Biodiversity is quite simply the variety of life on Earth, and as such is a profoundly important component of sustainability. Biodiversity has strong feedback links to other aspects of sustainability including: adaptation to climate change and limitation of its effects; effective water management; creation and maintenance of resilient communities; and enhancement of public health. ICLEI is aware that good biodiversity management has a variety of ecological, social and economic benefits. This awareness...

Seguramente haz escuchado acerca de El, en las historias de Semana Santa, Navidad o en los cuentos de tu abuelita…. no lo dudo. Pues El no es un simple historia o cuento de hadas, El es tan real como el hecho que me llamo Josué Rendón. La pregunta es… ¿realmente lo conoces o solo haz oido de el? Este es un gran video resaltando un gran mensaje, con partes de una gran y famosa prédica impartida por el Dr. Shadrach Meshach (S.M.) Lockridge. Esto es lo que dice: The...

Letra: I'm sleeping alone on this cold concrete floor Another sad night in this sad robot war On Judgment Day man and machine did collide But even though billions of people have died Somewhere out there tonight You're hugging your rifle so tight I'll find you, somehow, someway In the rubble that once was L.A. I'll be back, no man no machine Can keep me from you, Ill always be true I'll be back, to finish the fight And say "hasta la vista" to this lonely night This vow I...

The high-level meeting on Africa?s development needs will take place at United Nations headquarters in New York on 22 September 2008. The theme of the meeting is: ?Africa?s development needs: state of implementation of various commitments, challenges and the way forward.? The meeting takes place at a time of both promise and challenge for the continent. While on the one hand many African countries have shown strong GDP growth and progress on the MDGs over the last few years, rising world prices for...

El encierro en casa me hace extrañar mucho las montañas... he estado sintiendo nostalgia estos días, pero sé que no será para siempre. Mi salud esta mejorando y la herida parece un gran arañón; pero el proceso es lento, y sé que dentro de poco me voy a tener que someter a otra operación... Bueno! así es la vida y hay que ver todo por el lado positivo. No podré viajar más que en mi mente, pero mis viajes imaginarios son muy...

How safe is Peru? How dangerous are pitbulls? Got an email from my mom a while back, loosely translated: "… Two friends of mine were thinking about visiting Peru. They’ve planned out their trip to Lima, Machu Picchu, and Cusco, and have already bought their tickets. But someone told them Peru is dangerous, and then they also read that Peru is dangerous on some government website. Now they’re thinking about canceling their trip, what should they do?" So is Peru dangerous in...

Estoy indeciso. No se cual de los dos textos es el más interesante que he leído el día de hoy. El primero son los párrafos iniciales de la columna de David Brooks en el New York Times que se titula In Praise of Dullness (ver aquí texto completo). En el editorial, Brooks analiza las cualidades que tienden a tener los CEOs más exitosos. Should C.E.O.?s read novels? The question seems to answer itself. After all, C.E.O.?s work with people all day. Novel-reading should...

For the record, I actually wrote this the same day I wrote the previous post. And as well many of you know that I frequent the subject?s of Asia (the middle east and Israel) and assorted topics. While running for President, Obama indicated that he would continue to be supportive of Israel in the same manner of prior administrations. Strange this is that the current agreement on the table via the Annapolis accord suggest a two state solution. However, from a historical perspective this implies that he...

photo by Leo Castillo I am a man and I enjoy yoga. I make no apologies. I am accustomed to the Vinyasa style of yoga but have been coaxed into trying Bikram Yoga for the past couple months. For those unfamiliar with this world, Bikram Yoga is a class of 26 poses carried out in a room heated to 105°F at 40% humidity. If you’ve never tried it, perhaps these impressions will give you an idea of what you could expect. Pros: 1. It’s a great cardiovascular workout. Especially during the...

** El hilo de la vida I El indiferente silencio de la tierra, el indiferente sonido del mar, ambos transmiten un mensaje de un único sentido para mí: ? Distantes, distantes, nos mantenemos distantes, entonces permanece también tú distante, amarrado al lazo perfecto de la soledad interior; nosotros no te atamos; pero ¿quién te liberará de tus propias cadenas? ¿Qué corazón tocará el tuyo? ¿Qué mano?? Y a veces soy...

I was checking on the veracity of a Winston Churchill quote that I wanted to use for a post and I found a collection of them in the net. Just becasue it is Saturday, and I want to rest, I thought that after the hectic two weeks we had we can use a break of rationality. In no particular order, and not quite up to your imagination on why I selected them and why do I think them relevant for this blog. On this blog style The farther backward you can look, the farther forward you can see. On Venezuelan...

Yo no juego DotA, así que les dejo esto que recibí. by Neha Nair We all know that you founded and run DotA-Allstars.com, but who really is Pendragon? I think I'll answer this question in two parts; first - who I am as a person, and second, who am I in the DotA world. Who I am as a person is pretty easy for me. I'm 22 years old. I'm a pretty hardcore gamer - I got my gaming start in MMOs playing Everquest, moved on to Diablo 2, then DotA, then WoW, then DotA again....

Hace unas semanas comentaba sobre la importancia de las ideas de Mayer Zald para el estudio de los movimientos sociales, y recomendaba algunos de sus textos, entre ellos aquel con John McCarthy, ?The Enduring Vitality of the Resource Mobilization Theory of Social Movements?. Es un texto particularmente valioso, porque es relativamente reciente, y rebate explícitamente las críticas que la teoría ha recibido a lo largo de los años (muchas de ellas resultado de su...
