40 GODINICA INTERNETA!!! :)


Semjuel Morze je 1844. godine učinio do tada nešto nezamislivo - telegrafskim aparatom, koga je prethodno izumeo i izradio, poslao je kratku poruku od Baltimora do Vašingtona koristeći svoju telegrafsku spravu i mrežu kablova dugu 60 kilometara razapetu između dva američka grada. U kratkoj poruci poslata je rečenica iz Biblije: „Šta to beše Božje delo?". 125 godina kasnije, tačnije 29. oktobra 1969. godine, profesor Leonard Klajnrok sa američkog univerziteta Los Anđeles razmišljao je šta da pošalje kao prvu i istorijsku rečenicu u mreži koju su činila dva računara na dva američka fakulteta. "U kancelariji smo se nalazili samo programer i ja. Nismo imali kameru ili bilo šta čime bismo zabeležili taj istorijski trenutak. Nismo pripremili i osmislili neku zvučnu rečenicu poput ostalih. Nismo bili toliko pametni", izjavio je za nemački državni radio "Dojče vele" sada 75-godišnji profesor, koji je prošle godine nagrađen američkom Nacionalnom medaljom za nauku upravo za otkriće koje predstavlja temelj interneta. Eksperiment se nije odvijao kako je bilo zamišljeno. Klajnrok u početku nije uspeo da poveže računar sa Kalifornijskog univerziteta sa onim na univerzitetu Stenford u Severnoj Karolini. Prva veza između dva računara prekinuta je posle samo dve sekunde. Klajnrok je uspeo da pošalje tek dva slova - "lo". Uređaj koji je bio zadužen za prenos prve poruke bio je veličine frižidera. Nije završio na otpadu, već se još uvek nalazi u maloj sobi na Kalifornijskom univerzitetu kao svedok vremena. Klajnrok kaže da današnji i najobičniji mobilni uređaji imaju više snage od tog uređaja."Tako je ružan, a ujedno tako lep. On je moj dragi prijatelj. Uradio je ono što se od njega očekivalo. Kasnije su uređaji napredovali da bismo imali ono što danas zovemo - internet", rekao je Klajnrok. On ističe da je svestan da je internet izrodio i neke neželjene pojave poput krađe podataka ili dečje pornografije, ali je uveren da njegove pozitivne strane nadmašuju one loše. "Ono što me najviše brine je činjenica da smo neke od tih stvari mogli da sprečimo", izjavio je Klajnrok za nemački radio.
Šta je sve prethodilo nastanku interneta kakav danas poznajemo: - 1969. - Dva računara sa dva odseka Kalifornijskog univerziteta povezana su u mrežu ARPAnet, predhodnicu interneta - 1971. - Rek Tomlinson razvija elektronsku poštu za ARPAnet. Upravo je on tvorac znaka @. Popularnog "majmuna" osmislio je kako bi u adresi elektronske pošte razdvojio ime korisnika od imena računara. - 1973. - Mreža povezanih računara seli se preko Antlantika. Norveška je postala deo ARPAneta. Cilj je bio razmena podataka o mogućim potresima i nuklearnim eksplozijama sa SAD. Posle Norveške, u mrežu ulazi Londonski univerzitet. - 1978. - Geri Tuerk šalje prvi "spam" (masovno distribuirana poruka koju niste želeli) u mreži ARPAnet. - 1984. - Broj umreženih računara prelazi 1.000. Japan stvara vlastitu mrežu Junet, Velika Britanija razvija mrežu Janet, a Sovjetski Savez Usenet. - 1985. - Stvoren je domen .com. Najstarija stranica sa tim domenom glasila je i još uvek glasi: symbolics.com. - 1989. - U Evropskoj laboratoriji za praktičnu fiziku (CERN) rađa se ideja o internetu kakav danas poznajemo - razmena celih dokumenata zajedno sa slikama pri čemu delovi dokumenta postaju linkovi. Nastaje format podataka HTML. - 1990. Pojavljuje se prvi internetski pretraživač nazvan Arćie zahvaljujuć kanadskom studentu Alenu Emtažu. - 1991. Nastaje prva internetska stranica, doduše siromašnog sadržaja. - 1996. Leri Pejdž i Sergej Brin, studenti sa Univerziteta Stenford, počinju da rade na pretraživaču koji prikazuje stranice prema njihovoj popularnosti i relevantnosti. Dve godine kasnije nastaje Google

Three Types of Simile

Here's something I wrote while deeply bored some time ago. As you can imagine, I'm still desperately bored - too bored even to blog propely, though I've started posting again over at CTS. I had a volume of Hardy and a cup of tea to hand when I wrote it.

The first type of simile simply tries to invoke some genuine quality of a real object through reference to another object. The relevant cliché is “as hot as an oven”. With these “concrete” similes, the danger for the writer is that cliché is difficult to avoid; exaggeration also creeps up on you. But the possibility is always there for a simple simile of this type to contain other, hidden meanings or connotations. Take this example from Thomas Hardy’s poem ‘The Clock Winder’: “It is as dark as a cave”. Nothing too complicated there, the image is clear, the reference, obvious. But think for a while on the nature of caves. Claustrophobic, tapering into ancient rocks, the home of unknown streams, stalactites and stalagmites, the origins of human civilisation, hidden realms. The darkness of the very ordinary night Hardy is explaining now takes on a more psychological aspect. The depth of similes such as these is, of course, entirely up to the writer. But writers and students should be encouraged to think very carefully about the objects they choose to place into their similes.

The second type does the same thing, but invokes non-existent objects that people are nonetheless familiar with. For example: “Quick feet as light/As the feet of a sprite” from the poem ‘Signs and Tokens’. It is easy to see the reference, even though there are (as far as we know) no such things as sprites. The word “sprite” itself has become almost a metaphor for quickness and lightness. With this kind of simile a writer can convey some sense of numinosity or give an ethereal atmosphere to a scene or idea. A clichéd example of this type would be something like, “She looked like an angel”. A better one would be this, from Hardy’s poem ‘Apostrophe to an Old Psalm Tune’, “..sweet as angels’ laughters”.

The third type of simile intends to reference the object or quality only vaguely or slightly to anything, and is instead a satire, or a play with language for its own sake. This is exceptionally difficult to write appropriately. Most usually it is done to make the reader question the writing process and think about the difficulty of communication. It is mainly associated with modernist and post-modernist writing. An example would be “The years were like the cries of children”, in which a sense of fear is invoked, but otherwise the similarities are slight or non-existent.

These types of simile can also be adapted, extended or cut. Often a writer will slide the usual expressions into “hot like an oven” or “oven-hot” or “with the heat of an oven” or some other phrase. To avoid cliché and extend the image – though this has to be done with caution – a writer might take a simile like “she looked like an angel” and change it to “she looked like an angel, full of its sadness for humankind” – the idea being to give the object of reference more detail in order to make the image more complex. In the following quotation Hardy doubles his simile to give it more shades of meaning:
From tides the lofty coastlands screen
Come smitings like the slam of doors
Or hammerings on hollow floors

(from ‘The Wind’s Prophecy’)

Here's an excerpt from an interview about the game:
On her fave songs on Disney Sing It: Pop Hits game: “One of my best friends is Demi Lovato, so obviously hers are some of my favorites. It’s really cool because there’s a lot of diversity in the tracks. You’ve got Coldplay, OneRepublic, Jesse McCartney, Taylor Swift, Colbie Caillat and then of course theres The Jonas Brothers, Hannah Montana songs, Demi, and Miley songs. It’s cool because there’s a range. It’s not like you’re getting this game full of Disney songs or full of songs that you don’t know. There are a lot of songs on there that I listen to myself and I wouldn’t consider myself a ‘young kid.’ I love all of those groups and singers.”

Nicole Kidman apoya a mujeres maltratadas



Estuvo en el Congreso USA.

Para dar a conocer cifras escalofriantes de mujeres maltratadas, o que sufren violencia de género.
Es bueno que los famosos y admirados, se involucren en temas para concienciar a la gente.
Ellos salen beneficiados con la publicidad positiva, y de paso la gente toma más en cuenta las denuncias.

"La violencia contra las mujeres y las niñas es quizá una de las más expandidas violaciones a los derechos humanos en el mundo. No tiene fronteras, ni raza, ni clase", afirmó la embajadora de buena voluntad para el Fondo de Desarrollo de las Naciones Unidas para la mujer (UNIFEM), ante una Subcomisión de Asuntos Exteriores de la Cámara de Representantes.

Mi santo queridas,queridos.

Lo que no se, es si ambos actores tomaran la alternativa xD
Y es que Sevilla está huerfanita desde que Curro Romero se cortó la coleta.
Por cierto Tom Cruise se parece un montón a Francisco Rivera Ordoñez, o al revés.
Pero Francisco en más joven, y con más pelo.

Podrían ser hermanitos y todo.
Que hombres más bellos.
Desde que vi "Top Gun", enamorada hallome de Tom Cruise, por raro que parezca, no me importan sus rarezas.

Salma Hayek y Jessica Biel al borde de un ataque




Ambas actrices ensayan la versión para Broadway, de "Mujeres al borde de un ataque de nervios", de Pedro Almodóvar.

Han pasado la tira de años, desde que se comentó que Jane Fonda, tenía interés en protagonizar este film versión USA.
Debió ser por el año 88 u 89 , después del revuelo causado por Almodóvar en los Oscar, que entonces no ganó.
Pero con "Mujeres... " fue su comienzo en la Meca del cine.


La música de «Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown» es de David Yazbek y el autor del libreto Jeffrey Lane, mientras que la dirección está a cargo de Bartlett Sher, ganador de un Tony el pasado año por South Pacific. Está no será la única aventura de la película de Almodóvar al otro lado del charco. La cadena estadounidense Fox anunció hace unos meses que adaptará «Mujeres al borde de un ataque de nervios» para una serie de televisión.

Zena u buducnosti-mala,debela i zdrava???


Žene će u budućnosti postajati sve niže, deblje i zdravije sudeći po studiji koja se bavila istraživanjem budućnosti ljudske rase.

Žene će u budućnosti takođe razviti zdravije i otpornije srce i posedovaće niže nivoe holesterola, dok će menopauza počinjati znatno kasnije nego što je to slučaj danas. Ovakva predviđanja rezultat su studije za koju istraživači kažu da je bazirana na najozbiljnijim dokazima koji pokazuju put kojim će ljudska rasa u budućnosti krenuti. Brojni biolozi do sada su tvrdili da su napredak u medicini i povećan životni standard glavni razlozi koji su doveli do nešto sporijeg procesa evolucije kod ljudske rase. Bez konstantne borbe za opstanak prirodna selekcija više nije glavni uzrok naše evolucije i napretka. Međutim, biolog Stiven Sterns sa univerziteta Jejl tvrdi da je pronašao dokaze koji pokazuju da nasledni faktori kao što su visina i težina i dalje određuju koliko će žena imati dece i koliko će ona biti otporna na bolesti. Veći broj dece povećava šanse da će povoljne karakteristike koje pomažu opstanak biti prenete i na sledeću generaciju. Sternsov tim ispitao je medicinske kartone 2.238 žena srednje dobi koje su prošle kroz menopauzu, nakon čega su proverili u kojoj meri su njihova težina, visina, krvni pritisak i brojni drugi faktori povezani sa brojem dece koje su imale. Niže, i nešto teže, žene u proseku su imale više porođaja od viših i mršavijih žena. Žene sa nižim krvnim pritiskom i holesterolom takođe su imale brojniju porodicu – što je bio slučaj i sa ženama koje su svoje prvo dete dobile u mlađem dobu. Pozitivni faktori prenešeni su na njihove kćerke, koje su zauzvrat takođe zasnovale veće porodice. Ako bi se ovaj trend nastavio, za deset generacija, kako su istraživači izračunali, žena će u 2409. godini biti 2 centimetra niža i 1 kilogram teža u odnosu na današnji prosek. Svoje prvo dete dobiće 5 meseci ranije, nego što bi to bio slučaj u sadašnjosti, a u menopauzu će ući sa 10 meseci zakašnjenja nego današnje žene. „Veoma je interesantno da su određeni biološki i evolucijski faktori i dalje osetni ispod današnjih aktuelnih kulturoloških trendova“, zaključio je Sterns.

Sienna Miller and NY newspaper


Sienna Miller has won an apology from a top New York newspaper - after they added to her list of famous ex-boyfriends.
The New York Times linked 'Serial Miller' to Sean Coombes and the late Heath Ledger, both of whom were simply friends.
Sienna has a reputation for enjoying high-profile relationships and has previously dated Jude Law, Rhys Ifans and Balthazar But the paper added to her well-documented relationship history.
It later apologised: 'An article... about Sienna Miller misstates the nature of the relationships that she had with Heath Ledger and Sean Combs. She was friends with both of them; she did not have romantic flings with either of them.'
The 27-year-old is set to take to the New York stage alongside Jonny Lee Miller in After Miss Julie.

She`s gotta style! HOW?



They can tie a scarf, knot a belt, size up a boot heel, and kick the stuffing out of a pinstriped suit. They know what jeans wash is cool and what cocktail is hot. But above all, they’re thoughtful. About dressing. About behavior. About attracting the right kind of attention at just the right time. Which is what separates the truly stylish from the merely fashionable. Here, a practical guide to polishing up your look and burnishing your image this fall.
1. How to Order a DrinkIn our 20s, we thought that ordering a Jameson on the rocks made us look badass and that we couldn’t go wrong with a nice glass of house Chardonnay. Ah, youth. On the rare occasion now that we give a damn what someone thinks, we have one inscrutable go-to drink: vodka soda with a twist. It’s not pink, it’s not seasonal—in fact, you could call it the Drink Without Qualities.
2. How to Maintain Clothes Like a ProSnip out hanger loops in new tops and dresses, or they will poke out when you wear them. They exist for the store’s convenience, not yours.
3. How to Dress it DownScale back the statement necklace for day by going with silver instead of gold and pairing it with a thin, silky T-shirt. 4. Black is the new dark wash.But get it in a true blue-jeans cut—five-pocket, straight leg, starting just below the waist. The Levi’s Eco style has skinny, tapered legs—not a tight, leggings-like fit—that we especially love.
5. How to Keep Stretch Jeans SnugStretch jeans need a little heat to restore their fit, but be sure to grab them out of the hot dryer the moment they’re no longer damp— you’ll forestall the slow, inevitable death of the elastic in the fabric.
6. How to Talk About Sports
You are not required to like sports. You are not even required to pretend to like sports. But utter cluelessness is beneath you. A few guidelines:
Familiarize yourself with the approximate beginning and end of the pro sports seasons. Not having an opinion about the Lakers’ record is fine; not knowing that the season is over is lame.The same goes for time periods: Baseball has nine innings; football and basketball have four quarters; hockey has three periods; soccer has two halves.Upsets are the most exciting thing about sports. Watch highlights of the most buzzed-about games on YouTube so you can join in the national conversation. (Just check out when the U.S. soccer team beat Spain in this year’s Confederations Cup.)
7. Weekend Wear
First, the rules. No dresses. No skirts. No black in the country. And nothing dangling from your neck except a cashmere scarf or a subversive-style chain necklace.Here, what to wear on weekend days:
In the city: Slim black pants, ballet slippers or platform booties, thin sweater or T-shirt, cashmere jacket and scarf.In the country: Slouchy jeans, motorcycle boots or Wellies, waffle-knit cashmere sweater, chunky scarf, peacoat.
8. How to Flirt
Wear red. Women who dress in red are seen by men as sexier than those who wear white, green, blue, or gray, according to a University of Rochester study. Not convinced? Ladies in red are 56 percent more likely to get asked out on a date than someone wearing blue.Flash your…wrists. The most demure of body parts isn’t so innocent after all. “Their glands emit pheromones, so we become aroused on an unconscious level by seeing the wrists,” says Martin Lloyd-Elliot, a psychotherapist and author of The Secrets of Sexual Body Language (Ulysses Press).Dim the lights. Candlelight is flattering in more ways than we realize. A University of Chicago study found that men perceived women with dilated pupils to be more attractive.Stand tall. “We pay attention to someone who’s higher up,” says psychologist Beverly B. Palmer. Less obvious: Consider where you’re pointing your toes. You can tell if a person really likes you if their toes point toward you.

9. Make Your Clothes LastThe less frequently you wash clothes, the longer they’re going to last, according to Chris Paulocik, conservator for the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute in New York City. “Do what women in Europe do with their finest garments: The day after you wear them, air them out outside, away from direct sunlight, which can fade clothes, but somewhere air can circulate through them. Unless they’re stained, this is often enough to freshen the fabric.”
10. How to Walk in PlatformsWe love everything about this season’s platform heels—except the prospect of fracturing an ankle. Shoe designer Edmundo Castillo explains the secret to walking tall: “Platforms can be difficult because they don’t flex in front. A tight fit helps, so buy Foot Petals or an insole for heels. And as with any high shoes, always step on the ball of the foot and roll to the toe.”
11. How to Wear a Belt Right NowRun to the men’s department and get yourself a medium-width brown leather belt with a gold buckle. Think of it as a layering tool, not something to thread through loops. And make sure it’s long—and pliable—enough to wrap or knot around dresses (yes, dresses), jackets, and coats.
12. How to Dress For TravelThree high flyers reveal what they wear to look stylish on an airplane:
Stefani Greenfield, Co-founder of SCOOP: My favorite look is a Rag&Bone fitted stretch blazer, a J.Crew long-sleeved cashmere T-shirt, slim stretch pants by Curations Never Looked So Good, a big scarf that doubles as a shawl, and ballet flats.Rebekah McCabe, Senior Vice President of P.R. for Chanel: I wear boyfriend jeans and ballet flats, then change into heels and add a little black tweed jacket when I land.Ji Baek, Founder of Rescue Beauty: My go-to outfit is a long shirt in a wrinkle-proof fabric, American Apparel leggings, and Bottega Veneta open-toe wedge shoes—all in black. I pack cashmere socks for the plane.
13. How to Tie a ScarfYou’ve got Edith Piaf on the iPod and a one-by-six-foot panel of thin cashmere dangling from your neck. What now? We’ll let Louis Vuitton PR director Iana dos Reis Nunes take it from here with this simple un-deux-trois demo.
Drape: To start, I place the scarf at the back of my neck, so the ends fall forward.Wrap: I do two snug turns of the scarf around my neck, leaving both ends hanging in front by my shoulders again.Knot: To finish, I loop the ends in a half knot under my neck so they hang down like a necktie. The idea is to have something close to the throat, to bring the focus to the face.
14. The Ultimate Evening ShoeThis slingback by Brian Atwood has the requisite platform sole and some glitter at the toe. But what makes it unusual is that it’s suede, a material usually reserved for day.
15. How to Make Your Shoes LastTake new shoes to the cobbler, and ask for a thin rubber half sole and rubber taps at the toes. The former come in black, beige, and even red for those Louboutins, and the latter help prevent scuffing.
16. Don’t Be a Fashion Victim
Take it one trend at a time. Studs and chains? That’s it for the hardware. A bright neon dress? Keep the shoes muted.Go ahead and mix things up—high end, low end, inherited or vintage—to foil a copycat uniform a head-to-toe runway look.Don’t trot out all your jewels at once. Pick a big, showy necklace or a dramatic oversize cuff. But don’t wear both.Test-drive everything. If you can’t walk in the five-inch-high gladiator platforms, don’t buy the five-inch-high gladiator platforms.
17. How to Go Solo
At a bar: Sit at a table if you aren’t looking for conversation. Sit on a stool near the bartender if you are. Flipping through a magazine is fine; listening to your iPod is lame; talking on your cell phone is out of the question. Tip well, just on principle.At a restaurant: If you aren’t sure a restaurant is friendly to single diners, try making a reservation; if they are condescending on the phone, it will be worse in person. Eat at the bar whenever it’s an option— there’s always plenty to observe. (Sushi bars are especially welcoming.) And, most importantly, don’t be self-conscious. Does your heart swell with pity when you see a woman dining alone? We didn’t think so.At a party: Arrive at least 30 minutes late so you can blend in. If you don’t see a group you can approach, head to the ladies’ room (where women inevitably chat in front of the mirror) or the bar area (where you can always point to someone’s empty glass and ask, “How was that?”). Once you’ve struck up a conversation, consider following your new friend back to her group if she seems amenable.
18. How to Dress After DarkThe rules are unwritten, the boundaries fuzzy. Roopal Patel, women’s fashion accessory editor for Neiman Marcus and Bergdorf Goodman, sets us straight on what to wear for a big night on the town:
Club/concert: If you’re going out dancing or to a concert, then your outfit should be fun. Think of the Balmain disco influence: a crystal-embroidered or sequined T-shirt or tank, leather leggings, and multibuckle boots.Dressy dinner: A more sophisticated look is needed here. A soft, draped dress in crushed velvet—such as those from Balenciaga, Prada, and Calvin Klein—would be perfect. Add a stack of mixed-metal bangles, and instead of classic stilettos or evening sandals, wear suede or leather booties, like those by Elizabeth and James.Black tie: Short or long, the one-shoulder dress is flattering on almost everyone. Keep it light and diaphanous or buy one that’s bejeweled. I love Naeem Khan’s take on the Indian sari, in topaz or gray. Pare back your accessories to crystal bangles and embellished evening shoes, such as those from Giuseppe Zanotti.
19. How to Order Wine
Do a quick survey to see if the majority wants red or white. If everyone thinks it’s just fine to drink red with swordfish, then it is.Take the price of the most expensive entrée on the menu and add half. (That swordfish is $30? Shoot for a $45 bottle.)Look for a two-year-old white or a three-year-old red.If you’re left with more than one choice within those parameters, choose the least common varietal. Spanish Albariños, Aglianicos from Italy, and Chilean Malbecs are all good options.If all else fails, ask the sommelier to suggest a bottle.
20. How to Cheek KissLet’s settle this, shall we? Start on her right (we don’t know why that’s more common; it just is). Place three fingers of your right hand where her left shoulder meets her arm for balance. Your cheek lightly touches her cheek; your lips do not. Purse your lips, but don’t make a smacking sound. Only repeat on the left if you are in Europe or with fashion types.
21. “Never buy a dress that’s really too tight for you. But if you do…never go to a party without safety pins.” —Victoria Beckham
22. How to Choose an Evening BagYes, you can squeeze in a BlackBerry, a compact, a lipstick, and even some Tic Tacs—and that’s why this Jimmy Choo black cylinder is our favorite evening bag. Plus, it’s got a clutchable shape (like a Tootsie Roll), a smooth satin exterior, and a detachable top handle.
23. How to Pick a New Polish
Look to moody grays, opaque nudes, and striking purples this fall–because the best shades of the season are unexpected (but not so much so that they are shocking)
24. Never respond to a compliment with anything self-deprecating. It’s a rejection of the other person’s goodwill.
25. Always face forward when making your way through a row of seats.

Jake i jace


Australijski antropolog Peter Mekalister je, na osnovu dugogodišnjeg istraživanja, došao do zaključka da su daleki preci savremenog čoveka bili mnogo snažniji od njega, ilustrujući to, između ostalog, i tvrdnjom da bi žene neandertalca na "obaranju ruku" dobile mišićavog Arnolda Švarcenegera iz najboljih dana.

Mekalister je, takođe, naveo da bi stari Aboridžini, u modernoj sportskoj opremi, lako pretrčali svetskog rekordera u atletici Useina Bolta i da pripadnici plemena Tutsi u Ruandi, u svojim versko-igračkim ritualima obaraju svetski rekord u skoku uvis (245 centimetara). "Današnji čovek je fizički slabiji od svih svojih predaka: Oni bi ga ubedljivo pobeđivali u mnogim atletskim disciplinama, pre svega u trčanju i skokovima", istakao je. Odgovor zašto je to tako, australijski naučik sažima u jednu jedinu rečenicu: zato što se savremeni čovek sve manje bavi fizičkim aktivnostima, koje su njegove pretke činile jačim, izdržljivijim, okretnijim, pa i zdravijim. Posebno se baveći prošlošću australijskih Aboridžina, pri čemu je pregledao i njihove fosilne ostatke od pre 20.000 godina, Mekalister je došao do uverenja da su, trčeći bosi po mekom terenu, dostizali brzinu od najmanje 37 kilometara na sat. Premera radi: Bolt bi sa svojim rekodom na 100 metara mogao da "dogura" do 42 kilometra na sat. Naravno, aktuelni svetski rekoder je trčao na tvrdoj podlozi i u specijalnim sprintericama. Mekalister smatra da bi Aboridžini, opremljeni kao Bolt, jurili najmanje 45 kilometara za sat. Iznoseći saznanja iz proučavanja afričkog plema Tutsi, Makalister se pozvao na saznanja o njima koja je, još 1905. godine, stekao jedan nemački antropolog. Nemac je, naime, utvrdio da mladi Tutsi u svojim plesovima dokazivanja "lete" iznad 2,5 metra, što je za sedam santimetara više od savremenog svetskog rekorda, koji drži Kubanac Havijer Sotomajor. "Da bi bili primljeni u svet odraslih, i da bi bili smatrani muškarcima, mladi Tutsi su morali da preskoče svoju visinu", zapisao je nemački antropolog, podsećajući da ih je priprema za to pravila rekorderima u skoku uvis što, inače, nikada zvanično nisu postali. Mekalister je izneo i procenu da bi žene nandertalaca, baveći se danas bodi-bildingom dostigle 90 odsto mišićne mase guvrnera Kalifornije, ranije junaka popularnih filmova o snagatorima. Njihova fizionomija, pre svega niža ramena, bi im omogućila da Švarcenegera dobiju na "obaranju ruku", uveren je australijski naučnik. On je dao i niz drugih primera koji naše pretke po snazi i izdržljivosti stavljaju daleko ispred nas, "proglašavajući" ih i sportskim rekorderima. Podsetio je, između ostalog, da su rimski legionari s opremom teškom oko 40 kilograma mogli da marširaju i do 60 kilometara i "izračunao" da bi više hiljada veslača iz stare Grčke danas, "ladno", konkurisalo za zlatne medalje na svetskim prvenstvima.

Ladies and Gentlemen, Edward I, king of England, grand grand son


He has desperately cultivated a tough guy image complete with mockney accent and obsession with the underworld.
But the true extent of Guy Ritchie's privileged background has been revealed - showing he is actually descended from royalty.
Madonna's former husband has always been accused of playing down his high society background. The 41-year-old, whose family fortune is worth more than £20million, is a distant descendent of Edward I according to documents found by ancestry website findmypast.com.
The site claims information on the 1911 census, which has been published online for the first time, also shows he is the great, great grandson of renowned Major General Edward McLaughlin who lived in stately home Byron Hall in Worthing. The 1911 census also showed actor Jude Law is descended from a family of bakers.
The 36-year-old, who stars as Dr Watson in the forthcoming Sherlock Holmes film, is the great-grandson of William Law, who is recorded in 1911 as a master baker.
He lived with his wife, five children and two servants in a nine-bedroom house in Brixton, South London.
Debra Chatfield, of findmypast.com, said: 'Being a family historian is a bit like being a detective, as it's all about piecing together clues from relatives' memories and locating official records, to discover who your ancestors were and how they lived.
'It is now possible for genealogists to find details about their family, including where their ancestors lived, what they did for a living, if they had servants or siblings and who their neighbours were.'
The census from 1901 shows the Sherlock Holmes author, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, may have begun a relationship with a woman called Jean Leckie before the death of his wife Louise in 1906.

Eye know you got a bad tattoo



This gem was sent to me by a reader. Thanks! I love the "painterly" style.




If anyone knows what's going on here, please let me know!





And this one... yeesh! It has everything! Spraypaint, tears, a rose, eyes... I wonder what the sad story behind it is.

Nicholas Cage arruinado


Al menos eso dicen las informaciones.
Pobrecito Nicolás, se ha comido una torta y ya no puede más.
Pues me sabe mal que tenga problemas monetarios el susodicho.
Pero es que no se puede estirar más el brazo que la manga, o pasa lo que pasa.
Y es que se pegan unas fiestorras algunos, que ya ya
Dice Nicholas Cage, que la culpa es de su administrador. O del cha-cha-cha, pero suya no.
Bueno querido, espero de veras, que tu problema con el fisco salga con bien.
Solo te faltaba ser pobre con lo feo que eres, mira que es feo, no me gusta ni un poquito.
Pero le deseo lo mejor, buena que es una!!!
