Snow in the mountains of Palencia by Ricardo Fernández

Photo: Ricardo Fernández Vañes

few days I've been wanting to get the camera to show you the snowy landscape of the mountains of Palencia. Unfortunately, these months when I leave home at about 7.30 am and still dark when I come back at 19.30 and is quite dark. So, a few photos I can do. Luckily, my friend Ricardo Fernandez, a native of Barruelo of Santullán and lover of snow has given me these pictures, who took the other day during one of his walks in the mountains, in particular the Collada.

From here, how could it be otherwise, I am very grateful to let me share with you all @ s. Of course I also made a short video. The first is his voice, that of Ricardo, I say.

New Theories on the cross without name


here comes from

Okay, what you see is what I imagined when neighbors told me about a stone cross with rounded shapes and a small crucifix carved in center. When some said they thought I remember an inscription in Roman numerals, I immediately came to mind the image of a rash or the remains of an ancient shrine, the kind that has long formed part of the landscape and used to meet the outskirts of villages, along a road.

not occurred to me, preoccupied as it was listening to the story, ask them to draw me a stone cross. Yesterday I did and Angel (Gelin) , hunter, observer and expert man of the mountain was encouraged to paint the above cross. I fully trust what you drew, I am convinced that you've seen more than a hundred times and very very closely. When I saw the result of drawing I was shocked, because he had nothing to do with the image that I had done ... Incidentally, Gelin not remember that the cross had nothing written in Roman numerals. Here's his picture.


obviously this picture reminds me clearly to others, to "tombstones" here, for example, you can see several. This morning I showed the picture to my friend Pedro Luis Huerta, a historian, and fully agrees with the latter assessment.

Obviously, I have no idea what time it could go back, but if it really was a wake, the theory of the death of the beggar, in my opinion, is gaining strength. Perhaps it was not made just for him because it was quite common in these cases reuse pieces of the past, but it is very likely that if you place it in your memory ... And, as I said my grandmother, "where there's smoke there is fire" and all legends have some truth.


Note: Yesterday I forgot to comment, but the idea of \u200b\u200bthis story suggested to me Isis, the information made available to me from his grandmother, Caesarea, his mother, Elisa, his aunt, Marie and her father, Gelinas. THANKS to everyone!!

Fare Well Speach For The Students

portraits of old, the cross without name



Halfway between Folder and Barrio de San Pedro. Towards this village. On the left side of the road. Camouflaged by the leaves, brambles and the brush, lies a battered old cross. Of those who, for years, filled the cemeteries of many people in Spain. Forged iron with a small white porcelain plate in the center. Is this a cross with no name, no date, or even a simple epitaph. Only a veiled complaint or threat, expressing outrage non-contained: "steal the stone and break it now. Poor people there. Ladrones" .

They

neighbors, young and old who, until two decades ago, was in that place "pretty" stone cross shape rounded, with a small drawing, carving or cross in the center. It was, they say the elderly, a cross old "was always there" . Some believe to remember that was inscribed with a date in Roman numerals. Nobody can tell. What they do know and remember with precision is that a cold winter morning, someone took the stone cross. Maybe now serves as a coat stand in good or complete home treasures who knows what private collection ... Instead, a resident of Barrio San Pedro, placed the iron, but who or what to remember those crosses?

legend or theory extended muuuuuuuuuuuchos says it does, muuuuuuuuuuuchos years ... in times of great-Aunt of Paca or even before, a man whose name is unknown accruing wandered for months through the region. Someone who was born with ill fortune, or perhaps someone a disgrace forever condemned to exile for the homeless. "Poor" , count, "a bum" , who wandered for alms houses and livelihood. A man with nothing to give and nothing to lose, who suffered, yes, the harsh winter in the mountains and ice killed at the roadside between Folder and neighborhood San Pedro. Some neighbors charitable, pious soul, or perhaps someone who knew the true story of the beggar, placed there in his memory, the stone cross.


Some people just do not believe this story, "a poor - say - not brought a cross so luxurious" . Maybe ... Perhaps it was not just a car accident or the result of a brawl. Perhaps this cross, with Roman numerals, not someone but something remembered. Maybe it was just a brand, a milestone, a cruise or a shrine ... You'll probably never, ever, get to unravel the mystery of the cross. Like so many other stories of the oral tradition of our people continue to pass down through families, from grandparents to grandchildren ... until, in one way or another, end up lost in the trunk full of memories.

Feelings After Ivf Transfer

Living AR & PA



I already commented in the previous post that these months would be a bit complicated. Some of you have asked, which I appreciate, where I've been stuck in recent weeks. Well, I returned to my land, Valladolid, but not to be with my family, which I would have liked, but to work ... It was hard, but, I think, now, in retrospect, I can say it was worth.

I tell you, we have been at the Seventh International Fair AR & PA Heritage Restoration and Management. I say we, because I have not been alone. I was accompanied by Tom and Mary, two companions. Our task was none other than moving the environment through Fair Canal Heritage , our Internet TV. Mary took care of Facebook, twitter and update the website and Tom and I record and edit news.

There were moments of stress and tension ... because there were plenty of activities to be developed in parallel and we did not supply ... But, well, eventually we harness the work, and here I leave a small sample ... for you to understand what I've been doing. I recalled a few days old days, in which a reporter was witty ... ;-) hehe

1. So we started: with a lot of encouragement, with good voice and excited.


2. Just follow: pasándonoslo big, with activities for children.


3. So just: exhausted, without a voice and a cold with terror ... ;-)


Note: The main picture is of Maria Jimenez, my partner, and edit the videos, was in charge of Education (Eduardo Machado) - .) If you still like to see more, you can find here. Incidentally, I hope to go slowly catching up with your blogs ...

Protein Powder On Phase 1 ?

(A04) Why homeopathy works?

PUM! 5-ton anvil falls on the blog! What was scary to be cast in this space devoted to reason, under the banner of irrationality?

My name is Jorge G. computing profession, and my two good friends and devoted student of psychology and today we will explain why homeopathy works, or put another way, today we will talk about Psychoneuroimmunology and how the famous placebo effect, so Fashion in the discussions on the subject.

The Psychoneuroimmunology is a branch of psychology and biology of the most recent, considering initiated in 1975 by Professor Robert Ader of the University of Rochester (New York), who studies the relationship of psychological processes in the immune system.

This specialty of science has been devoted to the investigation of how the nervous system (SN) and the endocrine system (SE) act as modulators Immune System (SI) and vice versa, through neurotransmitters (SN) and hormones ( SE), as well as through the hypothalamus, brain center essential in establishing communication between the immune system, SN and SE.

Through this research has come to the evidence also establishes an interaction between the immune system and behavior, so that behavioral factors can affect immune function and vice versa, substances released during immune responses can modulate various aspects of behavior.

This is evident in the day day of the world, when constipated or grab a croquette last dinner we began to feel ill on the morning of Sunday, no one feels like running and dancing, if not more good to snuggle in bed (this set of symptoms is known in jargon as sickness Behavior). It could be argued that all these symptoms puedrían simply be consequences of weak state of the organism, but in reality it is a strategy of our body directed solely to facilitate recovery devoting all of our "resources" to that goal, all induced by cytokines released by immune cells in the central SN.

Thus, we know that, get sick it affects our behavior. But can our behavior affect our recovery? According to research in this field, yes.

The experiment to prove it is simple, we need only use the very handy classical conditioning. Through this experiment it was found that the simple presentation of a neutral stimulus was capable of triggering an immune response, if the neutral stimulus was previously presented with a antigen (substance that triggers the formation of antibodies), through this process of conditioning the neutral stimulus becomes a conditioned stimulus and the response to his presentation becomes a conditioned response. Which explains how a totally innocuous agent, for example, an ultra-clean glass of water could trigger an immune response. Conditioned immunosuppression, which is what has been called the invention has been quite effective in the treatment of multiple sclerosis and lupus erythematosus, for improving symptoms associated with these diseases.

In the same line of research has studied the characteristics of behavior and personality of individuals and affective or emotional states may also modulate the immune system functional state, one of the areas of study that has aroused most interest focusing on the role that psychological and social factors can play in the progression or referral of certain diseases such as cancer, showing that there is a higher survival rate in patients with malignant melanoma metastasis stage and in women with breast cancer who had received training in psychotherapy or relaxation, stress afrontacimento psychosocial support , also found increased immune activity.


In short, believe that something is going to heal, be happy and away from stress, activates the immune system to help improve the symptoms of an illness, something known as placebo effect.

So far no "medicine" homeopathic has been able to overcome a double-blind test , showing that its effectiveness will have the effect over placebo. This means that any fervent believer of homeopathy has an equal chance of cure of a condition to take their miracle cure that drinking a glass of tap water, as long as it continues to believe he is taking his "medicine." For those less gullible or better informed, I encourage them, love to go to the doctor, if they seek to facilitate its recovery remain calm, relaxed and entertained, which have the same effect but checkout!

hope I have not bored and everything I hope I expressed myself clearly and have committed no error. For writing this article I went to both items in the linked wikipedia, and the books of Psychobiology and Basic Principles of the physiology of behavior, both texts of the UNED.

Greetings!

Ursicinus Martínez, Ursi: A simple man, a genius Abstract


I think I came to admire him, even before knowing. He had seen some of his work and had heard on the radio bulletin, demanding the reopening of the museum in Aguilar de Campo. The year was 2003 and then I found a good man. I later discovered that Ursicinus Martinez Ursi, for friends, was much more than that.

The first time I spoke with him was to write an article. I was, how could it be otherwise in his studio, working as usual. Carved a rare material on it: alabaster. Was putting the finishing touches to the silhouette of the Virgin on a cluster of clouds.

I was impressed by his simplicity, his kindness, his eyes alert, full of life, strength ... I think that once connected. I remember I stole all afternoon. We sat next to his desk surrounded by chisels and chisel, the smell of sawdust and wood, which is confusing at times with the aroma of black snuff rolling. He offered me one and so, as if she knew of life, began to reel off pieces of her story of her childhood in Villabellaco of his youth in the mine, his travels, his family, friends ... I told thousands of anecdotes, such as the ticket 100 pesetas, which later hear him tell hundreds of times.

next day took me to his museum, but before I opened the door of his house, he offered me coffee and introduced me to his wife, Angela. A discreet woman, kind, of course, your support, your support in the shadow ...

Entering the museum Ursi, who was then closed, was for me to realize something as many times desired. It was as if they came into a world full of fantasy, imagination ... In a utopian world, where old elms, sick, recovered life.

suppose that anyone who has visited the museum will have their favorite piece. The truth is that it is very difficult to choose, but my eyes were fixed from the first moment in its knotted trunk. Almost made me believe, I had no mystery, who planted trees while still green and growing gave them the right way, then it was only a matter of watering, caring and hope. Ursi, so, you loved to joke, I think I enjoyed hearing people's comments, noting he was stunned by its twisted trees, their "jokes" as he called them.

After that first contact I have visited the museum over two dozen times and always find something new, surprising. Ursi I am convinced that was a true genius, and as such left a bit of himself in each of his works. I still have that comfort, because we have made so many conversations going slopes, so many memories, so many projects ... I feel I owe something. I know, yes, every time you cross the threshold of the museum, I feel there, as always, with his hands hardened by work, rolling his snuff and his everlasting smile. Farewell, friend, farewell, Ursi.

LISTEN TO THE STORY ISSUED AGUILAR RADIO FM in 2004 (if you like ;-)


Note: I wrote this text Carrión newspaper die shortly Ursi (2007), was never published. The report, aired on Radio FM Aguilar in 2004, if I remember correctly, it was with the help of Carlos. Much has happened since then, Ursi, is gone, own work, and all his legacy. If you approach Aguilar de Campo, do not forget to visit the museum . Now it is open.

"The Game of Death." Why obey?

A French documentary (subtitled in English) explaining teleconcurso as a culture of death and torture, following the Milgram experiment, according to which any individual could violate a pain to another, if authority ordered it considers legitimate. Decades later, Milgram pattern provides us with new findings: we have become more obedient. It explains the "state agent", "types of exhortation" or "safety valves" through 80 cases.


For this experience were recruited 80 volunteers who had never participated in a TV contest, which they believed they were going to participate in a pilot program called entertainment "Xtreme Zone", in which a participant will undergo a round of questions and receive a "punishment" for every wrong answer.

The result was surprising: while one of the contestants, who actually was an actor, simulated cries of pain to stop torture, eight out of ten participants met until the final order of the host downloads coming to power 20 to 460 volts.

"People never have obeyed our instructions if you do not trust who asked him. I think they thought 'television knows his stuff' ",

The film caused controversy at the hearing and opened several discussions on how television affects people and their consequences.

The experiment is based on the work of psychologist Stanley Milgram, who discovered that much of the common people accept hazardous administer electric shocks to other people, if you ordered a scientist appearance of authority on the subject.
