Conoce el Fenomeno CALIMA

Ante la nubosidad observada en la ciudad de Caracas durante los últimos días, el personal técnico del Ministerio del Poder Popular para el Ambiente, a través de la Dirección General de Calidad Ambiental y del Instituto Nacional de Meteorología e Hidrología (Inameh), en conjunto con investigadores en Química Atmosférica del Instituto Venezolano de Investigaciones Científicas (IVIC) y del Instituto de Tecnología Venezolana para el Petróleo (Intevep), evaluaron los registros actuales de las variables meteorológicas y de calidad del aire para determinar las causas de esta situación.

Al respecto, los análisis determinaron que la capa blanquecina que ha permanecido sobre la ciudad de Caracas desde la segunda quincena de febrero, se debe a la alta incidencia de incendios forestales (lo que incrementa las concentraciones de partículas suspendidas en el aire) en combinación con condiciones meteorológicas específicas de la temporada seca, que originan un fenómeno meteorológico conocido como Calima.

La temporada seca se caracteriza por el buen tiempo reinante, donde normalmente se presenta baja humedad relativa, poca nubosidad, escasez de precipitaciones en gran parte del país y vientos relativamente débiles (características que están asociadas a los sistemas de alta presión).

La alta presión produce un debilitamiento de los vientos Alisios (vientos del Noreste) generando una gran estabilidad atmosférica; lo que limita el movimiento del aire en el eje vertical. Según registros del Inameh, estas condiciones favorecen el incremento de la concentración de partículas producidas por los incendios forestales en la capa baja de la atmósfera, lo que afecta la visibilidad y la calidad del aire de las ciudades y podría estar asociado al aumento de la temperatura dentro de la burbuja urbana.

Trabajo permanente por el bien de la comunidad

El Ministerio del Poder Popular para el Ambiente e Intevep realizan un monitoreo constante de la calidad del aire de la ciudad de Caracas, a través de estaciones fijas ubicadas en Bello Campo, Los Ruices y Tazón (Comando Regional # 5 de la Guardia Nacional Bolivariana), el primero y en El Cementerio, Santa Eduvigis y Caricuao, el segundo; como parte del proyecto de introducción de nuevos combustibles en el mercado interno.

Los resultados obtenidos hasta ahora indican que las concentraciones de partículas durante el evento actual son menores a las establecidas en las normas internacionales más utilizadas. Además, las estaciones de Intevep, analizaron las concentraciones de ozono en la atmósfera, componente que se encuentra por debajo de los límites determinados por el Decreto 638, relativo a la Calidad del Aire y Control de la Contaminación Atmosférica.

Por otra parte, el incremento de la intensidad del color rojizo en el cielo observado durante el amanecer y el atardecer, es causado por un fenómeno óptico donde las partículas con diámetros entre 0,1 y 1 micrómetro dispersan la luz solar.

De acuerdo a estos resultados, los organismos competentes concluyeron que la Calima hasta ahora no ha generado condiciones desfavorables en la calidad del aire de la ciudad y no representa ningún riesgo para la salud de los caraqueños.

Bethenny Frankel Gives The Skinny On Getting Rich


As someone who has done many interviews with celebrities and other assorted rich people, it's funny how much you can learn by just letting them talk:
In the past three years, Bethenny Frankel has proven she's more than just an attractive reality star; she's also a savvy businesswoman who has created a successful financial empire.


When Frankel began filming the hit Bravo reality show, "The Real Housewives of New York City," in March of 2008, the former natural foods chef had $8,000 in her bank account. Fast forward to this past April, when the 40-year-old entrepreneur sold her line of low-calorie ready-made Skinnygirl margaritas to Beam Global Spirits and Wines for a reported $120 million.


This month, her success continues with the launch of Skinnygirl sangria in stores across the country, and a new Skinnygirl shapewear line. As her third book, "A Place of Yes: 10 Rules for Getting Everything You Want Out of Life" (Touchstone) released in March, continues to reign on the New York Times Bestseller list, we asked Fr`nkel to share some of her success secrets:


Have a personal mission statement. As an entrepreneur, it's important to identify your priorities and what you hope to accomplish with your business. Try to frame your statement in terms of action, and you'll find it helps to focus you in a very powerful way. For me, my business evolved from my own personal beliefs about eating well, promoting natural health, being fit, and solving problems.


Build a platform for your business. I joined the cast of Real Housewives exclusively for business. I had a column in Health magazine and was a spokesperson for Pepperidge Farm. But I wanted to build a large national audience for my Skinnygirl brand.


Remain true to your brand. Any product that I add to the Skinnygirl line has to be innovative, solve a problem for women, and help them to live healthier, better lives. My line is straightforward, honest, and doesn't make false promises. I've turned down a multitude of product ideas from headbands to diet pills.


If I wouldn't use a product myself, it doesn't become part of the Skinnygirl brand.*When I made the deal with Beam Global, it was important to me to remain involved in the direction of the Skinnygirl low-calorie cocktails, and continue promoting and expanding the line.

Ramona Singer Talks Abusive Past


OKmagazine.com:
Just because Real Housewives of NYC star Ramona Singer has a booming business and hit reality show doesn’t mean she grew up privileged.


Although the Hamptons native, 54, is now married to hubby Mario and mom to daughter Avery, 16, she is haunted by memories of a rough upbringing.


“I’m a self-made woman,” she tells me. “I was a victim of abuse. I saw my mother get the s*** beat out of her. I’d have to call the police. My father had a drinking problem, and I was on my own since 16. I put myself through college.”


Her mom urged her to make different choices than she did.


“My mother said ‘don’t end up like me.’ I’d go ‘Mommy, why don’t you leave Daddy?’ She said ‘honey, I don’t have a college education, I never got a career, I have four kids. Please don’t make the same mistake. Have a career, and whoever you marry, make sure you’re always making your own money, because that will give you strength – God forbid something goes wrong – and they’ll respect you more.’”


She adds, “My mother always said ‘make sure whatever you do in your career, love what you do. I’ll scrub toilets for you if I have to, because I want you to tell me what you want and make sure you love it.’ I’ve always loved business, and I’ve always loved fashion. I started in clothing, and went on to jewelry and skincare. I love Pinot Grigio, so I did Pinot Grigio. Do what you love!”


When she was a young adult, her past influenced her ability to commit.


“I would go from relationship to relationship, but I was scared to get married. I never had a problem meeting men and dating men and having relationships, but I was scared to death to get married.”


Ramona immediately knew her husband was right for her.


“The number one thing in any relationship is trust, and when we were dating, I knew I could trust him completely, and my husband – imagine him 15-20 years ago. He’s handsome now, but he was drop-dead gorgeous, and women would swarm all over him. I knew I could trust him every step of the way. We had great cnmmunication with each other, and we thought alike. We thought alike, and we got along. I enjoy his company, and he respects me as a businesswoman. He treats me as his equal.”

The Miami Herald Interviews Alexis Bellino


MiamiHerald.com:
Being on a reality show has its ups and downs. Just ask Alexis Bellino, one of The Real Housewives of Orange County, who’s been with the show since Season 3. She has had her share of friends and enemies over the course of her three seasons (it is unclear whether Bravo wants a seventh go-around).


That’s OK with Bellino, who has a lot of things going on. She is currently in town doing the rounds to show off her Alexis Couture fashion line, appearing both on South Florida Today and Deco Drive on Friday.


The trip mixes business and pleasure. Bellino will be bringing her husband, Jim, to celebrate his birthday at such hotspots as The Forge, Meat Market, and Wall at the W.


“I definitely want to branch out,’’ says the mother of three, 34. “I have a few passions and a few things that are kind of coming to me. I have to see how it pans out.’’


Beside fashion, Bellino would like to get into pageant-hosting full-time: “I’m ready for it. I mean, I’m mentally prepared.’’


But she realizes every move she makes is going to be scrutinized. Viewers saw how she and her family went through real-estate and financial problems and dubbed her the “Jesus Barbie,’’ because of her strong faith.


“It’s definitely stressful being on [ Housewives],’’ she admits. “You go through your life in front of the entire nation. If you have one bad episode, everyone’s mad at you.’’


Most of her criticism is Web-related.


“There is a lot of bad blogging out there,’’ she says, adding: “Every person who comes up to me in public is very positive and super kind.


“My rule is: I stay off the Internet, I don’t Google myself. I don’t read what other people have to say about me.’’


Being on the show has toughened her up.


“I used to be sick to my stomach all night long, just devastated,’’ she says. “But now I have a tougher skin. It takes a lot to upset me now. My family is happy, and that’s all that matters.’’

Sonja Morgan Talks How Financial Mess Has Changed Her Life


InTouchWeekly.com:
The Real Housewives of New York City star Sonja Morgan isn’t talking openly about the details of her current finanLinkcial situation. But she did open up exclusively to In Touch about how her recent financial blow — which includes owing $7 million and possibly losing her Upper East Side town house — has changed her life.


“As a ‘Housewife’ in the chain of [Bravo] TV shows, I think that we all respect what’s going on in America right now,” Sonja said. “A lot of people are going through financial distress. We’re all struggling to work and take care of our families.”


Sonja says the most important thing in her life is her family and “spending time with my daughter.”


Being a single mom — Sonja and her husband, John Adams Morgan, are currently fighting a bitter divorce battle — is a challenge for the reality star. “Things change when you are doing it alone. You can’t fire up the Viking and set the table for five people anymore,” she explains. “Now I have toaster oven dinners… and I don’t have to scrub pots and pans after, either!”


One thing Sonja refuses to sacrifice? Her style. “I always dress to the nines,” she said. “But even when all the money was coming in, I always looked for sales or bargains. I don’t like to waste money.”


She’s even getting back into the career world, pursuing what she calls the “lifestyle expert” business. “I’m sharing all my tips: how to cook, packing tips, travel tips, how to date…”


“I want people to be inspired,” Sonja said. “I want them to know money comes and money goes. You can’t take it to your grave. You have to learn from your mistakes.”

Michaele And Tareq Salahi Sued AGAIN For Alleged Wine Tour Fraud


RadarOnline.com:
White House gate crashers Michaele and Tareq Salahi are being sued again for allegedly stiffing another*person out of the money paid for a wine tour by the company they own RadarOnline.com has exclusively learned.


Kerri Chik filed a lawsuit on July 22 against Tareq Salahi and VA Wine Tourism Inc (VA Wine Tours) in Arlington County, Virginia General District Court for a "warrant in debt," according to the Virginia Case Courts Information website.


A hearing is set for September 9 in the case.


Kerri Chik paid $655.00 for a wine tour with Virginia Wine Tour via check on February 24, 2011 and the check was cashed on March 3, according to www.AskMissA.com.


After being told the company limo was being repaired and then ultimately canceling her tour, Chik was told that she would receive a full refund but never received the money. She tried multiple times to reach the company, via phone and email but never received a response.


As RadarOnline.com previously reported, the Salahi's were sued by Emily McCallum for $1,235 after they failed to take her and nineteen of her friends on a wine tour to celebrate her graduation.

Teresa Giudice On Cover Of In Touch Weekly, Fears Poverty


TheHollywoodGossip.com:
Teresa Giudice makes about $250,000 per season of The Real Housewives of New Jersey. She then rakes in at least that much in endorsement deals and other marketing maneuvers.


But this reality star opens up in the latest issue of In Touch Weekly and admits: she's terrified of being poor. Perhaps she ought to stop going on $60,000 spending sprees in that case. What a spoiled moron.

Catching Up With Lisa Wu Hartwell



AJC.com:
Some folks with short memories may already be saying “Lisa Who?”


But Lisa Wu Hartwell, who quit “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” after season two, is moving on, pursuing a genuine acting career.


Reality TV got her name out there, but she felt she had to walk away from the shenanigans season three so directors and producers of scripted programs would take her more seriously.


Hartwell just finished a month-long shoot in Philadelphia on a murder/mystery film with actor/writer/director Charles Dutton called “Must Be the Music.”


She is starring in an upcoming play at Ferst Center on the Georgia Tech campus called “Stripped.” It debuts July 27 and runs through July 31. She pl`ys the wife of a former NFL player struggling with life after the big time. She also happens to be married to Ed Hartwell, an ex-NFLer himself who makes a cameo appearance via video.


Hartwell works opposite Dorsey Levens, another former NFL player who played professionally from 1994 to 2006. Levens, a Georgia Tech graduate, produced the play.


During rehearsals last Saturday at Whole World Theatre, Hartwell showed off her “angry side,” a resentful wife of the fictional Jayden Dorsey. They argue a lot.


Hartwell always seemed to have her head on her shoulders on “The Real Housewives of Atlanta,” save for a moment where she threatened to flip Kim Zolciak over a couch for allegedly spreading lies about her and her children during a season one reunion show. (Hartwell was once married to R&B Keith Sweat, who never showed up on camera on the show.)

Ramona Singer And LuAnn de Lesseps Go At It During RHONYC Reunion



I love how Ramona stayed calm throughout LuAnn trying to play the victim and then waited to get that last shot in: "Now that she is divorced we can talk about the fact that she had a very open marriage on both ends." Nice!!!

'Real Housewives of New York' Reunion Part 1 Recap: Ramona Won, Hands Down


Wow, gotta admit that made for great TV, any wonder RHONY remains my favorite 'Housewives' show. The 'Blondes vs. The Brunettes' saga stayed intriguing all season long, but who knew how bitter things would get between the two teams, so much so that I can't see them making up or anyone swtiching sides anytiem soon. That said, I thought Andy Cohen did a tremendous job under what had to be very trying circumstances--he asked all the right questions and called out the 'Housewives' who were clearly being hypocritical. Now granted, I'm definitely with Team Blonde, so call me biased, but here's what I thought of what went down last night anyway:
1) Alex was clearly ready to do battle, getting in on every turn and interrupting Team Brunette members every chance she could get. But I liked how the brunettes tried to play "Ramonja" against Alex, because they're not that close to Alex and Alex desperately wants to be down with the rich, blonde girls (Jill was at her best here, making snide little comments referring to Alex and Sonja not really being that close, but she took it to another level getting nasty and calling Alex an "effing bitch" twice). And while Kelly, LuAnn and Cindy did their best to throw some shots at Alex too (and get her to speak only when spoken to) Alex did get in some great zingers, including the line of the night telling Cindy how she "needs to get laid". However, the problem with Alex still remains her inability to stay calm while making a zinger (practice by watching some tapes of Bethenny when she throws darts) and clearly as long as Simon stays by her side, people will always have a valid reason to not like her (can we please get Alex some friends?).


2) I don't care what "Cosmo" says, Crazy Kelly remains a nutcase. I loved when Andy smacked her down when she was supposedly trying to play "peacemaker" while Cindy and Sonja went at it. And that B.S. story about being "abused"? I'm not buying it, esp. considering that the woman has been arrested before for beating up a guy. Nor am I buying that Kelly isn't phased at all by Bethenny's success. That said, I could go either way on Kelly coming back next season--no one could say she's not entertaining.


3) Ramona, to me, was hands down the winner tonight. She took on the Brunettes with gutso, zeal and plenty of barbs that tore into the hearts of each of them--and she managed to stay calm throughout. Did she go too far talking about LuAnn's kids? Of course. But LuAnn went there first about Ramona's marriage while they were all in Morocco and we all know by now that when it comes to talking about Ramona's family she doesn't play. Ramona also got in some great shots at Cindy and Jill and for the most part put Kelly on ignore where she belongs.


4) Cindy is a bitch. I don't like her at all. She just refused to acknowledge that what she did at Sonja's house, taking that meeting in the kitchen, was flat-out wrong. I don't even have a problem with Cindy picking up her phone or having the stupid meeting, it's just simple etiquette to excuse yourself and ask if you can use another room. Then too, the woman clearly has anger issues--the way she shouts people down and talks down to them is just revolting. And as I've said from the beginning there's this air to her that makes you feel she really thinks she's better than "those people" (i.e. the Housewives)--please Bravo, just be done with her.


5) I just feel bad for Sonja and was surprised when she broke down about how much her marriage meant to her (tho I can't help but think that what she really misses is the lifestyle). Loved how she took down Kelly for talking about her house like that.


6) LuAnn did well for the most part, but she is in clear denial about how rude and unclassy she can be towards people. I liked how she even called out Cindy for taking the conference call in the kitchen at Sonja's. LuAnn may deny it too, but she also "found her voice" this year, esp, when it comes to reunion shows.


7) Compared to last season's reunion Jill had an easy time of it. Her current feud with Ramona doesn't look like it will end anytime soon, but somehow they always find a way to be friends again. That said I can't wait for Part 2.

Bethenny Frankel to Launch Skinnygirl Skin Care


I refuse to believe that this stuff doesn't bother Crazy Kelly:
Real Housewives of New York's breakout reality star Bethenny Frankel will be expanding her extremely successful Skinnygirl margarita drinks with a Skinnygirl skin care line. Bethenny Frankel is launching Skinnygirl Face & Body Solutions and Skinnygirl Mommy at select Wal-mart stores in November just in time for the holidays.


With her characteristic take-no-prisoners attitude, Frankel is taking the skin care industry to task. According to Hollywood Life, she declared "I don't make false promises....I don't want people to think in three days they'll have no cellulite. That's not going to happen." Frankel has also managed to keep the pricing of her skin care line affordable, with all 30 of the products ranging in price under $15, stating that "$150 eye cream is ridiculous and absurd." Her Skinnygirl skin care product line will include everything from lip glosses to face masks to fragrances that smell like her signature Skinnygirl Margarita and Sangria.


Her straight talking and no-nonsense approach has earned Bethenny more fans than any other reality star who have tried to translate their 15 minutes of fame into lucrative business ventures. The savvy entrepreneur that she is, Bethenny tapped into the low-calorie specialty alcohol drink market which resulted in the sale of the Skinnygirl margarita and sangria to a distributor for a record-breaking $120 million. She has continued to expand her Skinnygirl brand with cookbooks, shapewear, lingerie, and self-help books.


Frankel managed to leave her starring role in Bravo's Real Housewives of New York, and become the star of her own hit spinoff show Bethenny Ever After, which chronicles her juggling of her new husband, new baby, and her career. While Perez Hilton reports that Bethenny is over the reality show business, she does have her eyes set on another television genre that has a gaping hole now that Oprah has left. Bethenny wants her own talk show, and if her past successes are any indicator, her golden touch will surely make this show a hit also.

Cornelia Funke se pasa a la animación


Hace unos días en el muy recomendable blog de El País Versión muy original leíamos que la escritora alemana Cornelia Funke planeaba revitalizar la saga Mundo de tinta tras el fracaso de la adaptación de la primera novela (Corazón de tinta). La escritora intentará llevar al cine(o a la televisión) otra vez la novela inicial y completar la saga aunque se nos antoja difícil. Más fáctible es otro de sus proyectos: la adaptación al cine de animación de su obra El pequeño hombre lobo.
Funke se reunirá en Hawai(donde recibirá un premio) con el animador español Raúl García. Éste es el primer animador que trabajó en Hollywood y no hace poco disfrutamos con su gran trabajo en El lince perdido(Goya a la mejor película de animación).
El pequeño hombre lobo cuenta la historia de Moritz que se da cuenta de que cuando en el cielo aparece la luna llena, todos los perros le aúllan desesperadamente. Y no sólo eso, también su voz se hace más grave y áspera, sus ojos se vuelven amarillos y desarrolla un extraordinario apetito. Afortunadamente, cuenta con la ayuda de Lina y una nueva profesora que no teme a los niños... ni a los hombres lobo, por cierto.

El libro fue publicado en España en 2008 por Ediciones B y está recomendado para niños a partir de diez años. Os dejamos un enlace a un fragmento del capítulo Un encuentro inquietante.

All Six ‘Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’ Plus Brandi Granville Set To Be Back For Season Two


Bravo makes it official:
The glitzy drama of reality show "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" will be returning in September will all six original ladies, plus some special guests, cable TV channel Bravo said on Wednesday.


The show, which won a 2011 Critics Choice Award for best reality series, features former child stars and wealthy businesswomen embroiled in designer duds, conflict, and outright hostility.


"In Beverly Hills, luxury has its price," Bravo said, with the drama ruffling some seriously expensive feathers.


Camille Grammer will be focused on starting her new life after her divorce from "Frasier" star Kelsey Grammer, Bravo said.


She and the other five "housewives" will be joined for season two by new "friends:" businesswoman Dana Wilkey and former model Brandi Glanville. Glanville went through a messy divorce from Eddie Cibrian, the "CSI:Miami" actor who left her for country music singer LeAnn Rimes in 2009.


"If you put five girls or six girls in a room together, there's gonna be drama no matter what," Glanville said in a trailer released on Wednesday. "There's so much drama this season, and I'm kind-of in the middle of all of it."

Bethenny Frankel’s Skinnygirl Cocktail Sales Are Through The Roof; Announces Shapewear Line And Talk Show Premiere Date


RealityTea.com:
It looks like Bethenny Frankel should go ahead and treat herself to that $35,000 furniture. Reports show that the sales of her Skinnygirl cocktails have rocketed over the past year.


A market research firm estimates that Bethenny’s Skinnygirl drinks have had an increase in sales of almost 400%! Alcohol sales in general have seen an increase, but Skinnygirl’s sales have risen approximately 388%!


While Bethenny sold the rights to the drinks to Beam Global in a lucrative deal, she continues to work with them to promote the line and reportedly receives a cut of the profits. And promote them she does – and successfully, it looks like!


Back in 2011, she said that she created the cocktails after realizing how impossible it was to find a low-calorie drink. “I created a sub-category that never existed. I wasn’t an expert — I was just another person bothered by a 700-calorie margarita.”


Bethenny is laughing all the way to the bank as she continues to branch out her Skinnygirl brand to shapewear, cleanses, and who knows what’ll be next!? Roller skates? Budget furniture? $10 glass bowls for holding phone chargers.


In other Bethenny-is-taking-over-the-world news, she shared on Facebook yesterday that her new talk show is set to premiere on June 11th!


She shared: “I’m so excited to announce that my talk show premieres on June 11th on Fox! Want to be in my audience? Get tickets here.”


That’s just two months away, so start planning your L.A. vacays now.

Michaele Salahi Trumps Tareq—Judge Tosses His $50 Million Lawsuit


EOnline.com:
Michaele Salahi and Neal Schon have yet another reason to pack on their prodigious PDA—they can celebrate kicking the butt of her soon-to-be ex-husband in court today.


E! News has exclusively learned that a Virginia judge dismissed Tareq Salahi's $50 million claim against the former Real Housewives star and her Journey guitarist boyfriend.


Warren County (Va.) Circuit Court Judge Dennis Hupop ruled that the lawsuit, filed on Valentine's Day, is "not legally sufficient" to move forward.


In case you don't remember, this was the lawsuit where some colorful accusations were made, among them being that Schon sent Tareq pictures of his private parts. Tareq also claimed that the musician called him and said, "I'm f--king your wife!" (Alas, there's no mention of Michaele and Schon getting hot and heavy in the Journey "Resonate" video.)


But more than that, Tareq felt that filing for divorce from Michaele ruined their brand (because that's what's important here).


Tareq had asserted that TV shows pulled offers from the former White House gatecrashers after his wife ran off with Schon last fall. That very public cuckolding inflicted pain and suffering on Tareq, per the court docs.


So, in addition to lost earnings, that $50 million represented, in Tareq's eyes, damages for intentional infliction of emotional distress, conspiracy to defame, interference with a contract expectancy, unjust enrichment and defamation.


Clearly, the judge didn't see it that way.

Earthquake in Indonesia 8.9 Richter scale | India Withdrawn Tsunami Warning

India has withdrawn the tsunami warning issued after the massive earthquake measuring 8.6 on the Richter scale in Indonesia.However, Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono said there was little danger of a tsunami.

Earthquake hits two times in India, cities like Kolkata and Chennai at 4.25 pm, but there was no tsunami threat from these aftershocks.

The original earthquake struck Indonesia at 2.08 pm, and first reports said it measured 8.9 on the Richter scale. It spurred warnings of a possible tsunami. The quake was later downgraded to 8.6 magnitude.

A tsunami watch was issued for the whole Indian Ocean. The quake struck 308 miles (500 km) southwest of the city of Banda Aceh, on the northern tip of Indonesia's Sumatra island, at a depth of 20.5 miles (33 km), the U.S. Geological survey said.

The quake was felt as far away as the Thai capital, Bangkok, and in southern India, residents said. Hundreds of office workers in Bangalore left their buildings, workers there said. The tremors were felt in Chennai and several other cities on the eastern coast.

The quake was in roughly in the same area as a Dec 26, 2004, quake of 9.1 magnitude, which sent huge tsunami waves crashing into Sumatra, in that quake tsunami killed 230,000 people living around the Indian Ocean – 170,000 of them in Aceh.

Tal para cual

Nuestros dos grandes partidos, cuyos nombres no voy a decir para no darles publicidad, no van a pactar por una razón muy sencilla: porque son iguales. Quitando un par de elementos folclóricos e intrascendentes, y quizá un remoto maticillo cromático, solo tienen un genuino rasgo diferenciador: no ser el otro. Entre ambos constituyen un paradigma binario cuyos elementos (vacíos) se definen exclusivamente por oposición. Por eso en nuestro Parlamento no hay un partido en el gobierno y un partido en la oposición, sino dos partidos en la oposición (uno de los cuales da la casualidad de que además gobierna). Que el partido A esté aquí no significa nada: solo que el partido B está allí. Y al revés. Si la diferencia entre ambos no fuera solo posicional, sino real, podrían llegar a un acuerdo y seguir siendo cada uno, dentro de ese acuerdo, diferente. Pero como son iguales no podrán pactar nunca: si lo hicieran perderían el único rasgo genuino que tienen y entonces pasarían a no ser nada. Es decir, dejarían de facturar.

En ochenta libros

Estoy volviendo a escuchar ahora, en los podcasts, aquel maravilloso programa que emitió Radio Nacional hace cuatro veranos: La vuelta al mundo en 80 libros. Qué cosa más bonita. Hacía tiempo que no se hacía una celebración de la lectura, de la literatura, así. Cada uno de los veinticinco audios es una joyita, hecho con profesionalidad y con amor; y con la virtud añadida (e imprescindible) de la ligereza. Una recomendación encendidísima.

El tiempo en Nuuk

En mi columna de gadgets climáticos le he abierto una ventanita a Nuuk, Groenlandia, que he colocado debajo de las tres ciudades españolas que sigo y encima de Río de Janeiro. Hace un frío que pela allí, y no es de día nunca (al menos, por estos meses). Mola Nuuk.



El zumo del cansancio

La diferencia entre Cristo y yo es que él resucita hoy pero yo sigo en la cruz. Eso sí: gozando. He descubierto (¡tarde!) los gozos del esfuerzo sostenido. Semana Santa de estar encerrado, en la tarea, y luego darme un paseíto por los arrabales, con el día ya tan destartalado como yo. Ese naranja crepuscular como el sudor de la jornada: el zumo del cansancio. Es un buen negocio el esfuerzo. Al final se encuentra un bienestar: una droga segregada por uno mismo y que sienta bien. No solo físicamente, sino también moralmente: hemos hecho lo que teníamos que hacer, hemos cumplido. Y terminamos en la cama cansados por el trabajo y no por la indolencia, que agota más. Señores: acaba de abrirse en Andalucía una sucursal de Alemania, y soy yo.

Kim Richards Talks Recovery, Returning for RHOBH Season 3: “I Have to Move Forward”


I think it's pretty obvious to anyone that Kim Richards keeps coming back because needs the money. No matter what she says, who would keep embarrassing themselves on TV as much as Kim has for any other reason?
Whether or not Kim Richards would – or should – return for Season 3 of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills has been a hot topic of conversation ever since the former child star literally melted down in front of the cameras at the end of Season 2, then checked into rehab shortly afterward for issues with alcohol. But looking clear-eyed and sounding razor-sharp, Kim joined her sister, Kyle Richards, as well as castmates Adrienne Maloof, Lisa Vanderpump and Taylor Armstrong on the blue carpet at Bravo’s Upfronts presentation on April 4 – a sure signal she’s onboard for the new season. Speaking exclusively with Wetpaint Entertainment, she shared her regrets about the past… and her hopes for the next chapter.


Wetpaint Entertainment: What are you looking forward to most about the new season?


Kim: (laughing) I’m coming back for another season? Really? No, in all seriousness, everyone saw me take a huge spiral downward last year. Now, I’m really excited for people to see me work my way back up. I want everyone to see that.


How has the reaction been since you came forward with your addiction struggles?
Oh, god, it’s been amazing. People will say things to me like, ‘You’ve saved my son’s life,’ or ‘You’ve helped me so much.’ You know, before, I used to have a really hard time admitting I was an alcoholic. But I’m not ashamed or embarrassed any more. It’s made me a much stronger person and, hopefully, put me in a place where I can help other people.


What’s the message you want to get across to your fans and to others suffering from addiction?
It’s this: If I can do it, under THESE circumstances – having it all filmed, having everyone know every little detail about everything – then you can do it. It CAN be done.


What are your biggest regrets about last season?


My children have been greatly affected by this. I think they wish it could have all been slipped under the radar…


But you know, this isn’t my first time in recovery. And [during Season 2] I knew what I was doing wasn’t right. For me, it’s like: Sip one: I need to leave, Sip five: I’m in trouble. But I made the choice to go to work and to let the cameras in and people saw what they saw. Of course I would go back and change that if I could. But I can’t change the past, so I have to move forward.


What will be seeing this season?


People are going to see how hard I’m working. I’m not going to be sitting around with these girls sipping cocktails and just hanging out. I’m going to be very into AA and spending time with the people who have been supporting me.


Do you feel ready?


I do. I’m ready!

Dentro del tiempo

La cuestión es no sentir el roce del tiempo, sino estar dentro de él: no entre sus dientes, sino en su boca; no troceado, troceándose, sino tragado entero. El movimiento –la muerte– se nota por comparación: absorto en él, somos eternos. Salir del tiempo entrando de lleno en él. De lleno: sin dejar fuera nada que roce con lo que no es tiempo.

Teresa Giudice: Reality TV Spoiled My Friendships And Ruined Our Family


No surprise here. I mean it's never Teresa's fault for anything:
Teresa Giudice claims that she’s unwittingly traded friendship and family for fame as one of the cast members of the Bravo hit, The Real Housewives of New Jersey.


Teresa, 39, exclusively tells Star magazine she’s had falling-outs with castmates Caroline Manzo and Jacqueline Laurita, as well as her brother Joey Gorga, since the show’s popularity made her a full-fledged reality star.


“My Housewives experience has completely changed,” the current Celebrity Apprentice hopeful tells Star. “Jacqueline and I had a wonderful relationship for about 10 years. We were great friends, but not anymore. It’s so sad. We actually went through a ‘friends divorce,’ which is so hard.


“Then, Jacqueline basically attacked me on the show about a magazine article that said I was going to jail. She was upset that she hadn’t heard it directly from me, but I wasn’t going to jail ... the whole thing was so ridiculous.”


Teresa tells Star exclusively that Caroline and Jacqueline ”take everything that is small, and turn it into something serious.”


But the bad blood has hit close to home as well, as Teresa says her sister-in-law Melissa Gorga getting a spot on the show behind her back really shook up the family tree.


“I felt deceived,” she tells Star, adding the friction is also with her own brother Joey, Melissa’s husband.


“I haven’t spoken to my brother since before Christmas,” she says. “We haven’t gone this long without talking in my whole life! I’d have to say that reality TV ruined our family, and it’s a disgrace.”

Sheree Whitfield Fired From RHOA?!?, Bob Whitfield Dating Atlanta Blogger (And Rival)???


If this news is true (damn, who knew about the incredible long line of haters Sheree has in the Atlanta area?) than I guess all that drama Sheree tried to create for herself this season just didn't work:
The streets are buzzing here in Atlanta and I’m not answering my phone no more today with questions swirling around the sudden firing of Sheree Whitfield from the Real Housewives of Atlanta(allegedly)! I guess people are calling me because I have personal relationships with some of the ladies. Sheree Whitfield was NOT one of them, unfortunately lol. Lawd, now wait a minute, I joke about She By Sheree now and then but this is shocking news even to me! I can not believe this and I need to find me a bag of white cheddar popcorn and a pepsi to calm my nerves!


Here’s the Tea! Sources are saying that she was flown out to New York City and thats when Bravo gave her the news that they will not be re-newing her contract on The Real Housewives of Atlanta. I guess her going to court with Bob begging for money, the empty dirt pile at Chateau Sheree and more was NOT enough to make for a good story line. It was like every move she made on the show backfired on her.This is still very sketchy news but as more develops, I will let you guys know! I feel sorry for my fellow Clevelander if this is true! I remember a few months back a casting director contacted me asking me if I was interested, umm no! My nerves too bad and I like going in on the ladies as I watch and tweet lol! I don’t want to be the one people are talking about,hell nawl! I also heard that there is one more that will be let go as well. I wonder will my girl Marlo Hampton(cast member to the show) get offered a permanent spot now? How do you feel about this news?

Taylor Armstrong Says Bitter Brandi Glanville Is "Dying To Be A Permanent Cast Member On Our Show"



MSNBC.com:
If you thought the women of "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" saved all of their drama for the show, think again. While tensions between Taylor Armstrong and Brandi Glanville were on the rise during the recent reunion show, they've since spilled over to another show and even Twitter.


It all began at the reunion, when Glanville slammed Armstrong over her decision to write a book "a hot minute" after husband Russell Armstrong committed suicide. On Tuesday night's episode of "Watch What Happens Live," Armstrong revealed why she thinks Glanville "went there."


"Because Brandi's dying to be a permanent cast member on our show," she told host Andy Cohen. "So she thinks by saying explosive things, she's going to get the job."


But if Armstrong thought Glanville's earlier comment was an attention-getting low-blow, it was nothing compared to what she had to say on Twitter after hearing Armstrong's reaction.


"I'm not 'dying' to do ANYTHING!! But let's not forget someone did die," Glanville wrote. "P.S My mind can go alllllllllllll day!"


Yikes.


But there's still hope the feud could come to an end someday, at least if Glanville has anything to say about it.


"I always makeup up with everyone," she told one Twitter follower. "Agree life is too short."

Año petrarquista

El año cuyo 6 de abril cae en Viernes Santo debería ser considerado año petrarquista. El 6 de abril de 1327, Viernes Santo, Francesco Petrarca cuenta que vio por vez primera, en la iglesa de Santa Clara de Aviñón, a la mujer a la que llamó Laura. "Si este era su nombre", escribe Ángel Crespo, "es algo que no podemos saber. Sí es seguro, en cambio, que la inspiradora del Cancionero no es un ente de ficción". A aquel día Petrarca le dedica su soneto III:
Fue el día en que del sol palidecieron
los rayos, de su autor compadecido,
cuando, hallándome yo desprevenido,
vuestros ojos, señora, me prendieron.

En tal tiempo, los míos no entendieron
defenderse de Amor: que protegido
me juzgaba; y mi pena y mi gemido
principio en el común dolor tuvieron.

Amor me halló del todo desarmado
y abierto al corazón encontró el paso
de mis ojos, del llanto puerta y barco,

pero, a mi parecer, no quedó honrado
hiriéndome la flecha en aquel caso
y a vos, armada, no mostrando el arco.
Según las notas de Crespo al pie de su traducción: Cristo es el autor del sol, y este está compadecido por su muerte en Viernes Santo; el común dolor es el de los cristianos en este día; barco está en su acepción de "barranco profundo". La otra traducción que tengo es la de Jacobo Cortines, que copio después del original:
Era il giorno ch'al sol si scoloraro
per la pietà del suo factore i rai,
quando i' fui preso, et non me ne guardai,
ché i be' vostr'occhi, donna, mi legaro.

Tempo non me parea da far riparo
contra colpi d'Amor: però m'andai
secur, senza sospetto; onde i miei guai
nel commune dolor s'incominciaro.

Trovommi Amor del tutto disarmato
et aperta la via per gli occhi al core,
che di lagrime son fatti uscio et varco:

però al mio parer non li fu honore
ferir me de saetta in quello stato,
e voi armata non mostrar pur l'arco.


* * *

Era el día en que al sol se le nublaron
por la piedad de su hacedor los rayos,
cuando fui prisionero sin guardarme,
pues me ataron, señora, vuestros ojos.

No creí que fuera tiempo de reparos
contra golpes de Amor, por ello andaba
seguro y sin sospecha; así mis penas
en el dolor común se originaron.

Hallóme Amor del todo desarmado,
con vía libre al pecho por los ojos,
que de llorar se han vuelto puerta y paso;

pero, a mi parecer, no puede honrarle
herirme en ese estado con el dardo,
y a vos armada el arco ni mostraros.
El Viernes Santo de aquel año en realidad resulta que cayó en 10. Pero nos quedamos con la fecha petrarquista, con la falsa.

USmagazine.com:
Start spreading the news!


Over half a year since Cindy Barshop, Alex McCord, Jill Zarin and Kelly Bensimon were fired from Real Housewives of New York, their replacements were officially announced on Wednesday night.


During a Watch What Happens: Live All-Star party in Manhattan, Bravo's Andy Cohen introduced the new ladies onstage: Aviva Drescher, Carole Radziwill and Heather Thomson. All three women had been rumored as new Housewives shortly after the September 2011 ouster of Barshop, McCord, Zarin and Bensimon.


The new trio will join surviving cast members LuAnn de Lesseps, Ramona Singer and Sonja Morgan.


Carole Radziwill has connections to @merican royalty. She's the widow of the late Prince Anthony Radziwill, the only son of Lee Radziwill, younger sister to the late Jackie Kennedy Onassis. She is also a former ABC News producer and a writer for Glamour.


Aviva Drescher is married to prominent banked Reid Drescher, with whom she has three kids. A cousin of The Nanny's Fran Drescher, Aviva is also an amputee, whose left foot and ankle were amputated in a grisly barn accident when she was just six years old


With a past as an A-list celebrity stylist, Heather Thomsen is the fashion designer behind shapewear line Yummie Tummie. She has two children.
