Letters To Penthouse Read Online

One year a lost cause the res publica

I was missing that no voice was lifted from Anthropology against a chain Four program entitled "Lost in the tribe." This product is insane is that three English families installed a season in three remote locations, including Neolithic and half naked people, and gain acceptance among their base to learn to hunt with jungle machete among other skills. Ultimately be a "tribal council", an exact copy of the jury that both are now carried on television, who rule on whether the objective has been achieved and, therefore, whether or not there prize money.
I do not know if the reality is having success with the ratings, but the fact is that the thing has lasted several weeks, a sign that at least is making good progress.

Well, on the website of Institut Català d'Antropologia finally appears today to reject a text accompanied by a request to cancel the broadcasts. ICA joins the complaint of a foundation which cooperates with the Bushmen of Namibia and has been breaking the television juggernaut that context. The list of complaints, both those made by these institutions as they could be added, is very long y, de tan elemental, casi da pereza entrar al trapo con ella.

Quizá sea tirar piedras sobre el propio tejado de esta causa perdida, en la medida en que contribuyo con ello a la visibilidad de tal engendro televisivo, pero me decido a incluir aquí un enlace en el que el lector puede ver algunos de los vídeos emitidos. Creo que es suficiente para hacerse una idea del nivel subterráneo, tanto desde el punto de vista intelectual como humano, del dichoso programa.

Pain On Both Sides Of Stomach



Por si a alguien le apetece molestar un poco a la administración pública exigiéndole que sea realmente pública, copio aquí el alegato en pro del software libre que acabo de enviar to the Tax Office :
Dear Sirs Tax Agency,

I just checked with surprise that, when trying to install the program on my computer FATHER, this is only compatible with Windows operating system. This keeps me from completing the tax return via the Internet and forces me to speak to an office, some time since I decided to work exclusively with Linux.

In my opinion, government should lead by example and stop favoring a multinational like Microsoft for free software tools, that not only are more appropriate for a public service while independent private profit, but also offer higher quality. Sincerely

,
