Open letter asks King of Spain not to sign decree allowing aborted babies to be ground up

Wed, 08 Oct 2008 04:14:57 GMT

Madrid, Oct 7, 2008 / 06:35 am (CNA).- Father Joan Manuel Serra, a priest of the Diocese of Sant Feliu de Llobregat, has asked King Juan Carlos of Spain not to sign a royal decree that would modify mortuary policies and would make it legal to use “baby crushing machines” that would be used on the remains of babies aborted up to the seventh month of pregnancy in abortion clinics.

after the scandal of the Ginemedex Clinic, where it was discovered that blenders were being used to cover up illegal late-term abortions, the government, “with the supposed support of the main opposition party,” has proposed changing the norms for mortuaries “so that the ‘remains’ of an abortion not be considered ‘human remains of sufficient entity’ until after the 28^th week of gestation,” that is, nearly the seventh month of pregnancy.

New Discovery Refers to Christ as the 'Magician'

A team of scientists led by renowned French marine archaeologist Franck Goddio recently announced that they have found a bowl, dating to between the late 2nd century B.C. and the early 1st century A.D., that is engraved with what they believe could be the world's first known reference to Christ

The full engraving on the bowl reads, "DIA CHRSTOU O GOISTAIS," which has been interpreted by the excavation team to mean either, "by Christ the magician" or, "the magician by Christ."

"It could very well be a reference to Jesus Christ, in that he was once the primary exponent of white magic," Goddio, co-founder of the Oxford Center of Maritime Archaeology, said

found the object during an excavation of the underwater ruins of Alexandria's ancient great harbor. The Egyptian site also includes the now submerged island of Antirhodos

The bowl is currently on public display in the exhibit "Egypt's Sunken Treasures" at the Matadero Cultural Center in Madrid, Spain, until November 15. MSNBC

Your Robotic Friend, The Humanoid Robot

Why, then, do we remain fascinated by humanoid robots?

Europeans and Americans prefer their robots to look like machines

The Japanese, on the other hand, are very comfortable with humanoid robots

Some robot friends

Reem-A, a life-size humanoid robot can recognise casual questions and commands, hold simple objects and stop for obstacles in its path

ARMAR is more of a geeky housemate

Maggie was designed by the University Carlos III in Madrid to be a sociable robot.

It tries to understand gestures and touch through a touch screen

Learning hard lessons

Casimiro is another robot, though not mobile, designed for social interactions. Here, the researchers have focused on the face, teaching the robot to respond to people with a range of expressions

Ultimately, with enough sophistication, social robots will be able to act as a comforting, animated presence for children or the elderly, combining the roles of companion with that of assistant.

Gran victoria del Real Madrid en Rusia

Hoy la gente no estará para nada receptiva con tus bromas, Aries, por lo tanto mejor mantén un perfil bajo. Escucha más que hablar, e intenta mantener tu sarcasmo al mínimo. Posiblemente estén más serios, especialmente al tratarse de sus emociones. Sé disciplinada con todo lo que hagas y muy sensible con la noción del tiempo. Nuestra estadía en la Tierra es bastante corta.

"Lo verdaderamente atroz es que aún haya gente que piensa que todo ha de seguir como lo dejó su Caudillo"

El coordinador del Grupo para la Recuperación de la Memoria Histórica (GPRMH), Matías Alonso, respondió duramente al presidente de Nuevas Generaciones de Madrid, Pablo Casado, quien durante el congreso regional de los populares acusó a los jóvenes “de izquierdas” de ser unos “carcas” por preocuparse por la memoria histórica. Alonso aseguró que los jóvenes españoles no están “obsesionados” con el tema, sino que rechazan “pacíficamente” tanto la guerra como la dictadura. “Lo verdaderamente atroz es que aún haya gente como Casado que piensen que todo ha de seguir como lo dejó su Caudillo”, lamentó.

Desde Valencia, Matías Alonso, coordinador del Grupo para la Recuperación de la Memoria Histórica (GPRMH), le respondió que “no es verdad que los jóvenes españoles vivan obsesionados por nada de eso, rechazan pacíficamente no solo la guerra, sino la dictadura que sufrió España”.

Europeans on left and right ridicule U.S. money meltdown

LONDON -- It's a rare day when finance officials, leftist intellectuals and ordinary salespeople can agree on something. But the economic meltdown that wrought its wrath from Rome to Madrid to Berlin this week brought Europeans together in a harsh chorus of condemnation of the excess and disarray on Wall Street.

The finance minister of Italy's conservative and pro-U.S. government warned of nothing less than a systemic breakdown. Giulio Tremonti excoriated the "voracious selfishness" of speculators and "stupid sluggishness" of regulators. And he singled out Alan Greenspan, the former chairman of the U.S. Federal Reserve, with startling scorn.

Consejos sobre como interpretar nuestras tasaciones online

Ten en cuenta que los anexos como: trasteros, terrazas, plazas de garaje, jardines, piscinas,... todavía no se estan valorando activamente, aunque se reflejan indirectamente en el precio. En las próximas versiones de la tasación incorporaremos al cálculo nuevos parámetros.

Esta tasación online sólo tiene en cuenta precios de oferta -lo que los propietarios piden por sus inmuebles en esta zona-. El precio final que se cierra a la venta suele ser inferior.

En zonas con mayor número de inmuebles o ciudades grandes, el resultado será más fiable que en zonas rurales, donde no podemos recoger tanta muestra de inmuebles.

Let Me Loose On CHELSEA

Robinho: Let me loose on Chelsea

Robinho is relishing the prospect of facing Chelsea on his Manchester City debut tomorrow.

The 24-year-old forward was due to land in Manchester in the early hours of this morning after City laid on a private jet to bring him home from Brazil, where he was on international duty, in time for the Chelsea match.

That will give him barely 24 hours to recover, along with City team-mates Elano, Jo and Argentine Pablo Zabaleta, who were also on the flight.

But City boss Mark Hughes said Robinho had made a point of saying how much he was looking forward to facing the club who came so close to signing him from Real Madrid - only to be gazumped by City's £32.5million bid.

Hughes said: 'On the day I met him when he signed, one of the first things he said was he can't wait for the game against Chelsea so that's a good sign.

City's takeover by the Abu Dhabi United Group has put the club right up alongside Roman Abramovich's Chelsea in spending terms.
