Rasputín y sus leyendas

                                         

                                                            

 

 

 

Rasputín curioso personaje ruso conocido como ”el monje loco”, en el que confluyen varias leyendas a raíz de su truculenta muerte. Lo cierto es que, de todas las famosas leyendas, pocas son tan prolijas y divertidas como las relacionadas con los considerables genitales del Monje Loco. Leyenda rusa sobre Rasputín es su atractivo físico que, según se cuenta, levantaba pasiones entre sus admiradoras , con la que posó en esta foto en 1914.

¿Quereis saber cual ha sido el final de todo este embrollo? Pues la última acción tomada respecto a la reliquia de Rasputín implica al eminente doctor ruso Igor Knyazkin, el médico jefe del Centro de Próstata de la Academia rusa de las Ciencias.

Este respetable doctor abrió con orgullo en 2004 el primer Museo Nacional de Arte Erótico en su clínica de salud sexual, para mostrar una exposición de unos 15.000 artículos, nada menos, que ha ido acumulando durante su vida como coleccionista de objetos sexuales. La exposición permanente está abierta al público, que puede admirar una impresionante colección de falos de cerámica y de imágenes libertinas, algunas de las cuales datan del siglo XIX.

Y, efectivamente, el objeto estrella de la exposición es el pene que supuestamente perteneció al Monje Loco con sus casi impresionantes 30cm y su grueso diámetro(similar al de las muñecas de las manos) según la interpretación de Marie la Rasputina (caldría preguntarse cómo ella sabría esto!)

Resumiendo, que el actual dueño del miembro rasputiniano -y director del citado museo picante-, Igor Kniazkin jura y perjura que adquirió la pieza bañada en formol de un anticuario parisino, y que pagó por ella 8.000 dólares. Siempre, según Kniazkin, la reliquia estaba acompañada de varias cartas escritas por el propio Rasputín.

Todavía se desconocen las circunstancias de la oscura muerte de Rasputín y hasta ahora las teorías sobre la supuesta amputación de sus genitales son meras especulaciones. Mientras no hayan pruebas científicas concluyentes que demuestren la autenticidad del miembro masculino del Monje Loco, guardado en formol, el consenso general entre los zoólogos apunta a que este órgano simplemente perteneció a un caballo o bovino. Lo cierto es que las fuertes sospechas de la falsedad de esta reliquilia podrían condenar al doctor Igor Knyazkin y al mito del Pene de Rasputin al más oscuro ostracismo por exhibirlo a bombo y platillo.

Probablemente esta historia, haciendo el símil literario, sea lo más parecido a uno de aquellos cuentos chinos.

Montecristo

Montecristo is the name of two brands of premium cigars, one produced in Cuba for Habanos SA, the Cuban state-owned tobacco company, and the other produced in La Romana, Dominican Republic for the Franco-Spanish tobacco monopoly Altadis SA, a division of Imperial Tobacco.

In July 1935, Alonso Menéndez purchased the Particulares Factory, makers of the popular Particulares brand and the lesser-known Byron. Immediately after its acquisition, he created a new brand named Montecristo.^[1]

The name for the brand was inspired by the Alexandre Dumas, père novel The Count of Monte Cristo, which was supposedly a very popular choice among the torcedores (cigar rollers) in their factory to have read by the lector on the rolling floor. The now-famous Montecristo logo, consisting of a triangle of six swords surrounding a fleur-de-lis, was designed by John Hunter Morris and Elkan Co. Ltd., the brand's British distributor.

In July 1936, Menéndez founded a new firm with a partner, naming it Menéndez, García y Cía.^[2] With the growing success of the Montecristo brand, the firm purchased the faltering H. Upmann Factory from J. Frankau SA in 1937 and transferred the production of Montecristo from the Particulares Factory to H. Upmann, which continued to be the home of the Montecristo brand after the Revolution.

J. Frankau continued to be the sole distributor of the H. Upmann brand in the UK, while John Hunter Morris and Elkan Co. Ltd. was the sole distributor of Montecristo in Britain. In 1963, these firms would merge to become Hunters & Frankau, which today is the sole importer and distributor of all Cuban cigars in the UK.

Several books have incorrectly stated that the original name of the cigar brand was H. Upmann Montecristo Selection, but the fact that the brand was founded by Menéndez in 1935 and his firm did not acquire H. Upmann until 1937 bears this out.

Through the efforts of Alfred Dunhill (the company), the Montecristo brand became incredibly popular worldwide and to this day accounts for roughly one-quarter of Habanos SA's worldwide cigar sales, making it the most popular Cuban cigar in the world. After the Cuban Revolution and the nationalization of the cigar industry in Cuba in 1961, Menéndez and García fled to the Canary Islands where they re-established the brand, but were later forced to quit due to trademark disputes with Cubatabaco. In the mid-1970s, the operation was moved to La Romana in the Dominican Republic and released for the US market, where Cuba's rights to the brand weren't recognized due to the embargo. Menéndez, García, y Cía is now owned by Altadis SA, who controls its distribution and marketing in the United States.

The original line had only five numbered sizes, with a tubed cigar added during the 1940s, but otherwise remained unchanged until after nationalization. With Menendez and Garcia gone after 1959, one of the top grade torcedores, José Manuel Gonzalez, was promoted to floor manager and proceeded to breathe new life into the brand. In the 1970s and 1980s, five new sizes were added: the A, the Especial No. 1 and 2, the Joyita, and the Petit Tubo. Three other sizes, the Montecristo No. 6, No. 7, and B, were released but subsequently discontinued, though the B can occasionally be found in very small releases each year in Cuba.

Through the 1970s and 1980s, Montecristo continued to rise in popularity among cigar smokers and firmly entrenched itself as one of Cuba's top selling cigar lines. The Montecristo No. 4 is, itself, the most popular cigar in the world market.

In 2004, another new edition to the regular line was made with the Edmundo, a large robusto-sized cigar, named for the hero of Dumas' The Count of Monte Cristo, Edmond Dantès.

Montecristo is also regularly chosen to be featured in Habanos SA's annual Edición Limitada selection of cigars with a darker vintage wrapper and there are numerous limited edition releases of special Montecristo cigars for special occasions, anniversaries, the annual Habanos Festival, charities, etc.

In 2007, a cigar called the Edmundo Dantes Conde 109 was released as a part of Habanos' regional edition series. It uses a Montecristo blend and is believed to have a different name because of trademark right problems in Mexico.

A new, lighter-bodied line was released at the 11th Habanos Festival in February 2009. The planned name for the new line had been Sport, but because of EU regulations prohibiting marketing tobacco with sports imagery, the name was changed to Open with vitola names inspired by sports such as golf and yachting.

Montecristo also produces three machine-made cigarillos: the Mini, the Club, and the Purito.

It is often said by expert aficionados that Montecristo No. 4 is the ideal beginner cigar for those who are new to cigar smoking, and that No. 2 is the gold standard cigar as a bench mark to all other cigars to be compared to.

Tony Scott

                                                          

Uno de los grandes directores del siglo XX nos ha dejado. Parece que ha sido un suicidio. ¡Lástima! Gracias por esas estupendas horas que nos ha hecho pasar en la pantalla grande. Adiós Sr. Scott. Hubiéramos disfrutado más tiempo juntos, pero parece que su sufrimiento no se lo permitió. Por un merecido descanso.
Yo siempre recordaré entre tantos títulos: "El último Boy Scout".

Anthony David "Tony" Scott (21 June 1944 – 19 August 2012) was a British film director. His films include The Hunger, Top Gun, Beverly Hills Cop II, Days of Thunder, The Last Boy Scout, True Romance, Crimson Tide, Enemy of the State, Spy Game, Man on Fire, Déjà Vu, The Taking of Pelham 123, and Unstoppable. Scott's films were generally more popular with audiences than critics. He was the younger brother of fellow film director Ridley Scott.

On 19 August 2012, at approximately 12:30 p.m. PST, Scott committed suicide by jumping off the Vincent Thomas Bridge in the San Pedro port district of Los Angeles, California. Investigators from the Los Angeles Police Department’s harbour division found contact information in his car, which was parked near the bridge, along with a suicide note. Witnesses said he did not hesitate before jumping. His body was taken from the water by the Los Angeles Port Authority. Independent sources have suggested that Scott's suicide was caused by a recent diagnosis of inoperable brain cancer.

Scott is survived by his wife, Donna Wilson Scott, and their twin sons, Frank and Max, born in 2000.

Zorzal

                                                        

El zorzal común (Turdus philomelos) es un ave que habita en buena parte de Eurasia. Presenta dorso marrón y vientre amarillento con manchas oscuras generalmente color café. Su particular canto, que repite frases musicales, ha merecido frecuentes alusiones poéticas.

El ave se cría en los bosques, jardines y parques, y presenta una conducta migratoria parcial, ya que muchos ejemplares hibernan en el sur de Europa, norte de África y el Medio Oriente. Se ha introducido en Nueva Zelanda y Australia; y aunque no se encuentra bajo amenaza global, su población ha disminuido seriamente en varias partes de Europa probablemente a causa de modificaciones en las prácticas agrícolas.

El zorzal construye un prolijo nido de barro sobre un árbol o arbusto, y empolla cuatro a cinco huevos azules con manchas oscuras. Es un animal omnívoro que tiene la costumbre de utilizar una determinada piedra a modo de yunque donde romper caracoles. De la misma forma que sucede con otros paseriformes, le afectan parásitos externos e internos, y es víctima de predadores como gatos y aves de presa.

Significado de Latirismo

El latirismo es una intoxicación crónica producida por la acumulación de neurotoxinas principalmente alcaloides- en el sistema nervioso. La intoxicación se debe al consumo frecuente de almortas (Lathyrus sativus) y al "consumo excesivo" de lupinus como el altramuz, dado que estos vegetales poseen alcaloides (inhibidores de la lisil oxidasa, enzima dependiente de cobre que cataliza las reacciones de entrecruzamiento de la elastina y colágeno), causantes de paraplejia espástica con temblor y una disminución de la resistencia a la tracción en el tejido conjuntivo, produciéndose deformaciones en la columna vertebral, luxación de articulaciones, aneurismas aórticas y hemorragias articulares.


Ejemplo: Sufrió de latirismo tras apiporrarse a altramuces.

Altramuz

                                                     

El altramuz blanco, ^[]chocho, entremozo, o lupino blanco (Lupinus albus L.), una especie leguminosa de la familia Fabaceae y subfamilia Faboideae. El término lupín se aplica, especialmente en Argentina, a los granos de las variedades amargas. Posee un fruto achatado que suele ser utilizado para alimentar ganados. Es también comestible para el ser humano si previamente se le quita el amargor tras un remojo en agua con sal de por lo menos una hora, o si se trata de los llamados altramuces dulces consumiéndose directamente sin tratamiento previo por calor ni remojo.

La ingesta de altramuz no provoca latirismo, pues no contiene el aminoácido neurotóxico que produce dicha enfermedad y que sí contiene la almorta. Los altramuces contienen una serie de sustancias llamadas alcaloides como la lupanina o la lupinina.

Se llama «altramuz hediondo» a un arbusto (Anagyris foetida) que presenta algunas semejanzas con el verdadero altramuz.

Pequeñas mentiras sin importancia de Guillaume Canet

Film entretenido que se deja ver, con el que se pasa bien el tiempo. No es una joya pero no está nada mal.

Intocable de Olivier Nakache y Eric Toledano

Una de las mejores películas que he visto últimamente. Lo tiene todo, desde el guión; basado en un hecho real; la puesta en escena, la música; fantástica; y la actuación tanto de Francois Cluzet como de Omar Shy (soberbio). Imprescindible, es un delito que no te guste; aunque hay algunas escenas que hubieran  podido ser mejoradas; es como todo en esta vida, la perfección es un bien muy escaso.

The Roommate de Christian E. Christiansen

Con "amigas" de habitación así como Leighton Meester mejor es no tener compañeras de piso. Supongo que tener como compañero a Cam Gigandet puede ser más motivador. A mí me pasaría lo mismo con Sara Matthews. Film de intriga como tantos ya vistos que no pasa de ahí.

La princesa de Montpensier - Bertrand Tavernier.

Un nuevo film de Bertrand Tavernier. La historia no desmerece, se sigue bien, entretenida. Buen guión.

Síndromes y un siglo - Apichatpong Weerasethakul

Cuando vi el nombre del director de poco sí que me da el síndrome del siglo. Se me hace lenta. Condensada creo que estaría mejor.

Prometheus - Ridley Scott

Parece que el señor Ridley Scott ha visto el momento para volver a hacer un "Alien" moderno. Interesante guión, que en mi modesta opinión no requería la presencia del tal Alien. Algo o alguien más, algo distinto hubiera estado mejor. De todos modos, la factura es correcta, y la película resulta entretenida. Los efectos fabulosos. Para ver en la pantalla grande.

Detalles que ilusionan. Sara Escudero

Merece la pena ver a esta monologuista. Creo que es difícil hablar tú sólo durante más de 1 hora, y no sólo resultar entretenido, sino que también conseguir que la gente se ría. Bien por su trabajo.

"Nunca es tarde" Teatro

Obra de teatro interesante, amena y divertida. Tanto Ángel Martín, como Ricardo Castela se desenvuelven muy bien, y la apuesta; que me parece moderna; les ha salido bien. El humor es el centro de esta parodia del mundo actual. Absolutamente recomendable.

Ciro Alegría

                                                           

Ciro Alegría Bazán (November 4, 1909 – February 17, 1967) was a Peruvian journalist, politician, and novelist.
Born in Huamachuco District, he exposed the problems of the native Peruvians while learning about their way of life. This understanding of how they were oppressed was the focus for his novels. He attended classes at the University of Trujillo, and worked briefly as a journalist for the newspaper El Norte.
In 1930 Alegría joined the Aprista movement, dedicated to social reform as well as improving the welfare of native Peruvians. He was imprisoned several times for his political activities before finally being exiled to Chile in 1934.
He remained in exile in both Chile and later the United States up until 1948. Later, he taught at the University of Puerto Rico, and wrote about the Cuban revolution while in Cuba. His most well known novel, Broad and Alien is the World (1941) or El mundo es ancho y ajeno, won the Latin American Novel Prize in 1941, and brought him international attention.

He died unexpectedly in Lima, Peru on February 17, 1967. After his death, his widow published many of his essays and reports he had written for various newspapers. He was 58 years old.

"El mundo es ancho y ajeno" de Ciro Alegría

Es un relato con un buen tema histórico y bien escrito, pero que me ha costado leer mucho por el vocabulario tan extenso y desconocido que subyace en él. Resulta francamente difícil de leer. Hubiera deseado que fuera más asequible.

"¿Otra vez tú?" de Andy Fickman

Comedia típica americana. Lo mejor el duelo de dos clásicas: Sigourney Weaver y Jamie Lee Curtis; 63 y 54 años respectivamente; en la película han sido compañeras de estudios. Se conservan aún bien; qué se harán. Exclusivamente para pasar el rato; o para ver a la increíble Odette Annable-Yostman, un lujo para la vista.

"Country Strong" de Shana Feste

Dramón. Final trágico. No ver si estás deprimido. Se hace lenta, algo pesada. Mejor una comedia, aunque sea ligera.

"Twelve" de Joel Schumacher

Muy lejos, lejísimos de Línea Mortal, lo mejor hasta ahora de este cineasta. Floja. No transmite. Se queda en la superficie. No perder el tiempo con ella.

Significado de "Pansexual"

Pansexuality, or omnisexuality^] is sexual attraction, sexual desire, romantic love, or emotional attraction toward persons of all gender identities and biological sexes. Self-identified pansexuals may refer to themselves as gender-blind, asserting that gender and sex are insignificant or irrelevant in determining whether they will be sexually attracted to others. The Oxford English Dictionary defines pansexuality as, "not limited or inhibited in sexual choice with regards to gender or activity."
The concept of pansexuality deliberately rejects the gender binary, the "notion of two genders and indeed of specific sexual orientations",as pansexual people are open to relationships with people who do not identify as strictly men or women.
