Televicio New Fall 1x04 (2) Memories of the rifleman

Previously, on 'Televicio' ... we briefly reviewed the developments of September. Some were still in the pipeline, to which are added releases that have come in October and November. DRAMAS



Tower Prep
A new student is removed from power and led his life without really knowing how or why a new school out of the ordinary, which offers students and teachers can do things more unusual still. Along with his new friends, the newcomer will discover the secrets of the place, its past and its passageways behind the walls. Sounds familiar, no? No, not 'Harry Potter' series of TV, but it could be the institution where they exchange their young American in a few years. With all the nose, Cartoon Network gets first non-animated series in the wake potteresca, replacing the special powers and magic atmosphere of strict Old World Gothic school by a college prep (preparatory) U.S. with computers and voice omnipresent machine snuff. Obviously, the story goes "here's something wrong in this strange place, and will be a gang of teenagers who desfagan the mess slowly between classes. Lost

It
girl who unknowingly share our world with creatures with magical powers, which are fighting each other, and in which a character suddenly appears "chosen" for something, but do not yet know very well what, unless it depends on the existence of all this bla bla bla. Nor is it 'Harry Potter'. In fact, there are no minors in this series, and it is better, because it is fairy whose powers is to restore power vital (and remove) based on physical contact and sex. That of "fairy" not to lay off anyone, it is not Bell's 'Peter Pan' with wings. The word used in the series is "fae" (pronounced "fei"), and then fit lots of creatures that will appear in subsequent episodes, some more or less known folk tales and other retouched: wisps, Furies, harpies, oracles, hsiens, aswangs, genies, mesmers, banshees ... It's a Canadian series that has a dot if it takes. There bisexual triangles (normal, when the main character is a succubus), there are werewolves, there is a midget wearing a pub, and there is a school of comic relief with a dialogue to give him her yoyas and the screenwriter, but his star, with the portentous name Ksenia Solo, becomes quite sugarcane. The walking dead


guess that needs little introduction. Goes from zombies that suddenly appear, so far in rural southern United States, and how uninfected managed to survive the zombies as much from each other. Is based on a cult comic, is backed by the AMC chain, which has shown very good taste in terms of series ("Mad Men, '' Breaking Bad 'and' Rubicon 'offerings have been so far) and we'll see if it is cornered in a ghetto for fans or know to succeed beyond. Glory daze


American university campus, September 1986. A group of rookies come to start the course with the usual elements typical of the subgenus: discover the world, girls, guilds, drunkenness, etc. Only one chapter is now, but apparently not going to follow the subtle style of 'Mad Men' to portray a time when the recent past: the pilot episode wallows quite on posters, clothing and technology (or lack thereof) of the moment. And of course, music. Or have spent a paste in royalties, or the rights of the eighties music are on sale, because they have to leave ten or twelve songs of all the "greats" of the era: Spandau Ballet, Duran Duran, Frankie Goes To Hollywood Men At Work ... Half of the enjoyment of the series can be made to play "Beat the intro" every time you enter a new song and trying to say title, artist and year before they begin to sing. The big C


More than drama, "dramedy", or a mixture of drama and comedy half-hour by-chapter format that is spreading in the last couple of seasons ('Nurse Jackie' and 'Hung' are other examples). This in particular is a "desperate housewife" with terminal melanoma (that's the part of drama) who begins to see life differently to the news. His problem is how to tell to his family and acquaintances (and this is the comedy) the husband immature strangle the teen, brother coñazo green, the black student, fat and mouthy, the mysterious neighbor ... To be fair, the main character is a teacher, not professional housewife style Wisteria Lane, but it shows the rich suburban twang. Great performance by Laura Linney, which bears the most weight. Just finished the first season of 13 episodes. COMEDY



Melissa and Joe
soft and for the whole family. It's about a MILF who would pull on his two nephews, and as a young man was a banner but now is councilor of Toledo (Ohio) and is very busy, a babysitter tab former executive of the same age with which it has a typical roll of which are perfect for each other, but they deny it, want and hate and such. I suppose part of the original idea was to keep up to date with political and economic issue for which Joe lost the gigs, but in the end all the criticism that might be is very tapadita, this is a sitcom. The increasingly poor

Decisions of Margaret Todd
Interestingly, the pair of comedians David Cross and Will Arnett, already agreed on 'Arrested Development' match now back not once but on two series simultaneously. A, 'Running Wilde' is about to be canceled, and this one was born from the beginning with only 6 episodes, appropriately, and taking place in England where the season of the series usually consist of that number so short chapters. It is about an incompetent representative of energy drinks is the U.S. envoy to London to sell product there. From there, the comedy, rather Feist, is in the "increasingly poor decisions" that takes both personally and professionally. There is a gentle and light comedy, but his grace is residing in embarrassment and in the continuous blunders of the protagonist. ANIMATION



The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes Delight comiqueros
around the globe, both as to hate to see it as both at a time, and the daughter of Marvel and Disney. The Avengers of the title are the bunch of Marvel superheroes ever: Hulk (or the mass of life), Thor, Captain America, Iron Man, Ant-Man, the Wasp, and a lot of villains mindundis human supervillains and his service. It consists of a series of very short episodes featuring several of the players, then the series itself, where no new characters stand out.

-

Additional Scenes:

- You've just released everything that was filmed for 'Outlaw', the truth is that we were taking the dot. It's a shame, because Jimmy Smits as a lawyer was sold alone, but they started trying to make the character a kind of rock star and justice, with its pickups and gambling debts, it was too implausible. The ideas for the cases were not bad, however. I do not know what to think foreign channels, but just canceled a number you sell it cheaper, and you plug eight innings Saturday in a summer month, for example, very rigged. Free advice ignorant.

- 'Caprica' will not be the first season, although there will be a new spin-off of 'Battlestar Galactica' and 'Fringe' is on the razor's edge. Bad times for science fiction. Closed projects may offer in terms of number Seasonal could help sell the product to both the producers and the public. Another free advice.

- I've seen the name 'Televicio' is used for a lot of things on the Internet. By the way, it is clear that I chose in tribute to the immortal Les Luthiers. Of every ten people who watch TV ...

Memories of the Rifleman Benjamin Harris
Kingdom of Redonda (2008)

(Thanks to Remolina)

In 2008, Kingdom of Redonda published a new edition of the memoirs of Captain Contreras a valuable document on the life of a English soldier of the Golden Age That same year, the peculiar and academic editorial writer Javier Marias continued with the genre of war testimonies reissuing 'Memories of the Rifleman "(" The Recollections of rifleman Harris'), on the life of a British soldier from the early nineteenth century, who participated in the campaigns against Napoleon through half of Europe.

The main difference between both books is that, although the first dating back two centuries before, the author wrote it with his own hand, while the second was illiterate, and therefore owe it to someone else, the editor Henry Curling, its collection and start writing, some thirty years after the guns stop Rifleman Harris. These reports have been published several times, often relocating several passages, as the original volume, in spite of being arranged chronologically, contains several jumps back and forth, and some repetitions. This edition, by Ian Robertson returns to the original order, except for a paragraph that moves from site. This decision reinforces the sense of oral reports, war stories, we might say, having heard a veteran such as we said and as you come to mind.

memories themselves occupy only about two hundred pages, and if the book arrives at 360 is based include the prologue and epilogue Robertson in both English and English, including illustrations repeating (¿?), and the usual list of titles and positions of the imaginary kingdom of Redonda Marias continues to play to keep alive .

Harris was the son of a pastor of Dorset, and a young man learned the trade of shoemaker. Drawn out in 1802 for the Army Reserve and was forced to leave their homes just as his father began to need care and attention, as ill health were viniéndosele up. " Impressed with the look and reputation of the riflemen, with their green uniforms (like the covers of this book) and its obligation always go in the most dangerous places (first or last front line in the rear), ended in one of his best regiments, the 95 th. After spending periods of training in England and Ireland, he practiced his craft in Denmark, Portugal, Spain and the Netherlands.

landed in the Iberian Peninsula in Portugal, participated in major battles and Vimeiro Roliça and entered Spain just in time to join the dangerous and horrible withdrawal of the troops of General Moore from the plateau of Castile and Leon to the ports Vigo and La Coruna, persecuted by the French in midwinter and in the midst of great suffering. Achieved Vigo embarked on by the hair and after recovering back in England, was sent to Walcheren in the Netherlands, where, as almost all the English landed there, he fell so gravely ill that took years to recover enough to lead a life more or less normal. Therefore had to hang up his gun and return to be a shoemaker, which moreover do not stop even during his life as a soldier. His ability and the importance of footwear in an army away from home made him a valuable soldier beyond his ability to shoot.

English as a good soldier during his narrative can not avoid dropping his pride considered part of the best army the world, the best regiment, along with the best officers, etc., and you miss it strange to discover that they are not particularly welcome in many places to go, despite "coming to help." That was, obviously, the official excuse. The truth is that the British gave aid was for pure political interest to the progress of the great enemy of the moment, France.

Those things aside, as expected, a soldier's memoirs contain things that would be taken by incredible if there was a work of fiction and contain passages that even the best novelist could improve. In Portugal, after he witnessed a sergeant in great agony after being shot "Going from side to side as he crossed from side to side through both English", "half an hour had left the sergeant Frazer and, indeed, had so completely forgotten as if he died one hundred years. And that the spectacle of so much bloodshed that the mind does not allow delay in death in particular, even if it's the best friend of one. There was no time to think, because at that time it was all action for the Rifles, and barrel of my gun was so hot I could barely continuous shooting touch, and I was obliged to hold the rifle butt as he kept shooting. "

Later, after the battle, "I suddenly noticed a dead man who had fallen (...) opposite side from the bushes charred (...). This unfortunate, French apparently was so roasted as if it had been broached and turned into a fire. Several of my teammates were like me, and once more exchanged pleasantries about the look of the poor guy. All her clothes had been burned, and he was quite churruscado and shrunk like a dried frog. He pointed to one or two of the soldiers beside him, and we examined it closely with no little curiosity, turning their guns. I am surprised to remember how miserable fate of that poor wretch then we did not raise any compassion, but only laughter. "

There is also an emotional episode with the wife of a dead comrade, a peculiar situation in the home of a Danish and her five daughters, a sad Christmas Eve snowfall in Sahagún (León), drinking in several countries, Portuguese black eyes, and finally the desire, after months and months of convalescence that "For God's sake, let me go and die in my regiment!". But certainly my favorite paragraph is:

"While I was there sick (in hospital in Hythe, following the withdrawal from Galicia), I remember hearing that at some point he had decided to dispense with the Salute to bury our comrades, and many died so quickly. When he finally left the hospital and went to the cemetery to see their graves, I saw them lined up in two rows. In the same way they had to make in life, also lay dead in formation. "

Harris's military career was not particularly long, since being called up in 1802 to its final low in 1814, twelve years, but their active participation in foreign wars is reduced to the period 1808-1810. However, when Curling collected his memories, he considered a perfect example of the type of soldier who forged a global empire for His Majesties Gracious. So we should thank you put on record for posterity these experiences that he admired Harris could not write.

When I Turn 21 What Do I Need To Renew My License

Henry VIII: King and the court of the Tudor 1x03

Henry VIII: King and the court of the Tudor
Alison Weir
Ariel

The other day I saw this book in a store, with its cover photo of Jonathan Rhys Meyers, the actor who plays King Henry VIII of England in the television series 'The Tudors' and read the name of the author, Alison Weir (pronounced "Weir"), I realized that it must be a translation of 'Henry VIII: King and court' he wrote in 2000. I have not read the English version (I think it was from 2003, although he probably has now reissued the title and taking advantage of extending the pull of the series), but the English original, so take the opportunity to review and recommend this book strongly.

Obviously, how good are history books is announcing the beginning of what they are going, so every one of them and who are interested in it are mutually attracted. So who take this in their hands would do well to take it, because it does exactly what it says on the cover: it describes not only the life of Henry VIII, but how was his court, with as much detail as possible to know through documents that have survived. Nothing less than a third of the book is devoted to this description, which anyone interested in real life, everyday of the court "Henrician" or who has been smitten with the beautiful clothes and luxurious ambience of the portraits and the series will know exactly how things were. I also indicate that after seeing this series, I've noticed it several details and even whole sentences that he had read earlier in this book, so I have no doubt that the writers have used it extensively as a guide and source of ideas. Orange is the cardinal, the accident with the pole, the leg wound draining all his life, etc, etc.

The court of Henry VIII was big, noisy, greedy, chaotic, smelly and with a strange mixture of formality and almost hooliganism from the abundance of young men of good family who could not sit still, and as soon bored (including Henry himself), organized hunts, fair, entertainment, partying and dancing continue. The clothes were so magnificent as they appear in portraits and films, but hygiene was typical of the sixteenth century, and clean and make things smell good (or merely not smell) was a losing battle. In any residence where he was the king at any given time, there may be between 800 and 1500 people, who ate and were housed under the monarch, that is, from those who paid their taxes. Anyone who could squeeze out all dressed up with no problem despite continuous real fights, the problem of how to tame both nobles and commoners was never fully resolved ever.

Sometimes the best guide you can have on a society are the laws that were enacted, and between this time, was forbidden to be naked in the kitchen, piss in the fireplace and leave dishes on the bed of the king. If this came to be mentioned in a law, it was happening, and often. The feeling I always have these stories of so many courts is that far from being a model of courtesy and delicacies such as love of art displayed on screen, what must be some sort of wedding, bachelor party and any costume party together. Would solemn moments, which would be observed with respect, but after the tedium of the formal part of the day, what must be a pretty Despiporre of consideration. There are several accounts that describe the king throwing chunks of food to tinker with his guests, like a gourd, and also get to help serve. Gives the impression that it had not been the king, Henry would have been the biggest party animal of the kingdom (and even that was given not bad at all). It also seems to be fair, that once he knew he was ultimately responsible for what was his own house, had controlled everything that could come to have, based mostly bad genius.

In all this, of course, it shows the personality of the king who is at the center of the show. Enrique was big, strong, burly young and more morbidly obese. Was not destined to the throne, not being the eldest son of Henry VII, but after the death of his brother Arthur, became heir and king at age 17. In his time the king reigned and ruled, and he always made it clear he was going to do for that person and putting all the resources at its disposal, from giving or withholding appointments, land and privileges to declare war or decree death sentences Ministers reached, enemies, and questionable, as is known, to his wives. "There is no head in the kingdom as Noble can not make it fly, "he said.

received the best education available in his time and although it was not a bookworm, he was awake, then learned what interested him and developed his own views with a strong personality. Although chose many of his companions on account of what had fun with them, buddies plan to be cool you, also had a good nose for people who value the task for government, outside the class it was, but final decisions were reserved jealously: "If my hat found out my plans, I would pull the fire," he would say. And he said: "Be careful what you put in your head, because you can never get back. "

portion of the biography is very well told in strict chronological order to know what the exact status of the situation when it took such and such decisions without what happened then influence the image. We're talking about the life of someone who broke an ancient religion, had wars within and outside the country and married six times, so no matter needed to tell. But the part I find most commendable is the first third of description of the court. Any other detail that you get to do too neat, like the decorations of the palaces or the fabrics of dresses, but it deserves worth reading every word, because you get so the precise effect of a court charged, oppressive, repolluda, where everything that could be turned golden brown, until the pastry, to show opulence. In addition, everyone was together all day and all night, and where there is trust just giving disgust. The king was not alone anymore, and moreover, there were people whose only job was to be with him, some of which dealt exclusively with help when going to do belly and report any problem with it. Other things or documents have not survived, but which informs us of the night feeling more constipated than normal (with the diet that was brought it was not uncommon), took a laxative and to ease up at two in the evening.

Finally, if the mark of excellence in a history book is to reach not only those who are interested in the subject matter, but a majority of the public in general, this takes. Moreover, taking into account the complexity of the character and the court of the moment, is one of the best written books I've ever read, precisely because his style is not having it, but let the events, scenery, customs and actions of the protagonists speak for themselves. Weir is not a typical historian who writes protected by a professor or a researcher or teacher working: not working in anything related to history, so the only way they can sell their books is well documented and written as they are, and since 1991 has published thirteen British royalty on the Medieval and Renaissance (Eleanor of Aquitaine, the War Rose, Mary of Scotland, Elizabeth I, etc., including one on the six wives of Henry VIII himself, serving perfect companion to this volume).

I hope that everyone will be over once the pleasant experience of having a good guide in a museum or an exhibition, or a trip and have enjoyed their good work while you learned a lot. Well that's exactly the book.

We in this article about the inventions that were made by "accident." PENICILLIN




The discovery of penicillin by Alexander Fleming is a clear example. Occurred in 1928 when he left a culture plate of staphylococci bacteria to the table in his laboratory and left for two weeks vacation. On his return he found that the crop had been contaminated with a fungus that prevented the bacteria grow. He had discovered the antibiotic









POST-IT NOTES
In 1970, chemist Spencer Silver was working on developing a very strong adhesive, in the 3M research laboratories. But he could not but an adhesive that did not hit much. By separating two pieces of pasted paper, he realized that the glue was both a paper and on the other, it seemed a pretty useless invention. Four years later, one of his colleagues who sang in the choir of the church had a brilliant idea. Always using bookmarks to mark pages in the songbook, but all the while you fell. Then, it occurred put them a layer of paste of Spencer. As if by magic, no longer moved or broken pages when removing them. They were born post-it notes. Currently, he is one of the best selling office supplies. CELLOPHANE


The idea of \u200b\u200bcellophane wrap transparent paper over known, appeared in the mind of a Swiss textile engineer, Jacques Brandenberger as he sat at table in a restaurant. Seeing that a guest had been spilled wine and had stained the whole cloth, he returned to his lab convinced that he could discover any way to cover the canvas with a transparent layer of impermeable back. He made many experiments with different materials and one of the times, applied to the fabric a viscous liquid. The experiment failed because the fabric was all stiff and brittle. However, Brandenberger realized that the layer could be separated out and remain as a transparent sheet that could have other applications. By 1908, developed a machine that produced a viscous transparent sheets which he called cellophane. VELCRO


The Velcro was invented in 1941 by Swiss engineer George de Mestral. The idea came to him when walking in the Alps to look at how to beat the spikelets of Setaria on your clothes and hair of the dog. Setaria examined under the microscope and decided to design a unique end copying the microscopic hooks spikelets. Mestral Although initially did not have much support and even laughed at him, stood his ground. Using the method of trial and error, found that the nylon, sewn with infrared beams, was about resistant hooks that stuck very easily to a nylon cloth smooth and velvety. Velcro name comes from the French velours (velvet) and English crochet (hook).






Luck is not enough in these key findings. Scientists and inventors have to have an open mind and prepared to detect and understand the importance of those unforeseen incidents and use them constructively. As he said in his famous French scientist Louis Pasteur: "In the field of observation, chance favors only the prepared mind."

Spanish astronomers discovered a nebula in an extraordinary way


Since in 1785 the British astronomer William Herschel called 'planetary nebula' to certain hot gas clouds and bright , astronomers have continued to be amazed by the physical properties and the beauty of these objects. planetary nebulae are a late stage in the evolution of most stars in the universe .
A new study of the Milky Way made from the observatories of the Instituto de Astrofisica de Canarias (IAC) has allowed to reveal this extraordinary cosmic object called Nebula Necklace, which could provide important clues for understanding the final evolution of stars like the Sun
The image presented is Nordic Optical Telescope (NOT) the Observatory Roque de los Muchachos (La Palma) and shows emission from ionized oxygen coded in green, the ionized nitrogen in red and Hydrogen in blue.
