Challenge mysterious thriller Ten Books

This blog reading any proposal is welcome, and in this case, myopic The third is a mysterious entry on the Challenge, which consists of reading ten books of detective novels from May to December . Challenge for me if it is, because it is a genre in which I lavish so much, but some I have read and I can assure you that sent me worse required reading in school.



K. Gilbert Chesterton. The Man Who Knew Too Much . A Chesterton discovered with The Man Who Was Thursday, a bizarre novel circulating between comedy, philosophy and fantasy. The Man Who Knew Too Much is more on the detective genre, although the title is somewhat misleading, since Reno's edition also includes several short stories that have nothing to do.



K. Gilbert Chesterton. The scandal of Father Brown. Another saga that began in my youth, and that over time, I was left open the third. The style is very similar to the deductions of Sherlock Holmes, and his character also has a kind of Watson, in Eset case, Flambeau, a retired French thief, but also combines many ideas of the author and a bit of criticism.



Graham Greene. The Third Man. While this sole pull over to the spy novel, this, set in postwar Berlin, has a more focused argument as police, with murder and black market through included, which in espionage.



George Simenon. Commissioner Maigret. I read a couple of novels about four or five who gave away the Voz de Galicia, and got to see the TV series, but can not remember the character beyond identifying it as a police detective.



Pierre Véry. Goupia Manos Rojas. After reading Goupia Manos Rojas in Paris, I decided I had to get the first and abroad. Véry because the character is one of the Martians who have met in my life: a quiet (and somewhat disturbing) resident of a town of Angouleme, having fun imagining a country populated by other nicknames Goupis and puts his neighbors: Goupia-La Ley, Goupia-Church ... The atmosphere is very strange and exhausting, desribed small towns or in the case of the second book, a Paris full of secrets, of pensioners-mafia characters and very, very rare.



Agatha Christie. Ten Little . Or are the Diez Negritos, o Asesinato en el Orient Express, pero algo de la Señora Christie tiene que caer. En su día, había leido Cartas sobre la mesa y El misterio de Sittaford, que estaban bastante entretenidos, pero a día de hoy, la totalidad de sus libros puede hacerse un poco repetitiva, más alla del interés que tengan por su ambientación en entreguerras.



Raymond Chandler. El sueño eterno. Había visto la película, porque Bogart es mucho Bogart, y también tengo el libro por casa. Chandler escribía novelas policiacas de puertas para fuera, porque en la mayoría se centraba más en la crítica,los trapos sucios de la clase alta and corruption.



Gaston Leroux. The Mystery of the Yellow Room . This is the second time I read The perfume of the lady in black, his sequel. In order to see if I find out who the hell is Fréderic Larsan and why it is an evil genius.



Sherlock Holmes. Study in Scarlet. Holmes The first kick I read, and for some reason, it also includes a historical novel ... in the middle of the chapters. I do not know if it was a printing error, or neural author.




Henning Mankell. Wallander. Gender Scandinavian police could not miss, and those of Wallander are fairly well supported .. What I can not say Millennium, Salander whose famous character seemed too fantastic to be in a realistic novel.

One of the traditions of this blog is to collect search input. After two years, should have enough material to make a rather comical, but in the collection, Hewl and I look at a very strange thing: even though the blog moves and cat-geek side of life, almost all include terms related searches. This most often "doctor who", "being human use", "Scott Pilgrim" and even "sucker punch" or "Fawlty Towers."

Fortunately, there have been some who either have surprised me by referring to little-known books or movies, or enter the realm of the surreal:

What Can Cause Extreme Fatigue

On the national march for peace

What I liked about the place (my first and hopefully last) is that the pain of a marginal poet has been called a march of such proportions and diversity. Yes, there were many groups 'radical' proposals with the same 'stupid' as ever, but something became clear to me yesterday: they are right or not, their grievances are legitimate, their problems are not solved yet and your proposals (with which we agree or not) have failed to materialize (for one reason or another) in legal initiatives. What they said some columnists and intellectuals, always repeating the criticism against the Mexican left-wing populism and the 'totalitarian democracy' in the mass meetings, sounds great. It is always sensible response: changes happen through legal means, institutional, slowly but genuinely democratic. I used to agree with that, but today I'm not so sure. Can

, at the current point of things, resolved so many serious crimes and wrongs of institutional form? Do not we have a lot of these circumstances, the Congress to legalize drugs, regulate monopolies, propuesiera a comprehensive reform of the state, parties and public finances? Faced with such problems are compounded every day in increasingly difficult circumstances (we're not even in the days of Fox, when harm than good, there was economic stability, oil boom, the hope of institutional renewal), can we expect change from within the institutions? You really can renew Mexico from the mainstream media from specific political parties, elections and the 'reforms'? Yes, it should be, because then things are done in a true democracy. But as said Ellacuría, SJ in the eighties on El Salvador: "The Salvadorans have for half a century freely choosing their leaders and have not improved their situation at all: they are starving and being murdered. What face we can ask them to continue going to the polls? '. Maybe you can ask Wallace Sicily or to wait for democracy and its slow action, but what about the bees and other indigenous Chiapas? How are already waiting for the "institutional channels" solve anything? I, for one, do not see clearly how to reform the political system from the current system of parties. And you only need to confirm this, see the names of people sought by the Chair for 2012. Honestly ask ourselves, what can wait for an honest man and honest who joins the existing parties?

Just as it is easier than walking, so varied and multitudinous, went beyond their own purposes and fall into the commonplace, the same goes for those who, taking advantage of it, tempted to ignore the background and motivations that you could breathe at street level, there are many, many people who, by differently and may be different than one might think, has something in common: they feel aggrieved, angry and, above all, powerless. View it simply as a march against Calderon and for a pact with the drug is inappropriate and unfair (in which case, it was Mrs. Wallace who blamed the authorities for the murder of his son.) But one thing is clear: people who are left in the best, extremely disappointed by the authorities, beginning by the president, who initiated a 'war' front (perhaps, yes, postponed) against organized crime, for the wrong reasons, without consulting anyone, with the wrong strategy (and the military agree), wrong methods and results disastrous. Yeah, that Felipe Calderon has anyone tortured and maimed with their hands, but how do you expect (him or zealots) is not responsible for the disaster has already happened (35 000 dead!) And the failure of his strategy? Which denies that and insists on going is outrageous and, dare I say, sinful, demonic. If no one spoke against organized crime, kidnappers and murderers is because they do not all accounts may be required, strategic reassessments, legality of any kind. Crime and violence feeds and reproduces itself: there is nothing to do but to ask (although they ignore) that his cruelty is not free, that respect the 'civilians'. Instead, it is to criticize Calderon, for whom many of the attendees voted to start in 2006, which was not on his campaign promises no 'war', which was initiated without adequate means (municipal cooperation state of which he complains), which, quite simply, made a mistake after another and it has left, in practice, a 'civil war' in Mexico.

But there is one more thing I want to say. Sicily is, obviously, politically naive, that is its greatest strength and biggest flaw. He, unlike Martí, Vargas and Wallace, not of the Mexican social and economic oligarchy, is a relatively unknown poet electoral or economic unpretentious, Catholic single, automarginals conviction. Some have suggested that what he is doing is because he wants to sell more books and get a 'bone' in politics. They are people who ignore where it comes from, how it is and that her son and his friends kidnapped, badly beaten to deface and suffocated with plastic bags. Of course, all for a few books and a mayor of shoddy! I think what bothers these people more than not taking the "institutional channels" (because they have money or influence, which is the only thing that can move the institutional channels to voice and voice worth it in this country !), is one who has dared to go further, saying he does not believe in those beds, because they are infested and infected with the same ills that claim to combat. And worse: he, as a simple poet who would rather be in Cuernavaca, writing, praying and watching your child grow quietly Juan, has touched the fibers of the poor, the Zapatistas, the youth, 'marijuana', gays and many other factions that the same institutional oligarchy wanted to disappear. In the end, that Sicily is not a Martí or Wallace weighs people 'good', as Martí and Wallace, because the gears are in bad taste, for 'nacos' and 'radical', for those not believe in the institutions (because the institutions have neglected the lifetime).


Good thing Javier has had a lifetime of Christian mystical deep rooted and personal. Whatever happens is for these events that God had given him so much grace. GG

cienciaficcioneras a week

Today, we answer a question that assails all readers: Is it possible to put a picture of a kitten with each book entry and not repeated?

in this blog are like the postman, but rain, snow or shine, reading is a vice that is not abandoned. Another thing is to respect the order that they had thought about books yet, because, although the former had thought myself meme with the adventures of Le Bossu, I decided to go back to science fiction (and translations into Castilian) before to continue with the cape and sword, fair and equal choice to launch a random 20-sided die to decide which book to start first.

"Stop the monkey," he said as a child.

Pierre Boulle. Planet of the Apes. More than the book, the monkeys are known a lot thanks to Charlton Heston movie and a little less thanks to the one that shot Cosic Tim Burton. The argument is well aware: an astronaut arrives on a planet inhabited by intelligent apes human and feral, who take the watchman's whistle ... and this is the only point of agreement between both versions, because the book is less cienciaficcionero Boulle , closer to the adventure and ... why deny it, more French. And that is the way of narrating, ignoring scientific references ("at that time, space travel were the most common), or exaggerating a pair of astronomical references (as a small lecture information on Betelgeuse) is much closer to Verne than science fiction of the time. MONIL civilization is the equivalent of the sixties of the earth, so you see a lot of orangutans, gorillas and chimpanzees dressed in suit and tie is much more comical than the brown suit Doctor Zaius we remember in the movie , not to say that the findings of leading the similarities between the two species are quite funny, and the baba bad when explaining the reason for this evolutionary change. Not much more to say about this book, except that for many we saw The Informal at the time, reminds us that:

same I'm reading I

Isaac Asimov. The Naked Sun. In Asimov just knew it was a science fiction author who sold a lot for years (more or less, at the time that Stephen King started corduroy in Plaza y Janes), who had a lot of books about the Foundation had invented the laws of robotics and for counting. I do not appeal to me much because the robots are a bit like me (where a good pair of Triffids, which are removed cans), except for the Metropolis, because that is sacred. I started reading this Naked Sun to be among several that I borrowed and slightly increase that of popular culture. I started to read without knowing the plot, nor the date, or whether it belonged to one series, and when you get to read to the blind, the book in question may like or dislike. Luckily, this corresponds to the first option: set in a world in which a part of humans have conquered space and developed the robot, while another is stuck in the land, living in cities and still high kilometric despised by the former, a detective must travel to land one of those planets to solve a murder thing will be complicated when the customs and culture are completely opposite. In short, this is a detective story situated in space and robots, but it develops the same way that it could include for example, a novel about an African detective should go to imperial Britain to solve a crime. With this comparison, it is not highly original, but is written with enough agility and is entertaining. In addition, one of the things that characterizes the book is the absence of criticism toward both planets, and a very little pessimistic of these: if isolation is a form of habitual behavior on Earth are unable to stand outside due to their confinement in the cities ... details presented in an objective, but the story is in first person and the protagonist, as well as surprised at this, must face the rejection of the suspects as human germ carrier.

is probably the next Fahrenheit 451, which is very short and ends in an afternoon, and if not, as my people say: God will say tomorrow.

Doctor Who Season 6. Day of the Moon

The Doctor Who has started with a double episode that includes a bit of everything: time travel, aliens disturbing aspect, and several tracks for the next episodes. This is a review of best and worst The Impossible Astronaut and Day of the Moon:

narrative arcs. Since 2005, Doctor Who has been characterized by a recurring phrase that signals a major event, which will serve as the finale. This time they have gone one step further, and last season many of the characters he was told the doctor that "Silence will fall", a situation that will open this season and it serves, simultaneously, to make way for an arc more broad and ambitious, involving the very future of one of his companions.

AAAgh! That tie is frightening

The Silence. Weeping Angels If he had won a prize to Steve Moffat, these aliens wearing ties and also bring them big heads, without the Doctor knew until now, this race has been behind the humans from the beginning, hiding from them by orders posthypnotic. In the words of the doctor, "is not about to fight an invasion, but to carry out a revolution." And it is the power to dominate the mind that will lead to the destruction of this species.

temporary crossings. Along with giving fear, is another favorite topic of Steve Moffat. And in these two episodes has been the basis of good. Being a series on, time travel, he was the writer who twists the possibilities of this concept the most, a trend that began with the first season of Matt Smith. In this case, has gone one step further, playing with his own death of the Doctor, River Song escapes from taking advantage of the apparitions of the Tardis, and that girl who seems to be connected to Amy Pond.

Paradoxes (again). Russell T. Davies accustomed us to the smallest detail plot had its conclusion, which Steve Moffat does not follow to the letter. Among their vices, have a preference for a faster assembly, shock effect (which this time involved several dead. Or not) that lead to a situation explained, and skip the explanations, if sometimes accelerates the narrative, others leave a lot of questions that can not be resolved.



characterization. Although I was very funny this setting in the U.S. (and the fact that its broadcast on BBC America include the voice of Karen Gillian putting on the public record. Viva expanding audience), the theme of the space race served to include a claim that another element, like the spacesuit and the mysterious girl, the appearances of Richard Nixon is not quite there. The theme of the characters famous works more or less well when they have their over centuries, as was the case with Charles Dickens in 2005, but both the Nixon and Winston Churchill in the previous season have been no big deal.



After initial dizziness, the next episode promises a story far more bearable and more components of adventures without complications, ships, pirates, ghosts and some surprise. Any improvement with pirates.

How Can I Recover A Master Padlock Combination?

The false contradiction of sin in children attributed to the Book of Mormon

Is it really contradictory to the text of Psalm 51:5 to 8:8 Moroni about sin in children?

Author: Israel Gonzalez

As criticism suggests that Psalm 51:5 and 8:8 Moroni allegedly contradict, let's start with a definition of contradiction.


Definition of contradiction

The term conflict is defined as the presence of an "affirmation and denial that oppose each other and destroyed each other" (Dictionary Royal Academy, 2011).

During the analysis of each "contradiction" attributed by critics of the Book of Mormon to the literacy of it in supposed opposition to the Gospel contained in the Holy Bible, we see that each fall as false in any of the following three cases :

1. The statement puts and biblical criticism really is not the Bible.
2. * The Mormon claim that criticism makes it really is not as Mormon Book of Mormon.
3. The statements set as opposed criticism does not really contradict each other, ie, not destroy each other but can coexist in one or more contexts, book together, giving a sense of richness to the truth of the Gospel.

* Notes: coined a new meaning to the term "Mormon (a)" to summarize some content follows directly from the Book of Mormon, and we prefer the term "Mormon" that folklore is associated with all canon and culture Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.


This is only an excerpt of the future article "The false contradictions attributed to the Book of Mormon" paper still publishing a list of "serious doctrinal alleged contradictions" that the author published in this year 2011, as an apologetic defense of the book and to confirm the faith of Latter-day Saints and their supporters.

The method of refutation

Since the critical expose contradictions, we followed a method which complies with the definition, so check if it is effective that the statements were destroyed. To do so, follow the following methodology:

1. try to identify in a concise manner which two statements are contradictory to each criticism.
2. evaluate whether the statement is biblical, making cross-references one and only with Biblical content.
3. evaluate whether the claim is Mormon, making one and only cross-references to the content of the Book of Mormon
4. In case 2 and 3 themselves are correct, we will assess whether the statements actually contradict each other. To see if it destroys the Mormon claim to the biblical and / or destroy the Mormon Bible, or really can coexist.
5. For 2 or 3 are not correct, try to draw a hypothesis of why the criticism come to be described by its author as contradictions. Critical

"The Book of Mormon teaches that Young children are not able to [make] sin because have a sinful nature (Moroni 8:8). In contrast, the Bible in Psalm 51:5 clearly teaches that we have a sinful nature from birth: "Behold, I was shapen in iniquity and in sin my mother conceived me" (Source: http://www.irr .org / mit / English / bib-bom-sp.html , annex added in square brackets)

criticism arises, then, these two conflicting claims: Claim

1. Bible: Humanity has a sinful nature from birth.
2. Mormon Affirmation: Humanity does not have a sinful nature from birth.

The statement itself is biblical

For the answer to this criticism define the sinful nature and the presence of corruption in the body and / or spirit do to be spotted in the sky, we refer to an intrinsic nature, of being, which is expressed at the time the acts and will not be visible in the children first.

Thus the Bible contains numerous evidence that the whole of humanity - including infants - is indeed sinful from or after (not before) the fall of Adam:

1. For the day that you eat thereof you shall surely die (Genesis 2:17)
2. Because there is no man who does not sin (1 Kings 8:46)
3. Behold, I was shapen in iniquity and in sin my mother conceived me ( Psalms 51:5)
4. Your first father sinned, and thy teachers have transgressed against me (Isaiah 43:27)
5. Our fathers have sinned and have died, and we took his punishment "(Lamentations 5:7)
6. Who can say : I have cleaned my heart and I clean my sin? (Proverbs 20:9)
7. certainly not a just man on earth who does good and never sins (Ecclesiastes 7:20)
8. Be remembered before the evil Lord of their fathers, and the sin of his mother be blotted out. (Psalms 109:14)
9. death passed upon all men because all sinned (Romans 5:12)
10. In Adam all die (1 Corinthians 15:22)
11. If we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us (1 John1: 8)

The statement is not Mormon

Surprisingly the Book of Mormon also supports downright humanity has inherent sinful nature as is the Bible. The book often refer to this state of sin, as a state "down" and "lost." Sometimes as "nature." Others, such as "sinful," "carnal" and "corrupt." We will see that the book teaches state as "forever." Man alone can not rid of him.

These multiple quotes from different characters from different cultures, different periods of time, directly or indirectly support a fallen nature to all mankind as a race regardless of age (infants, children, youth or adults), sex (men or women) or other pattern classification. Here

add to each appointment, the author, culture and the approximate year in order to demonstrate that this belief was accepted across all the peoples of the Book of Mormon:

1. All mankind was in a lost and fallen state, and would forever, unless rely on this Redeemer. (1 Nephi 10:6, the patriarch Lehi, 600 BC)
2. And the Lord will set his hand for a second time to restore his people from his lost and fallen (2 Nephi 25:17, Nephi First King and Seer Nephite, 559 BC)
3. If knowledge of the goodness of God in this time has awakened you to a sense of your annulment and your worthless and fallen state (Mosiah 4:5, Benjamin King and Seer Nephite, 124 BC)
4. The natural man is an enemy of God, and has been since the fall of Adam, and will be forever (Mosiah 3:19, Idem)
5. So all humanity was lost, and, behold, would have been lost forever had not God rescued his people from their fallen and lost. (Mosiah 16:4, Abinadi the Prophet, 148 BC)
6. But remember that anyone who persists in his own carnal nature, and follow the paths of sin and rebellion against God, remains in his fallen state, and the devil hath all power about it. (Ibid.)
7. And the Lord told me: Marvel not de que todo el género humano, sí, hombres y mujeres, toda nación, tribu, lengua y pueblo, deban nacer otra vez; sí, nacer de Dios, ser cambiados de su estado carnal y caído (Mosíah 27:25, Alma Profeta Nefita en su conversión, 82 a.C.)
8. Vemos que Adán cayó por comer del fruto prohibido, según la palabra de Dios; y así vemos que por su caída, toda la humanidad llegó a ser pueblo perdido y caído. (Alma 12:22, Alma Profeta Nefita en Tierra de Ammoníah, 82 a.C.)
9. ¿Quién se hubiera imaginado que nuestro Dios fuera tan misericordioso como para sacarnos de nuestro estado terrible, pecaminoso y corrompido? (Alma 26:17, Ammón Lamanite missionary ground, 90 BC)
10. You say that this is a people guilty and fallen because of the transgression of a parent. Behold, I tell you that a child is not guilty by reason of their parents. (Alma 30:25, Korihor the antichrist in his criticism of the teaching that children also participated in the Fall of Adam taught by the Prophet Alma, 74 BC)
11. Because it is necessary to make an atonement, because according to the great plan of the Eternal God, you must be an atonement, or else all mankind must inevitably perish, yea, all have been hardened, yea, all have fallen and are lost, and not for the atonement is necessary to do, must perish. (Alma 34:9, words Amulek missionary companion of the Prophet in his mission Alma Zoramites, 74 BC)
12. All men are in a natural state, or rather say, in a carnal state, are in the gall of bitterness and in the bands of wickedness (Alma 41:11, Alma Prophet's words in its commission mission for their children, 74 BC)
13. And there would be no means to redeem man from this fallen state, he himself was caused by reason of his disobedience (Idem)
14. By the fall of Adam, all men are considered as if dead, both in regard to things temporal and spiritual things. (Helaman 14:16, the words of the prophet Samuel Lamanite, 6 BC)
15. We know that you are holy and dwell in heaven, and that we are unworthy before thee because of the fall our natures have become evil continually ( Ether 3:2, Brother of Jared Prophet Jaredite, 4,000 BC)

Therefore the statement is not Mormon and therefore the alleged contradiction is false.

There is no contradiction

What may have confused the authors of the original criticism in Moroni 8:8 is very subtle in the teaching of their prophet Mormon letter about infant baptism practiced in the fourth century in the Nephite Church, and is the transverse error committed by his body early centuries of Catholic Bishops in Rome on the same topic.

To do this we quote verbatim the above verse and the verses of context:

"Son, I want you to work diligently to remove from among you this big mistake, because for this purpose I have written this epistle.

Because immediately after I had learned these things of you, I asked the Lord concerning the matter. And the word of the Lord came to me by the power of the Holy Spirit saying

Hear the words of Christ, your Redeemer, your Lord and your God, Behold, I came into the world not to call the righteous to repentance, but sinners, the whole need no physician, but those are sick, so young children are healthy, because they are incapable of committing sin, so the curse of Adam is taken from them in me , so he has no power over them, and the law of circumcision is done away in me .

And so I said the Holy Spirit the word of God, therefore, my beloved son, I know that it is solemn mockery before God that ye should baptize little children.

Behold, I tell you this teach-repentance and baptism those who are responsible and capable of committing sin yes, teaches Parents who must repent and be baptized, and humble themselves as their children, and shall all be saved with their little children.

And their little children need no repentance, neither baptism. Behold, baptism is unto repentance to the fulfilling the commandments for the remission of sins.

But little children are alive in Christ, even from the foundation of the world if not, God is a partial God, and also a changeable God a respecter of persons, for many little children who have died without baptism!

So if young children could not be saved without being baptized, they have gone to an endless hell.

behold, all little children are alive in Christ, and also all those who are without law. For the power of redemption is effective in all those who have no law, so that has not been convicted, or which is not under condemnation, can not repent; and that baptism is useless. "(Moroni 8:6-14,22)

In this context, it is clear that Moroni 8:8 does not say that children are innocent" of themselves. " If it were an essential innocence of being or self. Why Mormon would use the argument of "innocence of Christ", ie, through the merits of Christ himself to appeal to the sanctity of young children? There would be no need for a Redeemer if celestial innocence of babies were an inherent innocence. Moreover, if an essential innocence, no-won by Christ What merits then you have a Savior?. Just do not require redemption and a sanctification for infants. Moroni 8:8

argues a second reason for the innocence of babies in Christ and is "committed no sin." Again here is not the essence of the individual but to the individual's own sinful intention. Mormon never speaks that there is no intrinsic sin nature in children, but speaks of the nature of commission sinful which obviously was not in infants and children under. Is it the same sinful nature that the commission of sin? No. From the first by genetics Adamic all share, says the Book of Mormon. In the second awareness is needed of the law, because no commission is omission (James 4:17).

A history to take into account is that this innocence won "in Christ", it is clear to Mormon only after a process of reflection and then a new direct revelation from the Lord. So we can assume without fail, even the same Mormon also questioned whether infant baptism was wrong, and this probably because he was absolutely clear that the curse of Adam includes every child of Adam regardless of age. Therefore

this innocence Shall be understood as a sanctification by grace free but essential cleanup of young children: a free forgiveness in Christ, as free and universal that does not require repentance or any religious sacrament. Thus we can indeed conclude that there is a small and very short lapse of time (8 years, according to tradition revealed in Mormonism) between the conception in the womb of the mother and the awakening of individual conscience, which is forgiven and sanctified through the redeeming grace of the Savior in a free and universal until consciousness is rooted in his being and that individual ceases to be innocent (without knowledge of the gospel) and begin to sin through willful commission (or willful default.)

This "innocence won" by having atoning for sins in a state of innocence, then, may well include those who never could hear the law and the mentally disabled for life or the thousands and millions who never arrived knowledge of the law, the principles and ordinances (sacraments) of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

This "innocence in Christ" has its justification in biblical scriptures also (to mention others such as John 1:10, where the theologian explains that in light of the grace of Christ shines upon each designed independent of any condition) and as in modern revelation of the tradition Mormon, but the most relevant and enlightening, and certainly that occupied the minds of Mormon to meditate on the role of Jesus Christ as High Priest and Redeemer atoning sin nature - as Mormon had access to the Books of Moses - has been the as follows:

"And the priest shall make atonement for the person who sinned inadvertently, when small inadvertently before the Lord, make atonement for her, and be forgiven." (Numbers 15:28)

Thus we see that the law of Moses in ancient times kept the symbolism of forgiveness also for the innocent. They were not innocent of themselves, but Atonement was the forgiveness that allowed such sinners. Such forgiveness by grace require an active action of the sinner only when you become aware of their actions before the law. This is consistent at all with the passage of Moroni 8:8.

the foregoing we have shown that the "contradiction of sin in children" does not exist in the Book of Mormon. The Book of Mormon never states that children are not intrinsically sinful nature (indeed, says he does; see references above) only argues that Christ is justified and sanctified through His Atonement and that sanctification is valid in early of life or until they understand the Law After this they require repentance and baptism.

season begins Doctor Who and I with these hairs

Doctor Who, Cosmic Kite seen in the black Dalek looks just like me!

From week Last, I'm not cope on my usual series although they are four news, I have yet twelve episodes ahead of the Game of Thrones, and especially Doctor Who, one of the first that I followed as issued.

The most significant development last season was the entrance of Matt Smith, his stubborn and Steve Moffat as head of the series. This new doctor was very crude to overcome the affection that fans watched him with David Tennant, and after seeing the Christmas special and this first episode, I think we still have to keep trying ... Four years is four years and do not forget easily.

The new season started with a header a little sad, because the death of Elisabeth Sladen (Sarah Jane's fourth Doctor) and no continuity with the Christmas special, which at this point so surprised that we were accustomed to serve in advance for the official season. In this case, no mention is made trips Amy and Rory in the Tardis, which two months are now installed in a house as newlyweds. The next contact with the doctor will be telling them thanks to an invitation to travel to the United States, which is also a somewhat rare occurrence for a character that we were used to materialize their cabin in the most unexpected moments. To inaugurate

season, River Song appears also that for non-partner, or companion in the future, since 2008 seems to be paid to the series. I will not be complaining because I love the character, and as promised, this year we will have more information about how he met the Doctor.

Without saying anything about the plot, has all the typical things Moffat, as is a tendency towards the macabre much more pronounced, and a lot of time paradoxes, including two doctors, aliens that modify memory, and a face River Song to what is known to the Doctor in reverse temporal order. No wonder, because this man is the jealousy led us to the statues, libraries, organized a season on two time travel, and included a companion that the Doctor has not yet found.



In principle, it is no more episodes that I liked: the atmosphere in the U.S. I find it a bit strange as purely a British series like this, and it makes me suspicious if not discussed a move to further popularize the series across the pond. But for now, intrigue and paradox does offer in spades. If not a trailer that has everything we like in this blog: rubber monsters! Disturbing dolls! To Nazis! Who said that in Doctor Who, to Nazis and we had the daleks?

Circumstantial evidence

In The Prophetic Book of Mormon: New Approaches to Book of Mormon Study, Hugh Nibley makes an excellent point about the indirect and circumstantial evidence for the authenticity of the Book of Mormon (p. 71):
Circumstantial evidence
. Quite apart from the contents of the Book of Mormon and the external evidence that may support, under certain circumstances relating to their production can not be explained on other grounds than those given by Joseph Smith. Can be listed briefly:
1. There is the testimony of witnesses.
2. The youth and inexperience of Joseph Smith when he took full responsibility for the publication of the book - Test (a) that could not have produced by itself and (b) that he was not acting for someone else, because their behavior was Always a surprising independence.
3. The absence of notes and sources.
4. The short time production.
5. The fact that there is only one version of the book published (with minor changes in each edition). This is the most significant. It is now known that the Koran, the only book that claims the same degree of certainty and divine inspiration, was reissued at least three times during the lifetime of Muhammad. Which brings us to:
6. Unquestionable and immutable position of Joseph Smith concerning her revelations, a position that Eduard Meyer surprised more than anything else [1]. From the time they came out the Book of Mormon, Joseph Smith never ceased to take abroad, and never changed his attitude towards it. What creative writer does not ashamed of the production of such youth and inexperience after twenty years? What impostor awake nights in a row would not be worrying about the missteps and mistakes of this massive and pretentious product of youthful indiscretion and mischief? But since the prophet received revelations continued, nothing would have been easier had the slightest doubt that publishing a new edition, revised and improved, or completely rename the book, limit their movement, saying that was the only mysteries reach of the uninitiated, that should only be interpreted in a sense "religious" or replaced by something else. Los Santos who believed the Prophet, were the only ones taking the book seriously in any way.
7. There has never been a whiff of mystery around the Book of Mormon has been no secrecy related to the time of publication or at present, there is a complete lack of sophistry or policy analysis of the Book of Mormon plays no role in history of the Church as a puppet, never no dispute about its nature or content between the leaders of the Church is never manipulation, explanations or commitments. The book has enjoyed unlimited sales at all times.
8. Finally, although the book's success is no proof of his divinity, the type of person who has asked to read - honest, simple, straightforward, very balanced, and nothing mystical - is evidence of his honesty circunstantial. It has some very strong supporters.

From these points, let us note first the existence of witnesses. If the Book of Mormon was a fraud, Joseph Smith certainly would have kept secret. But gathered around him and many people who saw the plates ojearon and remained loyal to that testimony until the end of their lives, although many were unhappy with Joseph Smith because they suffered great persecution for their testimony. Or made money, and got power but nevertheless never denied his testimony. Consider Martin Harris, described as an honest and respectable even by anti-Mormons who knew him. He was a man of integrity in their community, a respected and successful man who sacrificed much to help advance the Book of Mormon. But would later disagree with the rules of the Church and was excommunicated in 1837. Despite this expressed repeatedly his testimony of the Book of Mormon, which had seen an angel, had played and browsed the boards and knew it was divine. His testimony was confirmed even in his deathbed.
Three witnesses saw an angel and the plates, eight others and witnessed the formal ojearon it and another handful, including Emma, \u200b\u200bJoseph's wife, witnessed the physical reality of the gold plates and the divinity of the Book of Mormon. None of the witnesses denied the authenticity and divinity of that book. What crazy trickster allow others to know of his fraud, which could be accomplices to kill them all and keep repeating the lie - even after the ill and bitter with the power lie? What would fraudster the luxury of forcing his fellow conspirators, when the end everyone would have to admit that everyone suspected was fraud and provide a gentle revenge to those who were drawn to them?
simply makes no sense that the Book of Mormon was a fraud. Stop in little of the language of the King James version or other details, but what can explain away the most basic element described here: the reality and divinity of an ancient record has multiple credible witnesses who insisted that the Book of Mormon was True to the end of their lives. How can such evidence be ignored?
The witnesses were not disreputable rascals in their communities, but were respected people who risked and lost much of its support to the Book of Mormon. Consider the testimony of many non-Mormon concerning Martin Harris, as documented by Milton V. Backman Jr., Eyewitness Accounts of the Restoration (Salt Lake City: Deseret Book Co., 1983), pag. 144-145:


After becoming close friends or acquaintances of several witnesses to the Book of Mormon, many non-Mormon witnesses also testified that they knew they were men of integrity. No individual who had only a slight dealings with these men wrote that they were dishonest, fake sincerity or incompetent judges of events. Instead of denouncing his character, many critics of the Church who knew the witnesses stated that they were trustworthy individuals. In 1830, for example, Martin Harris traveled to Geneva, New York, in an attempt to secure a loan of $ 13,000 to Charles Butler, financier and philanthropist who founded the Union Theological Seminary. Butler wrote that Harris brought a letter from Mr. Jessup (probably Henry Jessup), prominent leader of the Presbyterian Church. Butler depended Jessup recommendations regarding the character and financial status of those seeking loans in the Palmyra area. According to Butler, Jessup presented to Martin Harris as a "farmer worthy and important, who owned a farm that had a very good security for very large sum of money that he was seeking. "Although Butler favorably impressed Harris credentials, financial decided not to grant the loan when he learned that the money would go to the publication of the "Mormon Bible. [1] Henry Jessup
addition, others who lived in Palmyra felt that Martin Harris was honest and responsible. In 1829, the Palmyra Freeman reported that one of the few individuals who believed in the story of the "Golden Bible" was Martin Harris, "honest and industrious farmer" of Palmyra. [2] While traveling in western New York in 1831, James Gordon Bennett, reporter for the New York Courier and Enquirer knew who interviewed him that Martin Harris had a reputation as "respectable farmer... A hard worker... Important" and was known for his "restraint." [3] When Martin Harris left Palmyra to meet with Latter-day Saints in Ohio, the Wayne Sentinel reported that Harris was one of the first settlers of that town and has always held the status of honorable and honest citizen. " [4] And after publishing the testimony of three witnesses in his history of Mormonism, Pomeroy Tucker wrote: "How to reconcile the fact that Harris signed his name to that statement, given the nature of honesty that has always been granted, is something not easily explained. "[5]

Richard Lloyd Anderson in Investigating the Book of Mormon Witnesses (Salt Lake City: Deseret Book Co., 1981, pp. 101-103) analliza also the testimony of non-Mormons about Martin Harris:

The most unusual tribute to this Witness the Book of Mormon comes from an obituary written thirty-four years before his death. Probably because of activities of another Harris, the report spread by all U.S. newspapers in 1841, saying that Martin Harris was murdered in Illinois for speaking out against Mormonism. This was quickly corrected the Painesville Telegraph, which reported from Harris's residence in Ohio he was still alive to read "what is said of him after death." Meanwhile Alvah Strong in Rochester was based on the history of national movement of the murderer and had written a detailed estimate of their close knowledge. Strong, a distinguished editor and respected community leader in Rochester, had previously worked as a young printer in Palmyra immediately after the publication of the Book of Mormon and the heyday of the public preaching of Martin Harris in that community. Based on this and other personal knowledge, summarized admiration for this witness and prejudice against his testimony that characterized the community who knew him:

"We reminded the Lord Harris as an honest man. We became familiar with him in Palmyra, in the spring of 1828, shortly after plates were found which said they had translated the Book of Mormon.... Although illiterate and superstitious attitude had long maintained an irreproachable character for probity.... Their neighbors and fellow citizens with whom he worked incessantly and very seriously, remembered him as being more gullible than willing to deliberately deceive others, but still exposed him to many taunts and reprimands, which the bore with meekness that would make a better cause. "[Rochester Daily Democrat, June 23, 1841.]

Their exodus of Palmyra led a moving tribute before the public by EB Grandin, editor of the Wayne Sentinel in years crucial between 1827 and 1832 and printer of the Book of Mormon. Grandin Harris knew perhaps more intimately than any other non-Mormon.'s diary reveals Grandin Harris as a thoughtful man and religiously independent. The editor's farewell painted Martin Harris for Ohio with other Latter-day Saints in 1831. It's impressive that the direct approval of the financial integrity of the Book of Mormon comes the man with whom he had ongoing business relationships. Martin Harris passed this practical test distinction:

"Lord Harris is among the first inhabitants of this city, and has always carried the character of an honest man and honest and willing and benevolent neighbor. It has gained a respectable fortune to work honest and has left a large circle of relatives and friends. " [Wayne Sentinel, May 27, 1831.]

Orasmus Turner, who had been apprenticed to a printer in Palmyra, wrote negatively of Mormonism in 1852, Harris painting as a fanatic, however, was "a good farm owner and a decent and honorable citizen "(O. Turner, History of the Pioneer Settlement of Phelps and Gorham's Purchase (Rochester, 1852), p. 215, quoted by RL Anderson, "Martin Harris: The Honorable New York Farmer," Improvement Era, Vol 72, No. 2 (Feb. 1969), pp. 18-21). Testimonials
like people from outside the Church offered to the character of Oliver Cowdery and David Whitmer (citing Backman, pp. 146-148):

After leaving the Church in 1838, Oliver Cowdery established warm friendships with a number of non-members. Samuel Murdock, a lawyer who became "close associates" of Cowdery while living in Kirtland, wrote that he was indebted to him for his "special kindness" and " many lessons of instruction "he received from him. Murdock concluded that Oliver Cowdery was one of the individuals more" kind, generous and big heart "he had ever known. [1] Judge William Lang, a partner at law firm of Oliver Cowdery in Tiffin, Ohio, wrote that he hoped many opportunities "to study and love his noble and true humanity." According to Lang, Cowdery was "an able lawyer and a champion. . . . Was modest and reserved, never spoke ill of anyone, [and] never complained. "[2] Shortly after Oliver Cowdery moved to Tiffin, Seneca Advertiser reported that Cowdery was nominated as the Democratic candidate for the camera Representatives in Wisconsin. During his seven years of residence in Tiffin, the article continued,

our dear friend. . . earned an enviable distinction in this place and its judicial circuit as a solid and capable lawyer and as a highly esteemed citizen. His honesty, integrity and hard work were worthy of imitation for all, while its unquestionable capabilities reflecting credit both to himself and to the profession of being a member. [3]

Upon learning of the death of Oliver Cowdery, The Ray County Missouri Bar Association formally declared that "the law had lost a compliant member and the community to a worthy and valuable citizen." [4] And the Seneca Advertiser said "were sorry to know... Of death... (His) very dear friend and close formal citizen, Oliver Cowdery.... He was a man of great ability, and during his residence between us has earned the affection of all who knew him in the dealings of private and social life. " [5]
also not members of the Church certified that John and David Whitmer were "truthful, honest and law abiding citizens." After living in Richmond, Missouri, for 43 years, David Whitmer obtained the signatures of 22 prominent citizens of that city, including the mayor, lawyers, judges, bankers, merchants and officials who checked that "the treaty had long and intimately" and knew that "he was a man of great integrity and of undoubted truth and veracity." [6] A few days after his death, the Richmond Democrat ran an article apparently expressing the views of many friends of David Whitmer regarding his character and testimony of the Book of Mormon.

No man here who has been among our people hubierra more friends and few enemies. Honest, conscientious and honest in all dealings, fair in the trial of his peers, and open, manly and frank in their dealings, he made lasting friends who loved him to the end. . .
Sceptics may mock and scoff if want, but no man can hear Mr. Whitmer when he talks about his interview with the angel of the Lord, without being conavencido force that had come to an honest man say what he honestly believes is the truth. [7]

Because they have been preserved over a hundred personal statements or descriptions of interviews with three witnesses (and there is a further testimony of eight other witnesses), the testimony of the witnesses to the Book of Mormon is the best documented that any claim of direct revelation from the world's history. [8] The surprising harmony of reports from different times and circumstances, along with numerous references As for the character witnesses portrayed as men of integrity, is conclusive evidence of the veracity of the testimony published in the Book of Mormon. These numerous statements and interviews also serve as evidence that the bitter persecution, economic evidence, public criticism and apostasy of the Church of eleven witnesses never turned their conviction that carefully examined the metal plates, and the Book of Mormon was a product of the translation of that record. Even when six of the eleven leaders rejected Joseph Smith in the late 1830's, none of them denied any belief in the authenticity of the Book of Mormon. The public testimony from eleven witnesses enables us to better understand the unique event in the ecclesiastical history of humanity and giving support to the testimony of Joseph Smith that eleven men examined in fact the ancient record translated "by the gift and power of God.

Shortly before the death of Whitmer, the Chicago Tribune Correspondent published about him:

David Whitmer, the last of the three who testified to the truth of the Book of Mormon, is dying at his home in Richmond. Last night he called his family and friends at his bedside, and shared the testimony of the truth of the Book of Mormon and the Bible. (Chicago Tribune Correspondent, 23 January 1888, quoted in Lyndon W. Cook, David Whitmer Interviews: A Restoration Witness (Grandin Book Co., 1993), p. 220, cited in Ash Mike page "Book of Mormon Criticisms: David Whitmer. ")

After his death another newspaper, the Richmond Conservator, brought this report:

The Sunday night before his death he called his family and his physician Dr. George W. Buchanan the head of your bed and said, "Doctor, do you think I'm in my right mind?" to which the doctor replied: "Yes, it is in their right mind, I just had a conversation with you." Then he went to all those present and said: "I give my last testimony. Must be faithful in Christ. I want to say that the Bible and the record of the Nephites (Book of Mormon) are true, so they can say they have heard me proclaim my testimony in the death bed ...."
On Monday morning again called those who were present at the bedside, and said he had seen another vision that reconfirmed the divinity of the Book of Mormon , "and said he had seen Christ in the fullness of His glory and majesty, seated on his white throne in heaven, waiting for their children. (Richmond Conservator Report, 26 January 1888, quoted n Cook, p. 226 as quoted on the website of Mike Ash "Book of Mormon Criticisms: David Whitmer, see also Andrew Jenson, Latter-day Saint Biographical Encyclopedia: A Compilation of Biographical Sketches of Prominent Men and Women in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter- day Saints, 4 vols, Salt Lake City, p. 269.)

Comments on the Book of Mormon Witnesses: A Response to Jerald and Sandra Tanner by Matt Roper.

defies the logic that men of character generally praised Pudia be part of a fraudulent combination that would bring them no gain and then stay that combination and leave her to endorse fraud until the end of his days, even after becoming disappointed with the organizer who had been opposed on other issues. Would have every reason to expose Joseph Smith as a fraud, if his testimony was not true. The reliability and consistency of the testimony of the Book of Mormon exceed all legal standards for a credible witness. No reason can be given their testimony in their lives than the widely recognized for their integrity, causing them to maintain their position because they knew it was true, despite all the difficulties that caused them.
Many anti-Mormons have tried to discredit witnesses, but their efforts require the abandonment of what witnesses well knew: honesty and trustworthiness. To date, no anti-Mormon critic has been able to refute or explain away the overwhelming evidence around the testimony of numerous witnesses to the Book of Mormon. In fact, when anti-Mormons try to discredit the witnesses, almost universally claim that the massive documentation of Richard L. Anderson and other serious scholars on this topic does not exist. Rather than confront the existing scholarship, will try to ridicule the witnesses insidious little idea about their low intelligence, family relationships (several of the eight witnesses had mutual dealings), hypnotic dreams, or that some of them left the church, trying to suggest falsely that they had denied his testimony of the Book of Mormon, etc. But the document is clear: no witnesses ever denied their testimony of the Book of Mormon, and many heard them repeat their testimony until the end of their lives. One can only conclude the obvious: these people saw the gold plates and knew without a doubt that came from God. If the reader agrees with something more than what Joseph Smith did or said, it's time to reconsider the possibility that the Book of Mormon is a divine record to support real credible and convincing. Fortunately, the truth of the witnesses to the Book of Mormon is the compelling story of noble men of integrity and courage who proclaimed eloquent testimony of something divine.

Literary Meme

else who bothered holidays

Yesterday was the day of the book, but between various processions and floods, not the party that looked much concerned. And reading this blog is as necessary as eating, today it's a meme about books that I found there.

The last book I read . Guardians of Twilight, by Sergei Lukyanenko. This is the last of the trilogy of the Guardians, an urban fantasy series written by a Russian (sorry, Kazakh) quite peculiar: the author goes through the lining all the simplicities of good and evil, taking a much more diffuse story about the morality of the characters. Oh, and also has two films based on the book, which seem like an egg with a potato. But they are incredibly fun.

The book I am reading. Le parfum de la dame en noir, by Gaston Leroux. If at this stage do not master the language of that country in which job offers, is because the French had a much more varied literary offering.

The book that changed my thinking. Gormenghast, Mervyn Peake. They say the second half of the twentieth century has two types of readers: those who like Lord of the rings, and they like Titus Groan. I am among the latter.

The last book that made me mourn: General Tax Law. Only by reading the part of the record of compliance, it jumped me start crying now and Lima

The last book that made me laugh . Maskerade by Terry Pratchett. They had never given a definition of ballet as successful as the author of Discworld (yes, the dancers are dedicated to that voluntarily!)

A borrowed book that I have returned . Dark Essence by Tim Powers. But it did not really miss.

A borrowed book that I have not returned. The Chronicles of Elric of Melniboné, the same person that I returned the other. Quid pro quo, doctor.

A book read again. Wow, very many, and depending on your mood. From The Legion of the Damned by Sven Hassel, to Dostoevsky's Crime and Punishment.




A book that changed my life. New General Accounting Plan. At worst, that is.

A book to give to the blind. The Golem, by Gustav Meyrink. No home is complete without a copy.

A book that surprised me for good. Wuthering Heights, Emily Brontë. Heatcliff nowhere near going to look like the romantic anti-hero that many readers will love, but the characters made me funny, if only so that they are insane, the poor.

A book that disappointed me . Anansi Boys by Neil Gaiman. I always thought a guy a little overrated.

A book I found lost. One, whose name escapes me on the contemporary history of Spain, in English, which left some American tourists. For the lead that is, statistical and economic data, is surprisingly short. Of course history end of the country in 1986.

A book I stole. The Lord of the Rings, Tolkien. But I had up to me first, and you know what happens when a thief steals.



not for this man, I would not be here

The author of more books that I have . I have the complete works of HP Lovecraft and almost all of Jean Ray, for what they're tied.

A valuable book. My Penguin edition of Titus Groan, Gormenghast and Titus Alone, now in the safe of a Swiss bank.

A book that I've been meaning to read: Joyce's Ulysses, to see if the lion is as fierce as they paint.

A book that would ban : Omeñaca any of Jesus, a man willing to destroy the psyche of learners Accountant.

The next book I read . If God does not intervene, Le Bossu, Paul feval. That swashbuckling in France were not exclusive to the Dumas family.

Because this meme is not to nominate anyone, please either make use of it.

Year One DJ (after A Game of Thrones)

The crossover definitively: my cat and Game of Thrones

Habemus Game of Thrones! For about two years ago we started hearing rumors, approvals, changes in distribution and after photos, videos, and even an advance of fifteen minutes of the first episode. Things that I fled in terror for what not anything that gutted out to appear. Well I've had watching the first chapter without knowing anything in advance.

As from now on reviews of the first episode and the argument of the book and series are not going to be a novelty, I decided to make a compilation of more and less I like to see on the screen. But, for information, a brief summary of the story and origin of the series is as follows:



Game of Thrones is the first volume in the saga of George R. Martin, A Song of Ice and Fire. Set in an imaginary place (Westeros), tells the story of a war of succession between the various noble houses, after the death of King Robert Baratheon (which in turn, had also deposed before, Aerys Targaryen). As often happens in these cases, the battle ends up being a fratricidal war and a veritable slaughter for farmers and those who are in the way of the soldiers. In this regard, Song of Ice and Fire could easily be a non-recognized any conflict that occurred in Europe during the Middle Ages. The main difference is the fantasy elements that are part of Westeros, the system of stations is somewhat rare, and all its inhabitants live under the threat of a winter that could last years. In fact, the motto of one of the houses, the Stark, is "Winter is coming." It is with the Stark with which the story begins, because their domains are close to the Wall, a gigantic, very similar to Hadrian's Wall, which separates the civilized world of the Wild, a group of disparate tribes. And the Other, a creature able to create undead. However, if the magic will begin to appear later The author uses these elements in a very subtle way that is fully integrated into a coherent and fairly realistic universe of its canons. It also means that no character will finalize an army throwing fireballs.

is how well the game starts Thrones of HBO, and a little luck, we'll see the following books. This chain has always been famous, especially in recent years, not a hair cut that out on screen (although it ends up being somewhat resemble free Cultureta version of Telecinco), but also put much care and work when filming a series. This was not an exception and this is owed some of the best things that has had this episode, not all:



credits. I do not usually look for on this part, because the basis of watching a weekly series, just bored. Indeed, some are starting to drastically reduce or dispense with them, but these have been a true masterpiece, and I think that will happen many episodes before it starts to give the forward.

characterization and atmosphere. Although expected, Game of Thrones is closer to a realistic average age that a Legend of the Seeker, so nothing is particularly beautiful and bright: the castles erode, cities are dirty ... even with careful not to leave a very healthy teeth closest to the extras. In the main characters, nothing too bright, no one is too cute and even the dresses of the Stark House are all rough and skills that correspond to the situation.

brick boom, as seen by Martin

The Wall. The books have tired of describing it, to give its correct height .. but still continues to amaze me to see him on screen, looking huge and endless.

characters. Although not yet appeared all, there are some stand out: Robert

Baratheon (Mark Addy), a king bushels, john and cirrhotic lost. Just to see him dismount, and feel sorry, or it could serve as the promotion campaign for a republic.

Harry Lloyd, taking it all for your audience

Viserys Targaryen (Harry Lloyd). Not the best interpetaciones, and even seems a tad overacted, but the guy gives the C's brace based on a lot, and above all, to look as deranged, which is provide a very enjoyable and even funny for a character hateful. O is given very well, or is that his appearance in Chapter Doctor Who, Family of Blood, served as his training.

Juapo, juapo, non é, but have a peel ... Jaime

Lanistes (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau). I could not have found anyone better for the paper: The perfect combination of Pantene hair and square jaw piece, make it the epitome of a gentleman quite believed.

Even I raised official animal change

The huarguitos. This blog tends to cats, but how to resist the emergence of six adorable puppies? I will not complain for using huskies, it is preferable to a real animal to pull the computer effect that sooner or later going to age very badly. And while the Huskies do not look like its counterpart in the book .. Does anyone know where to find a Warg? If so, do not hesitate to notify the HBO.

I had a horrible nightmare: I dreamed that I pursued the eyebrows of Groucho Marx

Although negative point will be much smaller, I can not complain about the eyebrows of the characters. It is simply something that makes me sick from that in 2001 I saw Orlando Bloom in a blond wig, have spent a fortune scenarios, shooting, characterization ... What they forgot to buy bleach?
