New artwork of Wonder Man by José Luis García-López (surely an in-joke to get such an obvious Superman artist to draw Wonder Man). Schematic for Wonder Man's jetpack by Eliot R. Brown.

Venezuela en la geopolítica regional y global. Por José Ernesto Novaez Guerrero

Venezuela es víctima en estos días de una nueva ofensiva que busca desconocer los resultados dimanados del proceso electoral ocurrido el pasado 28 de julio en el país, así como la institucionalidad soberana de la nación. El imperialismo norteamericano, en aliaanza con la ultraderecha local e internacional, no ha dudado en apelar a viejas tácticas, que van desde el reconocimiento a presidentes…

Permaculture and urbanism have had little to do with each other for decades. That’s got to end if we want livable cities in a livable world. In this episode, I lay out why and how permaculture and urbanism are aligned, and why and how they must merge.

With an honourable mention to electric blue Superman and the many Clois relationship dramas.

de GUATEMALA a GUATEBUENA en el MUNDO del CARIBE

Guatemala se asoma al caribe por un hueco por donde le entra el sol. Siendo yo Caribeño, me siento a una con ella. Todos nos caracterizamos por esa alegría que nos brinda el clima, sus playas y sobre todo por sus gentes bronceado en oro (regalado por el sol) en la que ni la pobreza es capaz de borrar nuestra sonrisa, muchas veces compartida con el ron.

Vamos a ver tres aspectos de Guatemala sin ser una enciclopedia. Un Cortometraje, música y algo de su literatura.

Estudiantes guatemaltecos presentan cortometraje “La pesadilla de Cortázar” (guatemala.com)

Estudiantes de la Universidad Panamericana se encuentran promocionando su cortometraje titulado «La pesadilla de Cortázar» y aquí lo tenemos para que veas el trabajo de estos talentosos jóvenes guatemaltecos.

La dirección estuvo a cargo de Jordy Pérez y fue Mónica Juárez quien se encargó de la producción del material adaptado del cuento «Casa Tomada», del autor argentino Julio Cortázar.

Sinopsis

El cortometraje inicia con Cortázar, dormido y soñando con la historia de «La casa tomada»; en esta, dos hermanos son expulsados de su propia casa familiar a causa de “algo” que se va apoderando de ella, desplazándolos poco a poco, por todas las habitaciones de la casa, hasta llegar a la calle.

Los hermanos viven solos, tan solo acompañados por lo que se apodera de la casa. Realizan las tareas de limpieza juntos, cooperando por igual. No trabajan — el dinero les llega de los campos que, posiblemente, poseen — y explotan a sus trabajadores. En vez de hermanos, su relación parece más bien la de una pareja bien avenida. Los dos se caracterizan por no evolucionar su carácter a lo largo de la obra. Siempre se comportan igual, siguiendo la rutina del día a día, como ajenos a la situación que están viviendo.

Al final del corto, Julio Cortázar despierta de su sueño e inicia escribir.

Mira aquí «La pesadilla de Cortázar»…

La letra del Himno Nacional de Guatemala es original del poeta cubano José Joaquín Palma, y la música fue compuesta por el maestro compositor Rafael Álvarez Ovalle en 1897, con motivo de la realización de la Exposición Centroamericana del gobierno del general José María Reina Barrios.

La letra y la partitura fueron impresas por primera vez en la revista cultura La Ilustración Guatemalteca, en donde apareció el autor de la letra como Anónimo.1​ No fue sino hasta en 1910, cuando ya estaba en las postrimerías de su vida, que el poeta y diplomático cubano José Joaquín Palma confesó que era él el autor; el gobierno del licenciado Manuel Estrada Cabrera lo premió tanto a él como a Rafael Álvarez Ovalle con coronas de laurel de oro en las Fiestas Minervalias de ese año.2​

Por orden del presidente general Jorge Ubico, en 1934, algunos cambios fueron hechos por el pedagogo José María Bonilla Ruano a la letra del himno ya que la misma era muy guerrerista y reflejaba más a la guerra de independencia de Cuba -en la que Palma había participado activamente- que a la Independencia de Centroamérica. (wikipedia)

La música tradicional guatemalteca tiene orígenes en la antigua cultura maya, cuyos elementos se fusionaron a partir del siglo xvi con componentes de las culturas españolas y afro-caribeñas. Esto está representado en la marimba, considerada instrumento nacional, que contiene elementos conceptuales y constructivos provenientes de cada una de estas tres culturas que forman la base de la cultura guatemalteca.

Ron Unz joins José Niño for a deep dive into the forgotten history behind America’s anti-Communist crusade. Far from being a mindless witch hunt, Unz argues that McCarthyism was a chaotic but justified reaction to earlier left-wing purges—many led by Jewish activists and institutions—during the Roosevelt era.

Unz explains how McCarthy’s rise was driven by ethnic resentment, particularly among Irish-Catholics, and how Jewish involvement in both Communism and anti-Communism has shaped the historical narrative we’ve inherited. Unz challenges sanitized accounts of the Red Scare and exposes the power dynamics that still define elite discourse today.

Eighty-eight corporate leaders endorse Harris in new letter, including CEOs of Yelp, Box

Eighty-eight corporate leaders signed a new letter Friday endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris for president.

Signers include former 21st Century Fox CEO James Murdoch, Snap Chairman Michael Lynton, Yelp boss Jeremy Stoppelman and Ripple co-founder Chris Larsen.

If the Democratic nominee wins the White House, they contend, “the business community can be confident that it will have a president who wants American industries to thrive.”

WASHINGTON — Eighty-eight current and former top executives from across corporate America have endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris for president in a new letter shared exclusively with CNBC.

Among the signers are several high-profile CEOs of public companies, including Aaron Levie of Box, Jeremy Stoppelman of Yelp and Michael Lynton, chairman of Snap

. 

Other signers appear to be issuing their first public endorsements of Harris since she became the de facto Democratic nominee in July.

They include James Murdoch, former CEO of 21st Century Fox and an heir to the Murdoch family media empire, and crypto executive Chris Larsen, co-founder of the Ripple blockchain platform.

Other notable signers are philanthropist Lynn Forester de Rothschild, private equity billionaire José Feliciano, Twilio co-founder Jeff Lawson, and D.C. sports magnate Ted Leonsis, owner of the NBA’s Washington Wizards, WNBA’s Mystics and the NHL’s Washington Capitals.

The three-page list also includes a slate of longtime Democratic political donors, like Kleiner Perkins’ John Doerr, Insight partners Deven Parekh, and Jeffrey Katzenberg, founder and managing partner of Wndr and former chairman of Walt Disney Studios.

Another subset of names are people who have supported Harris in particular since her political campaigns in California, like the philanthropist Laurene Powell Jobs, Facebook co-founder Dustin Moskovitz, and NBA Hall of Famer and billionaire businessman Magic Johnson.

More than a dozen of the signers made their fortunes on Wall Street: Tony James, former president and COO of Blackstone and founder of Jefferson River Capital; Bruce Heyman, former managing director of private wealth at Goldman Sachs; Peter Orszag, CEO of Lazard; and Steve Westly managing director of the Westly Group and a former Tesla

board member. 

Still more are prominent in Silicon Valley, including the venture capitalist Ron Conway, entrepreneur Mark Cuban and former LinkedIn CEO Reid Hoffman.

***Cuban just said her plans would destroy the stock market.. Oh well... WOW

Delphi had gotten her hands on ingredients to make Polyjuice potion, which Mari knew must've been prepared over the summer since it took a month to make the potion. She also knew from her visions that these must've been taken from the Hogwarts potion cupboard since that's what Headmistress McGonagall had noticed was gone. 

Mari wasn't sure how she felt about that, the vibes from the Delphi woman growing more untrustworthy as time went on. 

"So we just take it?" Scorpius asked, looking at the bottle in front of him. 

"Scorpius, do I really need to explain to you- ubergeek and Potions expert- what Polyjuice does? Thanks to Delphi's brilliant preparation work, we are going to take this potion and be transformed, and thus disguised we will be able to enter the Ministry of Magic." 

"Okay, two points, one, is it painful?" Scorpius asked hesitantly. 

"Very- as I understand it." Delphi said. 

"Thank you. Good to know. Second point: Do either of you know what Polyjuice tastes of? Because I've heard it tastes of fish and if it does I will just vomit it back up. Fish doesn't agree with me. Never has. Never will." Scorpius rambled on. 

Mari had read her mothers' books and knew that her Uncle Harry thought that Polyjuice Potion was the worst thing he'd ever taken, including Skelegrow. Mari had never had to take Skelegrow as she had never been active enough to break a bone. However, when Davina had broken her leg climbing a tree, she had cried when she had to take the medicine. 

All in all, Mari was not looking forwards to taking the Polyjuice Potion. 

"Consider us warned." Delphi said, before knocking back the potion in her hand. "It doesn't taste of fish. Actually it tastes quite pleasant, yum. It is painful but. . . take it back. There is a- slight-" Delphi burped before turning into Hermione Granger. "-Slight- overpowering- fishy residue." 

"Okay, that's. . . wow." Albus mumbled. 

"Double wow." Scorpius said. 

When Delphi spoke, she sounded exactly like Maris' Aunt Granger, "This really doesn't feel how I- I even sound like her! Triple wow." 

"And I'll be Quadruple wowed when we get into the Ministry, get the time-turner, and get out alive." Mari said dryly. 

"Right. Me next." Albus said quickly. 

"No. No way, José. If we're doing this, we're doing it together." Scorpius said as he put on a pair of Harrys' glasses. 

Mari dropped her mother's hair into the glass, wondering what it was going to be like, being her mother. She watched as the brown sludge turned a beautiful turquoise colour. Scorpius' turned gold while Albus' turned a dark red, almost light brown for Ron. 

"Three. Two. One." Albus counted down. Mari tossed back her drink and immediately wanted to retch. It was indeed one of the worst things she'd ever drank, tasting like a mixture of mud and sewer water. 

The taste is only drowned out by the pain of Mari changing. She shrinks down to her mothers size, her shoulder length black hair growing and lightning up. Her anorexic thin body becomes bigger, though still slender. 

Mari observed herself in the mirror, realizing that she was not perfect. She had tired bags under her eyes and she had stretch marks along her thighs and stomach. And yet, she was still beautiful- her mother that is. 

She noted how sad she made her mother look, since it was her resting face on her mother. Was this how she constantly looked? She knew she was different from the other kids. Didn't laugh or smile easily, but her life wasn't bad either. She wasn't depressed. But looking at her sadness on her normally cheerful mother made her realize something deep inside. . . she just couldn't place her finger on it. 

"This is going to be slightly weird, isn't it?" Her Uncle Rons' voice came from behind her. While she had been observing herself in the mirror, Scorpius and Albus had been looking at each other instead. 

"Go to your room. Go straight to your room. You've been an incredibly awful and bad son!" Harry/Scorpius cried out dramatically. Maris' lips twitched into a smile, which definitely looked more natural on her mothers' face, which made Mari realize another thing. 

To really pull this off, she needed to not only look like her mother, but act like her as well.

"Scorpius. . ." Albus/Ron laughed behind her as Mari looked back in the mirror, trying a larger smile. It didn't fall naturally to her, but it looked a lot better. 

"It was your idea-" Scorpius defended himself as he fixed his glasses on his face. "I be him and you be Ron! I just want to have a little fun before I-" He burped "-Okay, so that's utterly horrible." 

"You know." Albus commented as he ran his hands over his body. "He hides it well, but Uncle Ron's got a bit of a gut growing." 

"I think my mother has been hiding her stretch marks with magic." Mari commented with another smile. "She shouldn't though, I actually kind've like them." 

"Your mother is actually really hot." Scorpius said and then paused, "You know what, I think I should probably take that back." 

"Considering you're disguised as Elizabeth Potters' brother, I would agree with that." Delphi said and then added, "We should go- don't you think?" 

As they walked onto the street, Scorpius continued to backtrack his thoughts, "I said that wrong Mari. What I meant was that many guys think your mother is hot. Like you've heard them at school, right?" 

"Harry!" Mari complained, pushing his shoulder playfully. "Knock it off! I don't want to think about it." 

"Right, right, sorry Elizabeth." Scorpius coughed, holding his hands up in surrender. 

Delphi led them to the telephone box, dialing 62442. Mari almost jumped as a voice in the box spoke suddenly, "Welcome, Harry Potter. Welcome, Hermione Granger. Welcome, Ron Weasley. Welcome, Elizabeth Snape." 

Mari smiled as the box started to descend into darkness. 

Hmm. . . this smiling thing was coming more naturally with time!
