Maxine Jokes On Healthcare Plan

Letter to a "dissident" Diagnosing

Dear J ***:

As time passes, it becomes more and more noticeable gap between people who were put at the service of political party to do that from the zero point of the party thought of making a springboard of his vanity, personal therapy or whatever. Today, while some amuse you on blogs and forums gossiping and making childish nicknames Rosa and other members of the Board, other companies involved in the more fundamental policy in Spain since 1978. And for this some will leave the skin (not to mention the number of working hours and many personal sacrifices) in organizing the territorial structure of the party, to form specialized working groups, to write and publish documents, to manage relations with the press, to carry out campaigns when he plays and preparing for when the time comes to undertake the reforms that we advocate. Meanwhile, in the old and critical sector (the same who once seriously infected Citizens) dedicándoos you keep to business as usual, since it is free: on the Internet criticizing the "lack of internal democracy", on which apparently are the only ones that you have funded studies. The party is growing steadily, there is an established procedure to participate and to exercise constructive criticism and who wants to do it: you know a member of the Political Council meeting that some disagreed with the Bureau in their own beards and won a vote against the position taken repeatedly by Gorriarán, and until today no lightning has struck the bold. Must be because differed from party loyalty and effort demonstrated daily.

In November we held a conference to define together, through a flawless democratic process and unprecedented in other parties, how it will be UPyD in the coming years. But no, some, even though they are not militants!, Ever be allowed to say that there is no internal democracy if they are not ignored, though they say stupid or ignorant to understand something as simple as the need for leadership and respect for standards in any organized group, which not only not contradict democracy they strictly make it possible. But this match is that we prefer to ignore those who contribute ideas to the policy making for adults, which come with a project under the arm, and not those who have spent years tangled from game to game on purely organic and instrumental and giving everyone lessons in democracy (in short, how to include them and not others), stroking each other or themselves in the comments of their blogs, betraying confidences, lying or making mistakes and anecdotes about local becomings because national party never knew anything but through the Internet, which is its vital stronghold, flooding spam mailboxes, distilling for hours and hours a day, a cyber chatter not reform any institution or any conscientious care of himself. This if you think about it, if you think bad, I thought someone promotes this unusual swarm of bloggers and foreros piece and that it is not unbalanced or immature characters, but rather concerned.

But there is life beyond the Internet. Not this kind of critical those placed in parliament UPyD English, Basque and European, and the hope of a change in the hearts of many English. Mood: to follow yours, others will follow his own. I never communicate with this curious union of your network dissidents if I can help, because there are better ways to waste time, but you, as we had a cordial relationship, I wanted to tell you that your attitude and I am disappointed that I now feel I gave you one day my confidence because I think I threw on deaf ears: nothing improved or will improve this beautiful project.

Greetings. Digital Journalist .

Take My Dachsun On A Plane

UPyD by symptoms

[Inés Matute, Focus, eleven landscapes for Eros , Tegueste (Tenerife): Baile del Sol, 2009.]

Matute met Agnes a few years ago. She lives Bilbao long ago in Palma, led and directed a great literature and art magazine online, and I had landed in Mallorca for some time with my writing under his arm. Our friendship, which began my collaboration with Luke has been progressively extended to his books, mine, the last Thursday Toni Rigo in Literanta, the tapas, going out together in an anthology of Roman Piña and, with permission from Malene and Joachim, to confidence. Long time since I've resigned myself to let myself overwhelmed by the vitality of Inez, that seems endless and is a great encouragement. Now let me once again overwhelm with great pleasure by the narrative train Focus your eleven landscapes for Eros.

is very clear from the title of this volume much more important than love and sex in its various aspects is its landscape, that is, everything that surrounds them and prevent it from being a pure experience and unambiguous, the romantic style. Matute Agnes had already shown in Portrait with island (Tegueste: Baile del Sol, 2007) have been aware of an essentially relational and thus human nature conflictual. Love can not escape this problematic pattern, bounded by infinite edges, some of them hidden from our view and most of the sometimes painful and well beyond sweetened the design have grown both literature and film. The father Fulgencio, one of the characters that inhabit the book, is the wise statement that read: "there are no pure types. There are no strong men and weak men: there are different ways of combining strength with his own weakness. " Matute

That race is a writer of humor demonstrated that distill their stories and tends to set in intelligent irony and even sarcasm, according to a vision of life away from the naivete or idealism, its cosmopolitanism, which allows no geographical, cultural, sexual or professional interest is outside his narrator, and opening both stories respecting the limits of reality as possible and to those who, by their nature fantastic or dreamlike, require a healthy readjustment reader's imagination. The story seems to be always a challenge for Matute, and it shows the quality of the narrators proud.

Thus, we find in the book tales of intrigue, and, for Matute, the intrigue is eminently psychological. In "Work Bee" check the confused status of rejected love, an image as "I feel my heart open and goes inside a frog red" expresses the painful personal quagmire that is a guilty love but impossible to contain. In "Red and spicy "is explored, with total ease and from a voice politically incorrect, the role that memories play in the identity of individuals, and to what extent a state of oblivion is feared and desired at the same time. "Blooms" again explores the possibilities of game clues and unexpected outcomes, the recurring references to Agatha Christie are not random in this tale of jealousy and self doubt over ethical conventions.

"Twin Towers" takes the impact of an event that has marked generations-and now forms one of the metaphors of our time, to paraphrase a certain type of love apparently only departs from the romantic convention, but in this case abounds in self-denial, in the dignity and persistence beyond the illness and death. "A nice cocoon, meanwhile, demystifies the contemporary world of sex over the Internet. The complexity of treaty relations (deception, complexes, fears, social correction) moves to the virtual world and the comic details do not stop thinking about the confinement and isolation we leave a bitter aftertaste.

"in Lannemezan Odd" is the amazing story of a lonely woman who seeks the lost desire in a corner of the High Pyrenees, and would not hesitate to seduce anyone who crosses his path, "Panthers Wedding" is a window on the ambiguity melancholy, jealousy and love decompensated, "Peliculera!" records that love and hatred are closer to each other in what is sometimes assumed. Great field, "Signed in the Clouds" presents death as a female deceptively desirable. "Domino effect" is a wonderful story, with a precision and tenderness untold, expression of femininity amazing and very revealing. "Asaltacamas", finally, is a fun tale in which two lovers in search of a bed repeatedly denied there are paradoxical and subsequent appointments with a number of characters in literature and art universal. The link between them is their connection to a bed (voluntary or determined by the physical or mental), which slides and erotic material in the vital area of \u200b\u200bdisappointment.

are many aspects of love, all set in the same difficulty of providing a stable channel, serene, recognizable, clear, smooth and balanced. Matute Inés This book becomes, well, a very wise diagnosis of a disease that basically we knew but, still anchored century romantic conventions XIX, we did not dare to declare out loud. Given the inherent impossibility of a coherent discourse about love or from love, seem to propose these stories, we deal with their circumstances. Which is, I think, a great narrative point of view, and separate accounts, evidence of considerable intelligence.
