El viaje de Chihiro Después de la visita al Museo de Ghibli volvimos a ver “El viaje de Chihiro” con Armando, según él, la mejor forma de ver esta película es acompañándola con una botella de 1,8 litros de sake. No bebimos mucho sake, pero sí que nos comimos un buen plato de paella con las primeras secuencias del filme hasta que quedamos absortos en el mundo creado por Miyazaki. “El viaje de Chihiro” es una de esas pocas películas que por muchas veces que la vea no me deja de sorprender. Se puede leer e interpretar desde muchísimos puntos de vista. Es una película para niños, es una película de aventuras, es una película que te enseña a vivir, es una película en la que el protagonista-héroe es una niña, es una película de cultura japonesa, de mitología japonesa, es una crítica a la avaricia del capitalismo japonés de los años 80, es una historia de amor… Si todavía no has visto esta película corre a verla y cuando termines sigue leyendo.

Solar System Scope Photo Album Barcode Yourself by Scott Blake Barcode Yourself is a complete, interactive experience in the series of barcode art, created using the personalized data of participants. Enter an individual's gender, weight, height, age and location, and the barcode is formed using real-world data. The individualized barcode can then be printed, mapped, scanned, even depicted on a t-shirt or coffee mug. Uber-geeks can even test out their barcodes on their next grocery run. It is in scanning a barcode that the project reveals its humor, like a banner that reads: Disclaimer! Human beings are not merely worth somewhere between one cent and 10 dollars. It is here, within the confines of an American obsession with "worth," in which the fun begins. The data entered into Barcode Yourself takes a topsy-turvy twist to its personalized end numbers, with the exception of the hard-data that correlates with "location," which tallies up in the Gross Domestic Product of each country.

UNDERWATER EXPLORING IS BANNED IN BRAZIL RIO DE JANEIRO— A DISPUTE between the Brazilian Navy and an American marine archeologist has led Brazil to bar the diver from entering the country and to place a ban on all underwater exploration. The dispute involves Robert Marx, a Florida author and treasure hunter, who asserts that the Brazilian Navy dumped a thick layer of silt on the remains of a Roman vessel that he discovered inside Rio de Janeiro's bay. The reason he gave for the Navy's action was that proof of a Roman presence would require Brazil to rewrite its recorded history, which has the Portuguese navigator Pedro Alvares Cabral discovering the country in 1500. The Brazilian Navy has denied that it covered up the site and has in turn charged Mr. Marx with ''contraband'' of objects recovered from other wrecks in this country. Because of this, Navy officials said, the Government had issued an order ''to prohibit him from entering Brazil.'' 'Don't Bother Me' Several attempts to give Mr. Mr. After Mr. Mr. Mr.
