició i en l'intent de cop d'estat del 81, i va representar la unitat de la pàtria (ui, quina fredor que fa venir això) en els temps revoltats de finals dels setanta del segle passat. No seré jo qui retopi aquestes aformacions, més que res perquè quan tot això passava jo tenia 3 anys. Però no em poden negar que tot això ja és història.</p>
<p>Tampoc estaria del bàndol dels que pregonen que al rei se l'ha de fotre fora, a puintades de peu si pot ser. No cal ser així amb un funcionari (vitalici) de l'estat. Crec que s'hauria de fer com en les grans empreses: un sopar de comiat. Es convidaria a quatre o cincs caps d'estat, es muntaria un soparet amb powerpoints fets pels seus fills i néts explicant les batalletes de la història de l'avi a l'empresa, i després se li faria entrega d'una placa amb la llegenda "A Juancar, agradecidos". I "punto pelota". Una vegada fet això, el ciutadà Juan Carlos de Borbón es podria dedicar a tot allò que fan els avis d'avui en dia: anar a Benidorm amb l'Imserso, aprendre informàtica per saber fer anar el Photoshop i poder-se fer les seves pròpies postals de Nadal, i anar a veure obres (tot i que amb això de la crisi del totxo, la cosa està txunga).</p>
<p>I així, quan jo tingués néts, els podria explicar que vaig viure el naixement de la República Federal Espanyola, la República Catalana, la República d'Euskalherria i la resta d'estats que es creguin convenients, dins de l'àmbit de la Unió Europea. O la creació d'una República Federal Espanyola respectuosa amb totes les nacions i nacionalitats, lliure del pes que suposa la intolerància, els privilegis i el nacionalisme espanyol extrem que, ara per ara i espero que sense voler, representa en Juancar.</p>
<p>Què, ens animem a provar-ho per tercera vegada?</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align:justify;"><a href="http://soyandaluz.files.wordpress.com/2008/09/ladrones_guante_blanco1.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-342" title="ladrones_guante_blanco1" src="http://soyandaluz.wordpress.com/files/2008/09/ladrones_guante_blanco1.jpg" alt="" width="259" height="165" /></a>España se está yendo a pique cual barco de Iscomar. Todos nosotros hemos recortado gastos hasta en lo más mínimos detalles. Sin ir más lejos, el domingo mi señora esposa y yo, en vez de ir al cine, alquilamos dos pelis, y con palomitas de supermercado pasamos la tarde. La crisis es tan grande que hasta Juan Carlos y su trupe han pedido aumento de sueldo. y claro... no se les puede negar, hay que pensar que el combustible que utiliza en sus viajes oficiales sube, la ropa que luce tan elegantemente hecha a medida también sube. La verdad es que este Juan Carlos es un tipo muy valiente, por lo menos más que yo. A mi jamás en la vida se me ocurriría pedirle en esta situación un aumento del 2.7% a mi jefe. Una pregunta que me hago yo mismo.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">¿Qué gastos tiene este hombre y su familia para recibir 9 millones de euros, 1.500.000 millones de pesetas? Eso sí a repartir con Felipe, Letizia, y todos los acoplaos. Me hago yo esta pregunta, siempre desde la ignorancia... porque siempre escucho que tanto el hijo como el padre están en viaje oficial, es decir, pagado por mi y por ti. Supongo que tendrá que hechar mucha gasolina a la gran cantidad de coches que tiene, que consten que son regalados.... (ataque de tos)</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Otra pregunta que me hago ¿Qué haría yo o cualquier persona con ese dinero si fuese ministro de economía? Yo lo tengo muy claro, comprarme un buen coche. Mierda, si los ministros llevan coche oficial. Joder, ahora me he visto en un dilema.  Ser ministro de economía con 9 millones de euros para tirarlos a la <span style="text-decoration:line-through;">basura</span>, casa de Juan Carlos o seguir siendo un asalariado con problemas a final de mes pero pudiendo conducir todo lo que quiera...</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><!--more--></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Venga otra pregunta: ¿Es verdad que en el Estado Español hay más coches oficiales que en EE.UU.? Es una cosa que me gustaría investigar, ya que la fuente que me ha dado esta información no es muy de fiar. Pero entendería que el ministro de Economía le diese los 9 millones de euros al ministro de industria y transporte y no a Juan Carlos y su trupe.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Más preguntas: ¿Zp también le habrá dado esos 400 euros que todos hemos tenido que aceptar forzosamente para luego pagárselos con intereses?</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Con todo ese dinero, ¿Juan Carlos paga la grandísima cantidad de escoltas que tiene?, básicamente lo digo porque cuando viene a Mallorca el muy hijo de su madre moviliza a media isla cada vez que tiene que ir al baño. Pobrecito...</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Así podría seguir hasta artarme o hasta que deje a un lado la autocensura y escribir claramente lo que pienso de esta panda de personajes abonados a un gran hermano vitalicio a costa de lo plebeyos.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">En fin, Juan Carlos, que lo disfrutes con salud y si tienes que hacerte unos retoquillos estéticos, pregúntale a tu nuera que es toda una experta. ......... Ostras.......... ¿las tetas de la princesa las hemos pagado también nosotros? Acabo ya que la autocensura mía me está pidiendo irse de juerga.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify;">No soy nadie, sólo un simple camionero andaluz emigrante y muy enamorado de su novia hasta lo indecible, pero si algún día estos LADRONES, VAGOS, MALEANTES se fuesen quizás me pensaría un poco más esto de se Español........ jajajajaja ni por esas creo yo.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align:justify;">La transizione dalla dittatura alla democrazia in Spagna è avvenuta in modo “dolce”: almeno per quelli non direttamente colpiti dalla guerra civile e dalla dittatura franchista.  Il re Juan Carlos, che pareva durante il franchismo una figura sbiadita, quando ebbe in mano il potere, guidò il paese verso la democrazia. C’è in verità chi mette in dubbio i meriti storici di Juan Carlos in relazione al tentativo di colpo di stato del 1981. Un amico di Siviglia, Fran, mi ha raccontato: “Io negli ultimi anni del franchismo frequentavo l’università. Si era formata una vasta rete di oppositori: nelle università, fra i lavoratori, dove erano vive organizzazioni sindacali e politiche di sinistra, naturalmente illegali… Io da studente ero antifranchista. Era rischioso, se ti prendevano la passavi brutta: soprattutto negli ultimi tempi Franco aveva indurito le pene per gli oppositori. Il franchismo non cessò per opera del re Juan Carlos, ma perché c’era già una lotta diffusa contro il regime, di cui il re dovette tener conto, anche se per puro opportunismo…”.<br />
Mi pare che molti spagnoli però difendano il re e la sua famiglia, che oggi hanno uno stile di vita e di rapporti simili a quelli di monarchie del Nord Europa.<br />
Sia come sia, nel 1977 il Parlamento approvò un’<a href="http://noticias.juridicas.com/base_datos/Penal/l46-1977.html" target="_blank">amnistia</a> molto ampia per tutti i reati e i delitti legati alla vita politica, commessi prima del 15 dicembre 1977; e poi, nel 1978, ci fu il varo della <em>Carta costituzionale</em>.<br />
È difficile che in Spagna qualcuno oggi manifesti un’aperta simpatia per il franchismo. Inoltre non c’è qui un partito più a destra del <em>Partido Popular</em>, come invece c’era in Italia - il MSI - al tempo della Democrazia cristiana (e non parliamo di oggi!). In manifestazioni dell’opposizione che si sono tenute l’anno scorso, però, si sono viste sventolare bandiere spagnole dell’epoca franchista.<br />
A distanza di quasi trent’anni dall’amnistia, nel 2006, il governo socialista ha concordato una <em>Legge per il recupero della memoria storica</em>, che è stata approvata nel 2007 dal Parlamento. Si tratta di disposizioni assai caute: dalla guerra civile sono passati 70 anni, dalla fine del franchismo più di 30, i protagonisti di quei fatti sono vecchi o morti. Si pensava, con questa legge, soltanto di riscattare dall’oblio e talvolta dall’accusa ingiusta e infamante persone ammazzate in seguito a condanne da parte di tribunali franchisti; di dare una compensazione alle famiglie delle vittime; di aiutare a ritrovare le fosse comuni in cui giacevano i resti degli uccisi; di rimuovere i simboli della dittatura dagli edifici pubblici, e di poche altre cose. I persecutori e i loro discendenti sarebbero stati lasciati in pace.<br />
Negli anni precedenti si era perso il ricordo dei morti ammazzati che avevano difeso repubblica e democrazia. Dal 2000 qualcuno dei familiari aveva cercato di recuperarne i resti, rivolgendosi addirittura a investigatori privati, che raccogliessero informazioni sulla fine di queste persone. Un recente articolo de E<em>l País</em> si racconta una di queste vicende:</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><em>‘Qui c’è qualcosa’, disse l’archeologo Julio Vidal, il 28 di ottobre dell’anno 2000, alle 11 della mattina, quasi nello stesso momento in cui il braccio della scavatrice tirava fuori uno scarpone sul quale aveva piovuto per 70 anni. A Emilio Silva tremarono le gambe. Suo nonno Emilio stava lì, nel passaggio della corsa (chiamato così perché i bambini, che avevano sentito che lì c’erano morti, lo attraversavano correndo), proprio come gli avevano indicato.</em></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Intanto si sono formate Associazioni per il recupero della <a href="http://www.memoriahistorica.org/" target="_blank">Memoria Storica</a> che, di fronte ai ritardi, hanno chiesto alla magistratura di pronunciarsi sul loro diritto a tali ricerche. Dopo aver incontrato vari ostacoli, hanno ottenuto che il giudice Baltasar Garzón aprisse un’inchiesta giudiziaria, invitando il Governo, la Chiesa cattolica, diversi comuni e varie altre istituzioni a fornire dati in proposito. Rodrigues Zapatero ha dichiarato l’appoggio fattivo del governo a queste richieste e ha promesso un aiuto più incisivo.<br />
L’opposizione al coinvolgimento dello Stato nel recupero di questo passato è stata ed è accesa in questa e nella passata legislatura, e non soltanto da parte dei settori più chiusi del <em>Partido Popular</em>, ma anche da parte di Mariano Rajoy, il leader, che pure dopo l’ultima sconfitta elettorale ha voltato le spalle alla destra interna, oltranzista e rozza. Rajoy dice che Zapatero divide la Spagna e utilizza la faccenda della memoria storica, e anche l’impegno per l’aborto libero e per la morte dignitosa come diversivi. Che il presidente del governo si nasconde dietro queste cose per distogliere le menti degli elettori dalla crisi economica che non sa fronteggiare. Zapatero risponde accusando di ipocrisia e di insensibilità chi porta tali <a href="http://www.elpais.com/videos/espana/Zapatero/denuncia/hipocresia/quienes/dicen/memoria/historica/divide/pais/elpvid/20080906elpepunac_3/Ves/" target="_blank">argomentazioni</a>.<br />
Certe volte mi chiedo se quel che ripete e ripete e ripete Rajoy non faccia breccia nella mente di molte persone, vista la “nebbia” di cui parlavo nel precedente articolo e la crisi economica, che nei paesi non poveri porta sovente barbarie. I vescovi, per parte loro, cercano di sottrarsi sdegnosi, con vari espedienti da azzeccagarbugli, all’obbligo aprire alla polizia giudiziaria gli archivi delle 22.827 parrocchie in cui potrebbero essere contenuti dati degli ammazzati dal franchismo.<br />
Tra le fosse che si vogliono aprire, c’è quella in cui probabilmente fu buttato il corpo di Federico García Lorca, accanto a quello di Dióscoro Galindo, un maestro amico del poeta, pure lui fucilato. La famiglia Lorca non era d’accordo con l’esumazione. La nipote, Laura García Lorca, aveva dichiarato che la memoria storica è "una faccenda molto diversa da una tomba e dai resti di una persona.” Certo, potremmo essere in molti a pensare che la persona amata che fu uccisa non è davvero quel pugno di ossa. Però per tanti ritrovare quei resti significa poter riparlare di lei, riportare alla luce la sua umile storia. E proprio per questo, per solidarietà con quella di  Dióscoro Galindo, i parenti del grande Federico ci hanno ripensato. Hanno però chiesto “garanzie” (chissà chi potrebbe darle!) perché la triste ricognizione della fossa non sia occasione di spettacolo. E vogliono che i resti del poeta siano lasciati dove stanno.<br />
Quello che sta avvenendo in Spagna è una prova in più del fatto che la memoria agganciata alle grandi tragedie è dolentemente persistente: quando si tenta di cancellarla risalta fuori come un fantasma. Non è mai pacificazione, ma necessario tormento.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>From <a href="http://voices.washingtonpost.com/the-trail/2008/09/18/mccain_slights_spanish_prime_m.html">The Trail at The Washington Post</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p>Republican presidential nominee John McCain suggested this week that he would continue President Bush's policy of having cool relations with the government of Spain, despite having made starkly contrasting statements to the Spanish press earlier this year saying he looked forward to normalized relations with the NATO ally.</p>
<p>In comments that have caused a kerfuffle in Spain, McCain seemed to lump Spanish Prime Minister Jose Luis Zapatero in the same category as the anti-American leaders of Venezuela, Bolivia and Cuba. McCain's remarks came during in an English-language interview with Radio Caracol WSUA 1260AM in Miami, part of the Spanish-language radio group Union Radio, conducted Tuesday.</p></blockquote>
<p><img src="http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i91/nonnie9999/movies/radiodays2.jpg" alt="" /><br />
<a href="http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41E6BFRBHML._SS500_.jpg">Original DVD cover</a>.<br />
<!--more--></p>
<blockquote><p>Zapatero is a center-left politician, but McCain has suggested that as president he would seek to repair relations that have been badly frayed in Europe during Bush's tenure. In an early-April interview with a reporter from Spanish newspaper El Pais, McCain said, "This is the moment to leave behind discrepancies with Spain."</p>
<p>...snip...</p>
<p>The reporter for the Miami radio station seemed surprised that McCain, after discussing anti-American antagonists in Latin South America, acted so coolly to the idea of meeting with Zapatero.</p>
<p>"I would be willing to meet with those leaders who are friends and want to work with us in a cooperative fashion," McCain said, throwing in words of praise for the Mexican government.</p></blockquote>
<p>The reporter asked four--count 'em, uno, dos, tres, quatro!--times, kids, giving him an opportunity to remove his foot from his boca, but still Captain Underpants repeated...</p>
<blockquote><p>
"I'm willing to meet with any leader who is dedicated to the same principles and philosophy that we are for human rights, democracy and freedom and I will stand up to those who are not."</p>
<p>That McCain would lump Zapatero in with such Latin American bad guys as Venezuela's Hugo Chavez comes as a surprise, because Zapatero and Juan Carlos, the King of Spain, were the protagonists in one of the most public anti-Chavez moments in the Spanish-speaking world.</p>
<p>...snip...</p>
<p>So, was McCain purposely trying to diss the Spanish leader? Questions about whether McCain forgot which country Zapatero leads, got confused about Spain's geographic relationship to Latin America, or confused Zapatero with the Zapatista rebels from Mexico have exploded on blogs since reports of the interview first surfaced.</p>
<p>McCain foreign policy adviser Randy Sheunemann [<em>sic</em>] said McCain's answer was intentional.</p></blockquote>
<p>(Seems the Straight Talk Express bus is being followed around by a What He Meant to Say minivan these days!)</p>
<blockquote><p>Neither Obama nor Biden took up the issue of McCain's remarks about Zapatero Thursday. But Tony Blinken, a longtime foreign policy aide to Sen. Joe Biden who is now on his campaign staff, said in a phone call on Thursday evening that it was unfortunate that McCain would "preemptively poison the well" with a NATO ally.</p>
<p>Worse still, Blinken said, would be if the McCain campaign were adopting a new, hardline policy toward Spain just to cover up a gaffe.</p></blockquote>
<p>Sooooooo, let's see.  What else could Captain Underpants possible do to piss off our amigos?  Well, there's this...<br />
From <a href="http://thinkprogress.org/wonkroom/2008/09/16/mccain-sipc-wrong/">Think Progress</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p>During a speech today in Tampa, FL, McCain repeatedly referred to the Securities Investor Protection Corporation, the corporation that “return[s] customers’ cash, stock and other securities” if a brokerage goes bankrupt, and is known as the SIPC — as <strong>S-P-I-C</strong>.  (<em>emphasis mine</em>)</p>
<p>It’s possible that McCain misspoke (twice!) in rattling off what he called “the alphabet soup” of regulators, but the error appeared both times in the prepared text released by the campaign. Which raises the question: does he know what he’s talking about or is he just reading what is put in front of him?</p></blockquote>
<p>From the speech:</p>
<blockquote><p>Too many firms on Wall Street have been able to count on casual oversight by regulatory agencies in Washington. And there are so many of those regulators that the responsibility for oversight is scattered, unfocused and ineffective. Among others, we’ve got the SEC, the CFTC, the FDIC, the SPIC and the OCC.</p></blockquote>
<p>Oh, and there's this to ponder, too, niños:</p>
<blockquote><p>[...] SIPC is not a regulator. [...]  SIPC’s own web site [...] states “Though created by the Securities Investor Protection Act (15 U.S.C. §78aaa et seq., as amended), SIPC is neither a government agency nor a regulatory authority. It is a nonprofit, membership corporation, funded by its member securities broker-dealers.” </p></blockquote>
<p>Asked for a comment, Republican Vice Presidential candidate, Sarah Palin, remarked, "I can see a Taco Bell from my office window, so I am totally ready to take on relations with all the Spanish-speaking countries!" </p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have always been a liberal Democrat.  Over the past few years I've grown more curious to learn about the various trains of thought that make up today's progressive movement.  And as an illustrator, I am always looking for places that will publish my work.  A coworker, who is more knowledgeable about these matters and seems a more committed leftist, recommended that I try reading and submitting my cartoons to Z Magazine, a progressive magazine that is based in Boston.  Ever since the first issue arrived at my mailbox, I've been a fan of this magazine.   It covers the efforts of activists around the world to press for a more radical progressive vision to resolve the problems of the environment, the problems of poverty and the exploitation of marginalized groups, of the need to reign in corporations and the need for a more just economic system. </p>
<p>Z Magazine was founded in 1987 by two of the founding members of South End Press (<a href="http://www.zmag.org/zmag/zmagabout.htm">http://www.zmag.org/zmag/zmagabout.htm</a>).  It was inspired by the movie Z, by Costa-Gavras, that tells the story of repression and resistance in Greece.  At the end of the movie, instead of listing the cast and crew, Costa-Gavras list the things banned by the Greek junta in the movie.  They include: peace movements, labor unions, long hair on men, Sophocles, Tolstoy, Aeschylus, strikes, Socrates, Ionesco, Sartre, the Beatles, Chekhov, Mark Twain, the bar association, sociology, Becket, the International Encyclopedia, the free press, modern and popular music, the new math, and the letter Z, which in the movie symbolized “the spirit of resistance lives.”   In the spirit of the movie, Z Magazine is dedicated.  In each issue, Z Magazine begins with this statement: </p>
<p><em>"Z is an independent monthly magazine of critical thinking on political, cultural, social, and economic lie in the U.S. It sees the racial, gender, class, and political dimensions of personal life as fundamental to understanding and improving contemporary circumstances; and it aims to assist activist efforts for a better future."</em></p>
<address>Z Magazine highlights writers as diverse as Lydia Sargent (co-founder of Z Magazine), Noam Chomsky, Harvey Wasserman, Margaret Kimberly, and various activists and freelance writers.   I am a big fan of the various cartoonists who regularly populate the Z pages.  Ted Rall (<a href="http://www.rall.com/">http://www.rall.com/</a> ), Keith Tucker (<a href="http://www.whatnowtoons.com/">http://www.whatnowtoons.com/</a>) , Carol Simpson , Tom Tomorrow (<a href="http://www.thismodernworld.com/">http://www.thismodernworld.com/</a>) and various other cartoonists create scathing political satire that is difficult to find in more mainstream magazines.  Two cartoonists are especially influential to me. Matt Wuerker works in a traditional crosshatch style that harkens back to the great political cartoonist of the late 19th and early 20th century like John Tenniel, Thomas Nast, and Frederick Opper.  Andy Singer (<a href="http://www.andysinger.com/)">http://www.andysinger.com/)</a>  works in a similar crosshatch style, and I think his funny and succinct cartoons are some of the best observations of consumer culture today.</address>
<p> During the past year, I have several favorite articles.  One article, in the April 2008 issue by Zoltan Grossman, chronicles the history of social movements during the 1980s.  As a teen and young adult during that time, I enjoyed reading about the anti-apartheid movement, the Central American solidarity, the nuclear freeze and the anti-nuclear protests, Act Up, and the defense of abortion clinics.  Zoltan does a good job of putting these movements in the context of the Reagan year, and in pointing out the successes and failures of these movements.  He points out that the movements of the 1980s had trouble integrating class and anti-imperial politics with racial and ethnic politics and identity politics, except for a brief period when Jesse Jackson created his Rainbow Coalition in his 1988 Presidential run. </p>
<p>In the September 2008 issue by Lydia Sargent points out the contradictions in criticizing China for muzzling dissent in the Olympics while the U.S. media plays down anti-Iraq war demonstrations that draw hundreds of thousands.   Sargent reminds the reader that the Olympics has always been a reflection of the dominant idealogies and values of the societies, whether it be the Nazi attempts to display their Aryan superiority, a venue for Cold War rivalry, and a venue for the corruption, commercialism and politics of the host cities.  She then looks at the background behind the 1968 Olympic games in Mexico City: the massacre of hundreds of students in Ttateloco Square who were protesting for greater political freedoms in Mexico;  and the reasons behind the potests of Tommie Smith and Juan Carlos.  They were a part of the Olympic Project for Human Rights, founded by sociologist Harry Edwards, which had 3 demands:  restoration of Muhammad Ali's boxing title;  the removal of Avery Brundage as head of the U.S. Olympic committee because he was a white supremacist;  and to boycott South Africa and Rhodesia from the Olympics because of their apartheid policies.  The two Olympians protested specifically to cast a light on the troubles the African American community were facing in the U.S. at the time.</p>
<p>The July/August 2008 issue featured an article by Alice Leuchtag about Fannie Lou Hamer and the Mississippi Freedom Democratic Party's attempt to be represented in the 1964 Democratic Convention.  Hamer was a leader of the civil rights movement in Mississippi who believed that the only way to fight the segregated Mississippi political system was to establish a racially integrated Democratic Party.  They founded the Mississippi Freedom Democratic Party and during the Freedom Summer of 1964, volunteers went into homes, churches and cotton fields to sign up 60,000 members.  They selected 64 black and 4 white delegates to go to the Democratic Convention and to challenge the regular Democratic Party's all white Mississippi delegation and to be seated in their place as Mississippi's rightful delegation.  LBJ didn't want to show any disunity in his election fight against  Goldwater, so he did what he could to quietly shunt the integrated delegation to the side.  The protests of Hamer and the integrated delegation during the 1964 convention opened up other Southern states to greater African American political participation.</p>
<p>My favorite article is an obituary about Utah Phillips by John Pietro in the July/August 2008 issue.  He was a veteran of the Korean War, a drifter who entered a Catholic Worker home and was influenced by Ammon Hennacy, an anarchist and an associate of Dorothy Day.  From there, he added the influence of Woody Guthrie, Pete Seeger, the Borscht Belt comedians and various country musicians.  Phillips joined the Industrial Workers of the World, and became a lifelong member and global labor activist. </p>
<p>In the July/August 2008 issue, the Z Magazine staff made an appeal to the readers to encourage others to subscribe to the magazine.  I make this post because I think Z Magazine is a wonderful magazine that exposes ideas and points of view that you won't find anywhere else.  Our country needs to hear from a diversity of opinions, and I personally have gained much knowledge and have had things to ponder about.   I may not always agree with what is written, by I have benefitted from being challenged and from seeing the work of activists from around the world.  To learn more, go to <a href="http://www.zmag.org/zmag">http://www.zmag.org/zmag</a>.</p>

[caption id="attachment_27" align="aligncenter" width="497" caption="Mientras Ryan ejecuta su primera tarea, una corriente de imagines del pasado refresca mi memoria."]<a href="http://sebring72.files.wordpress.com/2008/09/img_1867.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-27     " title="img_1867" src="http://sebring72.wordpress.com/files/2008/09/img_1867.jpg" alt="Mientras Ryan ejecuta su primera tarea, un proyector de diapositivas se enciende en mi mente y..." width="497" height="372" /></a>[/caption]
<p> </p>
<p>Creo que el recuerdo mas preciso y a antiguo de mis primeros años de primaria, se remonta al segundo grado, cuando mi profesora -llamada Ana María- me retorcio el brazo con un pellizco atroz acompañado de un resonante regaño, por haber contado un chiste a toda la clase, que para la época resulto ser inapropiado y obsceno; aun cuando hoy en día no pasaría de ser un mal chiste, bobo y sin ninguna gracia. Recuerdo también mi primera riña en la que un gigantón de nombre Héctor Abel, me propino un demoledor golpe en el estomago que me mando al "knock-out" a tan solo segundos de iniciado el "primer asalto".</p>
<p>Con cuatro años tocaba el mas simple de los instrumentos en la banda de guerra: el triangulo, aunque lo peor no era eso, sino ver a mi hermano Juan Carlos ostentando el puesto de la batuta. Mi anhelo era llegar a "redoblante" pero no recuerdo si lo logre, al menos antes de terminar la primaria.</p>
<p>Lo mas emocionante era cuando al rector se le antojaba una congratulación masiva premiándonos con las películas en blanco y negro del "Llanero Solitario" . El suplicio mas aterrador era que lo castigaran a uno haciéndolo quedar después de clase, sentado sobre el concreto del patio, haciendo "escalas" matemáticas a sabiendas de que los lambones y mas ajuiciados de la clase disfrutaban ya en sus casas un nuevo capitulo de la serie que partió nuestras tiernas vidas en dos: El Capitán Centella.</p>
<p>Existía por aquel entonces la doble jornada, que no era otra cosa que ir a estudiar en la mañana, salir al mediodía a almorzar en la casa y regresar a otra tediosa tanda de clases en la tarde. Mi asignación monetaria era de dos pesos, pero recuerdo que los mas adinerados del salón les daban cinco. Fue así como di vía libre al mercado de intercambio de divisas mas popular de aquel entonces: las estampas del álbum de "Chocolatinas Jet", respaldado obviamente por el "ilimitado" suministro que tenia a dichas estampitas gracias al almacén de comestibles de mi madre. Mi competencia eran los Hermanos Alarcon, cuyos padres tenian otra tienda al frente del hospital local y en una ocasion echaron por tierra uno de mis grandes logros financieros: la venta a precio orbital de la tan ansiada y rara estampa de un pajarraco extinto llamado "el Dodo".</p>
<p>Alguna vez se han tragado un cuento tan absurdo e ilogico como fantástico? Pues resulta que uno de los ilustres mentirosos de la clase - un tal Augusto González, creo, cuyo padre tenia una venta de zapatos en la calle del comercio- nos aseguro que su papa había traído de la capital y disponía para la venta en su prestigiosa tienda; nada mas y nada menos que unas botas que...entiendase bien... permitían volar! Y una veintena de ingenuos boqui-abiertos dimos rienda suelta a la imaginación saboreando el potencial y los alcances de tan semejante innovación.</p>
<p>Las carreras de carritos "Majorette" -importados directamente desde Francia- eran junto a las canicas, los juegos de mayor importancia, hasta que fueron vetados por los profesores al notar que se estaba perdiendo demasiada tiza de tablero para trazar las pistas en el concreto o para pintar los círculos en los torneos de "rayuela". Fue así como el Rector se hizo a una de las colecciones de carritos mas envidiable que jamás haya visto, cortesia de los diarios decomisos y expropiaciones a cuanto frustrado corredor de autos encontraba con las manos en la masa. Recuerdo la fecha en que me confiscaron un sedan vinotinto que por desgracia ni siquiera era mío, sino que lo había tomado prestado sin consentimiento del reducido lote del ya mencionado hermano Juancho. Tampoco recuerdo el desenlace de dicho episodio.</p>
<p>Sacar una mala nota -proclamada a los cuatro vientos con un color rojo sangriento en la libreta de calificaciones- representaba un amargo despertar a la realidad y un dolor de cabeza que en cuestion de horas se convertía en dolor en el trasero a consecuencia de los fuetazos.</p>
<p>Esos fueron mis primeros años escolares. Ahora mi hijo disfruta su recreo en un patio alfombrado con resbaladeros sintéticos. Su aula parece la escena de un cuento infantil, no hay tablero ni tiza! Y luego de que le sirven el almuerzo duermen voluntariamente una siestita de tres horas. Sus héroes son los 4 Fantásticos, Spiderman, Ironman y Batman -todos mejorados y repotenciados, juntos harían añicos a Centella-. Solo le dejan tarea los lunes y los miércoles y no le preocupa en lo mas mínimo si se le pierde el borrador, porque ya no lo utilizan.</p>
<p>Mi hermana Paola acaba de graduarse de la universidad, pronto lo harán Angélica y Yesid. Ryan, el mas joven de todos, apenas empieza sus primeras semanas de clase.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align:justify;">Cada vez me cuesta más convencer a mi jefe para que me pague la nómina, pero hoy he visto que casi<img class="alignright size-full wp-image-249" src="http://soyandaluz.wordpress.com/files/2008/09/images.jpg" alt="" width="119" height="88" /> debo de alegrarme por ello...Resulta que el paro en España, ya supera los 2.500.000 de parados. Joder, con nuestro gobierno de izquierdas, joder con nuestro gobierno que utiliza la palabra obrero en su nombre, joder con la puta desaceleración económica, joder, que nos vamos a pique y el capitán del barco, no hace nada para evitarlo, ni el capitán ni toda su tripulación. Bueno, nosotros los españoles que pagamos impuestos tenemos dos capitanes, uno elegido como DIOS MANDA, y otro por la gracia del mismo DIOS. y curiosamente este segundo capitán que pinta menos que una panda de mancos (mis respetos a este gremio) va el tío, y se compra una peazo lancha hinchable de no sé cuantos millones de Euros, pero estoy demasiado cabreado con nuestro maravilloso ZP como para acordarme de la madre que parió a la lancha de Juan Carlos.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Ahora, llegará mi amigo Paquito, bueno él no, el politico socialista que lo ha devorado, y empezará a dar algún que otro sermón sobre mil historias, me apuesto mi cabellera a que no dice nada concreto. Y por supuesto, ni él, ni yo, ni mi wini the pooh gigante tenemos solución, pero es que lo más triste y peligroso es que ni el propio ministro de trabajo encuentra arreglo a este pozo sin fondo.<!--more--></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Aviso que las palabras que vendrán a continuación pueden resultar incluso hasta racistas, pido perdón de ante mano por si alguien se siente ofendido, pero este no es mi objetivo.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">En fin, allá voy, resulta, que como ESPAÑA, mi querida ESPAÑA, esta ESPAÑA MÍA, esta ESPAÑA NUESTRA, se vaya a freirle espárragos tendremos que volver otra vez a emigrar. Pero sólo hay un pequeño problema, el mejor país del mundo para ser emigrante es ESPAÑA, mi querida ESPAÑA, esta ESPAÑA MÍA, esta ESPAÑA NUESTRA. No tienen la culpa la gente que viene a buscar la comida, tiene la culpa nuestro presidente que pone más facilidades a los emigrantes que a los que estamos aquí dentro. Por lo tanto voy a sacar unas cuantas conclusiones o reflexiones...</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">- No voté a Zapatero, y creo que jamás lo voy a hacer, y por supuesto que votaré dentro de 4 años o la semana que viene.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">- Estoy muy cansado de tanta política social, de ecología, de chorradas varias, primero tendriamos que tener dinero para poder tener mejores productos y menos contaminantes, y el dinero se consigue trabajando, y el trabajo empieza a escasear. Hay que cambiar los coches antiguos porque contaminan mucho... La madre que parió al cambio climático. El próximo coche que me compre, si en el concesionario me aceptan la cartilla del paro, no bajará de los 200cv,</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">- ¿Qué hago voto al PP? Un partido de derechas, cristiano, monárquico, conservador.... pues va a ser que no</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">- ¿Qué hago voto a IU? unos idealistas románticos que parece que todavía no se han dado cuenta de que España nunca será republicana, para disgusto mío y parece ser que de dos o tres...</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">- ¿Qué hago voto a UPD? Rosa Díez.... todavía no ha demostrado nada...</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Así están las cosas. Íbamos a ganar 235.214 medallas de oro en las olimpiadas, e íbamos a hacer de España un país de fábula, pues ni una cosa ni la otra. Moraleja, pues que no hay moraleja...</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Ea, ahora que cada cual escriba lo que quiera, que no censuraré nada, incluso la ministra de los miembros y miembras tiene vía libre para decirme que soy un ignorante o un soplagaitas.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Y yo le voy a responder, no señora ministra de los miembros y miembras, sólo SOY ANDALUZ</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align:justify;"><a href="http://falsepercezioni.files.wordpress.com/2008/08/spagna2.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-574" src="http://falsepercezioni.wordpress.com/files/2008/08/spagna2.jpg" alt="" width="230" height="337" /></a><em>Il 29 giugno 2008 la Spagna ha vinto il Campionato Europeo di Calcio 2008. Luca Pakarov rievoca a modo suo quei giorni di euforia e generale impazzimento mediatico (e non solo mediatico). Vi ricordo, anche se lui probabilmente neanche vorrebbe, che Luca è anche autore di un gran bel libro, <a href="http://www.edizioniclandestine.com/index.php?option=com_content&#38;task=view&#38;id=61&#38;Itemid=30">Terminal</a>.<br />
</em></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><strong>Espana campeon</strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Più di mille anni di pellegrinaggi a Compostela alla fine hanno realizzato il miracolo. Il 29 giugno 2008 la Nazionale di calcio spagnola diventa campione d’Europa. Nella penisola iberica non si celebrava tanto dal XVI secolo, dal ritorno di Colombo con un bastimento d’indigene.<br />
<!--more--><br />
In quei giorni ronzavo da quelle parti, su e giù per il paese. Mi sono gustato tutto il processo, l’avanzamento, partita per partita, giorno per giorno, campeones. Una fiammella che è diventata un incendio. L’entusiasmo, torsi brillanti, ebbri, offensivi, coraggiosi, con le entragna rimestate, strimpellavano nel baccanale disordine delle strade. Ho visto, mi sono meravigliato di quante bandiere sono saltate fuori dall’armadio, l’ispanità così poco di moda nella comunità valenziana, catalana e basca, è stata rispolverata, messa in lavatrice, lucidata, urlata ed appesa alla terrazza, stretta al collo, arrotolata sul polso, aperta sul lunotto posteriore della macchina. Le maglie delle furie rosse a ruba nei negozi, balbuzienti a cantare, mutilati giù a danzare. L’ipnotico imbonimento ha alzato la temperatura, un febbricitante, epilettico schiamazzo che ha spazzato via ogni angoscia politica, ogni torva povertà. All’improvviso, il pedigree spagnolo è diventato un valore aggiunto, mai più una macchia; una volta tanto la lingua di Cervantes ha trovato una patria e un po’ di pace. Un bricolage di nazionalismo che ha mandato in brodo di giuggiole anche Juan Carlos, sempre lì trionfale, tartufesco a sorridere, ad applaudire e stringere mani, quando inquadrato. Fautrice del rinato orgoglio nazionale è stata senza dubbio, non le tattiche di Aragones o gli interventi in scivolata di Puyol, no di certo, è stata la Cuattro, la rete che ogni giorno s’è spesa in almeno cinque ore di diretta forzata, insaccando insignificanti servizi giornalistici nelle menti di solitari sonnambuli del pomeriggio, ingenuamente naufragati sugli strilli dei reporter. Un lavoro certosino ed asfissiante, che ha avuto il suo momento più liturgico nello slogan “podemos”, possiamo, che, ripetuto all’inverosimile e svincolato da qualsiasi genere di argomento (economia, cronaca, animali), veniva imitato da chiunque avesse una telecamera a portata di culo, da chiunque al supermercato azzardasse un commento sugli europei. Ad un certo punto usare il verbo “podemos” all’infuori del contesto calcistico veniva sottolineato in blu, grave errore grammaticale. C’era poi il momento del rito portafortuna, che in ogni match veniva propiziato da profeti cronisti esaltati e che consisteva nel lavorare la trippa di un fantoccio dei colori della squadra avversaria con spilloni voodoo per poi, imbrattato, vessato ed ingiuriato a dovere, senza nessun rammarico, affogarlo nel bicchiere d’acqua del conduttore. Comunque c’è da prenderne atto, la stregoneria ha funzionato. Credo però, ne sono quasi certo, è mio avviso, d’aver assistito al classico cattivo gusto di una medicina di football invasiva che mai sazia, non si è limitata ad informarci sull’altezza dell’erba del campo o ad intervistare l’autista crucco del pullman della nazionale, ma è andata oltre, e non avendo sotto mano i giocatori per qualche gossip d’estate, nessun colpo di mercato sensazionale, ha scavalcato ogni palizzata del buonsenso ed è entrata nella casa dei deboli, finendo in certi paesini dimenticati da Dio dove nonne, zie, cugine degli stessi inconsapevoli giocatori, senza preavviso, sono state messe al centro del mondo, sotto la luce dello spettacolo. Facendo leva sulla fierezza che gli incolpevoli protagonisti della sceneggiata provavano per i propri cari impegnati in Austria e Svizzera, sono stati aggirati dalla macchina da presa con la pretestuosa venerazione che giornalisti porta a porta, mostravano per ogni particolare, ogni foto, ogni oggetto che ricordasse i transitori eroi di un estate memorabile. Le bestie si sono superate e le nonnine, il maestro, gli amici della prima squadra di calcio sono state convinte a parlare e straparlare di come l’attaccante fosse intuitivo in matematica, di come al centrocampista uno, con ghiaccio e fasce elastiche, gli salvò la carriera dopo essersi slogato la caviglia, di cosa il capitano mangiasse durante il Natale. La nonna di Casillas ha dovuto cucinare il piatto preferito del nipote, ha fritto calamari alla romana in diretta, mentre alla madre sdentata di Güiza è toccato spiegare tutte le qualità divinatorie dei santini che adornavano il televisore e messi in gioco dopo un’attenta selezione, per l’occasione, per sostenere la nazionale. Queste nullità sono state persuase che anche loro, con paellas, compiti in classe e tirate d’orecchie, hanno contribuito alle vittorie degli europei. Lo stesso Zapatero dal canto suo, icona socialista, baluardo rosso, non s’è mica tirato indietro; chiamato a parlare della crisi economica, ha montato un bello show di funamboli, tigri e leoni dove, inverosimilmente, in diretta, lui, capo del governo spagnolo, interrogava l’allenatore e il capitano della nazionale! L’ho visto chiedere le condizioni di salute di Villa, com’era l’animo dello spogliatoio e di come vivesse l’allenatore di tanta gloria! Il calcio intervistato dalla politica! All’uomo medio è stata scavata la fossa, mentre le divinità sono salite su, più in alto ancora. Quinto mondo per dio! Dopo un piccolo stacco, Zap s’è ricomposto sullo sgabello, ha messo bene le spalle orizzontali ed ha accennato alla questione della crisi immobiliare, ai mutui, qualcosa sulla benzina, e un rassicurante presto finirà! È come se avessero spento la luce ed acceso il gas. Adelante pueblo! Geniale… per una volta tanto devo dire che nemmeno nel bel paese s’è mai arrivato a tanto.<br />
Certo, vecchia storia, quella dello sport che unisce, anche se a me quasi fa perdere un occhio a causa di un imbecille muscoloso, tatuato e sorridente che mitragliava ad altezza uomo fuochi d’artificio. Nessuno l’ha fermato, è una festa questa, ci sono molti più diritti che doveri. Quel giorno la rete privata Cuattro ha conteso alla rete nazionale, con due palchi distinti a Madrid, l’arrivo dei campioni d’Europa. La città deraglia, usciva fuori dai confini, straripava qua e là, dall’aeroporto la strada chiusa nei due sensi di marcia, poi l’Avenida America, arrampicati sui tralicci, a scattare foto, a zompare da una transenna all’altra, a bere poi a bere ed abbracciarsi, fino ad arrivare a Plaza Colon dove Television Española aveva preparato tartine e spumante e qualche migliaio di tifosi uno sopra l’altro. I giocatori sull’autobus facevano delle cose, scimmiottavano, salivano sulla schiena, salutavano ed ovviamente bevevano. Aragones, tattico spericolato anche quando sonnecchia sulla panchina, accusato di razzismo, era in quel momento ordinato con le sue settanta primavere, già con un contratto in tasca per Fenerbahçe, e si teneva il cuore elargendo pochi sorrisi, solo si capiva bene la sua voglia che tutto fosse finito presto.<br />
Comunque sia, i rigoristi De Rossi e Di Natale hanno fatto la loro parte per aiutare il governo facendo salire alle stelle le azioni di Cruz Campo, Estrella, Amstell e Damm. Mai s’era venduto tanto dopo un evento sportivo ammette orgoglioso un manager delle birre nel giornale locale l’Informacion. Prima della nazionale di Donadoni, la città di Alicante dove ero in quei giorni, ci ricordava soprattutto per un bombardamento nel ‘38 dove aerei marcati “Savoia” di Mussolini, sotto il comando dei franchisti, uccise circa quattrocento persone nel Mercado Central de Abastos. Ora, grazie all’ingloriosa uscita dall’europeo, dovremmo aver pareggiato i conti. A pensarci bene forse no, visto che poco giorni fa il governo popolare di Alicante ha votato per il mantenimento dei simboli franchisti… che Mussolini abbia ammazzato quelli giusti?</p>

<p class="first"><strong>Accident investigators have begun examining the wreckage of a plane that crashed at Madrid's Barajas airport, leaving 153 passengers dead.</strong></p>
<p>They will also start to analyze the flight data and voice recorders, which have both been recovered.</p>
<p>Three days of official mourning have been declared in Madrid, as relatives arrive at a makeshift mortuary in the capital to identify bodies.</p>
<p>Nineteen people survived the crash and several are critically hurt. <!-- E SF --></p>
<p>Of the 19 survivors of Spanair flight JK 5022, four are listed as being in a "very serious" condition, with another six only slightly better, Spain's El Pais newspaper reported on Thursday. Eight remain under observation with one only slightly injured, the newspaper said.<!-- S IBOX --></p>

<p><!-- E IBOX -->Spanish Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero is expected to visit the injured in Madrid's hospitals, while King Juan Carlos will visit Barajas airport.</p>
<p>The king is also likely to visit anxious families waiting for the grim confirmation that their loved-ones are among the dead.</p>
<p>Experts at a temporary mortuary near the airport say work to identify the dead is likely to be slow and painstaking, as many of the bodies were badly burned in Wednesday's inferno.</p>
<p>"The worst is the identification of the bodies," Red Cross spokesman Jesus Lopes Santana told the El Mundo newspaper.</p>
<p>"It is the end of all hope and when we see the worst scenes, because the majority of the relatives break down when they hear the news."</p>

<p>The Spanair flight, bound for Las Palmas in the Canary Islands, took off on Wednesday lunchtime with 172 people on board, among them 10 crew.</p>
<p>Initial reports suggested that a fire had broken out in one of the MD82 plane's engines during or shortly after take-off, and the plane ended up in a field.</p>
<p>Spanish Transport Minister Magdalena Alvarez said the plane had earlier begun taxiing to the runway, before turning back because of a technical problem, which had caused an hour's delay in the take-off.</p>
<h1></h1>
<p>Spanish media said the pilot had reported a fault with a temperature gauge, but it was thought to have been fixed.</p>
<p>Speaking on Thursday, Ms Alvarez said a thorough investigation would be carried out, with a full examination of the flight recorders and available pictures, but that it was very early to draw conclusions about the crash.</p>
<p>A special independent commission has been established to probe the cause of the crash, Spanish media reported.</p>
<p><strong>Anger</strong></p>
<p>Spanair has released the official passenger manifest, confirming reports that 20 children and two babies were on board the plane.</p>
<p>Among those who survived were three children, aged six, eight and 11, reports said. At least one of the 19 survivors has yet to be identified.<!-- S IBOX --></p>

<p><!-- E IBOX -->Overnight a long convoy of black hearses rolled out of the airport grounds to carry bodies to the makeshift mortuary, where the victims' relatives had gathered, some of whom had traveled from the Canary Islands.</p>
<p>The convention center on the outskirts of the capital was also used as a mortuary after the Madrid train bombings four years ago.</p>
<p>Many of the relatives have expressed anger and disgust at Spanair, blaming it for the accident.</p>
<p>He says the injured include a young brother and sister, who immediately asked rescue workers about their parents.</p>
<p>Spanish ministers said foul play had been ruled out and the crash was considered to be an accident.</p>
<p>The 15-year-old plane had passed a safety inspection in January, said Sergio Allard, a spokesman for Spanair, which is owned by Scandinavian firm SAS.</p>
<p>Spanish media said some German, Swedish, Chilean and Colombian nationals had been among the passengers.</p>
<p><strong>'All destruction'</strong></p>
<p>Spanish Prime Minister Jose Luis Zapatero cut short his holiday in the south of the country to visit the scene of the crash. <!-- S IIMA --></p>

<p>Television images on Wednesday showed plumes of smoke rising over the field in which the remains of the plane were resting.</p>
<p>Emergency services chief Ervigio Corral said that rescue workers had been faced with "a desolate scene".</p>
<p>"You couldn't distinguish that there was an aircraft there apart from the remains of the tail," he said. "There was nothing of fuselage."</p>
<p>Another rescue worker, Pablo Albella, told AP news agency: "The fuselage is destroyed. The plane burned. I have seen a kilometer of charred land and few whole pieces of the fuselage. It is all destruction."</p>
<p>Messages of sympathy have been sent to Spain by leaders around the world.</p>
<p>The presidents of Russia, France and Italy, Germany's chancellor and Britain's queen joined with Latin American leaders in sending their condolences.</p>
<p>It was the deadliest air accident in Spain since a Colombian airline's Boeing 747 crashed in Madrid in 1983 killing 181 people.</p>

<description><![CDATA[As reported by Jonathan Mayo in MLB.com&#8217;s Geeking the Draft blog, lat flier pick for the Reds ]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As reported by Jonathan Mayo in MLB.com's <a href="http://draft.mlblogs.com/" target="_blank">Geeking the Draft</a> blog, lat flier pick for the Reds JC Sulbaran seems to be lured away from college (Florida, where he had a strong commitment) for a well above slot bonus.  The Reds drafted JC Sulbaran from the high school baseball factory American Heritage high School in the 30th round, which may now be looking like an absolute steal.  Other teams were shying away because of his college commitment.  I don't think he would have gone much higher than round 15 but still.  JC is no lightweight, he is currently pitching for Netherlands in the Beijing Olympics.</p>
<p>His senior year of high school he went 11-0/1.40, striking out 88 in 67 innings.  Those stats might seem inflated, but the level of competition American Heritage played this season is pretty stout as they traveled to different states to take on nationally ranked teams.  More recently he pitched in the recent Haarlem Baseball Tournament in the Netherlands this summer and in his one start he allowed one hit and one run while striking out 6 (walking 7 though) against a very tough Cuba team.</p>
<p>Currently there are no cards available for Sulbaran and he will likely sit until next season, but make sure you remember to keep his name at the top of your lists for prospects in the Reds organization.  He might end up being the steal of the entire 2008 draft.</p>

<p>Hugo Cávez ha desvelado el misterio y ha mostrado en televisión la camiseta con el lema ¿<a href="http://www.diariojuridico.com/asides/el-porque-del-conflicto-del-campo-en-argentina.html" target="_blank">por qué no te callas?</a> que le regalo el Rey la semana pasada en durante el encuentro entre ambos en Mallorca. En una intervención su programa semanal de televisión <a href="http://www.diariojuridico.com/noticias/en-casa-de-herrero-reprueban-99-por-ciento-de-los-aspirantes-a-profesores-de-autoescuela.html" target="_blank">Aló presidente</a>, Chávez ha asegurado que Venezuela "es respetada en el mundo" y que tuvo "una reunión muy buena" con don Juan Carlos, con quien dijo tener una amistad "desde el primer día".</p>
<p>"Bromeamos un rato (el pasado viernes). El rey y yo somos amigos desde el primer día, así que tenía que llegar el día del reencuentro después del incidente que hubo allá en Santiago; un incidente que fue por supuesto sobredimensionado" por los medios de comunicación, ha añadido entre risas Chávez en su programa dominical. Sin embargo, el misterio de quién, en primer lugar, dio al Rey la famosa camiseta sigue sin desvelarse ya que Chávez ha indicado que Juan Carlos I le pidió no revelar su nombre "porque a él se la mandó un amigo y me dijo que la había guardado porque sabía que algún día íbamos a conversar".</p>
<p>En la fotografía estampada en la ya célebre prenda también figura el presidente del Gobierno español, José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero, y el ministro español de exteriores, Miguel Angel Moratinos, presentes en el famosos incidente entre el mandatario venezolano y el monarca español durante la Cumbre Iberomaricana celebrada en Chile a finales de 2007. Chávez ha asegurado que "los tres son buenos amigos y las reuniones (que mantuvo con ellos en España) fueron muy buenas, en un clima extraordinario (...). Bueno, entonces, he ahí Venezuela respetada en el mundo".</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Parece que para o rei Juan Carlos (da Espanha) e para o presidente da Venezuela, Hugo Chávez, um aperto de mão selaria a desavença após o incidente                   do "por que no te callas?", na cimeira Ibero-americana em Santiago do Chile. <img class="alignright" src="http://oglobo.globo.com/fotos/2008/07/25/25_MVB_mun_chavez.jpg" alt="" width="190" height="220" /></p>
<p>É a primeira vez que o <span style="text-decoration:line-through;">casal</span>, digo, que os governantes se encontram pela primeira vez após o <span style="text-decoration:line-through;">ótimo</span> lamentável incidente.</p>
<p>Segundo a agência <em>EFE</em>, Chávez deslocou-se ao Palácio Marivent, residência de Verão dos reis da Espanha em Palma de Maiorca, pouco antes das 11:30 locais (10:30 em Lisboa), uma hora depois do previsto, para se reunir com o monarca.</p>
<p>A recepção durou quatro minutos, num ambiente relaxado em que Chávez chegou mesmo a perguntar ao rei: "por que não vamos à praia?", depois de comentar o calor que se faz sentir na ilha mediterrânea, que comparou as Caraíbas.</p>
<p>Fonte: <a href="http://diario.iol.pt/sociedade/chavez-juan-carlos-espanha-venezuela-palma-de-maiorca-por-que-no-te-callas/975261-4071.html">Diário Online de Portugal</a></p>
<p>________________________________________<br />
Primeiro brigaram, depois reataram o <span style="text-decoration:line-through;">namoro</span>, digo, acordo ! Já no primeiro encontro, Chávez convida Ju-Ju pra "La playa" e diz estar com muito calor ....</p>
