The gatekeeper


In the city had a palace surrounded by a beautiful garden that was visited by every traveler who for business or pleasure trip simply approached the population. This site was a guard who cares about keeping everything in order. Park walked every road and every corner of the palace in search of anything that should not be there, in their opinion, he considered all the grounds as their own.

did not like the presence of visitors. I thought that rattled a lot and break the silence and peace. Although he had no choice but to support them, precisely because it depended so he could live in a wonderful place and special.

But if you had someone who could scare without regard to whom he had a special hobby: the cats. That garden was very attractive to those little animals who were behind it always running and able to demonstrate their skills as hunters. In the basement of the palace, sometimes leaving some mice that were his delight and the garden was full of restless birds that not only served as food, also served as bait for training in their exercise of hunting.

The watchman knew all this and more effort was to catch those elusive hairy cats. He had no compassion when he could give chase. For him, it was hunted cat dead cat.

One day he appeared in the garden an old bent and wrinkled than walking slowly approached the guard and asked if I wanted him to take good fortune. He looked at her with contempt but was a bit boring as agreed. The old woman asked for her hand and then slowly moving his fingers over her soft voice said: "If you keep killing cats, end up by becoming one of them."

The guard broke his hand quickly labeled her crazy and told a sudden movement the old woman who the hell out of there and stop this nonsense. The old woman lowered her head and went away muttering a litany of the guard could only hear the last words: "It will be sooner than you imagine."

That night the guard felt a pain in the chest whip and he fell to the ground. When neighbors came to help him saw that nothing could help him, was dead.

His body lay lifeless, but the energy emanating from his spirit soared so high that came to the place where the spirits rest. Once there, a powerful voice denied entry while he scolded his sullen attitude to humans and how they had shifted their frustrations getting screened pay to cats. He had killed many as she could, and did not kill, they made life impossible. So I would have to land and purge his guilt. But you would not man's body, again with the body of cat.

When he learned gave him a good tantrum, not wanting to be a cat, all keen to be a man and return to his palace and its garden. Although he was not given the first when he agreed to the latter, so he returned as a shredded cat, gray, with snow-white chest.

that that was not much consolation, but had to settle. With what did not was that his job was already occupied by another guard who does not like cats, and if not mistreated, not let them sneak into the garden. So the poor man sat beside the door with the hope, at least you can glimpse a bit of flower bed, sniffing the fresh scent of the trees or hear the boisterous chirping of the birds every time someone opened the door. He spent much time in that place that came to be famous. Nobody knew why he was curled up next to the gate, was a mystery, but their presence was not lost on visitors who eventually calling it the "gatekeeper." And there is still waiting for the time they can squeeze and enjoy the place he remembers as wonderful.

Average Baby Size By Nationality




The man has always been a maverick and as such always want what you do not have or can not do. It was created to walk on land but envious of the freedom he seemed to have the birds wanted to fly.

Watching the birds thought it was easy to achieve, the end of the thing was just putting on wings and arms move up and down with energy and give you a little extra boost may jump from the top of a mountain to take off more easily. Not if they first began the first tests or legends to be paving the way towards that dream flight, but known is the legend of Daedalus and Icarus.

As everyone will remember both were imprisoned on the island of Minos and the only way I could escape was in the air, so without thinking twice built a wings covered with feathers and wax Hala! to fly, but Icarus against the advice of his father, was careless and flew too high as the sun approached the heat of the melted wax in his wings and missed this, farewell flight, fell into the sea and lose their lives thud of such history is full of flights both real and fictional.

existed Apart from the legends that concern real people to rise through the air like Archytas, Plato and contemporary character of those of old who knew everything, was a philosopher, mathematician, astronomer, statesman .. .., who created a contraption with wings with the who wanted to fly but without success.

Concerns had also Leonardo da Vinci, but I think he only did research for a few inventions but never attempted to try and I think rightly draw it is one thing and another climb to those inventions that often only coscorron lead to secure, as the air screw can be seen in the drawing and is considered a precursor of the helicopter, which apparently had only managed to turn in place like a top.

Despite the many failures and bump, the man stubbornly continued to fly and emerged the various ideas and projects and appeared in the eighteenth century balloons to rise, rose, but could not control, well, that most of the wind depends on the ability of the crew. This was arranged and constructed in the nineteenth and airships.


Two other well-known figures on the subject of flying are the Wright brothers, Wilbur Orbille and that is true are the ones who opened the door to aviation and not only invented also built and piloted.


All these characters are well known so I do not dwell More on the explanation because I would like to talk about another I do not think is as well known but also has merit. I refer to Diego Marín Aguilera.

Diego also dreamed of flying. Born into a poor family in Coruña del Conde (Burgos) at an early age had to take over the family through the death of his father. As the person responsible responded well to their obligations and though he had many studies was smart and enterprising and also had a knack for inventing devices to facilitate the work themselves and others, was what one could call a handyman, he devised a contraption that improved performance mill, which still Arandilla stored on another machine bound for mills, one for sawing the marble quarries Espejon and sure many more.

But their concerns were not there, felt the need to fly as did the birds flew into the sky and he watched her while she was devoted to grazing and reached a point where they decided to undertake the enterprise. Birds studied in depth, the movement of the wings and tail, made a calculation of weight and length of the wings, and when the studies were completed on paper approached the village blacksmith and with your help prepared a framework Articulated the wings and put foot stirrups. After years of preparatory work had time to realize his dream to fly.

The May 15, 1793 was the day chosen to test his invention. Accompanied by some friends climbed the highest rock and from there apparently was launched successfully vacuum, but one of the bolts that held one of the wings broke and Diego was to come up with their bones across the river, discovering perhaps what would later be called hard landing. It is true that did not reach the target it had set, but that was lucky enough not to let life in the attempt.
Some say crazy neighbors ended up taking him by burning his invention, others may feel that her family was afraid that if they repeated the experience, the results were fatal, made him promise not to try again. Apparently not know the cause, died six years later, perhaps wanting to fly if only in spirit.

in 1993 to commemorate the bicentennial Diego flight, the Air Force Coruña del Conde donated to a plane that was placed in the exact spot where Diego was roped to realize your dream. And near the archway entrance to the town was erected this monument in memory of the feat.


The flights continue and now I think no one is surprised that invent invent anything and I think the latter is the solar airplane that has already been tested successfully, we will know more in time to come.

Fly Our life



I think our life is the most valuable thing we have and so when it suffers because of an illness, fought tooth and nail to regain health and lengthen as much as possible and we have only one.

Thanks to advances in science are becoming more remedies to achieve that aging when it was believed that it was near the end, and one of these advances is the transplantation of organs that can replace more and more positive results, which can be damaged.

But all worth to get? Is it right that to regain our health require otherwise healthy people are donating part of his body at risk for them to lose theirs? Is it just for wanting to remain in this world taken the lives of others?. Maybe I missed by these questions, but I came after reading in the press what Jeremy Chapman, former president of The Tansplantation Society, a company has just awarded the 2010 Prince of Asturias Award for International Cooperation with the National Organization Transplantation of Spain, reports on cases that seem incredible as this article was headed by Paul Alvarez in the newspaper The New Spain.

"Tomorrow I will not go to dialysis because shots will kill my donor and I go to transplantation"

seems that this case occurred in China and that anyone can not believe it but I'm beginning to have my doubts that things like this not be true, and if true I think the only transplant he deserved that person, the doctor, the broker who got the body and gunman was to go to the nearest jail.

some time are those that have rumors of organ trafficking business, rumors that it seems impossible to be certain, but we all know that money can move mountains and can not ignore that some people to prolong their lives or that of a loved one, close your eyes to what that is fair and open only to see what's good for them no matter from whence they derive the organ they need.

As I point out, money catches a lot of people, some because they have it and he wants to buy what they need and others because they do not have it and sell whatever of doing so, well that seems logical, not criticism, but what happens when those organs for transplants are not transferred on a voluntary basis? What happens when organ transplants become a business that makes lots of money?, Displayed as intermediaries, people who do not repair or the patient who needs it or the person who will serve as a donor, they only see money, large amounts of money, a good part for him and partly to buy wills of people who somehow can work with information or in any other way to help achieve the aim.

Apparently there is evidence that in China sentenced to death organs were removed without his consent or and this leads me to wonder what if the sale of organs gives so much money, it can happen that will increase those sentences to death?

As I said before, there has long been rumors of people disappearing, including children, and are used to extract those bodies which are then sold at great prices, officially there is apparently no evidence for As these stories become urban legends, but knowing the greed, evil and selfishness that rules the world, I'm honest, I do not surprise me that these things happen and I established that I would love to be wrong.
