Work is one of the most beautiful gifts that God has given to us

Nature.-
   These ones are some of the words of Pope Francis said during the Mass of today, May 1st, day of work, Saint Joseph the worker's day. 
"The most beautiful gift that God has given to man: the ability to create, to work, to be the makers of our own dignity.
"Work gives us dignity! Those who work have dignity, a special dignity, a personal dignity: men and women who work are dignified. Instead, those who do not work do not have this dignity. But there are many who want to work and cannot."
"Not paying a just wage, not providing work, focusing exclusively on the balance books, on financial statements, only looking at making personal profit. That goes against God!"
 "We can no longer say what St. Paul said: - He who will not work, will not eat -, but we have to say: He who does not work, has lost his dignity, because he cannot find any opportunities for work"
"This is what happens now! People are less important than the things that give profit to those who have political, social, economic power"
"Today, it would do us good to listen to the voice of God, when he spoke to Cain, saying: "Cain, where is your brother?". Today, however, we hear this voice: "Where is your brother who has no work? Where is your brother who is subjected to slave labor?. Let us pray, let us pray for all these brothers and sisters who are in this situation. So be it".
   These ones are some of il Papa Francesco's tweets for today: 
"Dear young friends, learn from Saint Joseph. He went through difficult times, but he always trusted, and he knew how to overcome adversity"- Pope Francis
"How marvellous it would be if, at the end of the day, each of us could say: today I have performed an act of charity towards others!"- Pope Francis

Save the Bees! - ¡Salvemos las abejas!


    Surely you will have heard that bees are disappearing and nobody knew why. Recent studies have confirmed that the cause are all the poisons used in agriculture. Pesticides can be lethal for bees, and in low doses they can cause a lot of disorders as the loss of memory. This makes us think that pesticides could be also the cause of Alzheimer disease in humans, the same way they are one of the causes of Parkinson Syndrome.
    Why are bees so important? Bees are responsible for the pollinating of plants, flowers, and vegetables. Without bees we won't have the sweet healthy honey, and we won't have fruit and vegetables to eat. Bees are in danger, agriculture is in danger, we humans are in danger. And that's not all, if the bee that survives pesticides suffers from memory loss ... it doesn't know how to return to the hive, becomes disoriented and can not go back home to make honey and wax, products so needed in our food and in our home.

What is happening to bees should be taking into account as part of a scientific essay and like a prove that pesticides can be the cause of so many unexplainable neurological diseases happening in humans. Bees in their natural environment and the use of pesticides are like a live laboratory to watch what could happen to humans.
    What can we do? It's simple. Don't use pesticides on agriculture, don't use pesticides in parks and gardens, there are healthy alternatives for it, buy and eat organic fruit and vegetables.
    The companies of pesticides have a high influence on politicians and they move a lot of money. However the battle is not lost, there is much we can do. No matter if you are a politician, no matter if you are involved in agriculture, or if you are just someone concerned with human health and the health of each and every living being in Nature. Just "Be the change you wanna see in the world". 
     Together we can Save the Bees!

     Seguramente habréis oído que las abejas están desapareciendo y que nadie sabía por qué. Estudios recientes han confirmado que la causa son todos esos venenos utilizados en la agricultura. Los pesticidas pueden ser letales para las abejas, y en dosis bajas pueden causar muchos trastornos como la pérdida de memoria. Ésto nos hace pensar que los pesticidas podrían ser también la causa de la enfermedad de Alzheimer en los seres humanos, de la misma manera que son una de las causas del síndrome de Parkinson.
    ¿Por qué son tan importantes las abejas? Las abejas son responsables de la polinización de las plantas, flores y verduras. Sin abejas, no tendremos la tan dulce y saludable miel, y no vamos a tener frutas y verduras para comer. Las abejas están en peligro, la agricultura está en peligro, los seres humanos están en peligro. Y eso no es todo, si la abeja que sobrevive a los pesticidas y plaguicidas sufre pérdida de memoria... no sabe cómo regresar a la colmena, se desorienta y no puede volver a casa para elaborar la miel y la cera, productos tan necesarios en nuestra alimentación y en nuestro hogar.
    Lo que está pasando con las abejas debería tomarse en cuenta como parte de un ensayo científico y como prueba de que los pesticidas pueden ser la causa de muchas enfermedades neurológicas inexplicables que ocurren en los seres humanos. Las abejas en su medio natural y el uso si los pesticidas son como un laboratorio vivo para ver lo que podría pasar a los humanos.
    ¿Qué podemos hacer? Es muy sencillo. No utilizar pesticidas en la agricultura, no utilizar pesticidas en los parques y jardines, hay alternativas saludables para ello, comprar y comer frutas y verduras ecológicas.
    Las empresas de pesticidas tienen una gran influencia sobre los políticos y  mueven mucho dinero. Sin embargo, la batalla no está perdida, se puede hacer mucho. No importa si eres político, no importa si estás involucrado en la agricultura, o si eres sólo una persona preocupada por la salud humana y la salud de todos y cada uno de los seres vivos de la naturaleza. Simplemente "Sé el cambio que quieres ver en el mundo".
    ¡Juntos podemos Salvar las Abejas!

Celebrate what you have

 

   The tv spot of this Summer in Spain is "Celebra lo que tienes" (Celebrate what you have) by Mahou, a beer trademark. This spot has called my attention so much and I'm so excited about it that I've decided to translate it for you.

   "Now... now... no? Now we are downhill you come to conquer us. Let me tell you one thing: You don't know us! We, with very little, get ourselves up, because here everybody, absolutely everybody has a song... and every time it sounds, I don't know how, but... troubles disappear, that is magic! And we have friends who are not friends, they are brothers! And what you tell me about our football (soccer) team? Los Tocaínos (invented name)... We will never win the League, but I feel so proud of them when I see them dressed in shorts every Sunday. Besides, we have grandparents... do you know what is talking to them?... about whatever! And we have our home, the first bath of the summer, "flesh and bone" (real ones, you can touch) friends and facebook ones. We get excited with anything... to score a gol!... we have to cry of joy, to be wrong and be forgiven... the meetings at home, the favors... we have our Saturday Mahou (a beer mark)... So, you'd better go back the way you have come! (People cheers)"

   After talking about this spot in twitter, I looked at the sky and I had the most magical experince ever... Some day I will talk about it :)

The Influence of Electromagnetic Waves on Health and Nature

   How electromagnetic waves affect health in relation to geographical factors: 
Houses located in granite areas accumulate large amounts of radon gas, which is carcinogenic, and the incidence of lung cancer is high in those areas. Radon gas can exist in any area, although most abundant in the granite, so it is essential to ventilate houses.
On the other hand, the place where the house is can influence our mood. We could talk about the existence of 3 kinds of places: relaxing, euphoric and depressive. We must avoid spending much time in the most negative of the house, avoid "Hartmann crossings." How can we know where there is a crossing of Hartmann? One way is to use dowsing rods (they are metal and L-shaped), hold them without moving and walk around the room, at the moment there is a crossing Halmark (because the muscles of our arms will have contracted slightly) will produce a closer and even a cross rod, according to the intensity of electromagnetic energy concentrated in that area. If you have pets: cats often choose the most negative to our health as her favorite place, however dogs often choose the most positive. It is important also the orientation of the bed should be north to south. It has been found that most of the animals are guided instinctively N to S to sleep. Many phenomena considered "paranormal" are a consequence of the concentration of electromagnetic waves which produce resonance in an object or being which contains the same wavelength. An example would be: we have a violin and play a string sound that has a specific wavelength, the waves travel across the room and placed the violin in the other corner of the room will also sound or resonate because, having a string of the same wavelength we play with his hand, made wavelength resonance (In physics this phenomenon is known as Electromagnetic Resonacia, which is nothing in the physical principle underlying the Nuclear Electromagnetic Resonacia Imaging diagnosis is used both in medicine) 
   Electromagnetic waves are harmful to health? There is much contorversia about it. The reality is that there are studies that say so. What happens is that they have as much publicity as the estuidios to the contrary. The economic interests of large telecommunications and technology companies are so big they could expliacar why advertising is ma studies that say they are not harmful. One study saw how subjecting mice to mobile phone waves for 3 hours a day were changed to 150 brain proteins. When you alter a protein also alters the function for this protein. This means that electromagnetic radiation could alter brain processes. Another study looked at how the neurons were destroyed contained in a petri dish after receiving waves from a mobile phone for 3 minutes. How might this happen? Very simple. It was thought that cells communicate chemically (by neurotransmitters), and electrically, but now we have seen that also communicate electromagnetically. 
Electromagnetic waves inhibit melatonin, a hormone naturally synthesized at night when we sleep. This hormone has an important antioxidant that prevents cell damage.
 
   Devices that emit electromagnetic radiation (from 800 Mhz up is when it starts to be harmful to the organism): computers, mobile phones, DECT wireless phones, telecommunications antennas, microwave ovens, wireless keyboards and mouse ... The closer your body is the device much worse, it is recommended to put the device far from our body and use handsfree or headset. 

   Nature is ill: It is said that since WiFi networks are everywhere in our cities we are causing many problems to Nature: It is believed that could cause the disappearance of bees, withering fall flocks of birds, the disease of many trees turning yellow. And all for the phenomenon of resonance, if the water or blood or any substance that is part of a bird is a wave of the same resonance wavelength would and could be causing it to fall to the ground without explanation. 

   How can we protect ourselves? 

Avoid using wireless devices that operate by radio frequency.
Use external keyboard and cord mouse to the computer. 
Use wired Internet connection, avoid WiFi, 3G ...
Use your mobile phone as little as possible and in any case, away from the head and the body (headphones or hands free)
At home, avoid using DECT cordless phones, which are worse than the signal emitted by mobile phones, DECT emit during 24 hours, excepting the ECO models (they work like the mobile phones emitting only when you call or receive call and in stand-by from time to time) 
There are chances of isolating the house to radiation, but I imagine that it must be a major investment. Don't live near electrical transformers. 

What better can help is by taking antioxidants found in fruits and organic vegetables
Others recommend a salt lamp.
Others have cactus near the computer ... (It is not clear that protect today given the high intensity waves have surrounding us) 
We also recommend turning off the power grid during sleep, there are some devices that connect to the light box to facilitate connection and disconnection is operated as a light switch)
Place the bed N to S, avoid TV and computer in the bedroom, and unplug the other devices at bedtime. 
Ideally, a geobiological study in the house before buying it, or when there are health problems.

How to set File Extensions Association on VLC Portable

    This tip is for Windows:

   After having tried to do it through VLC preferences, and manually in Folder Options with no success, I got it worked by doing this...

Step 1: Go to Start --> Settings --> Folder Options --> File Types
 There select and click remove the file extension you wish VLC opens as default player, for example: AVI.Now you'll see the icon of the AVI files has any specific.

Step 2: Right-click on an avi file --> "Open with", choose VLC or browse looking for the folder where vlc.exe is and select. Now all AVI files will open with VLC.

* This is a tip that worked fine for me, any change you make on your computer is your responsability. Steps can vary according to the Windows version
