This situation puts employers on alert Galicia. The increase in patents is due to trial July-Sande-"a greater awareness of employers to protect their R & D + i" and because they consider innovation "as a factor of competitiveness. "

Does A Virus Get Into Your Neck Muscles

A WEAPON TO FIGHT AIDS MS

present a vaginal gel that was effective to prevent the spread of AIDS
was effective up to 54% of women in a study that was done in Africa.


For

Sibila Camps A vaginal spermicide gel has shown an average 39% effective in preventing the spread of the AIDS virus, and 54% in women who used it more often. The trial, conducted by the Center for AIDS Research Program in South Africa (CAPRISA, its acronym in English) was presented at the XVIII International AIDS Conference, which is taking place in Vienna.

Women are more vulnerable to HIV infection, anatomical and biological reasons, but also cultural. Gender inequalities mean that many can not negotiate that monogamy is mutual, or that their partner use a condom during sex.

For that reason, women's organizations have been demanding for many years the development of a female contraceptive that serves as a barrier against the AIDS virus, so that the decision to care-of pregnancy and infection, is in hands of them.

The first trial of a vaginal gel of its kind, two years ago, showed no positive effects. Now the CAPRISA gel developed by the drug tenofovir, showed encouraging results. Tested for 30 months in 445 sexually active women, compared with other 444 who used a placebo, showed that women who used less than half of sexual contacts and in which they applied between 50 and 80% of the time, the average women who were not infected with the virus was 28% and 38% respectively. In women using the gel more than 80% of their relations, the efficacy was 54%.

"While not everything we had expected, is 39% more than what we had before," said Mabel Bianco, president of FEIM and coordinator of the International Group for Women and AIDS. The doctor urged Argentina to continue to improve the effectiveness of microbicides, while warning that should not abandon the current prevention measures.

The dust left by the rain of the weekend proved to be iron and silicon coming from the highlands
The day it rained
town beach
The phenomenon covered sidewalks, patios, balconies and cars. Now, the researchers found that of iron and silicon from the soil erosion in northern Argentina and southern Bolivia. recommend not to breathe dust and clean up what's left of it. By Emilio Ruchansky


marks the terrine, red-brown by the iron in the city of Buenos compuesto.La Aires metropolitan area and much of the week began with the street, the terraces, courtyards and the hoods of cars filled with an unusual white powder, yellow, orange, brown, red and even pink, according to different versions. This kind of terrine appeared after several days of rain and was allocated a hurry, climate change and then, with enough fantasy to the rest of ash emanating from a volcano in Chile. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) city government took samples and sent them to analyze "to the numerous inquiries from residents of the city and to bring peace."

Laboratory results concluded that the dust is "inorganic material, with a preponderance of silicon in the form of silica, ferric iron and low sodium. "It is the aggregate of some soil material. The iron is what is the red earth, could come from the north. The issue is that there is silicon oxide, which is what forms the sandy beach. It is important to clarify that at no time to breathe this terrine appeared in the city. Indeed, it was conveyed by the rain, it was at the height of the air we breathe, which is not harmful to health, "said Graciela Arrechea, laboratory chief of the Agency.

If you breathe the dust, she added, "Is the same as breathing tiny particles of glass which are deposited in the lungs and that is absolutely harmful." Fortunately, he added, the constant cold, damp weather these days makes the dust cling to the ground and the wind fails to raise the air. In any case, you should sweep up and dispose of land or flushing environments where they have accumulated. "This has nothing to do with phenomena such as smoke biochemistry 2008-recalled," that was a real episode of contamination, some people with allergies, bronchitis and other respiratory problems. What just happened is just a curious story of an unusual phenomenon next to it. "

Among the areas affected by the "earthy brown dust," according to the report of the APA, are Burzaco, La Matanza, Vicente López, San Martín, Ituzaingó, and in the city, the neighborhoods of La Boca, Barracks, Floresta, Flores , Parque Chacabuco, Belgrano, Nuñez, Villa Crespo, Parque Avellaneda, Villa Park, Slaughter, Villa Lugano, Villa Devoto and Saavedra. The concern has spread, silently, like dust in the wind. In the suburbs north of the match was a reminder that in 2006 showed that a yellow dust falling increasingly blowing easterly winds came from a power plant in the Waterfront, which burn fuel oil. Also There were people who believed sulfur smell and recalled that in 2008 nine people were poisoned at a school in Belgrano. Someone prophesied the coming of pneumoconiosis, a disease caused by minerals in dust.

The APA has three Automatic Air Quality Monitoring stations located in La Boca, on the corner of Córdoba and Callao and in Centennial Park. They first confirmed that the air was not more polluted than normal. On Thursday, reports the study, "the concentration of respirable particulate matter in air was detected during the day varying between values \u200b\u200bten times lower than the limit allowed in our rules (150 micrograms/m3), up 65 percent thereof, without being exceeded at any time. " At stations were also collected terrine remains attached to the ground to do after physical-chemical analysis in the laboratories of the APA.

"Notwithstanding the various mining sites, the tests carried out show similar composition in all samples," the report, which is to be ruled out "point source pollutants" and refers to the likelihood that your origin is associated with wind erosion of soil. "This has to do with the dominance of the northeast wind. This material must have been very high, the cloud level, so that he could fall with the rain, "risked Arrechea, before indicating that only the National Weather Service (NWS) can know exactly where it came from dust.

The cause of the phenomenon, as noted in a special report of the MTF, is a "dust storm" that occurred last Sunday in northwestern Argentina and southern Bolivia, while it was raining in Buenos Aires. "There were very high winds and North West sector" in the highlands, the report continues, a region characterized by very dry, "especially this time of year when rainfall is practically nil." "As a matter of illustration, in the town La Quiaca (located 3462 meters above sea level) were recorded winds of 95 miles per hour west, with reports of severe dust storm reduced visibility to a hundred meters. "

According to the movement of winds in the middle levels of the atmosphere, between 3 and 5 miles high, "much of this dust storm was transported from the highlands to the center and east of the country the same Sunday and Monday. In this part of the dust came across a low pressure, which generated a large area of \u200b\u200bcloudiness and precipitation. "In this way, much of the dust in the middle layers of the atmosphere is incorporated into the clouds in the area of \u200b\u200bdeveloping and precipitated along with the rains, "explains the NMS. It rained so arena in Buenos Aires, where many other snow dreamed as 2007.

The police and was sentenced to twenty years imprisonment for crimes against humanity
"To me no one ordered me to kill"

The former head of the Commissariat 4 th of Santa Fe Mario Facino be defended in court trying him for the murder of Alicia Lopez, in 1976. "I was unaware of the presence of that woman," she said. "I never killed anyone and no one ordered me kill. "
By Juan Carlos Tizziani



The Federal Court of Santa Fe closed the period of testing in the trial of former Police Chief of the 4th, Mario Facino, accused of the kidnapping and murder of teacher and former member of the Agrarian Leagues Alicia Lopez, in 1976. Facino and was sentenced to 20 years in prison for crimes against humanity and now runs the risk of adding a longer sentence. So yesterday used his last words before the judges to defend themselves, threw the responsibility in the chain of command, the Commissioner admitted that the 4th was an enclave where groups of tasks, but said he had "no competition" on political prisoners. "I was unaware of the presence of that woman, like unaware of the presence of all the prisoners who were there. I took the command of that sector, "he divorce. And he went further in the release: "I never killed anyone. And no one ordered me to kill, "he said. The hearing will resume on July 29 with the allegations of the complaint, the prosecution and defense, and the verdict will be announced in early August.

Facino spoke for an hour before the judges Ivon Maria Vella, José María Escobar Cello and Moses Ricardo Vázquez. Disqualified witnesses who saw Alicia López in the cells of the 4th and above all else agrees that: Raul Pinto, who assured the court that he saw his cellmate lifeless on the floor and thought he was dead. "Pinto lies", defended Facino.

However, later he considered "credible" the testimony of another political prisoner, Eduardo Almada, who revealed that Alicia was taken of the 4th station in late November or early 1976 by one of the heads of Military Intelligence Detachment 122 Nicolas Correa, an Army sergeant was recycled in democracy and was security adviser to former governor Jorge Obeid, between 1995 and 1999.

"One statement that I find credible is the de Almada" said Facino. "Why do I say this? Because it can not invent detail. He says what he saw. Credible. "Almada was another cellmates Alicia Lopez, saw when they took into the bathroom and fell unconscious. And she said that "in late November or early December 1976, Correa's came for, he took her and" never saw her again. " "The person took one afternoon and never returned," he said. The statement was incorporated Almada reading yesterday in the trial because he died some years ago in an accident.

Facino stirred the link between Correa, whom he did not mention by name, and Obeid to attack the former governor, whom he called "montonero traitor." Correa now deceased was the second former deputy secretary of Public Safety Obeid, Lt. Col. Joseph Bernhard, who "actively participated in the Army. And Bernhard, the link between Obeid and the Army. "

"This is a political party I'm going to show. I was imprisoned when he was president of the municipality of San José del Rincón. In 2004, he won the election but could not finish the term in 2005 because he'd turned the Federal Police and from that moment I am in prison so far and I do not know how long. And that part was very influential political Obeid, "insisted Facino.

President of the Court responded: "I do not want to prejudice their rights of defense. But I ask you please try to limit this to the facts of the case, "asked Dr. Vella.

"I am a political prisoner, has no doubt he complained Facino. "Obeid was a traitor all his life. That man would ever be involved in these cases. "

already very nervous, Facino pulled out a folder with papers that attempted to show in court. "That has nothing to do with this trial. Save it, "the judge cut him Escobar Cello.

"It's important that people know," complained the accused.

- Make it known by other means! Not in this audience! Escobar Cello-challenged him.

- newspaper clippings about the town of Rincón either?

-No. Everything you want to know about facts that have nothing to do with this case has other ways to make it public. Do not use this audience for demonstrations on issues that have nothing to do. You are charged with certain facts, "he reminded the judge Vella.

Facino then returned to pull the chain of command. "The Army prisoners, without exception, entered through the garage and took them directly to the cells." After he complained because he was the only defendant in the case. "None of those in prison." And the other that he should share the bench-Correa, is dead. He added: "We were policemen in civilian clothes walked ever, ever. Always with the police uniform and identifiable things. Not like the thugs walked, those of the famous gang. Does anyone believe that if I knew who it was that people would not have said? Please, "he lamented.

Carlos Robledo Puch, Sierra Chica
The shadow of the black angel

Jorge Fernández Díaz
THE NATION

The prefect of the Sierra Chica prison did not want me to go with hands empty, so I offered to Loco's Hammer. Not a bad bite. It was a serial murderer who had terrorized the country to surprise his victims on the bed, came through the windows and tore them a head blow. But I had traveled to Olavarría to see me face to face with the largest black myth of the history of Argentina, and was very young, did not accept substitutes. The prefect was sincere: Carlos Eduardo Robledo Puch had not received any journalist in thirteen years in prison. To a reporter who had written a letter asking him for an interview, he had sent word that only you would if you bought a Scania truck. I was twenty years old, was crime reporter and had read to Soriano, who wrote an article in La Opinion anthology without having met the multiple murderer. I still remember myself in an old file of the General Hornos street reading those faded and rough cuts which saw the angelic blond boy who unexpectedly Olivos had committed eleven murders, seventeen thefts, a violation and an attempt, an indecent assault, two rapes and two robberies, and that a misunderstanding with his partner he had killed and burned with a blowtorch face and fingerprints. He did not realize that hidden in the back pocket, the victim kept his identity card, the police made the obvious connections and arrested Robledo Puch. I also remember the day he escaped and was alarm throughout Buenos Aires, as if a monster had broken the chains and I wandered through the streets bloodthirsty. He was recaptured a few hours, and in 1980 was tried and convicted by the tribunal of the Board 1a. Chamber of Appeals in San Isidro. "This was a Roman circus say Robledo said. Someday I'll go out and kill everyone. "

Five years later he was confined forever in a tiny cell from that maximum security prison. Do not want to see anyone and spent his days in the gay flag. I simuláramos proposed to prefect a guided tour and take me to his cell. walked through doors and gates, and we got into that galaxy cold gray granite surrounded and guarded by hard eyes and rifles. A stronghold dominated by an indescribable smell. The smell of the beasts. We entered the hall and walked noted that corridor peering through small windows gothic infamous men who survived in the shade. Each prisoner was a violent history and mournful. The official told me the door of truth and ordered it opened. I saw in a flash how Robledo Puch pulled the bunk bed and stood at attention facing the authority. It was not the freckled boy, buckwheat, and sinisterly childish photographs. It was now a mature subject and spent by the disaster. I tried to shake his hand. I pressed it gently, with an unexpected condescension, and listened to my arguments, which seemed an improvisation: "We are visiting the prison, but I love to chat with you, Carlos." Robledo did not mind, I asked him to wait a while. The governor drove me to the round building that overlooks the mouth of the pavilions and suggested I wait for Robledo in a room that was smaller than an elevator. I thought, with tachycardia, if Robledo was aware of my intentions would pull me over and my eyes tear. But I swallowed hard and put up with for a while. Combed and equipped with a recorder and folders, type closed the door and started talking to gush about God, the prophecies, the cherubim who visited him in his cell, the absolute innocence of all crimes with which he saddled and curse that had fallen on those who had condemned: lawyers who were hit by a train, witnesses who had committed suicide, people who were killed or died of horrible and sudden illnesses, and other biblical plagues. Interspersed in their stories, recorded prayers of evangelical pastors who pronounced his sermon, and asked me again and again to try to understand the subtext of these admonitions. We spent four hours standing, side by side, united by their searching gaze and speech screeching and hypnotic.

the end I went with him to his pavilion. Shuffling was poor and ragged beggar. I said shyly that he would write something about all this. We said goodbye. Tortured in a fit of compassion, I stopped at the entrance all the money I had in an envelope with your name. Upon returning to Buenos Aires I felt dizziness, headaches, paranoia, fear and shame dry by having all these feelings. For years I also felt a sort of sticky web who accompanied me and not leave me in peace. It was one of the strangest and most traumatic experiences of my professional life, and went back to remember every detail of that nightmare a few days ago, while devouring The Black Angel, a book just released amazing journalist Rodolfo Palacios.

This experienced writer of nonfiction, which belongs to the new generation journalist, traveled dozens of times at Sierra Chica and engaged a much longer and deep with the man in the dark legend. The dialogue that plays through the pages reminded Silence of the Lambs and disclosures that gloss does not cease to amaze. The scenes unfold. Robledo writing a letter to Galtieri and doing everything possible to be sent to the Falklands War. Robledo fantasizing about robbing a bank and commit the perfect crime, and dreaming of your release and happen to Perón: "I will call young people to lead a revolution." Robledo Puch is now a neo-Peronist able to announce to the world in the way of Cormac McCarthy: "It will come (faster than slow) in an era of cannibalism? This phenomenon will occur when there is shortage on the shelves for the reasons they are. The world will be dominated by insects. The war will begin in prisons, where they will fight together. "

The allusion to cannibalism and fighting mindless prison is the echo of the Easter uprising of 1996 when a group of convicts took 17 hostages and killed eight inmates. It is said that playing ball with the head of one of them and that made the other in mince pies. Robledo Puch ran to the yellow church with his Bible in his hand and locked for days to avoid falling prey to hunters.

Forty-five letters he wrote to his biographer black angel, who counts among surprises how a famous neurosurgeon tried to subdue a frontal lobotomy Robledo, and how he later lost his temper and set a fire in the Sierra Chica carpentry: "He got glasses, a blanket layer and shouted:" Make way, I'm Batman and fly away! "." Palacios described the scene in which he confesses that sought Robledo win a million dollars for Hollywood to sell its great history. The plan was to seduce Francis Ford Coppola, Quentin Tarantino or Martin Scorsese, and be played by Leonardo DiCaprio. "I committed the sin of laughing at his crazy idea", says the chronicler. He hit the table, clenched his teeth, looked at me with hatred and declared: "You're an ignoramus, a timid, a timid and cowardly". "

Despite the horror of their crimes, the delusions of their dreams and their menacing mood swings, Palacios could never see it like a hyena. always maintained a humanitarian view and tried to really understand why an ordinary kid from a wealthy neighborhood had become a multihomicida. His strenuous unpleasant encounters involving requisitions and Robledo finished writing it down as a "friend" and touched by her fate. At the end of interviews used to tell the reporter this significant phrase: "Watch out, here is a hell inside, but outside is worse. Much worse. "

Palacios's work is exciting, and plays two very high when he realizes that no one ever in Argentina will sign the Freedom of the psychopath, however appealing again and again and show good behavior. And then when it breaks with its own story, the dean of the medical examiners, Osvaldo Raffo, who also had long held with the murderer in the courts of San Isidro. "It was not an easy opponent," confesses Raffo thirty years later. Psychopaths are manipulative. The wanted me to play cat and mouse. " Palacios asked the expert: "Do you think that if it comes one day return to kill?". The expert does not hesitate: "Did anyone encourage to free from the cage because it is very old lion who does not eat? ". And that's when the reporter perceived that Raffo again those verbal duels with headache, upset." I found that spending so much time with that character, which distills evil from every pore, I was intoxicated. It was not a human. I felt an uneasiness, something inexplicable. I had gotten into his soul and his mind, had fallen into hell? Be careful, Palacios. I do not know if it was his piercing eyes, the evil halo around him or something mysterious. But surely you are going to feel weird things. "

Reading that common sense actually afflicted afflict the reporter after the doctor returned to that distant afternoon in 1985 when I tried that same cloudy jelly of evil around him and I could never forget. The black eyes of an angel follow you forever. © THE NATION

Madrugada February 1991 in the camp "Geolamas" Marambio Island, Antarctic Peninsula.
The words were in the tent. "We were talking and breathing condensed in a way that seemed to fog, "says Dr. Andrea Concheyro geology." I'm dying of cold, I told my companion that night. And I said: "There can be if the sleeping bag support? 30 ° C. In this, look at the thermometer and marked? 36.5 °," he adds.

What did? "Holding. Putting together a little mats for warmth. It is horrible to sleep with cold", described as a story about one of his sixteen scientific investigations carried out in a tent the coldest continent on the planet. He's been almost three years, 32 months to be precise, to live surrounded by ice, which separates a synthetic canvas awning not more than two meters high by as much area. This is their home each summer. She and her team, a handful of researchers, are taken by plane or helicopter as the hidden site frozen territory to explore. There are left and will be sought two months later, after they collected material to rebuild the marine environment in these latitudes more than 60 million years.

always been in a tent in Antarctica, even his first expedition in 1989 when he was 25 and was carried test. The team camped four hours' walk from the Marambio base. "I'm not female base, but Camp. Is the absolute freedom," said vehemently and not hide his passion for his work over nearly three hours of interviews. Sitting in his laboratory at the University City, surrounded by papers, geological samples awaiting analysis, she turns to her computer again and again to show photos or graphics to help you understand your story. Teaching soul, enthusiastic laughter, she had no children only exhibits her coquetry to wear with pride, almost mother-shirt that gave her students. Without makeup, her face expressed no traces of polar storms, but two fingers of your hand Freezing sensitivity lost as a result of remaining minutes without gloves outdoors in the cold south. Of unstoppable verbosity, Concheyro seems accustomed to doing several things simultaneously without losing the humor and with the energy of the pioneers.

Indeed, in his first trips were very few women who dared to reach the southernmost destination in the world, let alone in a tent. "In my stay at the Antarctic Institute have never been discriminated against for being women. Always-accurate I was highly respected by my peers. It is difficult because it is frankly an environment of men. This meant that the girl I had to say no feats but almost. Show unbeatable. A break could not physically or psychologically, but then you went to the tent and were dead until the next day. On the other hand, must show that engaged in a course of conduct, and hold it over the years. This is what gives all the credit for people to respect you, you consider ".

the first day of a new life
Antarctica, from the Greek 'antarktikos", "opposite the Arctic", is actually the antipode everything that humans are accustomed. A continent where land claims have been frozen, are prohibited nuclear testing, as well as bases for military purposes and waste radioactive. Men from countries where old grudges work together. Indeed, it seems this planet a territory where only seeks to maintain peace, develop science and protect the environment. It could be called Utopia and would do honor to his name.

apparently stepping on his snow-covered ground is a passport to unexpected sensations. "You get there and you're another person, for better or for worse. It's great. You can not put into words. It's something that feels. Somehow the existence of God, for those who believe," he says while the idea came with his arms, his whole body and still one second while her brown eyes leaking above the lens in search complicity.

is not uncommon for the early hours of arrival take the visitor to shake, either cold, emotion or excitement to a strange and fascinating landscape. "Nobody comes and goes in the Antarctic, just as it was" secure from the Department of Geological Sciences, Faculty of Natural Sciences at the University of Buenos Aires, where he always arrives aboard his unmistakable Land Rover, blue and white, model 80. While this daily trip around the city can be an adventure in battered 4 x 4, will always be very far from matching the journey to arrive at the white steppe.

"The first day you get to Antarctica? Indica-one dies of cold. We leave Buenos Aires with 40 degree heat to Rio Gallegos, Santa Cruz. There he boards a Hercules aircraft and six hours and you're on base Marambio, a? 10 º. That is, in less than a day through a temperature range of 50 degrees. "As head of the group," Andreita "as they call those who know the past twenty years in these latitudes, it takes under its responsibility for all procurement two months in camp. tents, fuel, backpacks, sleeping bags, food, tools, radio equipment, generators form part of equipment supplied by the Argentine Antarctic Institute, Directorate General of Antarctica.

Following this where they face forced climbing all elements of logistics as well as friends or old friends, it is their final destination. In the 2009 season was the James Ross Island. To reach this area is necessary to do so by air. "You have to go through? Points-the Weddell Sea in two helicopters. It is forbidden for security in a single device, because if you fall no one survives more than three minutes in those frigid waters. If this happens, another helicopter goes immediately to the rescue. "

back on terra firma, it all begins deployment of equipment. A land all charged with lung and arm. Bedroom carp, carp laboratory, kitchen tent, toilet tent and the national flag, that "I" says "in the handbag to install it as soon as we arrived." A housing complex in the middle of nowhere or the whole, to be overcome temporary deaf, without thunder or lightning, winds of seventy miles per hour, hard snow and furious drag given the speed, known in slang as a blizzard Southern or blizzard.

helicopters and just go back in a month to refurbish the equipment supplies for three to six researchers who will be left alone for two months. "Since the departure of Buenos Aires until you put the tent in the middle of nowhere, takes two days without sleep at least. For there are three in the morning but it's day. Just a twilight between midnight and 2 am. At that time, all I want is to rest, but you have to tie everything in a matter of hours because the weather changes, and the blizzard or blizzard destroys everything. In these circumstances I ask: Who sends me to come here? Then you miss, "he says.
Smoothie ice

The place chosen to set up the tents in the James Ross Island varied as climate change." We were going to put the camp in the same place where he had made ten years ago but the melting ice is not allowed. We had to run it a lot and install a 300 meters high because there was no space to do on the coast. There are glaciers retreated ten years a mile. It's awesome. From the first time I went to now, climate change was such that I'm in shirt because we have 14 º, compared.

The effect of temperature increase on earth melts the ice and upsets, creating situations unthinkable just A few years ago. For example, as the team always kept under the ice in the open the box of 20 kilos of meat for food and places a flag to locate the position where the need to eat. "We had to change the site because dissolve and ice is exposed, without cooling, "he says.

Almost all the white continent is covered with ice, if it disappeared entirely, oceans would rise by several meters its current level. Today, Antarctica acts as a cooler Earth and regulates both ocean currents and global climate, says. Also retains much of the globe's fresh water. She drinks it every summer, and is not an easy task. "Making Water" is part of daily activities. "Spades ice and load 20 or 30 kilos in your backpack. Then you climb a hill to the camp and put it in the" brunette ", a pan fire, it melts.'s Actually distilled water, as you have no salt You should replace food sweet or savory. When you return to your home in Buenos Aires paranoied you follow the care of the water and you use only the exact amount. Do not waste because it gives you the idea of \u200b\u200bthe work it takes to get "points out this woman very short hair, not very high and essentially practical.

Similar work is required to take a bath. It is necessary to heat about 15 liters." I have a shower head where the water is loaded tibia. On the floor is a small channel for the drain, "he says. It usually choose the days of little wind so that the heat of the heaters it is perceived in the tent. Then wash the clothes in a basin and hang them in the shop-laboratory because overseas would be frozen. Workday


At half past seven or eight o'clock the day begins. "Sometimes you have to be very brave to go on the morning of the warm sleeping bag, because it can do? 18 degrees or so inside the tent. It's a tough time," he says. Not the only instance difficult, it remains out to the tent-kitchen to prepare breakfast while heating with heaters. If the weather is bad stay at the camp. Seize reading, loading data into the laptop that runs on generator power, to classify the material that will bring back to the mainland or start writing the draft of a scientific paper. Will also play at cards or dice. "Sunday can be a Tuesday or Wednesday because? Explains the rest day is the storm."

If good weather dawns prepare backpacks with tools and meats along with drinks for a frugal lunch one day be cut from ten to twelve hours of field explorations. For safety, always come in pairs, never alone for there is always someone who can give notice in case of emergency or to help the rescue. They can walk four hours dodging cracks and ice bridges to get to where you take fossils, rocks and other samples to piggyback the camp. "Charge 20 or 30 kilos or you can handle in the bag.'re You and your backpack, is part of your body, "defined without complaint. This transport difficult, sometimes it's the end of a previous work hard." The last summer? recalls did excavation on a slope 300 meters high and which could not given the inclination to stay standing. Tired shot came back to the tent at about 10 or 11 at night. A cook, wash dishes and sleep. Twice a week you can talk to family or friends for radio "sums.

Today, the team travels on foot which was an ocean millions of years ago." I study calcareous nannofossils are shells of algae that formed part plankton in the last 195 million years. When the algae dies, plates fall to the bottom of the sea and that is what we discussed "he says. Anyone could walk past without being fossils draw attention, however, specialists valuable data obtained from them." We know the conditions of the oceans past such as age, temperature, salinity, depth or level of oxygen. It is rebuilt as was the ecosystem. By knowing the past climate change, can make a prediction for the future. "

James Ross Island holds a unique treasure." That area? Indicates, is a watershed of 6000 m thick marine sediments representing largely of geological ages. If you could walk without stopping could learn all the Cretaceous geological history (125 million years to 65 million years). That is, it is 60 million years bounded by 6 thousand meters. It is a unique sequence for the Southern Hemisphere because of its ".

Sometimes fully engaged in the field, watching a black bird, a storm petrel is the signal that should return rapidly coming to camp because" pesto or bad weather. Sometimes there is no bird of ill omen, but the accumulated experience of years of campaigning on the white continent, which captures perceptions inaudible to the newcomers. "You see the ice and there's something you do not like. You say to your team that we must return. It is not uncommon for younger you say, "Why should we go back, if you're cute?". Two hours after a snowfall rises impressive, "he says.

The difference between being a visitor and Antarctic seasons are more experienced in this cold desert. The body goes to see, hear, smell or develop ways that neither knew had in the big city, but there are awakening and help the survivors. Is it animal instinct or knowledge applied? The truth is to be the Antarctic is being integrated with body and soul to the white steppe.

"I was born in Pompeii, four blocks from the Creek, "he says as if to prove it Buenos Aires by birth but by adoption Antarctic. After three years, his father, a surgeon with whom she now lives, led her to make their first steps on the mountain and enjoy the community life of the camp. "I lived the spirit of small-group solidarity. I know what you do not do it, hump to the other. Your life depends on the other and you have to have confidence in him. Or, conversely, if your partner falls into a crevasse , I have to save until I can die trying, "he stresses. The relationships are tested to the point that the results are extreme. "I went with friends and lost friends. Instead I went with strangers and friends came back for good. Anything is possible in Antarctica, "he adds.

Imagine for a second live for two months with their colleagues and unable to return home with their affections. For 24 hours there will be coexistence Extreme discomfort everywhere, a hostile climate and very few for work hard. Who to choose for such an experience? "It's a big problem. A brilliant academic, but a bad person? "Good but not very prominent person professionally? "Good person, good professional but vague? Human combinations are varied, and to raise the question about why he prefers, he replied: "After twenty years I learned that the important thing is to go to a good person." Of course, only in Antarctica each shows who is, and there are previously unknown facets of itself.

"is a place that you find yourself with yourself. Such views will always lead to a reflection, a personal balance. It is an experience so strong that when he returns there is a change in thinking. In each, the Antarctica will feel differently, "he says. Holidays


Each February 22, the day of Antarctica Argentina, Concheyro repeats with the fervor of always the same ceremony. "With or without blizzard sing the national anthem together with the flag and say a few words," he says. Hear ye mortals, the sacred cry of a handful of Argentines who feel proud of it. The ceremony was complete with a steaming dish of lentils with chorizo. "Well Rico and Argentina," he says.

await that day happier. It is the birthday of her sister who lives in New Zealand. "Now I can say hello from the satellite phone, whose use is quite expensive. The service is free only for emergencies but not for personal matters, of course," he notes.

Now comes the return date. In the white continent, daylight hours are shortened from 31 January and seven minutes before it gets dark the previous day. At the end of February, at 21 am and is dark. It's time for goodbyes. Two nights before the final withdrawal, the party finale: homemade cannelloni with white sauce, flan with dulce de leche and a "champagnecito" for the toast. "I prepare a speech where he spoke of the characteristics of each, a balance of two months spent rods and harmonious flags for delivery to the uninitiated, a kind of diploma Antarctic," laughs remembering. Lift

camp, load everything in the two helicopters that went to look and take flight. From the air, there are traces of what was his home for two months. And that's the idea, to preserve the best possible environment. "When you replicate, is a mixture of joy and sadness," says Concheyro. Never wants to return to the mainland, unless you learn that a loved one is needed. Passionate

paleontology, Antarctica, and grateful for his fate, she is on hand with life. "If I die today, I'm done. I've been extremely happy. I learned to feel what is to be in full. What I felt there had not felt before. I want everyone to have this experience. People begin to see their true potential because here is subject to many pressures and you do not behave as it is, "he says. Is that in its opinion, this continent selected kindred souls. "In the world we live in is very difficult to get in tune with people who have the same values. Antarctica is decanted to the people and remain so which are on the same page lifestyle. This makes a very fraternal community, "he says.

WORTH MORE THAN AN ARTICLE ON CHAVEZ

Chavez aggression New
rupture of relations with Colombia, prepared by the president of Venezuela, is a litmus test for the Unasur
be convinced of the commitment as the first secretary general in the brief history of the Union of South American Nations (UNASUR), Nestor Kirchner would make history with a decision that goes beyond their sympathies and interests: to Hugo sidewalk Chávez.

is not possible that, contrary to what Chávez calls "aggression" by Colombian "tolerate" in its territory to guerrillas in the country associated with drug trafficking, the Venezuelan president himself convene the ministers of UNASUR and, in turn, joyfully announce the breaking of bilateral relations.

are too serious objections raised by President Alvaro Uribe, soon to be happened on 7 August by former Minister Juan Manuel Santos, to be released with a decision of that magnitude without showing an ounce of concern for them. Not be ruled out that the decision to seek Chavez actually distract his people from the disastrous economic situation which has led to his regime, one of the world's highest inflation.

While Lula's government offered to mediate in the dispute and the Permanent Council of the Organization of American States (OAS) called on both sides to "calm the spirits" and dialogue, this new circuit between Venezuela and Colombia a litmus test for UNASUR and Kirchner, never willing to remain equidistant if Chavez was in the middle. It is now, then your big chance to prove it has the steady hand to dispense with their affinities and play with dignity the role it deserves.

is not the first time there is tension between Colombia and Venezuela. Relations had deteriorated in recent years by the alleged presence of 1500 guerrilla Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) in at least 87 camps on Venezuelan soil and affection shown by Chavez to some of their leaders dead, the legendary leader, Sureshot, and a their immediate subordinates, Raul Reyes, killed by Colombian soldiers on Ecuadorian territory.

In this new escalation, the United States government, a factor of division between them for their decision to send troops to Colombian military bases took sides with Uribe decided and reiterated his usual criticism of Chávez for failing to "cooperate" with the fight against "drug trafficking and terrorism."

feel free of guilt and by the Venezuelan president should be willing to cooperate with the international community rather than offended by the alleged evidence of the presence of the FARC and National Liberation Army (ELN) on its territory.

By breaking diplomatic relations with neighboring Colombia, Venezuela has ordered a state of "maximum alert" along the common border. That, according to Chavez, is a sign of dignity. Show more dignity if, with open hands, be sincere to the world and expose their real ties to the FARC, which is known since before he became president 11 years ago. Tension with

Uribe has been constant since 2005, frequently called the ambassadors for consultations. This, in diplomatic language, means being on the verge of breakdown. Has happened so often just as, by dint of not always doing the same, Chavez now has a break before taking that step.

Beyond temperament that can be both outgoing President Colombian and Venezuelan president for life care, most of all, that two fraternal peoples are not carried away by mutual provocations and a clarification of the grounds for believing the other.

Santos is about to assume. Chavez is an opportunity missed was determined to advance, arguing that it will have with it better relationship with Uribe. Their unwillingness to rebuild the bilateral relationship is alarming. In that Kirchner should mediate. To overcome this test of fire, show that falls short of occupying a position he accepted. If not, many will wonder what it is for UNASUR.

GUIDE PERFORMANCE OF ABORTIONS

CLARIFYING THE CONTROVERSY OF ABORTION GUIDE


First, in order to provide an appropriate framework for this article I'll start by saying that define abortion is the procedure by which produce voluntary interruption of pregnancy with the resulting death of the fetus inside or outside the womb. Causes and conditions may be different but as an explanation of the same exceeds the terms of the present paper fails for later or for the curious reader research of concern.
In this case, knowing already the subject on which I will review the protocol I will circulate the government and provoked a series of controversies over interpretation of Article 86 veteran of the Criminal Code of Argentina. Thus this protocol is to be comprehensive and cover all cases of rape which would be nice if it had been articulated in a more consistent and tailored to the reality we live every day in our country.
At this point such a protocol or guide establishes first non-punishable abortions, understanding it as such those where real and present danger the life of a woman and no other means other than abortion. It may well be performed in order to avoid the above danger to the lives of women and in both cases, there should be appropriate medical study. Continuing
, and this is where the dispute occurs, allows abortion for all cases of rape and cases of indecent assault of a female idiot or insane. As you see this guide bisects the interpretation of clause 2 that Article 86 of the Code of the Fund with the sole purpose of covering all unwanted pregnancy cases arise from a violation by
The treaty thus far does not lead to more questions because in everything is located within the legal logic that makes the solution of the problem as demand will always have the medical opinion to ensure the existence of danger to the life of the pregnant woman to continue her pregnancy or the pregnancy is within the categories of idiot or insane. However
the case of rape of a woman who is not within the categories mentioned the biggest problem occurs in response to this guidance only requires affidavit of violation or the relevant police or judicial complaint on the subject. This is where we should establish the scope and convenience of an affidavit or a simple complaint. With regard to the affidavit must establish that it will only be viable when women use their full authority to tell the truth and actually become pregnant by the activity of one or more offenders for which occurs while the medical abortion responsible should the necessary means for the preservation of the fetus for possible future tests that must be done about it. Do not forget that case, the rape, a crime for acting physician should notify the police or justice on the illicit production. Subsequently, women who have abortions should provide all the necessary considerations about the identity of the perpetrators and the circumstances in which the crime occurred and was reported origin of abortion.
With regard to the complaint, whether judicial or police should follow the usual procedures and I'm not so sure that this instrument will serve per se to have an abortion because in this case acts a competent judge who will be entitled to consent or not abortion in question and is in my belief that knowing the existence of a judge to consider the crime any doctor can act without his consent, do not forget that this guide is only an administrative tool that can not by itself change the letter of the law which must be made through constitutional mechanisms that we live in a state of law.
The letter talks about the criminalization of abortion not drifting in the doctor's responsibility to decide if the case is mild or not within the budgets of non-criminality. I believe that the doctor can determine if there is a danger to the life of the pregnant woman is raped or not, but never able to establish whether the affidavit is based on truth or simply a mechanism to hide the need for abortion through pregnancy unwanted sexual relationship based on a voluntary and loved. This is the main point of controversy because if the pregnant woman lies the doctor not only an abortion banned by law but the woman requesting the abortion by affidavit based on false facts incur invented the crimes envisaged by Articles 85 and 88 of the Code of the Fund. Being realistic and recognizing it drives our society and the lack of consensus on the issue and the exact moment in which sex should occur in addition to the existing taboos about single mothers it is likely that most of the affidavits melt on false facts and cover up only the unwanted abortion by law.
The solution must be found, certainly in Congressional activity aimed at modifying the law that prohibits abortion accompanied by dissent or social consensus in a civilized manner and openly religious or moral be asked to discuss the inappropriateness or appropriateness of the solution abortion.
