Why Do Plastics Stretch?



In my 19 years I am a very studious young, athletic, responsible, free from the vices of alcohol, snuff, sex and drugs. Wow! to what to give for someone in this life. Anyway, when I told my friends I wanted to tattoo, just mad, they could not conceive how someone with my personality as "right and proper" could think of tattooing. It was then when I explain that one of the few things I really learned the American culture is the meaning of tattoos. Unfortunately

consider them here in Mexico for "Naco" and synonymous with vandalism or something. Among girls is acceptable so long as you look good and take it into a "sexy." Anyway, I explained that a tattoo is not destruction but passion. Your body is tattooed with an image that led to the death, which requires that the image is highly significant and representative of you.

My Maryland teammates have Tadu their names, their nicknames, the name of your city and your country, the name of someone close in your memory, etc ... that's why I'm seriously considering this tattoo: the Star of Vergina.



For years, archaeologists found in handmade pieces, paintings and walls throughout Greece. The related simply as a religious symbol representing perhaps the Greek Pantheon and the 4 elements of matter, hence its 16 rays.

But in 1977, Manolis Andronikos unearthed a chest during an excavation at Vergina, in the Tomb of the Kings located in the territory of the ancient Kingdom of Macedonia.

The chest was identified as the tomb of Philip II of Macedon, father of Alexander the Great. Since then, the star has been linked with the Kingdom of Macedonia, creator of one of the greatest empires of antiquity.

Just as the acronym SPQR represent the power of Rome, the Star of Vergina is the power to both Macedonia and Alexander. By this time, know my passion for the history of the great conqueror, in the personal history that makes me challenge myself every day to get closer, if not equal greatness. With this symbol on my back, I will never forget that excel in everything, be the best, do what everyone considered impossible, to reach the top, be unique and leave a legacy.

not let me forget my age, the Great and was the best commander of cavalry in the world. And I always will remember that at age 30, he had already won 3 / 4 of the known world. Are difficult to emulate feats let alone overcome. Today of course I can not emulate these feats literally, but you have to point out is the same greatness that they brought him to Alexander. So the question whose answer never leaves me satisfied and every day help me beat it, what I've done?. Every time I make it, is that I am an abyss of distance ... much to do and so little time, I'm outta here!

Angels & Demons

I hate having so much abandoned this blog that people read and write that I like. My coach tells me that I should never apologize, but just fix my mistake and is precisely what will.

In all my previous posts I wrote about Alexander the Great Alexander. However, in the U.S. since I do not have the right software to do more battles like I did (Chaeronea), I had to suspend the posts until I return to my home. In addition, his biography is extremely long and I understand that my readers get bored just reading about Alexander and more if you do not share the passion I have for their history.



Finally, progress on my blog. Today I went to see the controversial film "Angels & Demons." Like the "DaVinci Code" and all the other movies based on historical fact, partially or totally, because I like history is my passion and the cinema is the perfect way to revive this lost world for centuries.

If you've read some of my posts, despite a taste for these films, I've been quite upset by the modified content of some of them as "300" or "The Code DaVinci, "but to my surprise" Angels & Demons "is excellent. Even when you follow the same line of" The DaVinci Code, "with plots and mysteries surrounding the Catholic Church, Angels & Demons" divide and well defined facts and fiction unlike "The DaVinci Code" where both mixed and resulted in altered very convincing story for the ignorant on the subject. In watching the film, you immediately realize that is completely fictional, as opposed to "The DaVinci Code" which moved them to some serious faith.

As expected, the story once again contains symbols, codes, secret societies, plots, conspiracies and much mystery, something that appeals to the masses like magnets. The big difference with "The DaVinci Code" is the theme here is a REAL problem, not a manipulation of the facts. The eternal conflict between science and religion, these angels and demons have been beaten in battle for centuries and have caused much harm. Personally, I am in favor of science but I never abandoned my faith, although I realize that not practical as it should, my teachers call me Prepa UP "cafeteria Christian" as really look forward to the day when science God can explain the existence of God, that sounds contradictory.

I'm no fan of Dan Brown, but I must admit that Robert Langdon's character is incredibly attractive in the sense that their knowledge is so great that it gives you the power to change history and save the Church. That's a real character, he should imitate and look instead of wasting time reading vampiritos mind and do tricks.

not talk about the content of the film, did not want to ruin the trip to the movies to anyone. The only thing I left a bad taste in my mouth was the outcome of the story, it seemed very sudden and surprising though, is totally discordant with the rest of the plot. Despite this truth, I was extremely happy with the room and I saw a very interesting plot surrounded by history, art and symbolism ... just wonderful!
