The game has gone on sale in Japan today. Level-5 as data points on the expectation that they have received more than 600000 reserves the cartridge and is expected along this Christmas play put many more units. Without doubt the star of the console launch DS ahead of Christmas and a farewell to this great estate-little wonder that the console has been facing the most imminent departure of its successor, the 3DS.
The Master and his works: The Catalan-Aragonese army in the conquest of Valencia ... Reflections in a year
Sometimes fate is capricious. Try be short in the narrative. ;)
In the aforementioned Master of Heritage I'm studying at my University, there is a module / course on Culture and History Valenciana, well, each module each student must do work (15 to 20 pages). At first I did not choose, yes or Medieval Ancient History, Ancient squares and then flew Medieval by little, I took the last place.
This week I went to tutoring with the teacher of Medieval to plan the work with a few ideas as possible about jobs and what he thought needed to be undertaken. Such as this:
-Sharq-al-andalus/Valencia as territory crusade. -urban governance system of Valencia, possible influences of Aragon and Catalonia. (This was not very clear as it could develop. I'm on this).
And finally I put a case, I thought, "why not?, Can be very interesting, and so do a nod to the general recreational," not was another issue: "The army Catalan- in conquest of Valencia in 1238.
After that the teacher, with his charming voice of smoking (and I hate stating the snuff) said "The army catalanoragonés be right."
! Takes! "!" Did not want soup?!, Take two mugs! "ill wind that blows no good.
concrete would work on the composition of the army and weapons, understand why both the army of Aragon, his militias etc, Catalan, and I hope to also include orders military and overseas crossed, or what self-respecting (and yet I have not entirely clear). But all in how limited a work of 15-20 pages, which must be delivered in February, and I do not I have to cram to documentation because it is a thesis or anything, just a job. Hehe.;) seek I recommended that Robert Ignatius Burns literature and Pedro López Elum. I for my part I wanted more.
now I'm using (I do badly on purpose bibliography). Martí de Riquer I consulted "L'harness knight" and "medieval knights and their weapons," e Robert Ignatius Burns "The Croat Regne de Valencia". Especially now I'm tangled up with "L'harness knight" Riqueros Marti, among many pieces of weapons and descriptions capmall, perpunt, crow, Cervellera and others. ;)
I have more works that I took from the library but will consult, about many of the conquest of Valencia and issues and certainly known by the reenactors "The evolution of medieval weaponry in the Castilian-Leonese kingdom and Al "Andalus" Alvaro Soler del Campo.
Sorry if I quote the literature well, and I quote all the references, is that while I was writing thought "what if someone you copy? Internet is too big" and well, if not put anything more concrete until it is finished and delivered.
If you have any work that you can recommend me because I sure would appreciate some aspect of Army weapons or let me into the inkwell. ;)
just in case I'm also looking to see in the forum that there Regi Fidelis sure sack good information.
I am consulting (for internet and books) also paints Alcaniz Castle (which if I remember correctly is contemporary to the conquest), the house Berenguer that are in the museum of Catalonia and the Barcelona Palau del Tinell. Sometimes leading to confusion if the latter two after the conquest and I do not know for sure which items are contemporary and what remanence (eg Riquer is an image that says that a type of sword is from the late thirteenth and those details right now I do not know to appreciate them.)
I assured that I will learn much with this odd jobs. ;)
For the moment I think I have nothing more to tell. Well unless any adventure seamstress "medievaloide" must be currently "on air" because I have to deliver by February 3 other work more than 15-20 pages, 4 papers in total, and you better over time, so this completito bridge will be studied. :)
Oh and I leave you a funny video. I've thought of this video because this morning we visit the Master (4 short hours) through the historical center of Valencia to see the remains of the Arab wall of Balansiya and see various examples of heritage conservation, to discuss good and bad actions with regard to the historical (although it is more bad than good) among others.
Many people in Valencia or suspects that there are traces of Moorish walls, so I encourage you to visit as much as if you are in Valencia and beyond.
The video is a joke, so it's forgivable that says Torres de Quart and Serranos are yours when constructed in century XV century and the end of XIV respectively. ;)
you to spend nice weekend and good bridge of the Constitution everyone. :)
PD: Okay, perfect!.
I thought there was something I sounded the theme that he would try. Fidelis turns out that Jesus spoke in his entry of a book on the army of James I and of an author who had taken the next book ..
running time, since a year ago that started the blog. A year that has given as much or look for very little.
will review what has been a year and reflections on various aspects of my life that I highlight in the blog:
- "Armadureo", "recreation."
can not say I do recreation, not really consider myself as such.
I started the house through the roof, I can not deny, attracted in principle (like so many others it can happen) for doing mail, but after the excitement of going to see the event Teruel I relaxed more, I read and looked much more on recreation, to try to go slowly and well (if possible).
Besides being a student of history and a degree in history, I prefer not to settle for dressing up in something historic, if I have to do this is almost better to do "good" and that this involves a learning task and historical analysis ( as analyze a historical text) which is a cognitive stimulation and in turn rewarding (albeit in the long term, best to do things slowly and well, as I said before).
I have returned to raise my situation, after the furor of doing "little things" a man of arms, today prefer to dress in civilian clothes, I think is the best and most comfortable. Dress as a soldier, I can make you more impressive, but it's uncomfortable all the equipment and it is wrong to go all day "soldier." I have yet to clear the "character", when the day, I would like to "recreate" but I thought some things.
Teruel
After I have done nothing, or armadureo or medieval dress. Remarkable is that only went to see the "Living History" of the military museum in Valencia on October 3, where Ferrum Aliger recreated a small camp and Isildurio XII century had warned me to be. It was gratifying view and in turn talk to Isildur. The experience gave me some encouragement to consider new "projects" that if I have to follow an order should be shorts, pants and shirt, I looked at other patterns and I have not yet started and maybe some of it would be cheaper I bought Instead of having to do it myself, I will see. I have to be clear to do this next year if it were to Teruel and how.
With the equipment that I have, finally, I think I've said before, not very good either, but it's something. The churro-synthetic leather shoes, the gambeson of canvas, Cardone Leonardo's coat (which looking at your site, do not know if it could be considered correct or not), round shield (which I've done it too heavy), the mesh ruff and both crespina of canvas. All improved, with linen and wool in between, hehe. I forgot to mention that rencontre an old hatchet and I will try to restore it and disable its edge, although I'm not sure how. ;)
"As for people I know through the blog:
That means, in part I have to thank many things, among others that follow the blog. The warmth of Jou, Axil's wisdom (which perhaps unwittingly, has become "master" of many in these matters) and Iagoba (of Iagoba, I read things Forum Fidelis, or the facebook group "A Medieval recreation quality," and all concimientos impresses me, is a "crack."), advice and reviews of Dark, Grey Knight (Ramon de Luna ) Isildurio, Alfmogavar etc ... and the rest who have participated in the blog or who are subscribers and still quedais me to know, thanks again. And if I left any, apologies. ;)
Thank you all!
My dibujilloos are some children perhaps, but hey, give some good atmosphere.
hehe Hehe, buscaos, that maybe you are. Also leaves the orc pin, with pin as a shield (hence all) and his sword broken, and flanecillos (which have all to become pets.) :)
univeristarios -Studies.
has been a year to get me 12 credits of free choice between history and practices of Japanese and do kendo in college. A year can be considered "spoiled" because it has not taken all that was due, and I've noticed in my intellectual capacity has declined in part.
Luckily now I return to the "action", hehe, since I'm studying a Masters in Heritage, and this will involve interesting intellectual challenges, both in the studio and on the practical. ;)
-Miniatures Lord of the Rings.
has also been a year loose. Participated in a tournament here in Valencia in March she visited people in Zaragoza and Madrid and that is welcome, otherwise I have not seen anything to play. On the other hand is very expensive hobby and I "I am poor," almost 8 years ago everything was a lot cheaper, GW has sent prices through the roof and is almost a luxury item. I have the same thumbnail as before, and if not let me have the compis. If not a bargain, do not purchase anything.
And now, to finish what is a classic other blogs when they meet years, see the strange things people put into google and lead them to your blog. Lol. I was waiting for something worse, really. jejeje

But generally, there are many searches on "armadureo (cloth or mesh sleeves, gambeson etc), Roman inscriptions and breakdance cap, ceramic designs and some LOTR.
to here today, again, thank you.
PS: forgot to say that Saturday was in The Sixth another crazy film like that I mentioned two entries ago and faced a knight against a pirate, because this week was even crazier, a " Spartan "(Hang on to the definition, or hoplite, or peltast or homoioi or perieco or helots," Spartan "plain) against a Ninja. already has milk thing, because they do not know how they come up with ideas to mix combat types as different and opposite moments in time away from each other as well as geographically distant. But a hoplite that is heavy infantry in close formation, against a "warrior" (if you can call it that) intended to espionage, assassinations and other missions etc ... as they are totally different contexts.
And another thing that does nothing to certify that when there are complaints about the lack of precision of certain current productions of historical fiction, these should be taken into account, and do something because they create false images of historical events which are then very difficult to erase in the minds lack of knowledge. And the case was in this documentary that already call it a hoplite "Spartan" ya, smells bad, but then if it appears in the documentary with elements film 300 (that I know that Frank Miller is a comic inspired by the events, but there are people very cortita!) because we are poor, such that some Spartans went to the hulls of the film, had hoplon lambda painted in red similar to the movie and on top of highs, a decision is seen as shouting "Aaauuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu" as in the film, giving a false vision and influenced by fiction. Luckily wore greaves, bronze armor and some other Corinthian helmet that but think it would be a total joke.
Anyway, I see this documentary embarrassment, and the only thing it interesting is the evidence of weapons against mannequins. I'm not the smartest in the world, I know many people better than me, but to make things as "rare" do not know who hired me that surely I do best. XD: P
to another.
Edito a 6-November-2010: These have become the sixth to make the documentary of weapons, but from today I can not complain, today was Spetznas Green Berets against Soviets, I mean, the context of the Cold War, all very correct and interesting. ;)
On Monday I was watching to see the premiere of Antena 3, Hispania, without much faith that I had just like it.
did not see much over half an hour, shortly after the slaughter that deliver the Lusitanian their weapons. Could not stand to see more, frankly, I did not like, for mistakes and things that squeak when he saw her and other things I'd rather not dwell on cite.
Well, what the hell? tonight I've been seeing a bit (the second chapter), I put up something else, but because I said to myself "think of it as fantasy and not historical fiction, but reached a point I have not put up with, is that even being of fantasy I would have liked, because I think the players have given their best for the tiresome use of A3 to put boys and girls 'fashionable' to attract more public, that the Lusitanian only have the name of Lusitanian Viriato and Cesar (if Paulo is Latin, Persian name Dario Alexander is Greek, Theodoro more of the same) (do not have a hard time naming Iberians, Celts, tartésicos etc ... are not rare that it could be a name of elf or orc) and most things you'd rather not waste time citing as many appear in the criticisms I have seen on the internet about this series and I usually agree with them, but. ...
..... prefer a deep breath and say, "Do not fret, it's fiction." Maybe the next time you can see a little bit like it.
often disgust Anda televisions pending the hearing, both T5 and A3 are matched its series, the princes and Hispania, and both yesterday and today as children were proclaiming that his series had gained an audience with the other (A3 said that he had Hispania won, T5 said he had won his) ... anyway ....
------
As I was saying at first. On Monday, after leaving to see the show, I started to do something more happy and fun, draw a cartoon. And this is what I drew, has something to do with the series, as a simple criticism without malice.
Annotations to
comic:
falcata I say is "neologism" I have understood it as coming from "falchion" and "spatha" and not used in ancient times to designate the sword although "falcatus" is a Latin term which refers to the shape of things sickle, maybe I'm wrong. Ras
! signario is Turdetans.
tyrophatina The Roman custard or do not know how they are, so I put some current. ;)
Finally, we see the positive, the question is a laugh, (although not very funny comic. Lol). Can I see it could be more comic currado?, Surely ...
Maybe I have inadvertently created two bichillos that could be another dog of Hades Pushpin. Hehe.
Bridge Building Columbus Day, and since it was in the village of my mother, I was on a visit to the nearby fortified castle and the village of Moya.
(The castle comes in a cover image of this blog).
Moya is a municipality belonging to the province of Cuenca, Castilla La Mancha, Spain. It consists of four hamlets, orchards Moya, Pedro Izquierdo, Santo Domingo de Moya (where the town hall) and El Arrabal Moya, which is situated at the foot of the hill on which is amesetado Villa and Castillo de Moya (uninhabited since the mid-twentieth century).
been years since I was expressly to visit the Villa and Castle, his condition was ruined though by then (to make 5 or 6 years) were beginning to restore some parts of the whole . Today, it is still standing (functional), the Church of Santa Maria and the City, there are also restored parts (doors of the wall of the Villa, the door of the castle walls ...), others in process restoration, and so many others continue to ruined because the set is very broad.
As part of that restoration and enhancement, interpretive signs have been placed at points of interest within the enclosure and wooden fence to serve as a route to visitors while protecting the debris.
Reportedly the area (and for years I've been listening), the castle is owned by the Duchess of Alba, but in turn also said that his property was transferred to a public body (do not know if a ministry, the Junta de Castilla la Mancha, the council of Cuenca or whoever).
And like any Castillo far as I know this comes mainly from oral memory or any information you have read somewhere, and no mistake giving vague aspects in the following I will "copy" literally one of the posters explaining the relevant information set (do not know if you need permission or not include such information), since it is much more precise than any that can give me.
A little information if any of our readers would like to visit friends. Moya
road is 104 km from Cuenca, about 60-70 km. of 134-137 km from Teruel and Valencia. I
I leave a map. And if not, search Google Maps. ;)
Landete
's above, marked with a green circle.
And now I show you photos and information. I can not give the whole set because, oh! Bad luck, no more battery in the camera and let me shoot a lot, anyway, if you've already boasts a second part with the remaining information, as to go with either company could take me almost time to visit things.
At the entrance to the exhibition is the first poster for information. It is to these images.
Note the map of the Villa de Moya, with a route marked for the sights and attractions.
On the other side of the poster:
On the left two drawings of pottery pieces profile photo of the interior, both are tile. On the right the image of Don Andres Cabrera and Beatriz de Bobadilla, first Marquis of Moya.
And then the following information. Quote:
"The village of Moya was declared a Historic-Artistic Site in 1982, sits on a hill with an approximate area of \u200b\u200b140,000 m2, which gives it visibility strategic position. The first traces of occupation dating from the Bronze Age and Iron Age fort must have been an important Iberian as deduced from the findings ceramics. In 1176 the Moors quoted Moya along with Alarcon Basin and entered the lands of Uclés, which was of the Order of Santiago. However, the archaeological evidence of a fortified settlement hisn-Arab medina, or city-on Moya are very frugal when (poor).
Until 1183 there is a determined attempt to repopulate the land, one of the archdeaconry Condec Basin by Bishop Janes. In 1210, King Alfonso VIII granted immunity to village, leading to the breaking of the truce with the Almohads. The ensuing battle will be settled favorably to the Christian side in the battle of Las Navas de Tolosa.
In the courts of Valladolid of 1351 Moya was mentioned as "Puerto Seco", ie the site boundary where breast all the goods from the Realms of Aragon and Valencia, which explains the richness and importance This villa purchased in the late Middle Ages. Therefore, it was coveted by Don Juan Pacheco, the Marquis de Villena, "that laid siege in 1451 with little luck. It was confirmed in 1475 to Don Andres de Cabrera, the husband of Doña Beatriz de Bobadilla, waitress Isabel la Católica. Five years after the village and its lands promoted to the rank of Marquis.
late sixteenth century, the medieval urban landscape is transformed into the English convent city property to build the building of the concepts and almost all the reformed churches. Definitely be abolished in the 50 century XX. "
Following a little later there is a poster with a map of the town with timing of construction phases. It is to the next photo (something wrong done by me).
doing I ate the wrong picture of the information, so I will detail the construction phases if not to find good photography.
in red: First enclosure or Albacara . From 1183.
In green: Second precinct. From 1213.
In blue: Third precinct. Built in the S. XIV as evidence Teruel ceramic pottery.
in black: Fourth enclosure or car doors and Campus Customs.
In Pink: Fifth Coracha enclosure. (This I've eaten something in the photo. It has a square tower.)
in yellow : Works of Don Andres de Cabrera.
In brown: Puerta de la Villa. ------------------------------
But instead of following the route marked on the map, I another and enter through the door of San Juan.
Photo
door of John (second compound wall.)
At the foot of which took this photo. While the parties differ restored. In the background the church of San Bartolomé.
--------
Hence I went to the Castle.
where he found his feet the following information shown in these pictures. Quote:
barrage.
"falsasbragas or barriers that begin to proliferate in the second half of S. XV, are the direct consequence of adapting the traditional medieval Poliorcetes new media storming gunners. To be complicated pieces of fire to raise the lofty towers and halls of the castle, we decided to build these antermurales perimeter where they would stay the camera shot, and protect them from a normally dry ditch excavated in the natural rock.
Castle Moya has two barriers, a deck looking into the Albacara and housing the main entrance. Rather than to protect themselves from external threats, such barriers were designed in response to violence against the nobility which proliferated during this period. An armed revolt by the population of the town could at a stroke depriving the Marquis of his most prized possession, so it is conceived that this could be reduced by the cannons to keep them at bay, while taking measures to restore order.
The entrance to the barrier was protected by battlements and a bridge drawbridge, towers were decorated with blind arches, and apart from its pockets are notable for the existence of firearms espingarderas laptop. In the barrier which faces the Albacara be seen firing systems that show the influence of Poliorcetes system that was then being built in the royal castle of Media del Campo (Valladolid). "
And a detail photo to look better as was the wall in the early twentieth century.
Here photos from the door of the castle wall.
The main tower, is currently Tower closed because it came out a crack, and although the views from above are worthwhile, it is best to be closed because it is in danger and thus avoid a further deterioration of the interior which in itself is damaged by graffiti today.

Photos from a hole in the wall:
Another photo of the area Albacara behind the castle (first room).
picture from the door where you see the Villa.
After this. Driver! The camera battery ran out.
In case you want to know more and see more photos:
that with this link I could have saved the blog post, since they are dedicated people in body and soul for the preservation and study of Moya, only that the site has parts that are "under construction", but once completed will have everything you want to know. I have only to thank the great work they are doing.
PD1: October 3 Sunday I went to see a new edition of Living History, which organizes Military Museum of Valencia, warned by Isuldurio (thanks;)) since the Aliger attending Ferrum. I'm aware that the friend with whom I spend my photos to hang (the photos were made with mobile, hence it takes.: S)
PD2: This Saturday, October 16 evening in the Sixth made a documentary about weapons and armor ... bufff ... Creepy!. I did not like anything, but horror!. Was American, and you know how are minimally related documentaries in U.S. history ... with much to be desired (a few are saved.)
To summarize, this was a meeting of "experts" (quoting countless times) style arms weapons testers CoolSteel (or whatever they are called, yes, those who cut pigs, boards and caught everything to prove how tough are the swords that make for self-defense) that debates about what weapons were better, if a gentleman of the fifteenth century (yes, yes, how wide is the century) or a pirate, and which one would win a hypothetical fight. "Dude, your hacker has nothing to do against my knight in armor." Hahahaha.
I was already in tatters ... hehehehe. Sure! Taking historical accuracy!, Where is the historical context behind each type of soldier? hahaha, something worthy of little or no historical basis.
such locurón partly forgive the cliché that says U.S. arms love.
jejejeejejejeje
the end if there was a hypothetical reconstruction of the battle, and worst of all, he lost the knight. XD.
Sparragos Jack reminded me that appeared in the medieval Teruel (except that instead of the thirteenth century, the knight was XV). Hahaha. What folly!
Release from the Episcopal Conference of Guatemala
"We know in whom we put our trust" (2. Tim. 1.12)
1. The Bishops of the Episcopal Conference of Guatemala, meeting in Extraordinary Plenary Assembly, we have analyzed the situation in which is now our beloved country. We have done from our pastors heart, eyes lit by the light of the Gospel and from the contact we have with the reality of communities.
We found several situations that concern us deeply,
a. Agatha storm, this storm and other natural phenomena have caused great destruction due to the extreme vulnerability of our country, the result of environmental neglect. Much of the roads and many bridges were destroyed. This became clear how many of these works were carried out without compliance with all requirements. in different parts of maize and bean crops were lost, which seems to indicate that in the coming months there will be food shortages. more unfortunate was, as reported by some media, that not all donated resources came at the hands of those facing the greatest need. Even at the present time there are communities that are still waiting for the help they need. It is true that there were numerous solidarity actions but we must also say that lacked a committed response from those who could have helped more.
b. The increase of violence: It hurts to see that violence has grown. In the first half of this year there were about two thousand murders, most of which have gone unpunished. There is a close relationship between common crime, poverty and organized crime. In marginal urban areas there are "gangs", groups of heavily armed young men, organized hierarchically and without any moral compass or love for the lives of their peers, willing to engage in savage violence. About five thousand estimated number these gang members organized into 300 bands. Supported by the corruption of some members of the PNC, commanders, officers and troops, agree and respect "free zones" in which they operate with impunity. It is also true that in many cases the police are honest and responsible very vulnerable because they are known criminals and threaten to kill his family if they oppose. A study civilian intelligence there is a well-organized criminal structure which is difficult to distinguish between high-level officials, business leaders, heads of gangs and former military, to ensure a comfortable lifestyle have been involved in illegal activities . In this situation of violence we hear many voices shouting that the application of the death penalty is the only solution. We are absolutely opposed to this approach from our faith in the gospel and knowledge of history. The gangs are the result, among other things, of deep family breakdown, poverty and misery, lack of love. These young people have to offer all necessary support so that they discover that the meaning of life is love and not violence. also demand that the Guatemalan Government to implement the recommendations made long ago in the National Agreement for Security presented by the Assurance Group. C.
Weak Implementation of Justice: The lack of implementation of a true and fair justice contributes to increasing social breakdown and creating political instability. The absence of justice or the delay in implementation promote many seeking their own convenience or their very personal interests, acting with a total lack of principles and values, reaching intolerable levels of corruption. Undeniably, the usefulness and necessity of international assistance to promote capacity-building processes of justice. So far, success stories like the murder of Salvadoran deputies, diversion millionaire in Congress, non-return of the millions stolen officials and judicial proceedings against him, not moving, show what we say. D.
the lack of truthfulness: the absence of truth is becoming more apparent. Dominates the art of lying at all levels of society. Triumphs that can lie more convincingly. Various media do not transmit their messages attached to the objective truth. A powerful symbol of the power of what constitutes a lie which is now offering a teaching on human sexuality by private companies and NGOs distort the true meaning of this treasure by which human life is transmitted. E.
A profound and progressive damage eliminating ecological and biodiversity in many areas of Guatemala: We are witnessing the relentless deterioration of the environment. Lack a true ecological culture in Guatemala. There are bad habits, deeply ingrained, that litter and pollute and damage the environment. We express our communion and our support of Bishop Alvaro Ramazzini and his eminence, Cardinal Rodolfo Quezada, in their repeated interventions by noting the damage that occurs to continue with open pit mining and oil drilling in the protected area known as Laguna del Tigre. Now is to iron mining in the south coast. They, along with many sectors of civil society and affected communities have given warning of the damage that mining of metals may occur, including social conflict and harmful effects on health. Despite these approaches, there is a media campaign, shrewdly driven, which makes it look as good and desirable that can not be justified in any way. The pretext is to show that the most important thing is to attract foreign investment does not matter if it destroys or respecting the natural wealth of our country. These non-renewable assets are there in our country, were given by God for everyone's benefit and not as marketable goods by State and companies without too many scruples.
f. A weak democracy with weak institutions also is a reality, proclaimed to all voices, that our democracy is weak. We know that there is no perfect political system, but this does not justify trying to maintain a system that marginalizes the majority of the population the right to a dignified life and favors the interests of minorities who have traditionally wielded economic power. Any system political and economic development must promote the common good and promote the development of the whole person., the image of God. Unfortunately the political class in our country has lost credibility and people distrust it because the actions they take shows that are more interested in their political games of power that the good of the nation. The executive branch ignores the demands of the indigenous and peasant sectors, pushing them to seek other means that are not conducive to good governance. The roundtables have been convened in dialogue useless because the Executive has been unable to meet its promises. Also while spending millions of quetzals Social Cohesion programs, many health centers and hospitals do not have the resources to provide the required services. The legislature engages and spend their energies on meeting their lust for power and selfishness, putting obstacles and walking very slowly in drafting legislation to ensure peace in Guatemala, viz. Rural Development Act, the Mining Act, the law on asset forfeiture, the adoption of the crime of illicit enrichment. The judiciary, with the lawsuit filed against the President of the Supreme Court, which is accused of "misrepresentation" is a significant in consideration of who is holding the application of justice.
2. Testimony of Hope:
Amid this difficult and challenging scenario, we, the successors of the Apostles, we witness with the Apostle Paul: "We live always tight but not crushed, but not desperate hurry, persecuted but not abandoned, knocked down but not finished off (2 Cor. 4,8.12). We say this with all conviction that the Lord Jesus Christ lives and is present in our communities. Firmly proclaim that God's love is faithful and does not die. We are confident that the idolatry of money that has corrupted our country, generating many evils and finished with so many human lives, is no stronger or more powerful than the love of God poured into our hearts. " Therefore, we urge everyone, believers and nonbelievers, to make of our history, staff and community, with faith in the Word of God and the new life that has been placed in us, a story of salvation. We strive to offer young people who are the majority in our country a better future. Soon, the first Sunday of September, we celebrate the national day of prayer and support for migrant brothers. Increase the misfortune of deportation, migrants need our support and assistance. The urge to live in each diocese and vicar and the Prelature of Esquipulas this day of prayer. Let's be generous and help materially to the efforts of the Episcopal Conference of Guatemala does for them and them.
We end this statement calling for Mary in her title of Our Lady of the Rosary for her to intercede for the suffering people and is she who calms the pain and grief of those who suffer the loss of their loved ones as a result of the violence that the country experiences and encourage the efforts of all those who seek to build a country full of peace and prosperity.
ask that this statement be read in all parishes. Guatemala, 26 August 2010.

"I went to Living History Military Museum Valencia in early July of Roman theme.
early July, I majored in history, after being at last the notes of a paper presented long ago that was pending correction. 124 (or 132) euros to give you a rather nice piece of paper we'll see what it does, say, low.
"The second half of July I've been on an archaeological dig, 15 days, the same as at Easter, as a volunteer, in an Iberian which much remains to be extracted.
After that I went to parties in the village where my mother and I'm still here, you have ADSL and take the opportunity to post something interesantillo. And the week after the party gives to rest and visit interesting places and sites of each new bags to check out new things.
This place is an ethnological collection that has a village resident. Each new visit I sack out new things and better value, because they are not junk, that's how it used to value them, are nevertheless material culture of our ancestors, a form of samples life that has disappeared or, in some cases, is about to disappear, and historical and cultural value (among others) should not be underestimated.
Because, you better make history when you have material to do it, you complain and ask "what are we?" When there is nothing to study (read destruction of archaeological sites, loss of the historical, literary, material culture etc) and having to break his brain research.
Ah!, I roll it up!.
I said, the visit this time has raised interest me the pieces that I will show that in fact may interest readers of this blog.
Before that a little reflection, sometimes getting into an ethnological museum shows the dire living conditions of our ancestors, so I can not complain about the standard of living that we have in our country, even with crisis, our great-grandparents would have laughed at this crisis.
In the village of my mother, esparto could take only when opening the closure for collection, the people rushed to his collection in his later work.
not explain the working process of the esparto. Only once twisted, this is going to make the sole and once finished, the other parties.
Its development was costly in time and effort, but the hard work in the field, the sandals would last a week which had to be constantly arranging (mending) or could not be reused arranged esparto fibers for other uses.
one can well imagine the progress that led to the reuse of tires for the soles of our grandparents in the early twentieth and if there were.
And this is special. A wooden shoe, from the province of Castellón.
"Do not lie without knowing a thing, try to follow strictly the phrase, is that like so many other things to know about, in the village my mother grew hemp.
in the collection were several elements of the production of hemp thread.
In this image, hemp, and hemp cardadera (I suppose to remove the woody part and extracting hemp fibers). And a spinning wheel to spin (I think that's what the right).
leather leggings. I do not know if they are a soldier, horseman, hunter or whatever.
a whetstone.

a cart to transport rocks and dirt. And that is what had to be poor, that the house you built with the help of your neighbors and then you will help them make their own, so he had a cart to put all working together, what else?.
blacksmith bellows.
This is not the village itself, this is the people it belongs to the village.
I am told, was in very poor condition, has been "restored" with painted among others, and sky (instead of leather). This was a wooden structure inside the badly damaged, so tidy as it could have been very difficult since its total restoration.
Ensenada According to the census of 1752, citing the existence of a blacksmith in the village and give me an edge on teeth if this were the bellows, but do not think so, too many years.
I hope this humble post I liked it. Every day I'm going to be taking more respect if the material heritage of our ancestors a hundred years ago, two hundred, a thousand or whatever.
Oh well, another extra. My grandparents, the little I have saved a plowing Romance and plow, are to be restored.
This is my last post in this blog. The trick Hoimi table and the guests seem ideal finishing touch to say goodbye. There are still things to say, yes, some bosses Vintage their strategies, over 50 downloadable quests, bestiary, etc. I am aware of this, but I'm exhausted. The forum will now be your refuge.
I brought every secret the game that I found, but not much else to say. If you enjoyed as I explored everything that this Dragon Quest has given him, then we have a double cause for celebration. To all those who you come here every day, I thank you for your loyalty. Few weeks have been good, huh? I, for one, I've enjoyed. It took me a good memory of people who have washed up on my page.
