Jornalistas esportivos: deixem os gigantes em paz

Vivemos no país dos gigantes. A cada conquista ou derrota, um feito extraordinário no campo, na quadra, no mar, seja onde for, numa disputa esportiva, a gente tromba com um gigante. Se chora a dor do jogo perdido, lá está um gigante a consolar. Se abre o sorriso na vitória, um gigante está a seu lado. Se veste uma camisa de um clube histórico e honra suas cores, a camisa é do gigante. São tantos…

Today - January 19 th, 1985 - Queen Story!

Queen in Rio to perform at the 'Rock in Rio Festival', Brazil, Barra da Tijuca, during 'Works!' Tour - August '84/May '85

- Second night in Rio

🔸At 2 am Queen take the stage again at the Rock In 'Rio festival' in front of an estimated crowd of between 250 and 300,000 spectators

🔸300,000 people a night have been listening to 90 hours of music over 10 days at a custom built arena nestling in the mountains at Barra Da Tijuca.

The place is 250,000 square metres in size and about the length of a small airport. It’s not your usual site with tacky old hamburger stands either. There’s a shopping centre with more than 30 shops, a fast food centre including the world’s largest McDonalds, a fully equipped hospital and flush toilets and showers.

You could land a jumbo jet on the stage, which is 21,000 sq feet in size with revolving sections to move equipment around. Twenty tons of lighting equipment with 160,000lbs of sound equipment belting out 500,000 watts of power have been flown in. The arena has its own electric sub station.

Rock in Rio should play to 3,000,000 people beating the Guinness Book of Records champion, Watkins Glenn festival in 1973, which could only manage 600,000.

It all beats confession and a few Hail Marys in church on Sunday, so the local clergy have issued a statement condemning the event, saying it will corrupt the nation’s youth. The Government is backing the Church and the official censor nearly succeeded in banning anyone under 18 going to the concert.

Rock In Rio is costing around 11 million dollars to stage. It’s the brainchild of Brazilian advertising man Roberto Medina and he wants to make it an annual event

Llega el primer cargamento de estrenos navideños 2024

La salsa, la plena y el merengue dominan esta primera cosecha de estrenos.

Pasado el periodo eleccionario, muchas estaciones de radio ya programan música navideña y los estrenos no se hicieron esperar. De igual manera, las tiendas de discos físicos ya sacaron sus inventarios de CDs y vinilos navideños para atraer a sus clientes.

Son muchos los estrenos que ya se han dado a conocer y se espera que sigan llegando hasta finales de noviembre, por lo que NotiCel les presenta este primer cargamento de estrenos navideños para este año 2024. ¡Que disfruten!

“Mi tremendo parrandón” (Edwin “Calvito” Reyes con Prodigio Claudio) – Estos dos boricuas se juntaron de nuevo para ofrecer un tema navideño, luego del éxito “Salsa con trova en Navidad” (2022). El tema es composición de Prodigio Claudio, quien a su vez unió fuerzas con el trombonista Luis Ginés para realizar el arreglo. Otro gran trabajo vocal de Reyes. La producción ejecutiva fue de Con Clase Records. Es un tremendo tema bailable que también se escuchará mucho en las fiestas familiares.

“Noche de alegría” (Alex Castro) – Un tema en salsa bien bailable cuya letra resalta varias tradiciones puertorriqueñas, pero principalmente el nacimiento de Jesús. La composición y la producción general es de Castro y el arreglo musical de Emmanuel "Cerebro" Romero. El cuatrista invitado es Giovanni Crespo Medina y en el coro se escuchan las voces de Miguel Guerrero y Edwin Lebrón. Otro acierto musical de este talentoso cantautor junqueño.

“Debajo del arbolito” (Nell Álvarez) – Este es el cuarto sencillo de Álvarez desde que decidió lanzarse como solista y presenta un tema de despecho enmarcado en la época navideña en el que espera deshacerse del recuerdo de la pareja y que el nuevo año traiga un nuevo amor. La composición es de Andy Guzmán y el arreglo musical del venezolano Víctor Gámez. El solo de cuatro puertorriqueño lo ejecuta Roberto “Bobby” Pérez. El sonido de la orquesta es caracterizado por los trombones, ejecutados por Moisés Nogueras.

“Nunca hay ná” (Las Chicas del Clan) – Las originales Chicas del Clan regresan con este sabroso merengue “ajibarado” con el cuatro de Christian Nieves. La composición es de Freddie Silva Nieves y el interesante arreglo musical, que empieza como plena, es de Freddie Méndez. “No demos más parranda en esta casa… en esta casa bendito nunca hay ná”. Las voces de la orquesta son Milly Pérez, Rosita Figueroa, Wanda Vallellanes y Brenda Liz Mateo.

“El calentón” (Arnaldo Vallellanes) – Arnaldo “El más querido” presenta este merengue navideño que cuenta la historia del amigo que quería una parranda, pero cuando llegó tuvo que “aguantar presión” por la cantidad de gente que llegó. “No te salvaste del calentón”, dice el coro del tema, compuesto por Vallellanes y arreglado por Carlos “Peyé” Ortega para Bien Duro Music. Esperen escucharlo en cada fiesta de marquesina en esta temporada.

“Navidad es alegría” (La Puertorriqueña) – Don Perignon seleccionó este año una composición del reconocido cantautor José Nogueras, quien ha dejado una huella imborrable en la música navideña de Puerto Rico. El arreglo musical es de Ramón Sánchez, quien ha revelado que sus principales referentes para arreglar música navideña son los emblemáticos discos de Willie Colón con Héctor Lavoe y las producciones dedicadas a la época de El Gran Combo y la Sonora Ponceña. Participa la joven cuatrista Fabiola Muñoz. Las voces en este tema son Joe González, José Karlo Ribot y Henry Santiago.

“En la Navidad” (Maribel Santos) – El nuevo sencillo de Santos es de su autoría, un tema en salsa que invita a la unión familiar y entre países. El año pasado, la actriz y presentadora publicó su primer tema navideño “Esta Navidad yo quiero”. En este nuevo lanzamiento, la boricua también invita a recordar el verdadero sentido de esta época, el nacimiento del niño Jesús. El arreglo musical es de Robert García.

“Con cuatro, guitarra y güiro” (Reunidos por la Salsa) – Este bonche de músicos y cantantes se unen de nuevo para ofrecer este sabroso tema, original del naranjiteño Nelson Bermúdez y arreglo musical de Eliú y Kevin Figueroa. Los cantantes que participan son: Waldo Iván Colón, Tito Guadalupe, Edwin “El Calvito” Reyes, José Novoa, Kriptony Texeira y Nelson Bermúdez. El cuatrista es Josean Feliberty. Otro excelente tema de esta cooperativa de músicos latinos.

“Familia y amigos” (Grupo Esencia) – El destacado músico y cantante Ángel “Papote” Alvarado, fundador y director de Esencia, presenta este año una plena, composición suya, inspirada en la familia y los amigos que resalta una de las características de la Navidad puertorriqueña. Es el primer tema con letra navideña que produce Esencia en sus casi 30 años de historia. En la parte vocal, Alvarado está acompañado por José Lago. El arreglo musical estuvo a cargo de Alvarado, Tony Velázquez y Héctor “Pochi” Gastón.

“Santa se perdió” (Félix O. Rodríguez) – Una plena con letra jocosa, original de Eric Rosario, es el tema que presenta este año el trombonista cagüeño, radicado en Atlanta, Félix O. Rodríguez. Este tema se realizó con los músicos del colectivo “Reunidos por la Salsa” y cuenta con José Novoa como cantante y Rosario como el rapero invitado. Josean Feliberty es el cuatrista invitado. El arreglo musical y la producción son de Rodríguez.

Hot Zone Crisis

*Basically, I wrote up an attempt at a history report from data-points, which I’ll list in the tags.*

The 2020’s through the 2030’s saw high temperatures and drought around the globe due to rapid climate change. Southwest United States, specifically the tri-state area of California, Nevada, and Arizona, became known as the “Hot Zone” due to being hit particularly hard. The federal response to the growing climate crisis was heavily criticised and resisted, and resulted in hostilities between the government and the locals of the Hot Zone.

In 2036, an executive order was made to relocate citizens of the Hot Zone into temporary housing under threat of having the regions water shut off. The order, colloquially known as 73-H, forced southwestern families into crowded, fenced in camps, and set the federal government up to take over rare Earth metal mines in the area. Several opponents to the order refused to leave, and many soldiers in the area took exception to being forced off of their land. One such soldier, Colonel Edward De La Hoya, helped to organise a resistance to the perceived government overreach. Roberto Medina declared his own resistance, claiming that he would be putting all of his profits from the local mines towards helping southwesterners continue to habitate the area rather than be forced into government camps. In the wake of Medina’s support, more businesses and mining interests in the area began to contribute similarly.

When the government followed through on their threat and shut off water in the region, Medina and his allies continued their efforts to help Hot Zone inhabitants by ensuring that they would have water by signing a contract with a South American water cartel, MERASUR. Due to fear of shipments, referred to as water fleets, being attacked by government drones, Medina brought the issue to De La Hoya. He took it to his lieutenants and formed a squad of pilots to guard the fleets, called Joint Task Force Ten, or simply JTF-10. In the beginning of hostilities, the government armed the drones they sent as enforcers of 73-H with non-lethal countermeasures. By May of 2037, as the JTF-10 soldiers continued to successfully fend them off and even capture federal military bases in the region, they began to arm them with live artillery rounds.

While tensions rose and engagements grew more violent, some citizens of the Hot Zone resisted the war effort in pursuit of more peaceful solutions. In particular, Air Force Colonel Anne Faraday refused to fight, and instead was one of the foremost figures in helping to evacuate neutral parties from both the environmental struggles and the growing hostilities. In what would later be considered one of the finest moments in oratory history, Faraday gave an impassioned speech on the importance of community and unity in facing the troubling prospect of worsening climate change and increasing automation, “…True courage means facing those fears with conviction instead of cynicism, unity instead of division. Leading the peacekeeping effort with these brave men and women, these "Marshals" of the new southwest has strengthened my conviction that when we are united in purpose, we can overcome any threat.”

Hostilities came to an end on August 20, 2037. U.S. Robot Control moved in on a JFT-10 base in the Mojave in an attempt to capture rebel leaders, specifically Roberto Medina. It was called Operation: Unity. The drones were met with fierce resistance from JTF-10 soldiers, only ending when an explosion was set off, likely caused by JFT-10 fire breaking open the power casing of a government drone. The detonation levelled the base and killed nearly all personnel on site, including Medina and De La Hoya, as well as nearly 900 refugees being sheltered near the base.

An armistice was reached soon after, and reconciliation talks began under Anne Faraday and her group of neutral peacekeepers. A long lasting peace was reached, and soon after what was being called the Hot Zone Crisis would begin the Clawback Era; where people such as Stanley Chen, Ted Faro, and Elisabet Sobeck, influenced by the actions of Medina, De La Hoya, and Faraday, would begin efforts to be environmentally conscious and to start to set their mind towards healing the planet.

*I wanted to do another for the Clawback Era, maybe put together my own series on the history of Horizon, but I haven’t had the motivation lately lmao*

18.  America Chavez aka Miss America - biracial; Afro-Puerto Rican Caribbean

19.  Carmen Cruz aka Gimmick - biracial; Afro-Latina

20. Laura Kinney aka Wolverine - biracial; Afro-Latina and half white; her exact ethnicity is unknown but first appearance (in the animated X-Men: Evolution series) depicts her with dark skin and her “mother” had darker skintone with blonde hair. Her creators didn’t specify her ethnicity but I do think she’s Hispanic. And given the darker skintone of her “mother”, she’s most likely Afro-Latina. I know in recent comic adaptation portray her with way lighter skin tone but her ORIGINAL appearance shows her with DARKER skintone (thought not as dark as her “mother”). As such, I have seen Laura as half white and half Afro Latina but the Hispanic nationality is unknown. Also, as a side note, her creators also mentioned they planned to do a LGBT storyline with Laura but it was axed. So, she’s also LGBT.
