Trainspotting the film!!!...
Well!!!.. Trainspotting is a 1996 British drama film directed by Danny Boyle based on the novel of the same name by Irvine Welsh.
This movie follows a group of heroin addicts in a late 1980s economically depressed area of Edinburgh and their passage through life.
The film stars when Ewan McGregor as Mark Renton, Ewen Bremner as Spud, Jonny Lee Miller as Sick Boy, Kevin McKidd as Tommy, Robert Carlyle as Begbie, and Kelly Macdonald as Diane. Author Irvine Welsh also has a cameo appearance as hapless drug dealer Mikey Forrester....
"The Academy Award-nominated screenplay, by John Hodge, was adapted from Welsh's novel. It does not contain any references to the hobby of train spotting. The title is a reference to an episode in the original book (not included in the film) where Begbie and Renton meet "an auld drunkard" who turns out to be Begbie's estranged father, in the disused Leith Central railway station, which they are visiting to use as a toilet. He asks them if they are "trainspottin'."
Beyond drug addiction, other concurrent themes in the film are exploration of the urban poverty and squalor in "culturally rich" Edinburgh."
The film has been ranked 10th spot by the British Film Institute (BFI) in its list of Top 100 British films of all time. In 2004 the film was voted the best Scottish film of all time.
"Choose life. Choose a job. Choose a career. Choose a family. Choose a fucking big television, Choose washing machines, cars, compact disc players, and electrical tin openers. Choose good health, low cholesterol and dental insurance. Choose fixed- interest mortgage repayments. Choose a starter home. Choose your friends. Choose leisure wear and matching luggage. Choose a three piece suite on hire purchase in a range of fucking fabrics. Choose DIY and wondering who you are on a Sunday morning. Choose sitting on that couch watching mind-numbing sprit- crushing game shows, stuffing fucking junk food into your mouth. Choose rotting away at the end of it all, pishing you last in a miserable home, nothing more than an embarrassment to the selfish, fucked-up brats you have spawned to replace yourself. Choose your future. Choose life... But why would I want to do a thing like that?..." I chose not to choose life: I chose something else. And the reasons? There are no reasons. Who need reasons when you've got heroin?... Renton of trainspotting..
OKOK!!... One day, Renton decides to quit heroin. He prepares for heroin withdrawal by acquiring soups, pornography, Valium and buckets for vomit, urine, faeces as well as nailing wooden planks over the door. Realising he needs one last high,.... Gritty’ is probably the most used adjectives to describe Trainspotting, teh film that shocks with its graphic portrayal of the lives of a group of Scottish men and their addictions. This isn’t a film for the faint-hearted, though, because it will take a strong stomach to watch as the characters spiral out of control. In Edinburgh, a group of low-life friends are in the depths of a heroin-induced lifestyle. Renton appears to be the only one who genuinely wants to clean up his life and be rehabilitated into society. This proves difficult, though, as his friend continue to drag him down.... What you may expect when reading the plot is a film condoning the use of drugs but within ten minutes of watching you’ll realise you’re watching the heartbreaking story of the destruction of these young men at the hands of their own deadly decisions. Just as it seems things can’t get any worse, Renton and his friends sink to new depths of depravity.

Religulous - The Thruth Is Near

This is a documentary directed by Larry Charles and starring Bill Maher, the name of the movie comes from the words "religion" and "ridiculous" which gives a clearer idea of what´s the documentary.
From the beginning Mather shows what´s his point of view about the religion, for example he says "I think that tje religion is harmful for the humanity progress..."and during all the movie he travel around different places questioning people about what´s their opinion about cristianism, catolicism, judaism, etcetera, whatever religion belong them.
In the course of his travel he meets a lot of so-called "God´s sent" and spiritual leaders that seems that only they are there for advantaging of the persons whom believe that has the answers for all the questions.
Maher makes the questions that left unanswered to the supposed enlightened believers, asking questions while extremely strong and direct against people's beliefs, demonstrating not only that their religion is based on pure lies if not that they themselves as supposed representatives of this know the correct information and they contardict
This message conveyed by the movie's great, because we are called to be free in our minds and take responsibility for our own actions instead of trying to deposit of the burden in a God who will most likely not even listening to us.
It also makes us to doubt, because the knowledge comes from the doubt and not to accept absolute truths that are not based on anything.

Hall or Ween?

Do you remember being a child? Waiting for all special days marked on calendars… Well I just have to admit, one of them was Halloween. You know, this special time when kids get dressed in costumes inspired by monsters, vampires, werewolves, extraterrestrials, etc.
So, I used to plan for long time my one-day personality, got ready for the day and left home to collect a lot of candies and maybe, just maybe some chocolates.
Later, as I grow up, I realized that being a Mexican means that it could be hard to deal with the fact this tradition is not ours. That is completely true but, anyway, do you think it would be wrong just having some fun and not taking it too serious?
Whatever it’d be your thoughts, I'd say it should be a matter of tolerance and peaceful coexistences. What would be your advice?

Walking down Champ-of-Mars...

Imagine a sunny day, walking down Champ-de-Mars, without any kind of concern. There you are and your thoughts, enough time to share just with yourself.
Randomly, you just lift up your face and in the distance you might distinguish this pyramidal shape. All feelings living in the world come directly to you. Just a few seconds to stop and get your breath back.
A great man-built structure appears right in front of your eyes; people are used to calling it as Eiffel tower. You have seen it at magazines since you were a child, so you take your time to watch it carefully.
As you advance some steps, you stop on and read a steel-sheet: “Prepared for the International Exhibition of Paris of 1889 it has stayed to present in the heart of people becoming the main icon of French country and culture”.
So, now you feel relieved, you know you were waiting for it. It’s time to continue walking…

The Other Guys (USA, 2010)
I went to the movie Theatre last night to watch "The Other Guys", a film performed by Will Ferrell, Mark Wahlberg, Eva Mendes, Michael Keaton, Steve Coogan, Ray Stevenson, Samuel L. Jackson, Dwayne Johnson and others. I Thought that it would be a funny movie but i was wrong. The experience was so dissapointed. The only thing that I can recommend about this movie is Eva Mendes because she is sexy and pretty. At the end of the movie appeared interesting information about the money that the US goverment give to international corporations last year. Next week i´m going to watch "Biutiful" by Iñarritu, I think it will be a better experience
What about traditions in Mexico?

Are Behemoth one of the most extreme metal band right now?
Behemoth is a Polish blackened death metal band from Gdansk, formed in 1991. They are considered to have played polish estreme metal underground.
This band grows in popularity, they have attracted some unwanted followers. Although they're recognized mostly for their musical abilities, Behemoth's controversial views on occultism and christianity, where laws prohibit religiously offensive acts.
In 1990s, the band played a great black metal style with heathen lyrical content, but soon changed to that of occult and thelemic themes written by their lead vocalist Negal and Krzysztof Azarewicz.
With the 1999 release of Satanica, the band showed their presence in the blackened metal scene, while retaining their own signature style characterized by the drum work of Inferno.
In adition... in july 2007 the All-Polish Committee for Defense Against Sects distributed a list of bands that allegedly promote satanism and murder to many Polish officials. Critics of this policy primarily see this as a violation of free speech, with the most scathing criticism generally emanating from within the metal community.
For someone that enoy of this type of music here you can buy their discs:

Arctic Monkeys
Arctic Monkeys are an English alternative rock band from High Green, Sheffield, England. It was formed in 2002, by Alex Turner, lead vocals and guitar, Jamie Cook with the guitar, Nick O'Malley, bass guitar and backing vocals, Matt Helders, drums and also backing vocals, and John Ashton as a touring member at the keyboard, guitar, and backing vocals.
Their first album was Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not, it was released in 2006 and became in the fastest-selling debut album in British music history, since then the band have released only two more albums: Favourite Worst Nightmare 2007 and Humbug 2009.
Alex and Jamie started with their guitars, which were Christmas’s presents, and later they started to play with a couple of schoolmates. And when they recorded their first singles, they gave some copies to their friends, which made them arrive to the internet without knowing. Suddenly they were at the radio and TV, so they owe their fame to MySpace and other web pages.
Their lyrics talk about social reality, their culture and work class, this has made some politicians and journalists use their words to talk about recent events and political situations.
Arctic Monkeys are coming to Mexico on April 21st, just one day after Muse
Resident evil
Resident Evil made its debut on 1996 on Sony PlayStation and later on Sega Saturn. The story goes around the experiments that start a pharmaceutical company called Umbrella, which uses humans and animals to test viruses that eventually causes severe alterations but suddenly they lose control and some of those who were affected escape to the forest and then they start to attack people.
This game fits in the survival horror genre, which makes you find the way to stay alive dealing with enemies, and puzzles.
Well, that’s all I know about this new hobby that I found thanks to my friend, so during this long
weekend I’ll figure out if I’m good at this, and if I don’t, I’ll go back to the old but easy Mario BrosThursday, March 11, 2010
Activities for being closer to happiness
Happiness is a feeling difficult to describe, however everybody wants to be happy and they look for and find happiness in different ways (persons, places, pets, hobbies). What activities do you think are better for feeling happy?‘Stressed people’ is a description that has been being used over the past few years, this condition is due to demanding jobs, fast style of life and bad habits. All these things are provoking we forget or not keeping our mind on the most important thing, to be happy. The movement ‘being closer to happiness’ is aimed at individuals of all ages and is intended for proposing ways of making people feel better emotionally.
Some of the activities that this promotion suggests are: to have a local council (with professionals) in order to chat about personal and community problems, to organise a fair of pet adoption, to help homeless children, to connect citizens to their area through contests, parties and ecological, educational, cultural, social and/or sport events.
In conclusion, nowadays is common that people of the same neighbourhood are not in touch and that is the reason why they usually seek to socialise on Internet. In my opinion is easier to find happiness sharing moments in face-to-face activities.
