Como vocês devem ter percebido, estou completamente maluco tentando gerir este blog, o blog &lt;a href="http://modeleiro.blogspot.com/"&gt;modeleiro&lt;/a&gt;, o &lt;a href="http://www.fotolog.com/riverside"&gt;fotolog&lt;/a&gt; (que me supre um pouco a falta do&lt;a href="http://riverside.weblogger.com.br/"&gt; riverside&lt;/a&gt;, que aguarda o weblogger voltar a funcionar), e claro, minha beneditta monografia. Dada essa imensa e intensa confusão, eu esqueço de postar aqui (e também no blog modeleiro, a modelândia que me perdoe, mas já já expiarei meus pecados). Ah, sem falar nas minhas fotos de &lt;a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/wagnerartur/"&gt;viagem&lt;/a&gt;, e claro, a minha viagem pela Europa.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No &lt;a href="http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/2006/12/bye-bye-so-long.html"&gt;ano passado&lt;/a&gt; fiz minha mensagem de fim-de-ano, e gostaria de repetir o feito, com minhas impressões sobre o ano que passou. Eu sei que isso não devia ser feito já mais de com duas semanas do ano já gastas, mas me perdoem, já contei das minhas limitações.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2007. Foi um ano muito bom, indeed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;Na verdade 2007 começou muito mal, muito mal mesmo. Mas melhorou de tal forma que eu posso dizer que foi o primeiro ano com saldo positivo que eu me lembro, e pelo menos desde 2003 eu não tinha um ano tão bom - ou pelo menos não-ruim. Pode parecer pessimista da minha parte falar assim, mas não foi. Dai a César o que é de César, e os últimos anos merecem uma &lt;br /&gt;caixa de c4 amarrada em suas jóias familiares como presente pelo trabalho porco. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;Em 2007 eu estagiei, me lasquei um pouco mais na faculdade, participei de quatro modelos (nenhum como delegado), fiz mais amigos, passei o ano todo muito próximo dos outros amigos (provavelmente a melhor coisa dessa sucessão de anos terríveis), viajei bastante no Brasil e tive a imensa surpresa de me encontrar quinze minutos passados da meia noite cruzando o Rio Sena próximo à Torre Eiffel no meio de milhões de pessoas desconhecidas, numa solidão similar ao do &lt;br /&gt;Reveillon anterior, mas com um espírito totalmente diferente.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;É incrivel tentar colocar as coisas em um plano e tentar observar de longe, com alguma distância, pra tentar identificar os contextos. Ao mesmo tempo em que eu não  mudei nada na minha &lt;br /&gt;personalidade (que o Orkut descreveu hoje como charmosa e simpática, obrigado, pessoal, &lt;br /&gt;eu sabia que alguém reconheceria minha simpatia esfuziante) é engraçado você saber que algo em si mudou e que o tempo está sim, tendo seus efeitos, antes tarde do que nunca.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ao contrário de outras pessoas como meu bom amigo-irmão Napô, minha vida não está nada definida, meus desafios ainda se avolumam pacientemente e ainda preciso pregar o último prego no caixão da minha carreira universitária. Mas eu me sinto como se estivesse de volta ao colegial, no começo do Pré-Vestibular, nostálgico diante da mudança iminente, com saudade do que ainda estava em curso. Isso me deu uma chance tremenda de aproveitar e saborear tudo e mudar sem arrependimentos. No momento 2008 se apresenta como um ano de grandes mudanças, o final de um ciclo muito atabalhoado mas engrandecedor. Sim, mais modelos! Não, mais UFRN ;(&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Se no virar do calendário, só nos resta ouvir o que diziam os latinos: aproveite o dia, pois o tempo foge. E foge mesmo.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/27496153-1525874525780773636?l=malditaspersianas.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/feeds/1525874525780773636/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=27496153&amp;postID=1525874525780773636' title='1 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/1525874525780773636'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/1525874525780773636'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/2008/01/tempus-fugit.html' title='Tempus fugit'/><author><name>Wagner Artur</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00122422310015831513</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/3525/49/1600/fotoscan1b.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27496153.post-1795213674504036202</id><published>2008-01-12T01:49:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2008-01-12T02:01:43.654-03:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Riverside'/><title type='text'>O divórcio</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;S&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;im, eu lembro como se fosse ontem. Sabe aquela sensação que todo mundo tem de não saber exatamente se deixar comandar pela emoção ou pela razão? Ou melhor, não saber pra qual dar o comando, você me entendeu. Poisé, eu não sou assim. Eu sou o divórcio entre a emoção e a razão. Eles raramente de encontram, e nunca conversam demais. Cada um no seu canto, e eu no meio. Mas aquele dia foi especial. Eu entrei no bar sozinho, era quase meia noite. Era um lugar bem descolado, cheia de gente mais bonita que eu e mais enfumaçado que uma chaminé. Não lembro direito como fui parar lá, acho que simplesmente deu na telha. Bar novo, perto de casa, fui conferir. Entrei meio tímido, deixei meu casaco ao lado da porta. Tomei o cuidado de retirar minhas chaves e meus objetos pessoais que geralmente esqueço nos bolsos, não conheço esse lugar, sabe lá quem frequenta isso aqui. Se bem que aparentemente esse pessoal tem dinheiro o suficiente pra comprar tudo o que eu tenho em cerveja, então eu imaginei que era um cuidado fútil. Não importa, às vezes eu gosto de cuidados fúteis, me fazem sentir dono da situação, no controle, como um jogador de xadrez, tudo planejado. Tenho trocentos deles, depois eu te digo. Mas então, voltando, eu entrei meio sem jeito e fui sentar no balcão. Antes que o barman puxasse o ar necessário pra me perguntar eu já tinha uma nota em cima da mesa e uma bebida na ponta da língua, mesmo que até então somente no sentido figurado. A nota era alta, ele perguntou se eu tinha trocado. Claro que eu tinha, só queria causar boa impressão. Chegar abalando, você sabe. Mostrar que não sou menor que esses riquinhos, que ele devia me tratar bem. Sentei e, enquanto esperava o produto da habilidade do  barman com drinks exóticos, dei uma boa olhada no ambiente. Alguns casais espalhados no salão, uma mesa longe cheia de gente rindo e se divertindo, uma pequena pista de dança e um homem enorme e mal-encarado no balcão ao meu lado, alguns bancos depois. É, o bar parecia legal, mas de um jeito meio torcicolo. Não sei se esse termo existe, mas sabe quando você vê algo muito bonito, mas tá com torcicolo? Fica com aquele negócio incomodando? Então, o bar nem era tão bonito assim, mas tinha essa sensação de algo errado esparramada em tudo, como se aqueles chuveirinhos do sistema de incêncio tivessem sido ativados e jogado uma espécie de óleo de peroba. Não consigo descrever melhor que isso, meu chapa, desculpe, mas você entendeu. Então, o barman me trouxe a bebida em pouco tempo, veio com um guarda-chuvinha verde e vermelho, cores totalmente ausentes no bar inteiro, curiosa e coincidentemente. Eu joguei uma moeda pra ele e fiz o sinal internacional da gorjeta. Ele sorriu e jogou a gorjeta em uma espécie de balde, deve ser uma vaquinha de natal, sei lá. Fiquei nessa por uns vinte minutos. Bebi o drink, muito bom, por sinal. Dei mais uma olhada no ambiente. Os mesmos casais, alguns inclusive bem animados, se é que você me entende. A mesa grande já estava com a conversa adiantada, quase arrefecida. Não ficariam lá nem meia hora, apostei. E perdi, ficaram uns quarenta minutos. Mas como não tinha apostado com ninguém, eu ganhei. Na pista de dança, a coisa também tava mais quente, mas não tinha muita gente não. Na porta de entrada, ninguém entrava. Ninguém. E eu fiquei lá, esperando que alguém entrasse pra me tirar da minha solidão e da minha miséria. Não que eu fosse o tipo de cara desesperado assim, mas naquele momento eu tinha entrado numa espécie de torpor, ao mesmo tempo que tinha iniciado uma certa catarse. Eu olhei pra porta convidando a primeira pessoa a entrar a sentar do meu lado e dizer o que há de errado comigo. Prometi a mim mesmo que ouviria tudo, toda espécie de críticas e reprovações. Se fosse um cara eu seria seu melhor amigo, se fosse uma moça eu seria seu maior devoto, sua maior paixão. E algo me dizia que era a hora certa, o lugar certo, que as forças cósmicas me guiaram com um propósito elegante a este lugar. E com esse acaso, esse evento predestinado, essa pessoa me completaria. Eu me sentia pronto, só faltava ela entrar por aquela porta clichê desse bar blasé. E será mais uma alma perdida, tenho certeza. Mas ninguém entrou. Fiquei parado nessa posição por malditos dez minutos, impassível, e ninguém entrou. Cada minuto eu mentalizava várias pessoas fazendo esse trajeto, e ninguém entrou. Mas alguém saiu.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;O&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt; homem grande e feio saiu sem fazer alarde, tanto que eu nem notei que ele já tinha se levantado e saiu. Bom, ao menos o sociopata foi embora e eu posso olhar pro lado de lá do bar sem ter medo de alguém enfiar um palito de dentes com uma azeitona no meio da minha retina. Suspirei decepcionado e me virei pra pedir mais uma bebida ao barman. Aliás, duas, meu santo tá precisando se mexer. Quando olhei pro lado em que antes estava o gigante obtuso, notei algo novo: uma moça. Sozinha. Ela usava um vestido preto curto e parecia estar entretida com um copo de whisky vazio. Não é figura de linguagem, ela realmente estava entretida com o bendito copo. Literalmente. Ela deitara o queixo no balcão e estava olhando o copo como uma criança encantada com um aquário. Como bom cavalheiro que sou, eu não podia ficar parado. Sussurrando, pedi ao barman que servisse à moça uma dose do whisky. Me aproximei e disse a ela que não precisava agradecer pelos peixes. Se levou um susto não demonstrou. Se limitou a me olhar e agradecer. Ela se levantou da sua pose exótica e se sentou com uma postura mais sociável. Tinha um sorriso muito bonito, mas muito, muito triste. Naquele instante descobri duas coisas antagônicas e impressionantes: toda a sensação de "torcicolo", de desajuste, de disritmia, vinha daquela mulher. Não peça pra explicar, mas vinha. Parecia que se eu me concentrasse o bastante ia ver atrás daquela máscara um diabo bem feio que se escondia, encastelado. Eu não sou sensitivo nem acredito nessas frescuras, mas foi desse jeito. Algo nela exalava a mais profunda tristeza. Bom, a segunda coisa era que eu não precisava mais olhar pra porta, a minha salvação sentava ao meu lado e bebia um&lt;br /&gt;copo de whisky puro, bebendo ao fim do mundo em cada gole.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;C&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;onversamos sobre vários assuntos por algumas horas. Ela era inteligente e divertida, apesar do aspecto abatido. Todo meu cansaço sumiu, e meu único medo era de precisar ao banheiro e ter de me separar da minha companheira de noite desvalida. Quando a mesa grande já estava sendo desmembrada em mesinhas, os casais já tinham ido fazer suas coisas de casais em outros ambientes mais apropriados e a pista de dança só tocava baladas grudentas dos anos 80, eu comecei a me aterrorizar com a perspectiva do bar fechar. Algum momento isso ia acontecer. Lembro bem de ter pensado nisso. Pensei também: "que importa, tenho de aproveitar o momento, quando o futuro chegar eu lido com ele". Aparentemente as mesmas forças cósmicas que me trouxeram aqui sentiram o meu nervosismo e resolveram me poupar do meu sofrimento, a resposta pra minha questão do que aconteceria acabou sendo entregue mais cedo, bem mais cedo que eu queria. O homem grande e feio voltou. Na verdade eu só percebi quando ele estava segurando o braço da moça com aquela mão imensa e horrível, cheia de pelos, suja e fedorenta. Eu comecei a ficar nervoso só de ver. Os dois tiveram uma discussão muito rápida, e eu vi que ele queria levar ela embora. Eu me meti no meio e disse que ele não ia levar ela embora de jeito nenhum. O cretino se virou pra mim e perguntou o que eu ia fazer com ele. Idiota. Eu só me lembro de ter pulado no pescoço do infeliz. O cara era bem maior que eu mas eu não contei conversa, me agarrei no pescoço dele e comecei a socar do jeito que pude. Eu me senti como uma formiguinha tentando morder um urso enorme, imenso. Ele me deu um soco que quase me desmontou, mas eu agarrei firme. Fechei os olhos e pensei na noite, em tudo que passei até lá, até aquele momento. Olhei pra moça e ela me olhou com um jeito estranho. Uma espécie de pena, mas com algum carinho. Um jeito condescendente que eu não sei explicar, inclusive até hoje eu nunca entendi o que ela quis dizer. Eu tava lá, lutando por ela, ou ao menos pela ilusão daquele nosso reino imaginário construído em poucas horas num balcão de bar, a ilusão que poderíamos nos completar, e talvez juntos até sermos alguém. E ela me olhava com uma tristeza resignada. E no meio da minha briga com o infeliz, ele me arremessou contra uma parede. E isso doeu. Bastante. Quebrei umas quatro vértebras, incluindo uma vértebra flutuante que perfurou meu pulmão. Não sei quanto tempo consegui ficar consciente, mas sei que guardo na memória esse olhar enigmático daquela moça, que nunca cheguei a saber o nome. Também vi algumas pessoas segurarem o bandido, e acho que foi isso que me deu paz. A sensação que pela primeira vez consegui proteger alguém, fui responsável, salvei o dia. Naquele momento eu descansei, e deixei meu corpo desligar, enquanto olhava praquele rosto profundo e desejava que fosse esta uma visão eterna. Quando acordei, estava aqui, nesse hospital. Meu médico disse que os machucados foram complicados, que eu quase não sobrevivi, acredita? Por isso precisei ficar aqui tanto tempo, quase um mês. Mas já vou embora semana que vem, ainda bem. Não aguento mais esse lugar. As pessoas aqui são tão frustradas, parece que não entendem que doenças acontecem por razões irrelevantes, você só precisa seguir vivendo, e descobrir o significado disso a cada dia. Eu sei disso porque eu sei dissociar a emoção e a razão, eu já te disse. Cada qual em seu lugar. Meu mundo é um só, e é um mundo onde tudo tem seu devido lugar. E tudo faz sentido porque eu sei que um dia eu pedi ao destino que me consertasse. Ele me estendeu a mão e eu o saudei. Você não concorda?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;***&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;D&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;o outro lado da sala o homem ouvia o relato com parcimônia. Em suas mãos uma ficha detalhada: Nome, idade, e todos os detalhes do interno. O homem estava lá há 8 anos. Segundo o relatório, foi preso numa briga de bar. Aparentemente ele conversava com uma prostituta quando ela foi abordada pelo seu cafetão. Ela se recusoua ir, sendo esbofeteada prontamente pelO cafetão. O interno gritou alguma coisa, e o cafetão o desafiou. Pelo que diz nos documentos da polícia, o homem ficou parado, numa espécie de torpor. O cafetão levou a mulher embora sem nenhum impedimento. O interno entrou em estado catatônico e só foi removido do local pela polícia, a pedido do dono do estabelecimento. Por aproximadamente quatro anos ele vivou no hospital psiquiátrico como um vegetal, sem nenhuma reação ou qualquer ato racional, nem nas suas ocupações básicas, precisando de atenção total do corpo de enfermaria. Então acordou. Desde então tem tido melhora progressiva, recuperando o convívio social sem maiores transtornos. O único problema parece ser relativo ao incidente: vários profissionais avaliadores relataram diversas histórias explicando o ocorrido. De comum a todas, só dois fatos: a defesa de sua amada idealizada e um rosto misterioso, complacente. O avaliador olhou mais uma vez o paciente, que sorria de forma otimista. "Meu caro", falou pausadamente "espero que você não se irrite comigo,mas vai precisar de observação por mais um tempo. Você ainda não está pronto pra sair." Rabiscou alguma coisa no papel, dando baixa na décima nona avaliação do interno, e  marcando a seguinte pro próximo semestre. "Mas você vai ver, o tempo passa num instante".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;T&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;em problema não, doutor"- respondeu o interno, sereno - "Já te disse que não misturo as coisas. Ainda mais, não tou esperando mais nada. Até ganho mais tempo pra tentar entender o que ela queria me dizer..."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='random ramblings and deviations'/><title type='text'>The Valedictorian Premise</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;i&gt;by Ocious Wagner Artur&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The sun was setting in an odd elliptic shape, just behind the peruvian villa, at least that was the last thought that crossed Mr. Eisenberg mind before he lit his last cigarette that evening. "Quite eccentric", he mumbled as he slowly walked out of the scarlet room, gracefully resting the worn-out leather elbows of his black jacket in the long-accumuled dust of the balcony, desperately trying to minimise eventual damage to this most exquisite piece of wardrobe. The man was rather old but still handsome in his mid-fifties, with that bon vivant glee that just can't be found anywhere these days. You know how nowadays everyone looks so over-confident and preposterous, ruthlessly prepared to every single threat that life would daringly be able to pose them? His eyes wouldn't shiver or look away, his hand would never shake not even in a fraction of second enough for the most powerful camera in the world could be able to grasp a glimpse of weakness or akwardness from his movements. He was subtle and pious, an exhaling presence of a thespian extraordinaire. Probably there was &lt;br /&gt;no way above this earth to explain that man. If there was any, some would probably render those traits a consequence of his unsurmountable lack of common sense. With a rather slick than athletic build, he dressed a dark grey suit with matching white leather italian shoes and belt. He wore a long white scarf over the even longer black coat, the one with the worn-out elbows that could almost be mistaken as an old jacket. "You see",&lt;br /&gt;he mumbled again to himself, probably unaware that there wasn't anyone there to read his mind and grasp his hipotethic point, "there are people out there dying to know things I know", obviously an overstatement, but with some truth yet unnoticed at that point. As the orange sky gradually shifted into several shades of vermillion and purple, the man was made of pure pride, almost glowing an aura of self-steem so strong enough to convince anyone in the vicinity - again, no-one, for this matter - that he was indeed a winner - again, what he was not, for this matter. The man was the number one in his days. Top-grade student, befriended the most promising lecturers and tutors, made the right friends and the right choices, built a solid carreer fundamentally based on the premise that if you always do the right thing, there is no way to go wrong. He laid back for a while, inspecting and admiring the flourishing decoration of that latin haven and heaven. Gently caressed the closest wall, stroking up and down in a sensible sign of rejoice. "I have finally arrived at my destiny" thought as he filled his lungs with the warm tropical air. Twisting in a complete arc, the brick took only half a second from the ceiling before landing in the middle of his well-combed hair, fracturing his skull in such a perfect and miraculous fashion that the chief legist would curiously declare: "it's a perfect shot! one in a million! A lifetime achievement". Hard-working life,  a brick in the head, instant death, a lifetime achievement. That pretty much sums it all, doesn't it?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/27496153-4568393057477280927?l=malditaspersianas.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/feeds/4568393057477280927/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=27496153&amp;postID=4568393057477280927' title='2 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/4568393057477280927'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/4568393057477280927'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/2007/12/valedictorian-premise.html' title='The Valedictorian Premise'/><author><name>Wagner Artur</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00122422310015831513</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/3525/49/1600/fotoscan1b.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27496153.post-8280834613887359212</id><published>2007-11-30T08:59:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2007-11-30T09:02:43.121-03:00</updated><title type='text'>Um mês depois</title><content type='html'>Então, pessoal, voltei.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fisicamente na verdade eu fui.

Em breves linhas, comecei a ler HP com uma missão inexorável: comprovar que as histórias do pelotão de Hogwarts não passavam de um folhetim adolescente perto da minha &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;prima donna&lt;/span&gt;, &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;magnus opus&lt;/span&gt;, my precious, idolatrada epopéia de Senhor dos Anéis. Ao final do sétimo livro me convenci: como é bom ter dado a oportunidade de se provar errado.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Me sinto na obrigação de explicar um pouco essa minha conclusão, e pra isso queria usar como muletas um filme excelente que assisti recentemente, &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Mais Estranho que a Ficção&lt;/span&gt;. Mais exatamente o seu final - e as escolhas que o motivam - &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Wagner Artur"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 85%;"&gt;fazem toda a diferença na minha opinião sobre a idéia que meu preconceito foi absurdo e bobo - sorte minha que nem eu me ouço às vezes.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Como eu espero que você saiba - odeio espalhar spoilers, mesmo inadvertidamente - esse filme trata de um cidadão que se descobre dentro de uma história. O que seria bizarro se torna trágico: a autora da história é famosa por matar seus personagens, e nosso amigo vai precisar morrer. Diante dessa crônica de morte anunciada, o cidadão embarca na filosofia &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;carpe diem&lt;/span&gt;, se apaixona e se desespera tentando remediar seu destino. Chega inclusive a conhecer sua "autora", explicando sua história e as implicações que a morte daquele personagem que ela escrevia secretamente teriam, uma morte pra alguém que nunca soube viver mesmo.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;O que se segue é um grande dilema para a autora: Fica claro que para a perfeição da obra, é preciso morrer. O protagonista precisa se deparar friamente com a muralha irreversível da vida e, em um gesto de cinismo, morrer para a mensagem de sua vida consolidar-se em arte. Se optasse por poupá-lo, a autora não faria arte, faria Hollywood, finais felizes, todos inclusive bem felizes para sempre. Seria uma contradição. Não seria uma mensagem hermeticamente cheia de valores para as gerações seguintes, seria sessão da tarde. Não é &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Möet Chandon&lt;/span&gt;, é Coca-cola.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Pra mim ficou claro que J. K. Rowling encontrou um dilema parecido quando escreveu Deathly Hallows. Tenho duas opções: Posso matar - e assim faço que meus personagens entrem para a história, não mais a estória, mas a história mesmo, sendo lembrada pelos anais da literatura como uma série ultra-popular que soube manter seu espírito sem fazer concessões ao "agradável", resguardando sua mensagem de inevitabilidade dos desafios e a maturidade necessária pra se encarar - e aceitar - a morte sem desviar o olhar. Posso também me render ao final feliz, e jogar a ótima oportunidade pela descarga.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Na verdade, acho que afinal a escolha não foi tão difícil. Rowling foi coerente e, ao final, lembrou a todos que se tratava da mesma história de esperança do primeiro livro. Concessões faria se traísse a magia do mundo que criou - e angariou admiradores por todo o mundo - em troco do que poderia ser uma verdade mais profunda gravada em literatura. Nem todas histórias precisam ser tristes, especialmente as adolescentes e juvenis. Elas podem acreditar em final feliz, em esperança, em superação. Isso sim é uma verdade profunda, o reconhecimento que o cinismo e o ceticismo fanático são tão manjados quanto os clichês mais batidos por aí.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Assim como no filme sobre o qual eu falava, Rowling ponderou que a arte muitas vezes é mais poderosa em seu senso comum do que em sua perfeição técnica. Do mesmo jeito que seu filho-personagem, ela enfrentou o desafio de olhos abertos e disse: não vou ceder, sou melhor que você, tenho algo em que acreditar.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Nada mau. Nada mau mesmo.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/27496153-2314244234158650642?l=malditaspersianas.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/feeds/2314244234158650642/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=27496153&amp;postID=2314244234158650642' title='5 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/2314244234158650642'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/2314244234158650642'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/2007/07/ars-magica.html' title='Ars Magica'/><author><name>Wagner Artur</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00122422310015831513</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/3525/49/1600/fotoscan1b.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27496153.post-2667088795698672645</id><published>2007-07-28T05:23:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2007-07-28T05:28:57.776-03:00</updated><title type='text'>Sound the trumpets and rejoice!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://images111.fotki.com/v743/free/e1919/8/864960/3296391/DanielBatistaMH-vi.jpg?1141519708"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px;" src="http://images111.fotki.com/v743/free/e1919/8/864960/3296391/DanielBatistaMH-vi.jpg?1141519708" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Parabéns a Daniel e Melina!

On the gallows, Sina's last request was to play the ney (a Middle Eastern flute) for the last time. The family of the victim was so moved by his playing that they granted him a last minute reprieve. Instead, they asked for 150 million toumans (over $US 160,000) as compensation. Sina's family, however, has not been able to raise the full amount.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/27496153-1466736222036039201?l=malditaspersianas.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/feeds/1466736222036039201/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=27496153&amp;postID=1466736222036039201' title='0 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/1466736222036039201'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/1466736222036039201'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/2007/07/requiem.html' title='Requiem'/><author><name>Wagner Artur</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00122422310015831513</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/3525/49/1600/fotoscan1b.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27496153.post-3536616325956725281</id><published>2007-07-16T04:23:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2007-07-16T04:40:14.970-03:00</updated><title type='text'>O Futuro</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_kGr8ps12_GU/RpseG0Btu8I/AAAAAAAAAB8/yq1a9LbPvB8/s1600-h/waiting.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_kGr8ps12_GU/RpseG0Btu8I/AAAAAAAAAB8/yq1a9LbPvB8/s320/waiting.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5087693306438990786" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Hoje tive uma das minhas idéias excêntricas (megalomaníacas/insanas/bizarras/legais - dependendo do quanto você gosta de mim) que vou tentar depurar mais tarde. Mas no meio desse pensamento me surgiu uma pergunta que me pareceu interessante. Questionei a Daniel (DB), que sugeriu que eu postasse aqui e fizesse uma pesquisa. Pois bem, conhecendo meu/nosso público, sei que se trata de jovens, e isso me basta.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;A pergunta é a seguinte: "&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;como você se sente como o futuro do país do futuro?&lt;/span&gt;". Eu sei que esse termo não é exatamente criativo, mas o ponto é precisamente a sinceridade da sua resposta. Você, João ou Maria, Vitor ou Ana, brasileiro e brasileira mundano(a) e banal, como se sente sendo o futuro de um país predestinado a acontecer? Como se sente nas engrenagens dessa profecia? Não posso falar mais senão vou começar a dar idéias.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Não é só uma questão de política, de fazer sua parte na democracia. É um ritual de transição pra a vida adulta, do dever-ser para o ser. Não olhar pra o que você poderia ser quando crescesse, mas ou sê-lo ou se afogar na frustração.  E afinal, o futuro está longe? Ou uma pergunta que faz mais sentido pra mim, talvez não faça sentido algum pra vocês: você consegue se sentir incluso no conceito de país? Fora meu charmoso sotaque, tenho a etiqueta made-in-brazil?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Indiferente do dilema "nacionalismo/patriotismo é bom?", só me pergunto aonde queremos ir, para enfim começarmos a criar nosso próprio "estilo régio", nossa convicção do que seremos e podemos esperar do futuro.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/27496153-3536616325956725281?l=malditaspersianas.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/feeds/3536616325956725281/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=27496153&amp;postID=3536616325956725281' title='1 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/3536616325956725281'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/3536616325956725281'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/2007/07/o-futuro.html' title='O Futuro'/><author><name>Wagner Artur</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00122422310015831513</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/3525/49/1600/fotoscan1b.0.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_kGr8ps12_GU/RpseG0Btu8I/AAAAAAAAAB8/yq1a9LbPvB8/s72-c/waiting.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27496153.post-9010855266081486951</id><published>2007-07-11T14:23:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2007-07-11T15:30:38.527-03:00</updated><title type='text'>Para um bom modeleiro, meia palavra basta</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Acabo de enviar um dos e-mails mais pitorescos (!) que já escrevi:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Irmão na fé e nas guerras de liberação nacional,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Aí os números da Condessa do Crato&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(84) ********/********&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Contudo, acho que ela não vai não.

Geralmente eu constato várias por dia, mas hojes foram tantas que eu parei.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1) O Blog passou de um ano de "vida" e eu nem notei. Parabéns a nós! Um ano e dois meses de atividade eventual. Em breve teremos o casamento de DB, mais um motivo de festa!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2) Descobri isso pensando em escrever algo sobre a E3. Se você fuçar os arquivos de Maio de 2006, encontrará alguns comentários sobrea feira mais legal do mundo. Acontece que a E3 como a conhecemos acabou, não existe mais. Hoje existe uma mini-feira, com menos custos, voltada somente para a imprensa.  É um gosto amargo, como se o Oscar fosse transmitido pontualmente ou resolvessem fazer um OVA matando Seiya.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3) Li Kuo, um dos editores do &lt;a href="http://www.gamespy.com/"&gt;Gamespy&lt;/a&gt;, escreveu uma &lt;a href="http://www.gamespy.com/articles/802/802342p1.html"&gt;matéria&lt;/a&gt; sobre os dez maiores medos da E3. Óbvio que se referem a várias formas de perder a feira, ou seja, coisas absurdas que poderiam acontecer (em um crescendo, desde ficar doente até ser abduzido) que te impedissem de estar lá e presenciar essa verdadeira nerdfest. De todas as dez fontes do pavor supremo, a mais tenebrosa - e ao mesmo tempo, a mais humana - é a primeira: qual o maior medo? Perder o amor por isso tudo. Perder o amor por qualquer coisa é sem dúvida, o fim do mundo. Já disse Neil Gaiman, o mundo sempre está acabando pra alguém.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4) Estamos ficando velhos, não? Durante esse ano já abordamos várias futilidades e coisas interessantes por aí. Por enquanto tem sido muito proveitoso pra mim, quase uma terapia. Mas uma pergunta subsiste: vamos perder o amor um dia? Na falta de uma resposta objetiva, preciso me render ao poeta e dizer "que seja eterno enquanto dure"?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Quantas dúvidas.

isso ainda são apenas quatro ou cinco facetas. Nós poderíamos ter polido quaisquer dessas facetas, então eu acho que nós todos temos todo um elenco em potencial dentro de nós, nós somos apenas aqueles nos quais focamos. Então essa é a maneira através da qual eu sempre lidei com caracterização.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Minha teoria da personalidade humana é de que todo mundo tem uma espécie de gema com um milhão de facetas em algum lugar dentro de si e, quando nós construímos nossa própria personalidade, nós simplesmente polimos quatro ou cinco dessas milhões de facetas.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wise man.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Eu estou convencido que se você olhasse no coração de todo mundo, no planeta, é muito provável que você iria achar algo lá que você poderia amar, algo que você poderia respeitar. Pode haver uma enorme massa de coisas que são absolutamente horríveis, mas eu estou convencido que em todo mundo há um fragmento de algo pelo qual você pode sentir simpatia, que você pode olhar para alguém que se tornou um monstro e voltar a algum ponto na infância deles e pensar “Bem, você também não teve muita chance não é mesmo? Você tomou algumas decisões ruins, eles estavam olhando ao redor de você para te dar as pistas certas, e você terminou como um monstro imperdoável”. Eu acho que isso é importante. Você tem que ter simpatia pela pior das criaturas se quiser ser um escritor bem sucedido.&lt;/blockquote&gt;Wise man indeed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Trechos

/&gt;Recentemente tive uma discussão com um amigo sobre o câncer tenebroso do capitalismo (ou talvez um dos muitos, na opinião dele), em uma conversa curta e trivial.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ele ia - a essa altura imagino que já foi - viajar, e me perguntou o que eu - supostamente um grande viajante - levava em minhas viagens. Livros, toalha, dinheiro, celular. Sim, roupa, claro. Palavras-cruzadas, mas isso eu compro no aeroporto. Minhas fiéis havaianas, um par de tênis, um par de sapatos. E meu fiel e aguerrido mp3 player.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sobre este último ítem ele fez um comentário que me foi inusitado: "não preciso disso". "Mas como, você não ouve música?". "Não assim". "Mas deveria ouvir, é uma boa". "Não vou comprar uma coisa que não preciso, é esse o péssimo costume de comprar coisas que você não precisa e torná-las indispensáveis."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dos livros que li ultimamente, três me brindaram com metáforas perfeitas, se é que isso existe. Se existir - o que implica em dizer que na verdade são traduções de mensagens tênues - elas o são, se não, digamos que elas são adequadas pra caramba.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As três são bem simples. Primeiro aquela que dá o título ao Apanhador no Campo de Centeio (J.D. Salinger), que não vou explicar, por não estar convencido que sabê-la de antemão estragaria ou não o livro. Na dúvida, no spoilers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A segunda é a dualidade filosófica contemporânea entre o leve e o pesado, da Insustentável Leveza do Ser (Milan Kundera), que eu acho que até já mencionei aqui. Em curtos traços, segundo Kundera, a filosofia já enveredou por todo tipo de opostos para analisar a realidade. Desde os elementos (fogo, água, vento, etc) dos pré-socráticos, até a ética e moral, bem e mal, preto e branco, etc, etc etc. E hoje a grande questão recairia sobre o confronto entre o leve - uma vida sem responsabilidades, dionisíaca, hedonista, superficial - e o pesado - uma vida com preocupações, objetivos, responsabilidades e profundidade. Enquanto a leveza do ser se mostra insustentável, como o título denuncia, há de se manter um equilíbrio.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A terceira é de um livro que ainda nem li inteiro. Desde que ganhei ele está emprestado, só li as primeiras cinco folhas, ou mais exatamente, até esta bendita metáfora. N'A Paixão segundo G.H., Clarice Lispector discorre sobre o que ela chama de "A terceira perna". Isso seria algo com o qual você está acostumado, e subitamente se vê privado, como se tivesse uma terceira perna, com a qual fosse acostumado a andar, e então, subitamente, se tornasse um bípede atabalhoado, tropeçando pelos cantos, se perguntando como alguém consegue tolerar essa invalidez.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Imagino comigo quantas terceiras pernas nós temos. Aquela camisa velha que provavelmente nem cabe mais em você, seus ideais comunistas de um mundo melhor, um amor mal-interpretado que rende um mar de auto-complacência, os entes queridos que simplesmente um dia se vão, um desejo que você nutria com convicção mas fracassou, um blog que você acompanha religiosamente, ou uma música que fala de forma tão banal sobre todas aquelas coisas que você não consegue deixar pra trás. São sintomas, reflexos, de uma realidade apensa à sua, não eram originalmente seus, mas por uso e cotidiano, se tornam uma terceira perna cuja amputação dói e causa um sofrimento não só no instante, mas durante algum bom tempo, no qual mesmo diante da ausência da sua "perna", subsiste a lembrança, o que por si pode se constituir em uma lembrança metafuncional, um memento de uma lembrança, que serve de relicário pra que você não se esqueça que dentro dele existe uma memória.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Eu não tenho certeza se esses corpos estranhos em nossa constituição realmente são o que dizem ser. E nisso eu discordo do meu amigo sobre a importância que ele dá ao Mp3 player, assim como ao consumismo capitalista e seus fenômenos sociais congêneres. Salvo exceções extremadas - obrigado, senhor, mas eu REALMENTE não vejo utilidade pra um rifle de matar morsas, SÉRIO - todas estas coisas podem se tornar algo mais caro, quase parte de você. A dor remanescente da perda nos faz questionar se o que lateja é o vício gritando pra ser satisfeito ou é o seu ser que já não se encontra mais, nem se identifica mais sem aquele fator anexo. A linha que define o que somos nós se tornou difusa. E isso não é necessariamente ruim.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Quando nos enchemos de penduricalhos, comerciáveis ou não - sabia que eu sempre espirro três vezes? - nós crescemos. Mas passamos a depender mais, e nos sujeitamos à perda, à dor excruciante que é um dia qualquer se ver alijado de um costume, de um amigo, de uma lembrança. Sem os quais seríamos menos frágeis, mas indignos de um post de blog ou de uma canção pra se ouvir em qualquer lugar e se lembrar de casa. Já não haveria nada pra sentir saudades. E isso você leva para sempre.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/27496153-1082553946849028301?l=malditaspersianas.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/feeds/1082553946849028301/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=27496153&amp;postID=1082553946849028301' title='7 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/1082553946849028301'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/1082553946849028301'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/2007/06/tudo-aquilo-que-voc-no-deixa-pra-trs.html' title='Tudo aquilo que você não deixa pra trás'/><author><name>Wagner Artur</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00122422310015831513</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/3525/49/1600/fotoscan1b.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>7</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27496153.post-6381617593687615451</id><published>2007-06-06T00:52:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2007-06-06T00:53:19.772-03:00</updated><title type='text'>Acústico</title><content type='html'>&lt;object width="425" height="350"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/ee7oEeEidW4"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="wmode" value="transparent"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/ee7oEeEidW4" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/27496153-6381617593687615451?l=malditaspersianas.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/feeds/6381617593687615451/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=27496153&amp;postID=6381617593687615451' title='1 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/6381617593687615451'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/6381617593687615451'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/2007/06/acstico.html' title='Acústico'/><author><name>Wagner Artur</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00122422310015831513</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/3525/49/1600/fotoscan1b.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27496153.post-998498132250677822</id><published>2007-05-31T08:14:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2007-05-31T08:25:46.470-03:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Embraer'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='aviação'/><title type='text'>Clipping 007</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href= "http://portalexame.abril.com.br/revista/exame/edicoes/0893/negocios/m0129030.html"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;A Embraer na encruzilhada&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A empresa deve registrar em 2007 o melhor ano de sua história. Mas os dias de crescimento supersônico podem estar no fim&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A Embraer, terceira maior fabricante de aviões do mundo, vive um momento paradoxal. Neste ano, a empresa atingirá aquele que deve ser o melhor resultado de sua história de 37 anos. Se tudo correr de acordo com as previsões, a Embraer entregará até dezembro pelo menos 160 aviões comerciais, crescimento de 60% sobre as vendas de 2006. De acordo com os cálculos dos analistas, seu faturamento vai ultrapassar os 5 bilhões de dólares. Os números são o ápice de uma trajetória de crescimento fulminante. Desde 1998, as vendas da Embraer se expandem aos saltos, numa média de 65% anuais. Mas em São José dos Campos, cidade no interior de São Paulo onde fica a sede da companhia, esse desempenho vem sendo comemorado com certa dose de preocupação. O motivo é uma percepção que ganha força entre investidores e especialistas: a de que o ano de 2007 deve ser uma espécie de divisor de águas, que marcará um novo ciclo na história da Embraer. Os anos de crescimento frenético dificilmente se repetirão. "As projeções para a expansão da Embraer são de cerca de 10% ao ano já a partir de 2008", diz Luiz Olimpio Campos, analista de aviação do banco de investimentos Credit Suisse.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As origens da encruzilhada em que a Embraer se situa podem ser encontradas em seu próprio sucesso. No final dos anos 90, os executivos da empresa decidiram investir em um mercado praticamente inexplorado pelos concorrentes, os jatos com capacidade entre 70 e 120 lugares. A estratégia deu certo, incrivelmente certo -- mais que isso, transformou o mercado de aviação regional no mundo. Com o movimento, a Embraer deixou para trás sua maior concorrente, a canadense Bombardier, com quem disputou por uma década o mercado de aviões pequenos (com no máximo 50 lugares). A má notícia é que, justamente pelo sucesso da estratégia, esse mercado se esgotou. Há pouco espaço para o lançamento de novos produtos. O executivo Maurício Botelho, que presidiu a empresa desde sua privatização até o mês passado, afirmou que seria uma loucura fabricar aviões maiores do que o EMB 195, com capacidade para transportar até 118 pessoas. A razão é prosaica. Um jato maior incomodaria a americana Boeing e a francesa Airbus, as maiores fabricantes do mundo. "Competir com Boeing e Airbus é pouco recomendável", disse Botelho antes de deixar o comando da companhia. (Em abril, ele foi substituído por Frederico Fleury Curado na presidência.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A falta de espaço é o grande problema da Embraer. Ao mesmo tempo que se vê limitada para crescer no mercado das maiores potências da aviação civil, a empresa começa a ser incomodada em seu mercado cativo. A Bombardier lançou um avião de 100 lugares. E fabricantes russos e chineses também já anunciaram que vão entrar na briga. Diante dessa sinuca estratégica, a empresa começou a buscar alternativas. Seus novos lançamentos serão concentrados em dois segmentos. Um deles é o mercado de jatos executivos, que responde por 15% de seu faturamento. Foram anunciados recentemente novos projetos nessa área. Os principais são os Phenom 100 e 300 (com capacidade para até nove passageiros) e o grandalhão Lineage 1000, um dos maiores jatos executivos do mundo. O lance mais ousado veio em abril, quando a Embraer anunciou que pretende entrar com força redobrada na aviação militar, hoje uma atividade marginal, responsável por apenas 6% de suas receitas. A companhia estuda fabricar um avião militar de transporte com capacidade de 19 toneladas para concorrer com o consagrado Hercules C 130, da americana Lockheed Martin, um titã que domina o mercado há cerca de 50 anos. De acordo com Luiz Carlos Aguiar, vice-presidente da Embraer para a área de defesa, há um mercado potencial de 700 aviões nessa categoria.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;AS DUAS NOVAS APOSTAS da Embraer são consideradas arriscadas. Tome-se o mercado de defesa. Seu tamanho é indiscutível: só o governo americano pretende investir 628 bilhões de dólares em defesa no ano que vem. Ocorre, porém, que a aviação militar não é regida apenas pelas regras do livre mercado. Diferentemente do que ocorre na aviação comercial, qualidade e preço não são os únicos determinantes na escolha do cliente. A própria Embraer já foi vítima disso. Recentemente, o governo americano vetou a venda de suas aeronaves militares para a Venezuela e o Irã. Como boa parte dos componentes usados nos aviões de defesa da Embraer tem origem americana, os Estados Unidos têm direito a esse veto. Em 2003, a empresa venceu uma licitação do Exército americano para fornecer aviões de vigilância, em parceria com a Lockheed Martin. Mas foi tirada do jogo depois que as autoridades militares mudaram as especificações do projeto, o que inviabilizou o uso do jato brasileiro.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No segmento de aviação executiva, aquele que a Embraer pretende atacar com mais consistência, o cenário também é complexo. Aqui, o problema é justamente o livre mercado. Pelo menos sete empresas disputam esse mercado -- as americanas Boeing, Cessna, Gulfstream e Raytheon, as francesas Airbus e Dassault e a canadense Bombardier. Como em todo o mercado de luxo, uma marca glamourosa tem grande apelo na hora de vender um jatinho. E a Embraer, ao menos por enquanto, não tem esse apelo -- é como imaginar a coreana Hyundai iniciando a produção de carros esportivos de luxo para competir com Porsche, Jaguar e Ferrari. Apesar dos obstáculos à frente, a situação da Embraer não pode ser considerada ruim. Longe disso. A carteira de pedidos está abarrotada de encomendas e seus jatos regionais são considerados os melhores do mundo. O grande desafio de seus executivos, Curado à frente, é encontrar uma nova rota para a empresa -- agora que os tempos de crescimento supersônico ficaram para trás.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/27496153-998498132250677822?l=malditaspersianas.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/feeds/998498132250677822/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=27496153&amp;postID=998498132250677822' title='0 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/998498132250677822'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/998498132250677822'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/2007/05/clipping-007.html' title='Clipping 007'/><author><name>dB</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08278418188602927653</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27496153.post-7690654354374078677</id><published>2007-05-27T13:37:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2007-05-27T13:39:08.534-03:00</updated><title type='text'>Clipping 006</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://tecnologia.uol.com.br/ultnot/2007/05/26/ult4096u336.jhtm"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Escolas japonesas usam DS como parte de programa de ensino&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;O governo da província de Kyoto anunciou que adotou o videogame portátil Nintendo DS na grade curricular das escolas públicas da região.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A máquina será usada nas aulas de inglês do segundo ano do ensino médio.

O software no telefone, então, exibe a informação juntamente com dados complementares, como temperatura da água, segundo Cindy Kang, porta-voz da empresa em Seoul.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Operadoras sul-coreanas já demonstraram anteriormente telefones que repeliam mosquitos, mediam o nível de açúcar no sangue, melhoravam as funções cerebrais e curavam ressacas.

A cadeia de cola se alinha de maneira muito ordeira, sem interferência externa.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"A natureza faz a maior parte do trabalho para nós", disse Ramanath. "Só é preciso colocar a coisa certa no topo e a coisa certa por baixo, e o processo funcionará."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A cola tem uma base de moléculas de carbono. Em um extremo da cadeia existe sílica e oxigênio, e no extremo oposto enxofre. Essas moléculas finais diferenciadas agem como ganchos que aderem a outras superfícies.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Quando aquecida a 400 graus, a cola se torna ainda mais adesiva, por um fator de cinco a sete vezes. "Quando esquenta, a cola fica melhor", disse Ramanath.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ele afirmou que a cola poderia ser usada como forma barata de unir dois materiais que não se encaixam bem. E o preço --35 dólares por 100 gramas-- faria dela uma opção comercial razoavelmente barata.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ramanath acredita que a cola possa vir a ser empregada no desenvolvimento de chips usados em toda espécie de aparelhos microeletrônicos.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/27496153-3087026807101189698?l=malditaspersianas.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/feeds/3087026807101189698/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=27496153&amp;postID=3087026807101189698' title='1 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/3087026807101189698'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/3087026807101189698'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/2007/05/clipping-004.html' title='Clipping 004'/><author><name>dB</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08278418188602927653</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27496153.post-650579019321712089</id><published>2007-05-10T19:04:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2007-05-10T19:07:02.401-03:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Diesel'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Petrobras'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='BR'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='banana'/><title type='text'>Clipping 003</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Petrobras produz diesel com aroma de banana&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A Petrobras está comemorando o sucesso das vendas do diesel premium Verana, com aroma de banana caramelizada e desenvolvido para o mercado náutico de lazer. Lançado no dia 3 de abril em seis postos flutuantes de cidades dos Estados do Rio de Janeiro e São Paulo, o diesel aromatizado já contabilizou 1 milhão de litros comercializados.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Para se chegar ao Verana, a Petrobras demandou R$ 3 milhões em pesquisas que duraram dois anos. O diesel está sendo produzido na Revap (Refinaria Henrique Lage), em São José dos Campos.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;O produto é comercializado pela BR Distribuidora, que pretende expandir as vendas para outras localidades em função da aceitação por parte dos consumidores. A BR detém hoje 40% do total do mercado de combustíveis do País.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"O diesel Verana foi desenvolvido pelo Centro de Pesquisa da Petrobras. Fizemos uma pesquisa de mercado com os consumidores para chegar ao produto final", disse a gerente de comercialização da Petrobras/Revap, Lia Martins Pereira.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pesquisa&lt;br /&gt;Segundo Lia, a unidade de São José está ficando especializada na produção de combustíveis especiais, como o diesel produzido exclusivamente para o velejador Amyr Klink, com o objetivo de não congelar em baixas temperaturas. "Temos feito alguns combustíveis especiais. Esta linha tem uma demanda garantida."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Segundo o consultor de Desenvolvimento de Produto da Revap, Volnei Roberto de Oliveira, o aroma de banana caramelizada oferece mais conforto aos tripulantes das embarcações, mas o novo diesel agrega ainda outras vantagens.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Ele não faz espuma durante o abastecimento, proporciona uma redução de 98% na emissão de enxofre, otimiza o consumo e o desempenho do motor. A produção de fumaça também é bem menor."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Segundo a Petrobras, em comparação ao óleo diesel marítimo comum, o Verana proporciona redução de fumaça em até 83%.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/27496153-650579019321712089?l=malditaspersianas.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/feeds/650579019321712089/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=27496153&amp;postID=650579019321712089' title='1 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/650579019321712089'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/650579019321712089'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/2007/05/clipping-003.html' title='Clipping 003'/><author><name>dB</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08278418188602927653</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27496153.post-7612243140436766967</id><published>2007-05-10T18:58:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2007-05-10T19:08:24.390-03:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='perfume'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='maconha'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Bobagem'/><title type='text'>Clipping 002</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Empresa faz perfume com cheiro de maconha&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A flor da planta que serve como matéria-prima para a produção de maconha virou fragrância de perfume da marca européia Demeter.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;O cheiro faz parte de uma linha lançada este ano pela grife e inclui outros aromas inusitados, como o do drinque Sex on the Beach (sexo na praia, em inglês), e os de massinha de modelar, marshmallow, chicletes, serragem, charuto, tinta a óleo, vinil, uísque com tabaco e até cola em bastão e sushi, informa o diário Blue Bus.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cada frasco de 30 ml é vendido por US$ 19 (ou cerca de R$ 41) nas lojas e no site da rede, o &lt;a href="http://www.demeterfragrance.com/"&gt;demeterfragrance.com&lt;/a&gt;.

Mas também merece a crítica, como se encarregam de lembrar dia após dia as notícias alucinantes que chegam de Bagdá, capital esquartejada do país de todas as guerras civis. Sua culpa, voluntariamente compartilhada com Bush, é tão negra que chega a ocultar o brilho de seus dez anos como primeiro-ministro. Ele quis ser o melhor primeiro-ministro da história do Reino Unido, e o teria conseguido caso triunfasse na jogada mais difícil e mais arriscada, a que o levou a sua perdição.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sem o GAL (Grupo Antiterrorista de Libertação) dos Açores, sua cota nas mentiras da guerra, a insistência com que continuou defendendo a invasão e a degradação em seu próprio país e em toda a Europa das liberdades individuais e dos direitos humanos ocasionada pela guerra do Iraque, Tony Blair anunciaria hoje sua retirada transformado num dos melhores primeiros-ministros da história de seu país. Mas não lhe bastava ser um dos melhores, ele quis ser o melhor. E assim teria sido se a jogada nefasta do Iraque tivesse saído como a jogada de mestre de seu antecessor contra Hitler.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;O jornalista e escritor alemão Sebastian Haffner resumiu em 1967 com traços rápidos o que Churchill significou para a história: "Até 1940, a história do mundo e inclusive a da Inglaterra seriam concebíveis sem Churchill. (...) Mas nos anos de 1940 e 1941, Churchill foi o homem do destino. (...) Em poucas palavras, sem o Churchill dos anos 1940 e 1941 seria perfeitamente concebível que neste exato momento um Hitler septuagenário estivesse governando um estado pan-germânico das SS cujo território se estenderia do Atlântico até os Urais ou talvez mais longe". ("Winston Churchill - Uma biografia").&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pois bem, Blair quis ser, depois dos atentados de 11 de Setembro, o homem do destino. Sabia como seria difícil para Bush empreender sozinho a guerra preventiva contra o Iraque e decidiu colocar-se a seu lado incondicionalmente. Sonhou ter em relação a Saddam Hussein e à democratização do Oriente Médio, incluindo a paz entre israelenses e palestinos, um papel análogo ao de seu memorável antecessor em relação à Europa. Contribuiu para esse sonho, em não pequena medida, a metáfora abusiva trabalhada pelos neoconservadores amigos de Bush, precisamente a partir de uma visão simplista do papel que os EUA tiveram na Segunda Guerra Mundial. Bush, como um novo Roosevelt, seria de novo o libertador do mundo, ajudado por Blair, o novo Churchill. Havia novamente um Eixo do Mal - Iraque, Irã, Coréia -, como antes houvera um eixo nazi-fascista - Alemanha, Itália, Japão.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Também no meio, os apaziguadores, partidários do diálogo e da mediação, para repetir diante do terrorismo islâmico a rendição das democracias diante de Hitler em 1938 em Munique, quando entregaram a Tchecoslováquia. E os judeus, neste caso Israel, ameaçados por um novo Holocausto, agora pelas mãos de árabes e muçulmanos. Pôde sonhar, inclusive, com as conferências de distribuição do mundo e com uma recuperação da influência britânica na África e na Ásia e, logicamente, com a direção dos assuntos europeus como único interlocutor da única superpotência, por cima do continente da fraqueza e da covardia.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;O mérito dessa elaboração não é unicamente neoconservador. Depois da queda do comunismo, toda uma geração da esquerda européia se incorporou à fabricação dos grandes consensos internacionais. Uma boa parte apoiou a guerra de Bush pai contra o Iraque para restabelecer a ordem e o direito internacional violados por Saddam Hussein ao invadir o Kuwait. São muitos mais ainda os que defenderam o direito de ingerência e a obrigação da intervenção humanitária diante dos genocídios e matanças na região dos Grandes Lagos ou na Somália. A nova esquerda européia pediu e apoiou os bombardeios sobre a Sérvia e a libertação de Kosovo para pôr fim à limpeza étnica.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Já com Bush filho, inicialmente alérgico a intervenções humanitárias, estes mesmos apoiaram a invasão do Afeganistão sob o guarda-chuva da ONU. E acabou-se: já seguiram com a guerra preventiva, sem cobertura da ONU, e a fabricação de provas falsas. Salvo Tony Blair, que se transformou em um dos outros, um neoconservador, crendo que a história afinal lhe daria razão. Depois o mundo se afundou a seus pés.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A derrubada do tirano, único argumento válido para a geração moral que ele quis encabeçar, revelou-se ínfima e inútil. E as imoralidades de uma guerra imoral fizeram o resto. Quis ser como Churchill para ver se podia ser melhor que Churchill. Mas fracassou.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*Lluís Bassets é jornalista e diretor adjunto do jornal El País, no qual escreve uma coluna semanal sobre política internacional.

As if he didn't have enough on his hands smiting, answering prayers and advising George Bush on the Middle-Eastern situation, the Big Man has always made time to get involved in sports. Normally, of course, he favours the American scene (where he regularly enforces his plan on everyone from golfers to gridiron merchants) but, as Maradona will tell you, he has been known to get involved in soccerball from time to time. And what better occasion to revive his love affair with the beautiful game than Milan's Big Cup semi-final against the MU Rowdies, where, as any self-respecting Italian hack will tell you, the Lord himself didst step in to ensure Milan would get their shot at revenge against Liverpool on May 23.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;"The San Siro gave us a blessed rain," hallelujahs Alberto Cerruti on the front page of today's Gazzetta dello Sport. "Water from the sky and goals that were divine." To be fair, the &lt;i&gt;Rossoneri&lt;/i&gt; probably feel entitled to a bit of Holy favour - according to Gazzetta's Candido Cannavò, simply mentioning Istanbul to Milanisti sends them "back to the cruellest level of Hell". Which is still probably more enjoyable than sitting through Tuesday's semi-final between Chelsea and Liverpool, but Cannavò was quick to heap praise on Liverpool's Rafa Benitez. "Because of you, Milan had in their minds not only the goal of defeating the great Manchester," he kumbaya-ed. "But also the historic and slightly paranoid dream of revenge over Liverpool, over the nightmare of Istanbul. It is the final which the heavens and the people wanted."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Verdana,Geneva,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:85%;"  &gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Geneva,Arial,sans-serif;"&gt;Sadly Milan's resident Supreme Being - Silvio Berlusconi - was rather less impressed with God's interference in his domain. "I serve as the motivator for this group whenever I can," wibbled the man who believed refusing to make the beast with two backs with his wife would motivate voters to reject the legalisation of marriage between Godless g@ys. "I always suggested using two points behind the striker as a way of upholding the attacking values of this club and taking advantage of our players' attributes." But talk is cheap. After his three goals helped put the Rowdies to the sword, the second coming of Kaka is what Milan will really be looking for in Athens.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/27496153-4289894417443728336?l=malditaspersianas.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/feeds/4289894417443728336/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=27496153&amp;postID=4289894417443728336' title='0 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/4289894417443728336'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/4289894417443728336'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/2007/05/all-in-deitys-work.html' title='All in a deity&apos;s work'/><author><name>Wagner Artur</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00122422310015831513</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/3525/49/1600/fotoscan1b.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27496153.post-993691370613478996</id><published>2007-05-03T11:06:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2007-05-03T11:08:30.739-03:00</updated><title type='text'>Intervalo na programação</title><content type='html'>&lt;object width="425" height="350"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/qCVQpcY1au4"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="wmode" value="transparent"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/qCVQpcY1au4" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/27496153-993691370613478996?l=malditaspersianas.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/feeds/993691370613478996/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=27496153&amp;postID=993691370613478996' title='1 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/993691370613478996'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/993691370613478996'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/2007/05/intervalo-na-programao.html' title='Intervalo na programação'/><author><name>Wagner Artur</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00122422310015831513</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/3525/49/1600/fotoscan1b.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27496153.post-6309933147872960716</id><published>2007-05-02T16:19:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2007-05-02T16:26:14.758-03:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='opiniojuris'/><title type='text'>Onde nasce um herói?</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="font-weight: bold;" class="title"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span class="roger"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;(retirado do blog &lt;a href="http://www.opiniojuris.org/"&gt;opiniojuris.org&lt;/a&gt;, grifos meus)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Genocide and the Motivation of Rescuers&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;     &lt;div class="byline"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;by &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="roger"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;Roger Alford&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;     &lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;I said a few days ago that I wanted to do a few posts on the unusual topic of the intersection between genocide and religion. Let me start this discussion by asking whether religion is somehow a factor in the decisionmaking process of those who choose to stand up and resist genocide. That was the question raised a few weeks ago at a &lt;a href="http://www.opiniojuris.org/files/Final_Brochure.1.pdf"&gt;Conference on Genocide and Religion&lt;/a&gt; sponsored by Pepperdine Law School and the Simon Wiesenthal Center.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;The question was put by &lt;a href="http://www.law.whittier.edu/faculty_admin/members_bio-bazyler.asp"&gt;Professor Michael Bazyler&lt;/a&gt;, a leading Holocaust scholar, to &lt;a href="http://vbs.org/rabbi/hshulw/shulbio.htm"&gt;Rabbi Harold Schulweis&lt;/a&gt;, founder of &lt;a href="http://www.jewishworldwatch.org/"&gt;Jewish World Watch&lt;/a&gt;, a Jewish organization committed to living out the moral imperative of never again.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Here is the exchange between Bazyler and Schulweis:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Professor Bazyler: "... I want to take the prerogative before getting the audience to ask questions to ask a question of Rabbi Shulweis that always comes up when I talk to students. It’s based upon a statement that Yehuda Bauer, the Holocaust historian at Yad Vashem makes and he says that says &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;you know we the Jews, the people of the Book, we’ve been given the 10 commandments and he would add an 11th commandment: "Thou shalt not be a bystander." In talking to the various people that are the righteous, that are the rescuers, is there a common trait, is there &lt;/span&gt;&lt;i style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;something &lt;/i&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;in them that you find that made those people, not bystanders but rescuers&lt;/span&gt;?&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Rabbi Schulweis: Years ago we started an organization called the Foundation for the Investigation of the Altruistic Personality. One of them was a good friend of mine called Perry London who would get a lot of interviews and I must say towards the end he came up with nothing. That is what I think is the mystery of goodness.... I keep asking that question. Perry London suggested a certain kind of adventurous personality, a certain kind of initiative, but I didn’t find that to be the case, neither did he. &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;He found people who were very ordinary very passive, suddenly there is something that happens&lt;/span&gt;, I don’t know. Do you know who is gonna save you? Can you guess right now? I’m sorry to disappoint you.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Well it did disappoint me.  There is &lt;/span&gt;    &lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;nothing &lt;/i&gt;unique in the personality of a rescuer that distinguishes him or her from the rest of the crowd? I did a little more research and came upon &lt;a href="http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&amp;rls=GGLG%2CGGLG%3A2005-43%2CGGLG%3Aen&amp;amp;q=The+Rescuers%3A+Motivational+Hypotheses+about+Christians+Who+Saved++Jews+from+the+Nazis"&gt;numerous references&lt;/a&gt; to the Perry London study that Rabbi Schulweis mentioned.  Here is how one author, &lt;a href="http://www.thirdworldtraveler.com/Torture/Unspeakable_Acts.html"&gt;John Conroy&lt;/a&gt;, summarized Perry London's research on Holocaust rescuers:&lt;i&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;One small study of people who helped Jews during the Holocaust, described by Perry London in "The Rescuers: Motivational Hypotheses about Christians Who Saved Jews from the Nazis" ... found evidence to indicate that a&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;ltruistic behavior was related to three personal traits: [1] a spirit of adventurousness, [2] an intense identification with a parent who set a high standard of moral conduct, and [3] a sense of being socially marginal. &lt;/span&gt;In London's small sample, the spirit of adventurousness was perhaps best exemplified by a man whose prewar hobby was to race motorcycles on courses that required driving over narrow boards that spanned deep ditches. Once the war began, that man and his friends got a kick out of putting sugar in the gas tanks of German army vehicles, a practice that disabled the engines. The identification with a parent with high moral standards was prominent in the case of a Seventh-Day Adventist minister from the Netherlands whose father had gone to jail for his beliefs; the minister described himself as mildly anti-Semitic, but during the war he organized a large-scale operation for rescuing Jews, believing simply that it was a Christian's duty. That minister, who belonged to a religious group with an extremely small number of followers in Holland, was also cited as an example of what the researchers called "social marginality": a social separateness, a feeling of being an outsider, that seemed to allow the rescuers to have less fear about losing their attachment to the majority group. One highly effective German rescuer, also part of London's sample, had been a stutterer as a child and in an interview confessed that he had always felt friendless. The residents of the French village of Le Chambon, who saved thousands of Jews during the war, also had a certain social marginality: they were Huguenots in overwhelmingly Catholic France.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;That seems to make more sense to me. You could almost summarize these personality traits as (1) courage; (2) moral conviction; and (3) social marginality. For me at least, it is unsatisfying to say that there is &lt;/span&gt;  &lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;nothing &lt;/i&gt;unique about a rescuer.  But it also makes sense to say that it's not religion &lt;i&gt;per se&lt;/i&gt; that defines a rescuer, for religious people are perpetrators, bystanders, and rescuers. So perhaps what distinguishes the average person who is a bystander from the exceptional person who is a rescuer is that the latter has courage, conviction, and detachment. Or perhaps Rabbi Schulweis is right. Perhaps there is nothing unique about a rescuer, except that he is utterly ordinary and happens to perform extraordinary deeds.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/27496153-6309933147872960716?l=malditaspersianas.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/feeds/6309933147872960716/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=27496153&amp;postID=6309933147872960716' title='0 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/6309933147872960716'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/6309933147872960716'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/2007/05/onde-nasce-um-heri.html' title='Onde nasce um herói?'/><author><name>Wagner Artur</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00122422310015831513</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/3525/49/1600/fotoscan1b.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27496153.post-6202861897975974215</id><published>2007-05-02T13:57:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2007-05-02T16:25:07.291-03:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='futebol fiver'/><title type='text'>Curso de Excelência em Ironia Britânica aplicada ao Futebol</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Verdana,Geneva,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:78%;"  &gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Geneva,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:85%;"  &gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;"There will be concerns from a security point of view if it's two English teams," aye-ayed Parry, as if to suggest security concerns in Big Cup finals featuring Liverpool and Italian opposition are far less grave.

Física Moderna.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;A conversa toda começou com perspectivas de Mestrado, futuro acadêmico, pesquisas, etc.  Mesmo cursando Radialismo, Carol é uma autodidata de marca maior, e profunda conhecedora de todas as nuances físicas, enquanto eu... bem, eu faço Direito. Não é grandes coisas, mas na pior das hipóteses isso me qualifica a processar quem descobrir que eu sou burro ou jogar falácias contraditórias até sufocar qualquer desafeto com um verdadeiro curto-circuito cognitivo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Carolina não vê muito futuro em fazer física por ser muito restrita a parte que ela realmente se interessa, que é, justamente, física moderna. Segundo ela, do que adianta você cursar vários anos pra só aproveitar o equivalente a um semestre de aula? "Coisa de idiota", pensei comigo mesmo enquanto tentava contabilizar se cheguei a pagar um semestre de matérias que prestassem ao longo toda minha faculdade. Daí a conversa entrou no Mestrado, nosso last resort de estudar algo decente.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Discussão vai, discussão vem, Teoria das Super Cordas, Onze dimensões, beleza. Então ela menciona uma nova teoria, que propõe que no espaço (não no espaço sideral simplesmente, na matéria) existe matéria discreta, ou seja, no "tecido" do espaço existem coisas menores, que eu logo me apressei em qualificar como "ranhuras".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Se você não matou todas as suas aulas de Química e os nomes Rutheford e Bohr são mais pra você do que uma música do Skylab, então você deve lembrar dos modelos atômicos, e de sua genialidade. O grande insight deles foi justamente sacar que a matéria pode ser decomposta. Uma pedra na verdade é um conjunto de átomos- acho que Demócrito fez o primeiro modelo atômico, que foi posteriormente melhorado por uma carrada de gente, até chegar ao nosso people's choice award, o já citado Rutheford-Bohr. Já mais recentemente, descobriram menores frações da matéria: Quarks, Múons, etc. O ponto dela - e da teoria mencionada - é que o próprio espaço pode ter mini-partículas de espaço. Imagine que a existência é um desenho numa folha de papel, e de repente você descobre que o papel na verdade é matéria, mesmo que pra você, que more no papel, ele sequer exista, aparentemente. Ele é o Tudo, como diabos o Tudo pode ser descontruído em parcelas?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Eu comentei que mesmo considerando a teoria bonita e interessante, pra mim ela não acrescenta em muita coisa. Me parece ser só uma gradação vertical a mais do mesmo projeto de teoria. É como se descobrissem de repente uma partícula menor do que a menor partícula, e depois descobrissem outra, e outra, e outra. Esse tipo de conhecimento não me seduz. Especialmente por flertar com uma espécie de auto-indulgência e com o misticismo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Calma, eu explico. Pra mim, você crer que existem onze dimensões, das quais três são materiais, uma é o tempo, e mais as outras sete são enroladas em cordas é divertido, e pode até trazer um indício de verdade, mas é só um capítulo médio de uma mesma gradação vertical. Suponha-se que daqui a 10 anos descubram mais 15 dimensões em cubinhos malhados, e agora? O que vai ser dessa idéia de hoje? Um passado antiquado, mesmo que as verdades por trás dela sejam as mesmas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Einstein, quando escreveu sobre a teoria da relatividade, a fez em duas partes por uma razão óbvia. Primeiro ele escreveu a parte especial, restrita, que era fruto de análise de um fenômeno limitado, e passou daí pra formular a relatividade geral, através da qual buscava, segundo dizem, ler os pensamentos de Deus.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Para Einstein, Deus não joga dados. É tudo um grande plano, tudo tem um princípio, meio e fim. Eu acho que, ironicamente, essa visão não admite misticismos. Deus é o sujeito mais pragmático do universo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Carol concorda com a visão de Stephen Hawking, que Deus JOGA dados, o universo governado pelo aleatório. Essa é uma visão especialmente difícil de ser absorvida por mim, pois eu creio que todo aleatório, quando visto de uma perspectiva superior, esconde um padrão. Mesmo o comportamento do princípio da incerteza de Heisenberg, deve significar que na verdade existem variáveis ocultas que fazem parte de um grande plano.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ela comentou que do jeito que eu falo, parece que eu não vejo utilidade nessa pesquisa. Claro que eu vejo, claro que eu acho homens como Hawking gênios espetaculares. Mas tudo isso, todo o estudo, toda a erudição, toda a filosofia que envolve os conceitos, tudo trabalha para que, quando ela caia, Newton possa pegar e admirar a beleza da maçã.  Possa constatar que além da força gravitacional, exista um pedaço de mundo de uma beleza ímpar.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No brilho dos olhos desse instante você vê toda a justificativa da paixão pelo conhecimento: subitamente toda a beleza do mundo faz um sentido todo especial. Tudo o que você luta pra entender existe pra construir o mundo sensorial.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;E Einstein morreu achando que não conseguiu ler a mente de Deus. Tenho a impressão que Hawking, com todas as adversidades congênitas, pensa diferente.

&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;In a speech before the Chicago Council on Global Affairs, Mr. Obama presented himself as a presidential candidate “who can speak directly to the world.” After a sharp critique of President Bush, Mr. Obama called for increasing foreign aid to developing countries, expanding and modernizing the military and rebuilding fractured alliances.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;“This president may occupy the White House, but for the last six years the position of leader of the free world has remained open,” Mr. Obama said. “And it’s time to fill that role once more.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Mr. Obama, an Illinois Democrat elected to the &lt;a href="http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/organizations/s/senate/index.html?inline=nyt-org" title="More articles about the U.S. Senate."&gt;United States Senate&lt;/a&gt; two years ago, delivered the first major foreign policy address of his Democratic presidential bid to hundreds of supporters in the ballroom of a downtown hotel here. It is the first of several policy speeches he is scheduled to deliver in the coming weeks as he works to define his candidacy with specific proposals an Obama administration would pursue.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;“This election offers us the chance to turn the page and open a new chapter in American leadership,” Mr. Obama said. “The disappointment that so many around the world feel toward America right now is only a testament to the high expectations they hold for us. We must meet those expectations again, not because being respected is an end in itself, but because the security of America and the wider world demands it.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;He added: “This is going to require a new spirit, not of bluster and bombast, but of quiet confidence and sober intelligence, a spirit of care and renewed competence.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;In the opening three months of his presidential race, Mr. Obama has solidified his role as one of the leading contenders for the nomination, raising more money than any of his rivals for the primary campaign. But Mr. Obama is also striving to expand his appeal beyond that of a best-selling author and political celebrity as he tackles questions of substance and policy. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;The United States must build a 21st century military, Mr. Obama said, in addition to “showing wisdom in how we deploy it.” He called for expanding American ground forces, adding 65,000 soldiers to the Army and 27,000 to the Marines. But less than 1 percent of the military can speak Arabic, Mandarin or Korean — a shortcoming he said needs to be corrected through training and recruitment.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;“We know what the war in Iraq has cost us in lives and treasure, in influence and respect,” Mr. Obama said. “We have seen the consequences of a foreign policy based on flawed ideology, and a belief that tough talk can replace real strength and vision.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;The Bush administration, Mr. Obama said, “squandered that opportunity” to unite the world after the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. The war in Iraq, he said, “was based on old ideologies and outdated strategies, a determination to fight a 21st century struggle with a 20th century mindset.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;“And after all the lives lost and the billions of dollars spent, many Americans may find it tempting to turn inward, and cede our claim of leadership in world affairs,” Mr. Obama said. “I insist, however, that such an abandonment of our leadership is a mistake we must not make.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;If elected, Mr. Obama said he would lead a global effort to secure all nuclear weapons and materials across the world within four years. In addition to securing stockpiles of nuclear material, Mr. Obama said the United States should work to negotiate a ban on producing new nuclear weapons material.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;To discourage countries from building weapons programs, Mr. Obama endorsed the concept of providing reactor fuel through an international nuclear fuel bank, proposed last year by former Senator Sam Nunn, a Georgia Democrat who now advises the Nuclear Threat Initiative. As president, Mr. Obama said he would provide $50 million to get the fuel bank started and urge Russia and other countries to join.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Mr. Obama also called for the United States to rebuild its alliances, reform the &lt;a href="http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/organizations/u/united_nations/index.html?inline=nyt-org" title="More articles about the United Nations."&gt;United Nations&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/organizations/n/north_atlantic_treaty_organization/index.html?inline=nyt-org" title="More articles about the North Atlantic Treaty Organization."&gt;NATO&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/span&gt; and strengthen &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;“We have heard much over the last six years about how America’s larger purpose in the world is to promote the spread of freedom — that it is the yearning of all who live in the shadow of tyranny and despair,” Mr. Obama said. “I agree, but this yearning is not satisfied by simply deposing a dictator and setting up a ballot box.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Lisa Miller, a spokeswoman for the &lt;a href="http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/organizations/r/republican_national_committee/index.html?inline=nyt-org" title="More articles about Republican National Committee"&gt;Republican National Committee&lt;/a&gt;, dismissed Mr. Obama’s criticism. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;“Senator Obama started his career with a tone of hope, but has quickly turned to one of blame,” Ms. Miller said. “Obama has no foreign policy experience; therefore has no record of having done anything — wrong or otherwise. His comments today blamed others and failed to detail his own plan for success.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;      &lt;nyt_update_bottom&gt; &lt;/nyt_update_bottom&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/27496153-2308122335299586307?l=malditaspersianas.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/feeds/2308122335299586307/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=27496153&amp;postID=2308122335299586307' title='1 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/2308122335299586307'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/2308122335299586307'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/2007/04/ser-o-futuro.html' title='Será o futuro?'/><author><name>Wagner Artur</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00122422310015831513</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/3525/49/1600/fotoscan1b.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27496153.post-3985715051563348224</id><published>2007-04-23T02:29:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2007-04-23T02:31:08.623-03:00</updated><title type='text'>Ratio et corde?</title><content type='html'>&lt;object width="425" height="350"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/bmSpj9z4S0Q"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="wmode" value="transparent"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/bmSpj9z4S0Q" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/27496153-3985715051563348224?l=malditaspersianas.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/feeds/3985715051563348224/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=27496153&amp;postID=3985715051563348224' title='0 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/3985715051563348224'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/3985715051563348224'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/2007/04/ratio-et-corde.html' title='Ratio et corde?'/><author><name>Wagner Artur</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00122422310015831513</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/3525/49/1600/fotoscan1b.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27496153.post-2315950489278813481</id><published>2007-04-20T22:09:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2007-04-20T22:13:40.025-03:00</updated><title type='text'>Jabá</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Tinha esquecido de fazer o merchan:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Modelagem para Modeleiros: &lt;a href="http://modeleiro.blogspot.com/"&gt;Representatives of the World&lt;/a&gt;! em http://modeleiro.blogspot.com&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Co-editorado por mim, &lt;a href="http://bookofrodinia.blogspot.com/"&gt;Napô&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://thatguyoverthere.blogspot.com/"&gt;Pereira&lt;/a&gt; e &lt;a href="http://doidimaiscorporation.blogspot.com/"&gt;Cedê&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Ciência e Prática da modelagem aplicada!

Afinal, não tenho culpa de ser praticante e defensor de práticas como RPG e videogames, que parece ser senso comum que são bem piores pra uma pessoa do que um câncer causado por fumo ou excesso de álcool.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;    &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Hoje vi na internet mais uma &lt;a href="http://ultimosegundo.ig.com.br/mundo/2007/04/19/filme_coreano_teria_inspirado_autor_de_massacre_nos_eua_756799.html"&gt;pérola&lt;/a&gt; desse tipo de jornalismo escada-rolante-assassina: “Filme sul-coreano teria inspirado massacre nos EUA”. O que vem a seguir é lógico, e já aconteceu trocentas vezes: vários periódicos distribuem o “furo”, mesas redondas com psicólogos e sociólogos discutem o impacto da violência na vida dos jovens, alertando os pais sobre a vida tenebrosa que aguarda seu filho, que será um maníaco-depressivo ou eternal underachiever, se entrar nesse mundo de destruição. Não que a violência não tenha um papel, mas não é, de forma alguma, the crux of the issue.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Ironicamente, a mensagem mais coerente que li sobre o assunto veio da newsletter The Fiver, do Guardian, que geralmente se ocupa em comentar fofocas dos clubes ingleses, maltratar Second-Choice Steve e elogiar The Special One, Mourinho.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Verdana,Geneva,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:78%;"  &gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Geneva,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:85%;"  &gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Verdana,Geneva,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:78%;"  &gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Geneva,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:85%;"  &gt;&lt;b&gt;TROUBLE IN AMERICA &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Verdana,Geneva,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:78%;"  &gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Geneva,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:85%;"  &gt;Comedian Chris Rock used to do a good stand-up routine about the Columbine massacre. "Everybody wants to know what the kids was listening to," he'd say, referring to the hysterical media handwringing that followed the 1999 shooting spree. "What kind of music was they listening to? Or what kind of movies was they watching? Who gives a f*** what they was watching? Whatever happened to crazy? What, you can't be crazy no more? Did we eliminate 'crazy' from the dictionary? F*** the records! F*** the movies! They was crazy!"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Eu me pergunto se é difícil assim notar que o garoto tinha problemas. Garotos igual a ele tem problemas todos os dias, e parece que a lição de Columbine não foi aprendida. Eu não ficaria tão surpreso se me deparasse com um atirador na UFRN em um futuro próximo. Não lembro a cifra exata, mas acho que era algo em torno de 20% dos alunos a Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte sofrem de depressão. Tenho impressão inclusive que o número é BEM maior que esse. Vi essa notícia na capa da Tribuna ou do DN, não lembro.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dia desses na prática jurídica nosso grupo - eu não estava lá, mas me disseram - recebeu um cidadão, um jovem do interior, que mora na Residência Universitária. Como estudante de Direito, começou a aprender na faculdade sobre um troço de "direitos fundamentais", e foi lá na prática exigir seus direitos. Reclamou que as instalações são péssimas, sem segurança alguma, onde oito estudantes são amontoados onde só caberia cinco. Como boa parte dos casos, meu grupo deu um tapinha nas costas do rapaz, e disse um "nada feito".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Francamente. Você coloca um jovem num universo de pressão e exclusão social, exige que ele se desenvolva por abiogênese, se diverte em criticar aquele rapaz que anda desengonçado ou tem uma voz estranha, não tá nem aí pra se uma GRANDE PARCELA da Universidade FEDERAL - não é uma privada qualquer, em tese são os melhores que estão lá - vivem em depressão, e fica surpreso quando alguém explode?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;O caso do jovem coreano é um caso singular, mas igual a muitos outros, tanto lá fora como aqui no Brasil. Não é uma questão de por a culpa nos mundos e nos fundos, a culpa é da sociedade que não sabe tolerar os diferentes, e eu me incluo nisso. Mas é um exercício que todos precisamos empreender.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A genial editora do blog &lt;a href="http://intlawgrrls.blogspot.com/index.html"&gt;IntLawGrrls&lt;/a&gt; fez um comentário extremamente contundente. Postando um quadrado preto, disse que não ia por mais imagens da violência. Por mais que imagens assim nos choquem e nos scudam pra os absurdos que acontecem no mundo, também nos mutilam um pouco, fazendo que percamos o susto do inesperado, e aos poucos, achemos tudo normal.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Se acostumem com os flashes, garotos, o Elefante no meio da sala que ninguém quer discutir está ficando cada vez mais arredio, e suas consequências já viraram assunto normal. Só nos resta uma coisa: Blame Canada!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/27496153-7070316092624738671?l=malditaspersianas.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/feeds/7070316092624738671/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=27496153&amp;postID=7070316092624738671' title='0 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/7070316092624738671'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/7070316092624738671'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/2007/04/bang-bang-ou-you-got-it-all-wrong-man.html' title='“Bang, Bang!” ou ”You got it all wrong, man!”'/><author><name>Wagner Artur</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00122422310015831513</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/3525/49/1600/fotoscan1b.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27496153.post-9111186609630088957</id><published>2007-04-18T17:27:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2007-04-18T17:28:53.583-03:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='onion'/><title type='text'>In The Ten Commandments, I Performed All My Own Miracles</title><content type='html'>&lt;div id="print_header"&gt;   &lt;img src="http://www.theonion.com/content/themes/onion/assets/logos/onion_small.gif" alt="" /&gt; &lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div id="print_content" class="story"&gt;     &lt;h3&gt;In &lt;i&gt;The Ten Commandments&lt;/i&gt;, I Performed All My Own Miracles&lt;/h3&gt;By Chalrton Heston&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="meta"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;April 4, 2007 | &lt;a href="http://www.theonion.com/content/index/4314"&gt;Issue 43•14&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;       &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Whenever people talk about &lt;i&gt;The Ten Commandments&lt;/i&gt;, a film I made 50 years ago with a fellow named Cecil B. DeMille, they go on and on about the impressive "special effects." So let me take this opportunity to set the record straight: I performed all my own miracles in that picture, so if you're going to praise someone, it should be me.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;There was nothing in that movie that I didn't make happen with my own two hands. I realize some of these so-called actors today rely on camera tricks and computers to do their jobs for them, but I'm not one to allow some punk editor to cut and paste me into the middle of a Red Sea I didn't part myself. I rode a chariot in &lt;i&gt;Ben-Hur&lt;/i&gt; for Pete's sake, and you can be darn sure I'll channel God's power to move a little water about when I need to.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;There was no soundstage. No on-site tank. Just good old-fashioned elbow grease. That's the only way I know how to part a major body of water. I just stretched out my arm, delivered my line, and saved over a million Israelites from their certain death. Difficult? For some, maybe. But I got it in one take and took the crew out for lunch.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Of course, partial credit goes to the walking staff I was holding at the time, which I had the good sense to carve from a gypsy-cursed redwood and grant power over the earth and sea before the film began.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;If you ask me, special effects are just Hollywood talk for cutting corners. If you really want to give the audience a show, you've got to do something risky like summon God's 10 plagues on Egypt yourself. It was originally God's idea, but the execution was all me, just like every other miracle in that film. That goes for the frogs, rivers of blood, locusts, pillars of fire, even the burning bush. Call me a traditionalist, but that's all part of the job of an actor.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;For the second half of the film, I also played the part of Yul Brynner.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;That kind of dedication is why they signed me in the first place. I'm always willing to go that extra mile and personally rain down pestilence from the heavens, and I think the director saw that during casting. I even spent 40 years wandering in the desert just to grow an authentic beard. Not to mention I was the only SAG actor who had personally spoken to God.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;But I suppose I've never been one to take the easy route. Most actors would have let the studio create the Angel of Death with trick lighting, but not me. I walked right up to DeMille, looked him square in the eye and said, "Give me a chance, Cecil. Let me do it my way."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Naturally, I considered how much easier hovering over that village and single- handedly slaughtering all of Egypt's firstborns would have been if I didn't have to avoid all the households with lamb's blood on their doors—but if something is worth doing, it's worth doing right.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Even though I am constantly telling interviewers and strangers at the grocery store how I turned my staff into a snake, which then ate the snake of Pharaoh's court magician, they persist with this "special effects" nonsense. I'm starting to wonder why I bothered shrinking myself down and assuming the form of a small infant so that I could be placed in a basket and floated down the River Nile when they could have just substituted a stunt baby and no one would have batted an eye.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;What has happened to artistic integrity? Am I the only actor left who cares about his craft?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;When a director signs Chuck Heston, he knows he's getting a pro. For Orson Welles' &lt;i&gt;Touch Of Evil&lt;/i&gt;, I labored for weeks altering my genetic code to turn myself into a Mexican. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;And when I was cast in &lt;i&gt;Planet Of The Apes&lt;/i&gt;, I constructed the world's first functioning time machine to travel to the future, where I spent six months living among an advanced society of apes in order to prepare for the role. Everyone warned me about the risks of fighting in the resulting revolution, but I went just the same. I even hunted down and brought back the futuristic primates to serve as extras, but that didn't stop those jokers at the Academy from nominating the movie for Best Costume Design.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Unfortunately, I'm getting too old to keep up the pace I've set for myself. I'm ashamed to say it, but because of my age and deteriorating health, my agent would not allow me to re-eat hundreds of human beings for the 30th-anniversary DVD release of &lt;i&gt;Soylent Green&lt;/i&gt;. I guess it's time for me to hang up my hat and my magic cloak of invisibility, and retire to my lunar estate with my wife Cleopatra to live out my final days before the apocalypse on Aug. 2.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/27496153-9111186609630088957?l=malditaspersianas.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/feeds/9111186609630088957/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=27496153&amp;postID=9111186609630088957' title='0 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/9111186609630088957'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/9111186609630088957'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/2007/04/in-ten-commandments-i-performed-all-my.html' title='In The Ten Commandments, I Performed All My Own Miracles'/><author><name>Wagner Artur</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00122422310015831513</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/3525/49/1600/fotoscan1b.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27496153.post-1340070299587740888</id><published>2007-04-16T21:19:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2007-04-16T21:23:45.633-03:00</updated><title type='text'>Extra, Extra!</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Sai no jornal Folha de São Paulo: "Deputado não deve ter nada na cabeça"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(suspiro)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Piada pronta não vale : P&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/27496153-1340070299587740888?l=malditaspersianas.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/feeds/1340070299587740888/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=27496153&amp;postID=1340070299587740888' title='0 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/1340070299587740888'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/1340070299587740888'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/2007/04/extra-extra.html' title='Extra, Extra!'/><author><name>Wagner Artur</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00122422310015831513</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/3525/49/1600/fotoscan1b.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27496153.post-8172856502005298174</id><published>2007-04-15T12:28:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2007-04-15T12:29:26.073-03:00</updated><title type='text'>Y-ay!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_kGr8ps12_GU/RiJEviDOIfI/AAAAAAAAAA4/3OpUyIJzYfI/s1600-h/shirt_whale.png"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px;

     &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="post"&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Serbia's war-crimes court, established in 2003 to handle "lesser" crimes referred by the ICTY, has convicted four Serbian paramilitaries of murdering six young Bosnian Muslims during the infamous Srebrenica massacre. Although one soldier was acquitted, the case against the defendants was straightforward: they &lt;a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/4543072.stm"&gt;filmed themselves&lt;/a&gt; committing the murders:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;The trophy video - which lasts about 20 minutes - shows several members of the "Scorpions" police unit with six Muslim prisoners dressed in civilian clothes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Five of the captives have since been identified as Safet Fejzovic, Sadik Saltic, Smail Ibrahimovic, Fadil Salkic and the youngest, aged 16, Azimir Alispahic.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They were all Muslims from Srebrenica who were captured when the town fell to Bosnian Serb forces in 1995.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The prisoners - dirty, bruised and with their hands tied behind their backs - are ordered from the back of a lorry in which they had been transported from the Srebrenica area.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They are marched to a clearing in woodland near Sarajevo, where, one by one, four of them are shot in the back. Two more are forced to move the bodies of their fellow victims, before they too are shot.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At one point during the executions the cameraman, apparently drunk, is heard complaining that the battery on the camera is running down.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;This was an extremely important trial — the first time a Serbian court heard a case directly related to Srebrenica. And, of course, the symbolic importance of a Serbian court convicting Serbians of killing Muslims cannot be emphasized enough. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt; Still, it is easy to sympathize with the victims' families, who believe that the court imposed sentences that were far too lenient given the severity of the crime:&lt;/span&gt; &lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;The former commander of the Scorpions unit, Slobodan Medic, and his main accomplice, Branislav Medic, were each given 20 years in jail.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pera Petrasevic, the only defendant to have confessed to the crime, was given 13 years. The fourth defendant, Aleksandar Medic, was given five years while a fifth man, Aleksandar Vukov, was acquitted.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But several relatives of the victims, who had been brought from Bosnia under police escort, expressed disappointment at the verdicts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Whatever the ruling, my child is not here," said Nura Alispahic, who saw her 16-year-old son being killed in the video. She said it was disgraceful that one of the former paramilitaries had been given only five years - and another acquitted altogether.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"These people will leave jail one day, but my child will never come out of the ground," she said.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another one, Alispajic Azmira, said: "There is no other place where you can kill somebody without being punished for it."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Their views were echoed by well-known Serbian lawyer Natasa Kandic.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Considering the seriousness of the crime committed, justice was not done with the verdict," Ms Kandic said.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"The verdict neither brings justice to the defendants for what they have done, nor for the victims killed only because they were Bosnian Muslims from Srebrenica." &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Kandic's point is well-taken. How could Slobodan Medic, for example, deserve less than the maximum 40-year sentence, given that — according to the judge — he "ordered the three defendants and two others to execute the prisoners, take them away from the site and make it seem as if they had been killed in conflict"? Indeed, it seems clear that the court was reluctant to impose even the overly lenient sentences. The following statement by the judge says it all: "By committing such acts against defenceless civilians, by showing off their power and not showing remorse, &lt;i&gt;the defendants did not give the court the choice to pass lower sentences&lt;/i&gt;."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt; In the end, I can't help but wonder how the case would have turned out in the absence of the execution video. Would the defendants even have been convicted? Prior to the video's dissemination on Serbian television, most Serbs believed that Western accounts of the Srebrenica massacre were vastly overstated. That opinion has changed somewhat since the video was released, but how much is anyone's guess.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/27496153-265237586587349183?l=malditaspersianas.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/feeds/265237586587349183/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=27496153&amp;postID=265237586587349183' title='1 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/265237586587349183'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/265237586587349183'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/2007/04/uma-cmera-na-mo-e-uma-idia-na-cabea.html' title='Uma câmera na mão e uma idéia na cabeça'/><author><name>Wagner Artur</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00122422310015831513</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/3525/49/1600/fotoscan1b.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27496153.post-6191729151630323915</id><published>2007-04-12T18:47:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2007-04-12T18:48:20.761-03:00</updated><title type='text'>4 freedoms - http://intlawgrrls.blogspot.com</title><content type='html'>&lt;h3 style="text-align: justify;" class="post-title"&gt;                          &lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://intlawgrrls.blogspot.com/2007/04/4-freedoms.html"&gt;4 Freedoms&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;                      &lt;/h3&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;                        &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_vkDIml_Ibpg/Rh6DTijWbgI/AAAAAAAAAVI/TfkJSkRZLW0/s1600-h/franklin+eleanor.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5052620203672104450" style="margin: 0px 10px 10px 0px; float: left;" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_vkDIml_Ibpg/Rh6DTijWbgI/AAAAAAAAAVI/TfkJSkRZLW0/s200/franklin%2Beleanor.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today marks the 62d anniversary of the death in Warm Springs, Ga., of &lt;a href="http://www.whitehouse.gov/history/presidents/fr32.html"&gt;Franklin D. Roosevelt&lt;/a&gt;. As U.S. President for the prior 13 years, he had delivered the country a New Deal that led it out of the Great Depression, and then, after the attack on Pearl Harbor in December 1941, led the country into war.&lt;br /&gt;Roosevelt, like any leader, was not perfect; his &lt;a href="http://intlawgrrls.blogspot.com/search/label/Japanese%20internment"&gt;orders&lt;/a&gt; to intern American citizens and residents on account of their Japanese ancestry cannot be forgotten. Yet his many contributions also must be remembered. Among them is the Jan. 6, 1941, State of the Union &lt;a href="http://www.presidency.ucsb.edu/ws/index.php?pid=16092"&gt;speech&lt;/a&gt; in which he declared:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;In the future days, which we seek to make secure, we look forward to a world founded upon &lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;four essential human freedoms&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;The first is freedom of &lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;speech and expression&lt;/span&gt;--everywhere in the world. The second is freedom of every person to &lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;worship&lt;/span&gt; God in his own way--everywhere in the world.&lt;br /&gt;The third is freedom from &lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;want&lt;/span&gt;--which, translated into world terms, means economic understandings which will secure to every nation a healthy peacetime life for its inhabitants--everywhere in the world.&lt;br /&gt;The fourth is freedom from &lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;fear&lt;/span&gt;--which, translated into world terms, means a world-wide reduction of armaments to such a point and in such a thorough fashion that no nation will be in a position to commit an act of physical aggression against any neighbor--anywhere in the world.&lt;br /&gt;...The world order which we seek is the &lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;cooperation&lt;/span&gt; of free countries, working together in a friendly, civilized society.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;With those words Roosevelt explained what was at stake in World War II, already raging in Europe. The ideas resonated; noted illustrator &lt;a href="http://www.archives.gov/exhibits/powers_of_persuasion/four_freedoms/four_freedoms.html"&gt;Norman Rockwell&lt;/a&gt; made a painting of each of the 4 freedoms. The speech, moreover, laid the groundwork for a new, postwar global order. Within Roosevelt's articulation of friendly cooperation may be found a vision of what months after his death would be established as the &lt;a href="http://www.un.org/aboutun/charter/"&gt;United Nations&lt;/a&gt;. With the aid of his widow, &lt;a href="http://www.whitehouse.gov/history/firstladies/ar32.html"&gt;Eleanor Roosevelt&lt;/a&gt;, that organization would give birth to a &lt;a href="http://www.un.org/Overview/rights.html"&gt;Universal Declaration&lt;/a&gt; in which civil, political, economic, social, and cultural rights, interlinked in the 1948 as they had been in the 1941 speech, would receive protection and promotion.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/27496153-6191729151630323915?l=malditaspersianas.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/feeds/6191729151630323915/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=27496153&amp;postID=6191729151630323915' title='0 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/6191729151630323915'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/6191729151630323915'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/2007/04/4-freedoms-httpintlawgrrlsblogspotcom.html' title='4 freedoms - http://intlawgrrls.blogspot.com'/><author><name>Wagner Artur</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00122422310015831513</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/3525/49/1600/fotoscan1b.0.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_vkDIml_Ibpg/Rh6DTijWbgI/AAAAAAAAAVI/TfkJSkRZLW0/s72-c/franklin%2Beleanor.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27496153.post-6101335204515301000</id><published>2007-04-07T15:18:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2007-04-07T15:19:49.591-03:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='iraq'/><title type='text'>The Five Stages of Rightist Iraq Commentary</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.discourse.net/archives/2007/04/the_five_stages_of_rightist_iraq_commentary.html" title="http://www.discourse.net/archives/2007/04/the_five_stages_of_rightist_iraq_commentary.html"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Sadly, No! brings us a &lt;a title="Sadly, No!

Famous for an annual wife-carrying competition, for regular success at the world air-guitar championship and record-breaking hurling of rubber boots and mobile phones, Finland can now claim another accolade: its citizens are reportedly the world’s keenest pranksters. Celebrated for a full week at the beginning of April in the capital, Helsinki, and for weeks at a time in rural areas, the traditional “spring joke” in Finland has been raised to a national art form.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;This long involved young men trying to catch the eye of women, typically by donning fancy dress (in the cold war a favourite was the garb of Soviet border guards) or through good-natured abduction—often in combination. More recently motorists have learned to watch for fake road-safety signs, which frequently cause springtime gridlock and collisions. Diplomats are increasingly wary of water-bomb attacks at functions—one thin-lipped European ambassador lodged a protest after being drenched in 2005. Even political leaders indulge. In 2003 the government apologised after stating that Finland wanted Sweden expelled from the European Union during a row about pickled herring.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;But Finland’s enthusiasm is not unique. Dr Is Poli-Savon, an anthropologist at the Paris-based Fairpooll Foundation, says that in many countries fooling is seen as a celebration of the end of winter. “In modern societies it serves as a rare chance for semi-subversive behaviour within safely defined parameters”, he says. Polls conducted by his team of researchers suggest that, despite suspicions to the contrary, many different cultures do share a common sense of humour. &lt;/span&gt;             &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;A surprising number of German adults take part in April Fooling, along with many French (see chart) who mark “&lt;em&gt;poisson d’avril&lt;/em&gt;” by sticking paper fish on each others’ backs. Most Iranian jokers choose April 3rd, the 13th day of the Persian calendar, for mild joking. But not absolutely everyone sees the funny side. Adults in Equatorial Guinea, an oil-rich speck of a country in west Africa, are reportedly the least inclined to find anything to chuckle about. Fooling by anyone over the age of 13 years recently became a criminal offence, with exceptions only for the president and his extended family.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/27496153-5693028011418146231?l=malditaspersianas.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/feeds/5693028011418146231/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=27496153&amp;postID=5693028011418146231' title='1 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/5693028011418146231'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/5693028011418146231'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/2007/04/fools-paradise.html' title='Fools&apos; paradise'/><author><name>Wagner Artur</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00122422310015831513</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/3525/49/1600/fotoscan1b.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27496153.post-2520155181216635806</id><published>2007-03-31T14:15:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2007-03-31T14:22:14.197-03:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='errado'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Riverside'/><title type='text'>A importante arte e ciência de estar ou ser errado</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_kGr8ps12_GU/Rg6YoldLvnI/AAAAAAAAAAw/rh5IDUyYobk/s1600-h/Livro-Parreira.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_kGr8ps12_GU/Rg6YoldLvnI/AAAAAAAAAAw/rh5IDUyYobk/s400/Livro-Parreira.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5048140055345610354" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;por Wagner Artur&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Um dos conceitos mais interessantes que Adam Smith - entre zilhões de outros conceitos interessantíssimos - usa é a predisposição do homem ao sucesso, ou melhor, a preferência deste áquele, ou vice-e-versa. Segundo ele, você deve sempre levar em conta o magnetismo que o vencedor exerce sobre os demais. Como uma aura, o caminho do vencedor se ilumina dando uma espécie de dica subtendida: faça o que faço.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Uma das figuras mais curiosas da Bíblia é o apóstolo Saulo de Tarso, mas conhecido como Paulo, aquele que escreveu as epístolas do Novo Testamento. Primeiro por ter sido um grande vira-casaca, deixou de perseguir os cristãos pra defendê-los, segundo por ser o homem forte que pôs a igreja - como instituição - nos eixos. Mas um terceiro ponto, que eu acho mais capcioso é desconhecido pela mitologia cristã padre-marcelística. Paulo disse expressamente que tinha um espinho em sua carne, que sempre serviria pra pô-lo nos eixos, "mostrar quem manda", e não deixá-lo jamais ser tomado pela ânsia de fazer uso do seu poder de influência com motivos privados. A natureza desse "espinho" é alvo de intenso debate. Aceita-se que é uma metáfora pra algo que o incomodava, mas ele não podia se livrar. Algo pra fazê-lo lembrar de sua hmanidade, seu caráter e sua missão.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Se me permitem, eu tenho minha opinião - amadorística, frise-se - sobre o que danado era esse entrave. Pra mim devia ser tipo um pecadinho bobo. Teria sido gula? Será que ele não conseguia deixar passar um coelhinho assado no ponto? De repente ele contava histórias de pescador e a baleia de Jonas nunca passou de uma truta. Talvez ele passasse horas se admirando à beira de um lago, tal qual Narciso. Sim, claro que ele tinha todas suas obrigações morais de líder da Igreja, grande apóstolo e etcetera etcetera etcetera, e tal função exigia dele total compromisso - incluindo celibato - e tamanha abnegação ao ponto de rechaçar quaisquer desses hábitos mundanos. Mas talvez o ponto seja justamente esse: Talvez a melhor forma de garantir que seu servo mais fiel fosse o mais íntegro fosse garantir, já de partida que ele seria - ao menos em parte - silenciosamente errado.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Eu acredito sinceramente que minha geração - eu incluso - perdeu o senso da importância do erro. Talvez pelo mesmo glamour identificado por Smith, o fulgor do sucesso brilha muito forte em nossa geração cyber-acelerada. E qual o papel do erro nessa história? O erro nasce da coragem e cria a educação. Não que todos os erros tenham sido cometidos com coragem ou que você sempre aprende após errar, mas na maioria das vezes você se arrisca e perde, e depois aprende. Erros são forças motrizes de desenvolvimento pessoal que nos permitem crescer mais em zonas mais catastróficas. Dia desses eu lia um blog de um maratonista amador de natal, um médico, que dizia que toda corrida causa danos ao corpo humano. Mas ele se recupera, e volta mais forte. Assim, esse intermezzo na verdade se compõe de um dano, que provoca uma reação contrária que não só conserta o dono como deixa a estrutura toda mais forte, mais estável.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Saber errar é ter consciência disso. É saber que ás vezes você precisa opinar, e que há chances que suas escolhas se demonstrem infelizes. Saber errar é saber que a possibilidade de perder não é o bastante para impedir de tentar. Saber errar é ter ciência que somos humanos, e não raro nos colocamos em matizes sociais tão complexas que chamar algo de verdade é extremamente cáustico, delicado e precário.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Contudo, talvez o mais importante seja justamente, reconhecendo a beleza e a glória proveniente - finalísticamente, claro - do erro, aprender a tolerá-lo nos outros. Vocês já estão cansados de me ouvir citar que "o inferno são os outros". Mas nesse caso, em que de repente podemos descobrir que a verdade nos foge e nós caímos no erro, o inferno é não reconhecer em nossas palavras uma teoria relativa, cuja glória e pujança - nos padrões de Smith - não será absoluta a ninguém. É nessa incerteza que confiamos nossa humanidade. O inferno é pensar que se é o único a ver em uma terra de cegos, isso sim, uma impenetrável solidão.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/27496153-2520155181216635806?l=malditaspersianas.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/feeds/2520155181216635806/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=27496153&amp;postID=2520155181216635806' title='2 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/2520155181216635806'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/2520155181216635806'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/2007/03/importante-arte-e-cincia-de-estar-ou.html' title='A importante arte e ciência de estar ou ser errado'/><author><name>Wagner Artur</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00122422310015831513</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/3525/49/1600/fotoscan1b.0.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_kGr8ps12_GU/Rg6YoldLvnI/AAAAAAAAAAw/rh5IDUyYobk/s72-c/Livro-Parreira.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27496153.post-2132753727152957899</id><published>2007-03-31T13:53:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2007-03-31T14:00:56.024-03:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Riverside'/><title type='text'>Hoje, ontem, e o dia antes de ontem.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_kGr8ps12_GU/Rg6TqFdLvmI/AAAAAAAAAAo/XBTeKuPLuBE/s1600-h/cseriousart.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_kGr8ps12_GU/Rg6TqFdLvmI/AAAAAAAAAAo/XBTeKuPLuBE/s400/cseriousart.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5048134583557275234" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;por Wagner Artur&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Hoje eu acordei por volta das onze horas da manhã. Olhei ao meu redor, enquanto esfregava o rosto. Meu celular não estava lá. Diabos. Do lado dele deveria estar o telefone sem fio daqui de casa. Também não estava lá. Putz. Eu deixei os dois lá antes de dormir, tarde da madrugada, pois esperava uma ligação logo cedo, na madrugada das oito da manhã, de um amigo que viria assistir uns filmes aqui em casa. Cowboy Bebop, e outros. Waking Life, talvez. Tem aquela citação do início do filme de Cowboy Bebop: "He was just all alone. He couldn't enjoy a game with anyone else. Like living in a dream... That's the kind of man he was...".&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Ontem eu acordei umas seis e meia da manhã. Olhei ao meu redor. De um lado um amigo estava acordando na cama ao lado sintonizando em sua própria rádio mental como um radialista chamando a sociedade pra viver seu dia. Costume dele, ele sempre foi assim, alegre, ao menos era a aparência, Deus sabe como essas coisas podem distanciar pra caramba da realidade. Do outro lado, o nosso colega de quarto se virava em sua cama, talvez se debatendo procurando alguma forma de esquecer que o dia longo começava. Nós nos levantamos lentamente, tomamos o café da manhã e subimos correndo pra vestir nossos trajes de guerra. Outro amigo, no quarto do outro lado do corredor, em reclamar da minha gravata, bem típico dele. Ele me empresa uma azul, mais apropriada, e me explica a riqueza dos nós de gravata. Eu obviamente me perdia absorto com minhas inseguranças sobre meu estudo, desempenho, e minha capacidade. Todo mundo na correria, o show ia começar, e eu, com pasta crachá e tudo, corria com o pessoal pensando como o dia começou silencioso.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;(...)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;No dia antes de ontem eu saia de casa um pouco assustado, um pouco ansioso, pra faculdade. Usava minha camisa uniforme-de-calouro (aprovado 2001), sob o pretexto de "não vai ter problemas se estragar no trote". O mês era outubro, não costuma chover. Andava bem quente. Eu entrei na sala, cheia de gente sem nome, que eu nunca tinha visto na vida. Vi um cidadão com o caderno em cima da carteira, olha só, insígnia dos Presas de Prata. Se você não sabe o que é, vai continuar sem saber. O importante é que eu sabia, e isso já me deixou mais perto de casa. Não lembro bem qual foi a aula. Lembro porém, de sair na hora do intervalo, passar o corredor H, indo em direção ao G. Em frente ao G havia uma banquinha, com alguém - cuja fisionomia não lembro - com uma lista com o nome de um monte de gente e outro monte de países. Eu perguntei o que &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;era. "É a SOI, um evento aqui do curso. Quer se inscrever como delegado?" "Quanto custa?" "Dez reais" "Sei... mais tarde eu passo, tou sem dupla" "Tá bem". Muitos pensamentos de admirável mundo novo. Fazem parte de ontem, de hoje, e do amanhã.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Amanhã foi um dia bom. Depois do almoço eu fui pro estágio, tomei fabuloso capuccino da dona Maria, e enfiei minha cara em dois processos. Fiquei a té um pouco depois do horário, como geralmente fico, e depois fui de ônibus pra casa. Senti a falta de não ter levado livro nenhum pra ler no caminho. Fiquei pensando no mestrado, na graduação, no tempo como um todo. Como é bom rever velhas esperanças.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/27496153-2132753727152957899?l=malditaspersianas.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/feeds/2132753727152957899/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=27496153&amp;postID=2132753727152957899' title='1 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/2132753727152957899'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/2132753727152957899'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/2007/03/hoje-ontem-e-o-dia-antes-de-ontem.html' title='Hoje, ontem, e o dia antes de ontem.'/><author><name>Wagner Artur</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00122422310015831513</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/3525/49/1600/fotoscan1b.0.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_kGr8ps12_GU/Rg6TqFdLvmI/AAAAAAAAAAo/XBTeKuPLuBE/s72-c/cseriousart.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27496153.post-7619266189591148904</id><published>2007-03-31T13:22:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2007-03-31T13:24:20.945-03:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='HQs'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='capitão'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='humor'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='américa'/><title type='text'>25 MANEIRAS DE ENGANAR A MORTE</title><content type='html'>&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;img src="http://img2.glowfoto.com/images/2007/03/30-1332286870T.jpg" height="300" width="202" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;- Mataram o Capitão América!&lt;br /&gt;- Oh, meu Deus!...er... quer dizer, filhos das puta!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Em primeiro lugar, antes de tudo, o texto abaixo não é meu, mas como achei deveras engraçado, resolvi traduzir (e/ou adaptar quando necessário) do blog onde o encontrei. Toda essa comoção em torno da morte do Capitão América nós, leitores de quadrinhos conscientes, sabemos que não quer dizer nada, pois para ressuscitar-se um herói só é preciso um estalar de dedos, portanto aí vão 25 soluções para a morte do velho Capitão américa:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;01 - O morto não era o verdadeiro Capitão, era um Skrull&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;02 - Depois de ser enterrado em Arlington, os restos mortais do Capitão, impregnados da fórmula do supersoldado, se mistura com uma massa crítica de patriotismo e volta à vida como... The Arlington Thing! (TM).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;03 - Substitui-se o Capitão por uma versão mais jovem sua, vinda de outra dimensão. Sempre funciona.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;04 - Não era o verdadeiro Capitão, era um andróide orgânico.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img src="http://img4.glowfoto.com/images/2007/03/30-1358481399T.jpg" height="300" width="195" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;- Mataram o Capitão América!&lt;br /&gt;- De novo?!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;05 - O Capitão ressuscita misteriosamente ao terceiro dia, sem nenhuma explicação aparente.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;06 - Seu cadáver é mordido por uma aranha radioativa e ele retorna à vida como o Capitão-Aranha!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;07 - O morto não era o verdadeiro Capitão e sim uma manifestação do Cubo Cósmico.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img src="http://img5.glowfoto.com/images/2007/03/30-1359029742T.jpg" height="300" width="194" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;- Mataram o Capitão América!&lt;br /&gt;- Sim, agora conta uma novidade!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;08 - No próximo número sai Ed Brubaker dizendo que não está se sentindo muito bem, e a série continua como nada tivesse acontecido, com o Capitão América vivinho.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;09 - O morto não era o verdadeiro Capitão e, sim, um Fantasma do Espaço.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10 - Ele é subistituído por um Capitão mais jovem, vindo do passado...naaahhh... isso seria demais da conta. Não se atreveriam. Não com o Capitão. Impossível, tô dizendo...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;11 - No enterro do Capitão, o Homem de Ferro coloca sobre seu túmulo uma rosa contendo lágrimas de tristeza, quando de repente ela se abre e o Capitão pula dela alegremente de dentro dela e grita "PEGADINHA!"&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img src="http://img2.glowfoto.com/images/2007/03/30-1413415833T.jpg" height="300" width="197" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;- Mataram o...&lt;br /&gt;- Tá, tá, tá! Já sei, mataram o Capitão América!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;12 - O morto não era o verdadeiro Capitão, e sim um clone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;13 - Aparece Steve Rogers, Jr., o filho secreto do Capitão América, que&lt;br /&gt;a) manteve-se no anonimato até este exato momento.&lt;br /&gt;b) mostra ser extremamente parecido com seu pai.&lt;br /&gt;c) não tem mais nada de bom pra fazer mesmo, então se transforma no novo e vibrante Capitão América!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;14 - O morto não era o verdadeiro Capitão, era a Força Fênix.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;15 - Descobre-se que toda a vida do Steve Rogers que conhecemos na verdade aconteceu em uma realidade paralela. Na Terra verdadeira o Capitão acaba de tirar os Vingadores de um bloco de gelo.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img src="http://img2.glowfoto.com/images/2007/03/30-1423427768T.jpg" height="300" width="193" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;- Mataram o Capitão América!&lt;br /&gt;- Zzzzzzzzz...&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;16 - O morto não era o verdadeiro Capitão, era um ator contratado&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;17 - O Doutor Estranho envia o Hulk ao reino dos Mortos com uma corda amarrada ao pulso. Hulk dá porrada em todo mundo no Inferno, abraça forte o Capitão - mas sem viadagens - e Namor os puxa de lá pela corda.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;18 - O Capitão aparece no dia seguinte, batendo ponto na Shield. "Morto? Tem certeza? Eu não lembro de nada disso."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;19 - O morto não era o verdadeiro Capitão, era a Mística.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img src="http://img5.glowfoto.com/images/2007/03/30-1441008183T.jpg" height="300" width="196" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;- Mataram o Capitão América!&lt;br /&gt;- Primeira vez na semana.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;20 - Aparecem quatro Capitães: um negro, outro robótico, um jovem e um outro alienígena. E logo depois o verdadeiro.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;21 - Colocamos sua mente no corpo do Visão e o chamamos de...hmmm... Visão Americana!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;22 - O morto não era o verdadeiro Capitão, era o Nicholas Cage provando o figurino para um filme do Capitão América.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;23 - O acontecido não foi real e sim um sonho de Tony Stark.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;24 - O morto não era o verdadeiro Capitão, era seu irmão gêmeo idêntico, Bo Rogers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;25 - Bom, não me ocorre mais nada. Alguém mais?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img src="http://img5.glowfoto.com/images/2007/03/30-1505463189T.jpg" height="300" width="196" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;- Mataram o Capitão América!&lt;br /&gt;- Ah, cara!

Participar de uma &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;comic-con&lt;/span&gt;, ou seja, uma convenção de quadrinhos. Pra quem não está ligando o nome ao herói, Halle interpretou recentemente Ororo Munroe (Tempestade) na trilogia dos X-Men. Os produtores foram enfáticos em deixar claro que se tratava de uma trilogia, um arco fechado de história, sem continuação prevista, já que provavelmente o orçamento teria de ser deveras inchado, pra conseguir trazer de volta todos os atores dos filmes anteriores. Ela mesma já tinha declarado, após o primeiro filme, que não teria interesse em se vincular de tal forma a um personagem, ainda mais após receber seu primeiro Oscar.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Após a conferência, porém, ela mudou de opinião. Disse ter razões pra acreditar que fazer mais um filme dos X-Men é quase uma obrigação.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Gostaria de citar uma matéria da Gamespy:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;blockquote style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;"When those who aren't familiar with video games ask me how the interactive medium can compete with the greatest works of the literary world or the sensory allure of the big screen, I am always left with a single argument. Video games, by their nature, entertain through immersion. You don't read about someone else's epic battle against dragons, you're swinging a magic sword and slaying them yourself. You aren't watching the FBI agent take down the terrorist, you're actually aiming the crosshairs and squeezing the trigger. It's a very powerful form of make-believe that remains relevant and culturally significant no matter the age of the player."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Poucas coisas me empolgam tanto quanto minha faceta nerd. Meus delírios de fanboy. Muito do que cada pessoa é é definida por quem são seus pais, onde ela cresceu, onde estudou, que livros leu. Claro que não tou defendendo um determinismo exarcebado, apenas gostaria de lembrar: nós somos nossos interesses e nossas paixões.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Existe um jogo pelo qual sou particularmente apaixonado, chama-se Final Fantasy VI.  A história se passa em uma sociedade tecnológica pós-mágica, em que lampejos de um mundo antigo brilham como uma centelha fraca, mas não conseguem superar a força da tecnologia. Nesse cenário, um império submete povos à mão de ferro, enquanto alguns tentam combater a ameaça expansionista.  E enquanto o mundo - literalmente - parte ao meio em um conflito de proporções épicas, ainda temos tempo pra aprender como é difícil pra um pai manter uma filha sozinho, como a gravidez na adolescência requer cuidados especiais e que por mais que você aposte todas as fichas de sua vida na jogada mais emocionante, sem qualquer remorso ou medo, sempre há algo que te ancora ao mundo. Sempre há algo esperando por você.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Irmãos que decidem destinos com uma moeda, aventureiros que atravessam o mundo buscando a panacéia pro seu amor perdido, nenhum desses conceitos é novo. São todas histórias que já ouvimos desde cancioneiros na idade média, ouvimos em músicas, vemos em filmes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;E é espetacular ver a força de uma história evoluindo e sobrevivendo ao tempo, à modernidade.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Eu me considero um apreciador de histórias. Não interessa se é a história do ursinho pimpão que é perneta e dança polka pra sustentar o orfanato do seu dono, não interessa se é a Tempestade de Shakespeare e Próspero perde a paciência mais uma vez com Ariel e Caliban, e abandona seu bastão de magia na metade da peça. O que nos liga a todas essas fábulas são justamente as metáforas que elas contém. São traços que podemos olhar e traçar paralelos em nossas vidas, não só na base da experiência passada, "já passei por situação semelhante", como no caso do questionamento: "e se fosse eu nesse lugar?".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Acho que eu até já disse isso aqui, mas C. S. Lewis já disse que boas histórias são feitas de pessoas normais em situações incomuns ou de pessoas incomuns em situações normais. Uma situação totalmente comum seria tediosa, um contexto totalmente anômalo seria irreconhecível, inconciliável.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Final Fantasy VI, assim como muitos outros, foi uma forma de se contar uma história. Um livro de som e imagem, comédia e drama. Mais que uma ópera, alguns com mais de 90 horas de duração, são quase uma experiência de vida que de tão profunda, deixa marcas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Halle Berry se encantou com a paixão dos fãs. Eles sabiam cada detalhe dos seus heróis, eles a admiravam por seu trabalho, e em lugar nenhum ela encontrou pessoas tão interessadas em cada detalhe da sua personagem. É a paixão que faz você buscar conhecer mais e mais daquilo que ama. A mesma que faz aquele jovem catar toda a discografia de uma banda que goste. Pensando nisso tudo, eu só posso ser grato a deus por não passar disso, um fanboy, cheio de paixões mundanas que se pra alguns podem parecer insignificantes, me elevam à emoção das árias mais bonitas e à humanidade dos escritos mais sinceros.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ah, não podia deixar de citar, a &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Aria de Mezzo Carattere&lt;/span&gt;, da imagem acima:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;blockquote style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;"Maria: Oh my hero, so far away now.&lt;br /&gt;Will I ever see your smile?&lt;br /&gt;Love goes away, like night into day.&lt;br /&gt;It's just a fading dream.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt; I'm the darkness, you're the stars.&lt;br /&gt;Our love is brighter than the sun.&lt;br /&gt;For eternity, for me there can be,&lt;br /&gt;Only you, my chosen one...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt; Must I forget you?

Seja aquilo que Hollywood em sua egomania de Midas "ourifica" ao custo de milhões de dólares, ou o que ditam as modinhas indie/cult. Digo isto para tentar isentar esse post de parcialidade, muito embora... Bem... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Enfim, não é só porque eu curti muito &lt;a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0364569/"&gt;Oldboy&lt;/a&gt;, do Chan-wook Park, que me empolguei para ver a nova película escrita e dirigida pelo cara. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Claro, foi o nome que me fez clicar no link, mas saca só esse material do filme, cuja história, numa linha, é de uma garota que pensa que é um ciborgue de combate e, indo parar no sanatório, se envolve com um outro não muito normal que pensa ser capaz de roubar as almas das pessoas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object width="425" height="350"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/4W9qMpVlfSI"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="wmode" value="transparent"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/4W9qMpVlfSI" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No &lt;a href="http://www.cyborg2006.co.kr/"&gt;site&lt;/a&gt;, que é muito bom, tem mais sobre o filme e os protagonistas. Detalhes divertidos da personalidade de cada um, como o fato da garota não se alimentar, mas sim se "carregar" com baterias, e o cara ser viciado em pingue-pongue. Mas parei na segunda página do "livro" (vide &lt;a href="http://www.cyborg2006.co.kr/"&gt;site&lt;/a&gt;) pra não tirar a graça do filme.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Espero que pelo menos saia no circuito de cinemas alternativo, ou disponibilizem fácil em torrent, e com legendas, por favor!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;UPDATE&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ah, o nome o filme: "I'm a cyborg, but that's ok"&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/27496153-117029225985870466?l=malditaspersianas.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/feeds/117029225985870466/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=27496153&amp;postID=117029225985870466' title='0 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/117029225985870466'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/117029225985870466'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/2007/01/kind-of-romantic-comedy_31.html' title='kind of romantic comedy'/><author><name>dB</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08278418188602927653</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27496153.post-116952483737704086</id><published>2007-01-23T00:58:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2007-01-23T01:00:37.696-03:00</updated><title type='text'>Retratos da UFRN - Malvados</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.malvados.com.br/tirinha919.gif"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px;" src="http://www.malvados.com.br/tirinha919.gif" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/27496153-116952483737704086?l=malditaspersianas.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/feeds/116952483737704086/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=27496153&amp;postID=116952483737704086' title='6 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/116952483737704086'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/116952483737704086'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/2007/01/retratos-da-ufrn-malvados.html' title='Retratos da UFRN - Malvados'/><author><name>Wagner Artur</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00122422310015831513</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/3525/49/1600/fotoscan1b.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>6</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27496153.post-116951648826480344</id><published>2007-01-22T22:31:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2007-01-22T22:41:28.973-03:00</updated><title type='text'>Amargas ou doces falácias</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Hoje encontrei na internet um site *muito* bom. Muito mesmo. O endereço é http://www.fallacyfiles.org/, e se dedica a analisar, classificar e comentar aquelas ferramentas que são as melhores amigas do populismo, da demagocia, ou simplesmente da insensatez e dos argumentos ridículos que nem uma mesa de bar merecem.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Eis que, curiosamente, no mesmo dia encontro a seguinte notícia, seguida dos comentários:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;h1&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;h1&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Passageiro não embarca por causa de camisa contra Bush; comente&lt;/span&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Allen Jasson foi proibido de embarcar em um vôo da companhia australiana Qantas por usar uma camisa com a imagem do presidente dos EUA, George W. Bush, e a frase: “terrorista número um”. Jasson já tinha passado pela mesma experiência em dezembro do ano passado.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ele estuda a possibilidade de processar a empresa aérea por impedir o exercício da liberdade de expressão. A Qantas diz que "os comentários que possam ofender outros clientes ou ameaçar a segurança nos aviões do grupo Qantas não serão tolerados, sejam verbais ou por escrito".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;O que você acha da decisão da companhia aérea?&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Agora, vejam a qualidade de comentários que somos forçados a aturar nessa internet sem porteira:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span class="g"&gt;&lt;b&gt;[Nilson de Souza Rodrigues]&lt;/b&gt; &lt;b&gt;[Pres.

Comentários ofensivos, estampas ofensivas a quem quer que seja devem ser proibidos, justamente por ofender outros passageiros que pensam de forma diferente, havendo o risco real de agressões físicas e morais. A Cia.Aérea está certìssima.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;!--[if !supportLineBreakNewLine]--&gt;&lt;!--[endif]--&gt;&lt;span class="g"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span class="g"&gt;&lt;b&gt;[Cíntia]&lt;/b&gt; &lt;b&gt;[Fortaleza CE Brasil]&lt;/b&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Estamos vivendo sob a ditadura do Bush.

Karl Marx, em nosso (e não "dele", pois tudo o que existe no mundo é do Povo) livro O Capital, explica que, quanto mais o proletariado for explorado pela burguesia, mais vai tomar consciência de seu papel histórico transformador da sociedade.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ou seja, a consciência de classe do proletariado é despertada por sua exploração pela classe burguesa. Isso acontece porque o proletariado é a classe escolhida para fazer a Revolução. Logo, como o proletariado é a classe naturalmente revolucionária, é também a classe explorada. Sendo a classe explorada, é a classe que fará a Revolução. Q.E.D.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No trecho abaixo do Manifesto do Partido Comunista, Marx prova que só o proletariado é uma classe verdadeiramente revolucionária:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;(...) só o proletariado é uma classe verdadeiramente revolucionária.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Sendo assim, a extração do produto do trabalho do proletariado pelos burgueses industriais levará a uma crescente organização e tomada de consciência de classe do proletariado, como mostrado no gráfico 1:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v465/clodovil/opiniao/grafico1.jpg" alt="" height="300" width="300" /&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;O gráfico demonstra que há um relacionamento íntimo entre a extração da mais-valia e consciência de classe proletária. É o mesmo tipo de correlação que vemos entre o surgimento de icebergs e a construção de navios, como mostra o gráfico 2:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v465/clodovil/opiniao/grafico2.jpg" alt="" height="300" width="300" /&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Logo, assim como o mar reage ao surgimento de navios, o proletariado reage à exploração dos burgueses, engendrando a Revolução Socialista. A alienação dos trabalhadores estará terminada e os meios de produção voltarão para as mãos deles, assim como era no período pré-capitalista.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;retirado do informativo da esquerda

style="font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Meme, Counter-meme&lt;/b&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt; &lt;span style="font-family:verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:78%;"&gt; &lt;i&gt;By Mike Godwin&lt;/i&gt; &lt;/span&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;   &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;   &lt;span style="font-family:verdana, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;It was back in 1990 that I set out on a project in memetic engineering. The Nazi-comparison meme, I'd decided, had gotten out of hand - in countless Usenet newsgroups, in many conferences on the Well, and on every BBS that I frequented, the labeling of posters or their ideas as "similar to the Nazis" or "Hitler-like" was a recurrent and often predictable event. It was the kind of thing that made you wonder how debates had ever occurred without having that handy rhetorical hammer.   &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;   &lt;span style="font-family:verdana, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;Not everyone saw the comparison to Nazis as a "meme" - most people on the Net, as elsewhere, had never heard of "memes" or "memetics." But now that we're living in an increasingly information-aware culture, it's time for that to change. And it's time for net.dwellers to make a conscious effort to control the kinds of memes they create or circulate.   &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;   &lt;span style="font-family:verdana, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;A "meme," of course, is an idea that functions in a mind the same way a gene or virus functions in the body. And an infectious idea (call it a "viral meme") may leap from mind to mind, much as viruses leap from body to body.   &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;   &lt;span style="font-family:verdana, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;When a meme catches on, it may crystallize whole schools of thought. Take the "black hole" meme, for instance. As physicist Brandon Carter has commented in Stephen Hawkings's &lt;i&gt;A Brief History of Time: A Reader's Companion&lt;/i&gt;: "Things changed dramatically when John Wheeler invented the term [black hole]...Everybody adopted it, and from then on, people around the world, in Moscow, in America, in England, and elsewhere, could know they were speaking about the same thing." Once the "black hole" meme became commonplace, it became a handy source of metaphors for everything from illiteracy to the deficit.   &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;   &lt;span style="font-family:verdana, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;By 1990, I had noticed, something similar had happened to the Nazi-comparison meme. Sure, there are obvious topics in which the comparison recurs. In discussions about guns and the Second Amendment, for example, gun-control advocates are periodically reminded that Hitler banned personal weapons. And birth-control debates are frequently marked by pro-lifers' insistence that abortionists are engaging in mass murder, worse than that of Nazi death camps. And in any newsgroup in which censorship is discussed, someone inevitably raises the specter of Nazi book-burning.   &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;   &lt;span style="font-family:verdana, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;But the Nazi-comparison meme popped up elsewhere as well - in general discussions of law in misc.legal, for example, or in the EFF conference on the Well. Stone libertarians were ready to label any government regulation as incipient Nazism. And, invariably, the comparisons trivialized the horror of the Holocaust and the social pathology of the Nazis. It was a trivialization I found both illogical (Michael Dukakis as a Nazi? Please!) and offensive (the millions of concentration-camp victims did not die to give some net.blowhard a handy trope).   &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;   &lt;span style="font-family:verdana, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;So, I set out to conduct an experiment - to build a counter-meme designed to make discussion participants see how they are acting as vectors to a particularly silly and offensive meme...and perhaps to curtail the glib Nazi comparisons.   &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;   &lt;span style="font-family:verdana, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;I developed Godwin's Law of Nazi Analogies: As an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches one.   &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;   &lt;span style="font-family:verdana, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;I seeded Godwin's Law in any newsgroup or topic where I saw a gratuitous Nazi reference. Soon, to my surprise, other people were citing it - the counter-meme was reproducing on its own! And it mutated like a meme, generating corollaries like the following:   &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;li&gt;Gordon's Restatement of Newman's Corollary to Godwin's Law: Libertarianism (pro, con, and internal faction fights) is the primordial net.news discussion topic. Any time the debate shifts somewhere else, it must eventually return to this fuel source.  &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Morgan's Corollary to Godwin's Law: As soon as such a comparison occurs, someone will start a Nazi-discussion thread on alt.censorship.  &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Sircar's Corollary: If the Usenet discussion touches on homosexuality or Heinlein, Nazis or Hitler are mentioned within three days.  &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Van der Leun's Corollary: As global connectivity improves, the probability of actual Nazis being on the Net approaches one.  &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Miller's Paradox: As a network evolves, the number of Nazi comparisons not forestalled by citation to Godwin's Law converges to zero.  &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/ul&gt; &lt;p&gt;   &lt;span style="font-family:verdana, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;In time, discussions in the seeded newsgroups and discussions seemed to show a lower incidence of the Nazi-comparison meme. And the counter-meme mutated into even more useful forms. (As Cuckoo's Egg author Cliff Stoll once said to me: "Godwin's Law? Isn't that the law that states that once a discussion reaches a comparison to Nazis or Hitler, its usefulness is over?") By my (admittedly low) standards, the experiment was a  success.       &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;   &lt;span style="font-family:verdana, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;But its success had given me much to reflect on. If it's possible to generate effective counter-memes, is there any moral imperative to do so? When we see a bad or false meme go by, should we take pains to chase it with a counter-meme? Do we have an obligation to improve our informational environment? Our social environment?   &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;   &lt;span style="font-family:verdana, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;But this power to do good may also be a power to do ill. Anyone on the Net has the power to affect stock prices. (Or worse: a fraudulent re-creation of the Tylenol-poisoning scare could cause a national or international panic.) And viral memes are capable of doing lasting damage.   &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;   &lt;span style="font-family:verdana, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;While the world of the Net is filled with diverse critical thinkers who are ready to challenge self-indulgent or self-aggrandizing memes, we can't rely on net.culture's diversity and inertia to answer every bad meme. The Nazi-comparison meme has a peculiar resilience, in part because of its sheer inflammatory power ("You're calling me a Nazi? You're the Nazi in this discussion!") The best way to fight such memes is to craft counter-memes designed to put them in perspective. The time may have come for us to commit ourselves to memetic engineering - crafting good memes to drive out the bad ones.   &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;   &lt;span style="font-family:verdana, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;Otherwise, &lt;i&gt;plus ça change, plus c'est la  &lt;/i&gt;meme&lt;i&gt;  chose&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/2.10/godwin.if.html"&gt;http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/2.10/godwin.if.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;    &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/27496153-116898469819595499?l=malditaspersianas.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/feeds/116898469819595499/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=27496153&amp;postID=116898469819595499' title='0 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/116898469819595499'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/27496153/posts/default/116898469819595499'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://malditaspersianas.blogspot.com/2007/01/internet-awareness.html' title='Internet awareness'/><author><name>Wagner Artur</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00122422310015831513</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/3525/49/1600/fotoscan1b.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
