Day 111/365: TV News, originally uploaded by olga_sgr!. Sometimes when I watch the news I feel like my head will burn up and explode. We have been chatting about how wonderful holidays are, but today an Australian young man, who had saved up to come to Greece on vacation, passed away in a hospital after being beaten to death by two bouncers outside some club in our wonderful, cosmopolitan, hip and glamorous island of Myconos. This makes me wanna jump out of my skin one minute and the next it makes...

Globalization. I am an immigrant to this great country, but I did become an American. For a long time I have been telling people how much better the education system is in Colombia compared to here, but people always gave me a puzzled look and moved along. I am not sure if it is the National Geographic specials in India’s and China’s economy, or having read The World is Flat by Thomas L. Friedman, but the topic that worried me the most about globalization is education. It seems I am not...

I help clients deal with very personal and pertinent challenges. A common area of concern for many clients involves their job and/or professional life. Naturally, the majority of us want to be fulfilled and stimulated in our work, but the tricky part is finding out what that fulfillment and stimulation means to us.

These bodies and dreams open possibilities for the women,...

Una lista de las 25 bandas que hacían que molara América de nuevo, me dio la idea. Pero ¿qué es lo que mas se escucha en Internet realmente? Una referencia podría ser Last.fm, pero que yo sepa no tienen una lista de los scrobblings generales sino semanales, así que durante un par de días me he currado una lista con algunos de los grupos con más reproducciones. Se me puede haber pasado alguno, pero por los datos semanales parece bastante fidedigna, y...

He estado razonando sobre la coveniencia de tener un plan maestro q quizas ni llegue a cumplir. Quizas no sea demasiado concebirlo. Pero, la vida de verdad deja que la planees? No lo sé.

Y hay una parte en particular, en la que se habla que " Cuando todo sigue un plan, las personas estan tranquilas. Cuando las cosas salen del plan, entran en pánico. Por...

Studying I've been sitting here, staring at my notes for an hour, I am too tired to keep studying. Yet, I am wide awake and can't go to sleep. Don't know what to do. So, by default I am here writing, blogging, if you will. By the way life is good, I stay busy, I get up, change diapers, get ready for work, commute, get to work, make coffee, read my email, work on whatever is going on at the office, (lately is fixing bugs in the code) and then get home, have dinner, put the kids to bed, and...

Last night my wife and I had a "date night". It was great - dinner at Altruda's (great Italian place for you non-Knoxvillians), then went to Downtown West to see the new Helen Hunt/Bette Midler movie. I haven't been to Downtown West in years, so it was fun to see the old haunt again. I remember seeing Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan there, lo these many years ago - and also Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country with Big Orange Michael. But I digress. The movie was over around 10pm, and...

En Up to the Minute, with C.G. Salgado el 2008.07.17

I just finished reading a commentary by Glenn Beck where he expresses his views on how the Colombian military fooled the FARC when rescuing fifteen hostages, including Ingrid Betancourt. That's right, the military personnel had a Che Guevara T-Shirt, and that is how the terrorists knew that they were dealing with their own people and not government and/or military. This brings me to the same question presented by Mr. Beck.....Is that the same message the young hip kids are portraying when they use...

Supertramp Logical Song When i was young, it seemed that life was so wonderful, a miracle, oh it was beautiful, magical. and all the birds in the trees, well they'd be singing so happily, joyfully, playfully watching me. but then they send me away to teach me how to be sensible, logical, responsible, practical. and they showed me a world where i could be so dependable, clinical, intellectual, cynical. there are times when all the world's asleep, the questions run too deep for such a simple man....
