<description><![CDATA[A ver, este es un tema raro&#8230;
Pienso que hay como un &#8220;sentido de la palabra&#8221; (Apart]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft" style="float:left;" src="http://www.sanfranciscosentinel.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/charlton-heston-2.jpg" alt="&#34;Lorea! Traigo las palabras más lindas que hayas visto en tu puta vida!&#34;" width="250" height="255" />A ver, este es un tema raro...<br />
Pienso que hay como un "sentido de la palabra" (Aparte del tacto, del gusto, etc.). O quizás es un sabor adicional, el de la palabra. ¿A qué me refiero?<br />
A que hay palabras que me gustan... Simplemente por como se escriben o como suenan. No me interesa el significado. Es como cuando te gusta la noche, pero te quedas dormido en ella y ni la "vives" xD</p>
<p>Es algo ñoño, lo sé, completamente. No es un gusto masivo, ni una costumbre normal el pensar en palabras que te gustan como se escriben, o palabras que te desagradan... Por ejemplo, me gusta la palabra "futil"... Es tan simple, elocuente. Se explica sola, es cortita, se asimila rápido, suena sexy y elegante xD Como "tiranía", también es sexy, pero prehistóricamente. No me interesa que la tiranía sea algo malo o no, eso no va al caso. Lo que me gusta es lo que me evoca xD Un dinosaurio bailando lambada.</p>
<p><!--more--></p>
<p>Y siguiendo esa línea de razonamiento (el evocar la imagen de un carnívoro extinto moviendo su pelvis) pensé: "¿Y si las palabras me gustan más por la imagen mental?". Y al hacerme esa pregunta, recordé otra cosa que había leído antes, por una palabra en concreto: "Imagen".</p>
<p>La otra vez, por curiosidad, estaba leyendo un libro sobre los niños ciegos de nacimiento. En él, decían que el lenguaje es algo que se aprende no sólo por oído, sino por asimilar la imagen también. Por ello, los niños ciegos tienden a retrasarse en su aprendizaje del lenguaje. No sólo eso, sino también pueden ver afectado su desarrollo psicológico y social. Todo por la palabra. Además, recordaba otro artículo que una vez leí, sobre la sinestesia (cosa de la que hablaré en otro entry si lo recuerdo, porque es algo que me interesó mucho). El texto mencionaba la teoría de la "bubi" y la "kika"... o algo así. Lo que decía era: "¿Cuál te parece que es la bubi y cual es la kika?" mientras te mostraba dos imágenes. Una forma redondeada y una forma espinuda. Un gran porcentaje (cercano al 90% o más, no recuerdo bien) daba el nombre de "bubi" a la forma redondeada, y el nombre de "kika" a la forma estrellada. Lo curioso de este asunto es que la palabra "bubi" o "kika" no tienen significado alguno en nuestro idioma, y las imágenes no representaban nada concreto. Pero aún así la gente podía asumir un nombre para cada imagen sin problemas, aunque los elementos en cuestión no estuviesen relacionados. ¿No lo estaban? La idea era que no, pero, de alguna forma, relacionamos los sonidos a las formas. Las palabras escritas, según estudios, las relacionamos con ideas, y estas ideas pueden ser sonidos, imágenes, olores, sensaciones o lo que sea. Por ejemplo, podemos pensar en un perro. Para mí, la imagen primera primeriza de un perro es mi mascota, el Perham, y se me mezcla con un quiltro y con un pastor aleman al intentar pensar en un perro genérico. Pienso en que ladran y tienen un hocico hediondo... Pero por ejemplo, para un niño recién mordido, seguramente va a asumir la imagen de un perro como el perro atacante y va a generar un miedo. La palabra "perro" para él va a tener un distinto impacto que para mí. Pero me estoy alejando de la idea. La idea es que una palabra evoca un sonido, y el sonido evoca una imagen o sensación. Un sonido como la "ka" nos sugiere algo agudo, cortante, y quebrado, mientras la "bu" nos sugiere algo redondito y libre de daño (Curioso, pero algo así es como funcionan las onomatopeyas ahora que lo pienso). Y aquí es cuando vuelvo al tema de que una palabra me guste. Es cuando es armoniosa. Cuando una palabra, tanto escrita, como hablada, tiene armonía con la imagen que genera en mi mente. Al igual que la música, la cual me gusta cuando me transmite un sentimiento... como "Rain Song" de Led Zepelin OWO XD Pero eso no viene al caso. Lo que viene al caso es el darle un significado a una palabra. ¿Han intentado darle una imagen a una palabra abstracta? Si logran encontrar la imagen que calce perfecto, habrá que temer algo: ¿Seríamos capaces de aceptar la materialización de algo abstracto? ¿Seríamos capaces de aceptar algo que nos imaginamos, de una manera rápida al verlo concretado? Y pensando en ello, de alguna manera retorcida, llegué a encontrar una validez en muchas ideas que nunca he considerado como reales, o que al menos encontraba exageradas, como el amor a primera vista, ver un flashazo de tu vida antes de morir, el deja-vú, el descenso de un Mesias, entre una larga lista de cosas que no recuerdo xD Pero eso mejor lo escribo en otra ocasión... ya me he extendido mucho ahora...</p>
<p>Saludos!</p>

The farmers contesting the Jadcherla seat help]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><span style="font-size:medium;color:#0000ff;">Polepally protesters sway poll outcome </span></strong></p>
<p align="justify">P. Sainath</p>
<p align="left"> </p>
<p><span><em>The farmers contesting the Jadcherla seat helped to defeat the sitting MLA. </em></span><em></em></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><span>— Photo: P. Sainath </span><br />
<img src="http://telanganautsav.wordpress.com/images/2008060354790901.jpg" border="1" alt="" width="350" height="169" align="center" /><br />
<em></em>The Jadcherla 13, of whom eight are seen in the picture, succeeded in lowering the votes of the main parties<strong> </strong></p>
<p align="justify"> </p>
<p>They made history by standing as 13 independent candidates fighting the same Assembly seat but contesting for, not against, one another. They did it again on Sunday — by helping defeat the sitting Telangana Rashtra Samithi MLA, even as every one of them lost his or her own security deposit.</p>
<p>The 13 farmers contesting the Jadcherla seat in Telangana — who lost their lands to the Polepally Pharma Special Economic Zone — together drew a total of over 8,000 votes. That is, four times Congress candidate Mallu Ravi’s victory margin over the Telugu Desam Party’s Erra Sekhar.</p>
<p>The effort of these mainly Dalit, backward caste and Adivasi farmers — a protest to draw attention to their loss of land — torpedoed the sitting TRS MLA, Lakshma Reddy. He drew less than 21,000 votes and came third. Both his Congress and TDP rivals drew more than twice that number each.</p>
<p>As many as 350 families have lost all their land — some 969 acres — to the Pharma SEZ (<em>The Hindu</em>, May 26, 2008). But even if these families had three votes each, the Jadcherla 13 drew several times that number in sympathy. That is, there is clear evidence of a much wider sympathy for them. Not only did they lose their land, they got no compensation beyond a pittance per acre.</p>
<p>The land acquired by the government for the SEZ is adjacent to the national highway. It is also not far from the Shamshabad airport. Land rates in the region are thus well above Rs.20 lakh per acre. Often even higher than that. But the displaced farmers got sums ranging from Rs.18,000 to Rs.50,000 an acre, way below the prevailing market rates.<!--more--></p>
<p><span class="subsectionhead" style="font-size:small;color:#ff0000;">Common manifesto </span></p>
<p>Though rival contenders for the seat, these farmers fought on a common manifesto and campaigned jointly. Their declared aim was “to lower the votes of the main parties.” An aim they appear to have achieved. As one of the 13, Lingaiah, told <em>The Hindu</em>: “Actually, we wanted to put 150 candidates.” Which would certainly have drawn away even more votes from the major parties. But they could not as most could not afford the Rs.5,000 security deposit required.</p>
<p>Of them, Mala Jangilamma — who has sold four head of cattle in distress for just Rs.1,000 — netted the highest number of votes, 1771.</p>
<p>Chandi, an Adivasi, got 892. Together with their contesting colleagues — and two other independents who backed them — the Jadcherla 13 pulled in over 8,000 votes. Their manifesto made no promises and their only demand was and remains “we get our lands back, we get our lives back.”</p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:8pt;font-family:Arial;">Ella nos cautivó con su meneíto. Desató pasiones con sus pantalones rotos y sedujo a más de uno con la rumba- lambada.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:8pt;font-family:Arial;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:8pt;font-family:Arial;">¿Cómo olvidarla? En Latinoamérica se dio a conocer como la “Reina de la Lambada”, ya que aprovechó el auge de este ritmo brasileño para darse a conocer. En Venezuela, todos la recordamos por incursionar en el mundo musical con ritmos “<em>tropicalientes”</em> <span> </span>(tecnomerengue y afines). </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:8pt;font-family:Arial;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:8pt;font-family:Arial;">Su nombre real- para quienes no lo sabían - es <span>Nathalíe Rodríguez, pero se inmortalizó como la inigualable y deslumbrante NATUSHA. </span><span> </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:8pt;font-family:Arial;">Las cejas oscuras y el cabello <em>rubio encendido</em> eran su sello de distinción. Popularizó temas como<span>  </span>“Él la engañó”, “Sei Sei”, <span> </span>“Tú la tienes que pagar”, “Cóseme los pantalones” y “Dame un besito”. Era infaltable en toda fiesta latina, pues su <span style="text-decoration:underline;">guaguancó </span><span> </span>encendía las caderas y hacía bailar al más tieso. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:8pt;font-family:Arial;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:8pt;font-family:Arial;">Todavía tengo algunas de sus canciones en mi repertorio <em>pachangoso </em><span> </span>y cada vez que puedo la recuerdo, porque un “talento” tan peculiar como el de ella es imposible de borrar (todo trauma es así). </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:8pt;font-family:Arial;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><em><span style="font-size:8pt;font-family:Arial;">Nota: Hace tiempo que no sé nada de Natusha y eso me entristece. Si alguien conoce su paradero o<span>  </span>tiene información referente a un nuevo disco de la “artista”, avíseme. Pido a Dios todas las noches para que lancen un CD/DVD con todos sus éxitos jajaja.<span>   </span></span></em></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><em></em></p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Nel celebre quadro che <a href="http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salvador_Dal%C3%AD">Salvador Dalì</a> dipinse nel 1931, "<a href="http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_persistenza_%28Salvador_Dal%C3%AD%29">La Persistenza della memoria</a>" si viene colpiti dalla ipermollezza degli orologi che ne fanno parte (per questo è detto anche "Gli orologi molli") .</p>
<p>Forse rappresentano idee incerte, ricordi di cui non sappiamo più precisamente ne dove ne come. Ma sono lì che ci tormentano, che rimangono fissi nella nostra memoria. Fissi come certi ritornelli che non escono più dalla nostra mente.</p>
<p><!--more--></p>
<p><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sylvie_Vartan">Sylvie Vartan</a> "Zum zum zum" (1968 )</p>
<p><span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/6I3VlCidoaI'></param><param name='wmode' value='transparent'></param><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/6I3VlCidoaI&rel=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' wmode='transparent' width='425' height='350'></embed></object></span></p>
<p>(Nota personale: zum zum zum zum zum zum... ehm... bello il video! possiamo rivedere anche dei giochi che non facciamo più: il salto della corda, il campanone o campanile, la cavallina, e poi i pallottolieri, i girelli dei bimbi le enormi palle gonfiabili per giocare in spiaggia! Insomma un tuffo nella memoria un ritorno a quando eravamo piccoli)</p>
<p>In questo post potrete ascoltare alcune delle canzoni più ripetitive (o ossessive...) che la mente umana abbia creato. Quelle canzoni che se le ascolti una volta non te le levi più dalla testa per tutta la giornata.Quelle canzoni che come predetto da Sylvie Vartan: " 'sta mattina la cantavo io soltanto, ma 'sta sera già mi sembra chiaramente di sentire tanta gente che la canta assieme a me".</p>
<p>"Zum Zum Zum" era anche la sigla del programma Canzonissima del 1968, condotto da <a href="http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mina_%28cantante%29">Mina</a>, <a href="http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walter_Chiari">Walter Chiari</a> e <a href="http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paolo_Panelli">Paolo Panelli</a>. Essendo sigla di un programma importante si fecero le cose in grande</p>
<p><span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/0tfeoK_w2x8'></param><param name='wmode' value='transparent'></param><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/0tfeoK_w2x8&rel=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' wmode='transparent' width='425' height='350'></embed></object></span></p>
<p>(Nota personale: difficile trovare una sigla così elaborata nei programmi dei nostri giorni. Per problemi organizzativi, la versione della sigla non fu incisa. Ne approfittò Vartan per pubblicare la propria e arrivare prima in classica.)</p>
<p>mentre nel 1970, Canzonissima ci deliziava con</p>

<p><a href="http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raffaella_Carr%C3%A0">Raffaella Carrà</a>, "Ma che musica Maestro".</p>
<p>Nel 1969 la vostra psiche iniziava ad essere tormentata da <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gershon_Kingsley">Gershon Kingsley</a> e la sua "<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Popcorn_%28instrumental%29">Popcorn</a>"</p>

<p>(Nota personale: qui è lo stesso compositore che la esegue al pianoforte)</p>
<p>"Popcorn" fu pubblicato per la prima volta nel '69, nel primo album di Kingsley "Music To Moog By", ma la versione più nota, quella che ci ha fatto impazzire, è quella degli <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot_Butter">Hot Butter</a> "Popcorn" (1972)</p>

<p>(Nota personale: "poppo poppo poppo pò"...ehm... forse la musica più ossessiva in assoluto! Rifatta quasi da tutti e usata anche in alcuni vecchi videogiochi per ZX Spectrum e Commodore 64)</p>
<p>La versione degli Hot Butter (Burro "Caldo", cioè burro fuso...che poi ci sta benissimo sui popcorn) fu la prima composizione elettronica, o più precisamente <a href="http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synthpop">Synthpop</a>, ad entrare nelle classifiche americane.</p>
<p>Il genere synthpop, si sviluppò negli anni '80, tanto che un po' tutti i gruppi o cantanti usavano suoni sintetici.</p>
<p>In quegli anni si potevano sentire altri tormentoni come:</p>
<p><a href="http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Claudio_Cecchetto">Claudio Cecchetto</a>,"Gioca  Jouer" 1981,</p>

<p>(Nota personale: però la mia versione con cose tipo: tornire, forgiare e temprare risulta molto più impegnativa e alla fin fine divertente!)</p>
<p>OFF, "Electrica Salsa", 1986 dalla Germania</p>
<p><span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/dwXYx71A1Zo'></param><param name='wmode' value='transparent'></param><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/dwXYx71A1Zo&rel=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' wmode='transparent' width='425' height='350'></embed></object></span></p>
<p>(Nota personale: "ba ba ba ba"...cosa aggiungere?)</p>
<p>L'anno dopo, 1987, dalla Granbretagna M&#124;A&#124;R&#124;R&#124;S, <span>"<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pump_Up_the_Volume_%28song%29">Pump Up the Volume</a>"</span></p>

<p>(Nota personale: chi non ha mai desiderato diventare un astronauta? Insomma, prendere un aereo e alzarsi da terra arrivando ad altezze impensabili è una cosa stupenda, ma addirittura posare piede su un pianeta che non è il tuo...)</p>
<p>Nel 1989 i Kaoma,  ci deviziavano, sarcasticamente si intende, con "<a href="http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lambada">Lambada</a>"</p>

<p>(Nota personale: che dire...m'arrendo, è impossibile scrivere qualcosa di sensato! Potrei aggiungere, quello che viene detto nella wiki: Kaoma gruppo francese che canta in portoghese, mentre la canzone è un tipo di ballo brasiliano. Caratteristica del ballo? La posizione delle cosce mentre si balla. Sarà per quello che ha avuto successo? Sicuramente!)</p>
<p>Dopo qualche anno di pace, il tutto riesplose nel 1995 con <a href="http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Los_del_Rio">Los Del Rio</a>..."<a href="http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macarena">Macarena</a>"</p>

<p>(Nota personale: chi crede che invecchiando si diventi più saggi, tenga sempre presente "Macarena" e i due "vecchietti" che la cantano)</p>

<p>(Nota personale: nel solito sito sui messaggi subliminali, le Las Ketchup vengono accusate di satanismo...o meglio viene accusata la loro copertina, leggete <a href="http://www.ccsg.it/asereje.htm">qui</a>. All'inizio non ci credevo...ma visto i danni che hanno fatto...)</p>
<p>Insomma...se siete arrivati fin qui e non vi siete rimbambiti del tutto, aspettando il prossimo tormentone destinato a frullarci in testa chissà per quanto, chiediamo aiuto e consiglio a</p>

<description><![CDATA[Part 2 : Digging Deeper into Lambadas, Extension Methods, and Linq
In this post I&#8217;ll be diggin]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3>Part 2 : Digging Deeper into Lambadas, Extension Methods, and Linq</h3>
<p>In this post I'll be digging deeper into doing things I've always wanted to have in .NET yet didn't. For example, I know I am not alone in wanting an IList (be it an IList&#60;T&#62; or a simple non-generic IList) to provide me a .foreach method as you get in a List&#60;T&#62;). This is just one of many things we address here (and more).</p>
<h1>From the concrete to the abstract</h1>
<p>I was having problems with entries in my path environmental variable, and I wanted an easy way to flag bad entries and also allow me to move the entries in the list up or down easily. This was made apparent by my use of a tool called 'Dependency Walker'. It's hard to live without but that's another post. See the screen shot below:</p>
<p><a href="http://dcarr.files.wordpress.com/2008/05/image-0001.png"><img style="border-right:0;border-top:0;border-left:0;border-bottom:0;" src="http://dcarr.files.wordpress.com/2008/05/image-0001-thumb.png" alt="Image-0001" width="458" height="316" /></a></p>
<p> </p>
<p><a href="http://www.dependencywalker.com/">Click here to go to 'Dependency Walker'</a></p>
<p> </p>
<h1>Test to Code</h1>
<pre style="width:212.41%;height:353px;">        /// &#60;summary&#62;
        /// Unit Test to Validate that the logic related to 'show combined extensions using paths' is functioning
        /// &#60;/summary&#62;
        /// Documentation Created 5/22/2008
        [Test]
        public void shouldShowCombinedExtensionsUsingPaths()
        {
            var _directoriesInPath = EnvironmentVariableTarget.Process.GetParsedValues("PATH");

            Assert.That(_directoriesInPath, Is.TypeOf(typeof(String[])));
            Assert.IsTrue(!_directoriesInPath.IsNullOrEmpty());

            _directoriesInPath.ForEach(
                x =&#62;
                {
                    if (!Directory.Exists(x))
                        Console.WriteLine("MIssing Directory! " + x);
                });
        }</pre>
<p><a href="http://11011.net/software/vspaste"></a></p>
<p>Above is the test (that also works). Before I launch into why this is interesting, what looks different?</p>
<p>1) EnvironmentVariableTarget : This is Microsoft's type not mine. It's the enum used to specify the target search on the environmentals.</p>
<p>2) _directoriesInPath : This is a string[] as you can see from the Assertion. But how does it support ForEach?</p>
<p>3) GetParsedValues() : What is that exactly?</p>
<p>in order to enable ForEach behavior I needed to add this extension method:</p>
<pre style="width:167.75%;height:246px;">        public static void ForEach&#60;TBase, TContainedType&#62;(this TBase baselineEnumerable,
            Action&#60;TContainedType&#62; actionPerform) where TBase : IEnumerable
        {
            var getEnumerate = baselineEnumerable.GetEnumerator();

            while (getEnumerate.MoveNext())
            {
                if (getEnumerate.Current is TContainedType)
                    actionPerform.Invoke((TContainedType)getEnumerate.Current);
            }
        }</pre>
<p><a href="http://11011.net/software/vspaste"></a></p>
<p>Notice that anything which implements IEnumerable is supported here, but it is up to you to provide the type which is contained by the enumeration.</p>
<p>For a strongly typed IEnumerable it's almost identical (I will combine these in a bit):</p>
<pre style="width:163.67%;height:206px;">        public static void ForEach&#60;TContainedType&#62;(this IEnumerable&#60;TContainedType&#62;
            baselineEnumerable, Action&#60;TContainedType&#62; actionPerform)
        {

            var getEnumerate = baselineEnumerable.GetEnumerator();

            while (getEnumerate.MoveNext())
                actionPerform.Invoke(getEnumerate.Current);
        }</pre>
<p><a href="http://11011.net/software/vspaste"></a></p>
<p>No need to check the type as it must be OK to invoke this method.</p>
<p>So how would you handle the rest?</p>
<p>I will be providing more code and far more information, but you can see how trivial it becomes to extend the .NET API on your own.</p>
<p>Here is one last code sample which I encourage you to check out:</p>
<pre style="width:153.37%;height:164px;">        public static IEnumerable&#60;DictionaryEntry&#62;
            ToDictionaryEntries(this IDictionary baselineEnumerable)
        {
            return from tEntry in baselineEnumerable.Cast&#60;DictionaryEntry&#62;()
                   select tEntry;

        }</pre>

<description><![CDATA[PART 1

This content assumes you have an introductory knowledge of C# 3.0 language features in .NET ]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2 style="text-align:left;"><strong>PART 1</strong></h2>
<p style="text-align:left;"><a href="http://dcarr.files.wordpress.com/2008/05/image31.png"><img class="alignright" style="border-width:0;margin:5px;" src="http://dcarr.files.wordpress.com/2008/05/image3-thumb.png" alt="image" height="220" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align:left;">This content assumes you have an introductory knowledge of C# 3.0 language features in .NET 3.5. I use a 'pair programming' approach with continued refactoring as this is how I would discuss it if you were coding with me, with an unfortunate one-way delivery.</p>
<h3 style="text-align:left;">The Brief Strategic View</h3>
<p style="text-align:left;">Microsoft has slowly been moving C# in a very productive direction (this is not new, as these features existed in 2.0 although not nearly as well integrated) to provide 'Functional Language' features. If you don't know or care about language semantics, just know that Linq and especially Lambada Expressions are about empowering you to use executable code like a variable, aka to leverage the power of functional programming. For more on this, read this <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/cc507636.aspx">MSDN article</a> by <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/cc301175.aspx">Joel Pobar (former CLR Team)</a> or read the next set of posts (part 2 onward) as I will go into the depths of this.</p>
<table style="text-align:left;" border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="2" width="545">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td width="543" valign="top">
<p align="center"><strong>I think of Lambadas as an incredibly focused and powerful domain specific language for delegates. </strong></p>
<p><strong>In this sense they are quite similar to Regular Expressions in that they are really good at their focus area.</strong></p>
<p align="center"><strong>What do I mean by good?</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>
<div>Terse yet Understandable / Maintainable</div>
</li>
<li>
<div>Syntax tailored to the need, not the other way around.</div>
</li>
<li>
<div>Highly effective for problems that are orders of magnitude more difficult without them (a simple 10% improvement would not cut it)</div>
</li>
</ul>
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<h2 style="text-align:left;">Painless Intro</h2>
<p style="text-align:left;">I'll start with a fairly trivial, yet important example (I use it every day). Many times when comparing Strings I want to ignore case and culture (the InvariantCulture). This is provided by an overload as such as you likely know:</p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><a href="http://11011.net/software/vspaste"></a><a href="http://11011.net/software/vspaste"></a></p>
<p><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">[</span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#8bcfe2;">Test</span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">,</span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#8bcfe2;">Category</span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">(</span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#a31515;">"BaselineCore"</span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">)] </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#9bdd22;">public void </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">shouldAsserStringCloneInvokeEqual() { </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#9bdd22;">var </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">baselineString = </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#a31515;">"This is a TEST CASE to IgnOrE Casing"</span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">; </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#9bdd22;">var </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">stringUpper = baselineString.ToUpperInvariant(); </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#8bcfe2;">Assert</span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">.IsTrue(baselineString.Equals(stringUpper, </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#2b91af;">StringComparison</span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">.InvariantCultureIgnoreCase)); </span></p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><a href="http://11011.net/software/vspaste"></a></p>
<p style="text-align:left;">The test results are shown above. Pass. Ok so I really like short, concise code that is understandable at a glance. Also it's a pain to always (even with ReSharper) use this (and I have seen people use RegEx for this! RegEx is awesome but overkill for this issue).</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">Refactoring</p>
<ul style="text-align:left;">
<li>Create an extension method on String</li>
<li>Decide on a good name for the method (this is SO important and for most an afterthought!)</li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align:left;">I've settled on calling this new method on String 'EqualsCore' as that is what we are doing, making the conditions for a match 'simpler' and seeing 'just the core values' are the same (anyway it makes sense to me)., I suppose this could be 'EqualsRelaxed' or whatever..</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">Here is the test case (no code yet):</p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><a href="http://11011.net/software/vspaste"></a></p>
<p><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">[</span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#8bcfe2;">Test</span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">, </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#8bcfe2;">Category</span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">(</span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#a31515;">"BaselineCore"</span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">)] </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#9bdd22;">public void </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">shouldAsserStringsEqualUsingExtension() { </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#9bdd22;">var </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">baselineString = </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#a31515;">"This is a TEST CASE to IgnOrE Casing"</span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">; </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#8bcfe2;">Assert</span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">.IsTrue(baselineString. EqualsSimple(baselineString.ToUpperInvariant())); }</span></p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><a href="http://11011.net/software/vspaste"></a></p>
<p style="text-align:left;">Now we write the code. Here is the container for the extension method:</p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><a href="http://11011.net/software/vspaste"></a></p>
<p><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#9bdd22;">public static class </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#8bcfe2;">StringExtensions </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">{ </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#9bdd22;">public static bool </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">EqualsSimple(</span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#9bdd22;">this string </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">sTarget, </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#9bdd22;">string </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">compare) { </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#9bdd22;">return </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">sTarget.Equals(compare, </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#2b91af;">StringComparison</span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">.InvariantCultureIgnoreCase); } }</span></p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><a href="http://11011.net/software/vspaste"></a></p>
<p style="text-align:left;">Indeed they both pass:</p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><a href="http://dcarr.files.wordpress.com/2008/05/image25.png"><img class="alignright" style="float:right;border-width:0;" src="http://dcarr.files.wordpress.com/2008/05/image25-thumb.png" alt="image25" height="237" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align:left;">By accident I discovered something cool, which might be well understood by others but I must of missed that day at school. In fact this pattern I discuss below is precisely how Microsoft extended the IEnumerable&#60;T&#62; interface so extensively.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">Since every type inherits from Object, and Equals is defined on Object, all instances should support this approach, and I could be early bound by using Generics.... Hmm...</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">I tried this (note: I gave it a new new 'EqualsThis' to separate them.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><a href="http://11011.net/software/vspaste"></a></p>
<p><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#9bdd22;">public static bool </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">EqualsThis&#60;TTarget&#62;(</span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#9bdd22;">this </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">TTarget sTarget, TTarget compare){ </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#9bdd22;">return </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">sTarget.Equals(compare); } </span></p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><a href="http://11011.net/software/vspaste"></a></p>
<p style="text-align:left;">Functionally not that interesting at all, but a test. So I typed in the following and wow... It works from Intellisense's view... Ok it compiled! Wait.....FAIL! But why:?</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">OK here is the new test:</p>
<p><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">[</span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#8bcfe2;">Test</span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">, </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#8bcfe2;">Category</span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">(</span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#a31515;">"BaselineCore"</span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">)] </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#9bdd22;">public void </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">shouldAsserANYTHINGEqualUsingExtension() { </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#9bdd22;">const </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#8bcfe2;">String </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">baselineString =</span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#a31515;">"This is a TEST CASE to IgnOrE Casing"</span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">; </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#9bdd22;">var </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">sb = </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#9bdd22;">new </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#8bcfe2;">StringBuilder</span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">(baselineString); </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#8bcfe2;">Assert</span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">.IsTrue(sb.EqualsThis(</span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#9bdd22;">new </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#8bcfe2;">StringBuilder</span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">(sb.ToString()))); }</span></p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><a href="http://11011.net/software/vspaste"></a></p>
<p style="text-align:left;">
<p style="text-align:left;"><a href="http://dcarr.files.wordpress.com/2008/05/image261.png"></a></p>
<p style="text-align:left;">Interesting...</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">Here is the documentation for what <em><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Equals</span></em> means by default from Microsoft:</p>
<table style="text-align:left;" border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="2" width="396">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td width="394" valign="top">
<p align="center">Returns: true if objA is the same instance as objB or if both are null references or if objA.Equals(objB) returns true; otherwise, false.</p>
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<p style="text-align:left;">So our code fails using the extension yet this returns true:</p>
<p><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">[</span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#8bcfe2;">Test</span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">] </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#9bdd22;">public void </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">shouldAssertStringBuilderExplicit() { </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#9bdd22;">const </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#8bcfe2;">String </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">baselineString = </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#a31515;">"This is a TEST CASE to IgnOrE Casing"</span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">; </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#9bdd22;">var </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">sb = </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#9bdd22;">new </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#8bcfe2;">StringBuilder</span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">(baselineString); </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#9bdd22;">var </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">sb2 = </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#9bdd22;">new </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#8bcfe2;">StringBuilder</span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">(baselineString); </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#8bcfe2;">Assert</span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#fec030;">.IsTrue(sb.Equals(sb2)); }</span></p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><a href="http://11011.net/software/vspaste"></a></p>
<p style="text-align:left;">So Reflector to the rescue once again. I could see in Reflector what I believed the issue was. Indeed the StringBuilder class has an overloaded Equals, and even making the extension method cast to the generic type directly was a no go.</p>
<table style="text-align:left;" border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="2" width="400">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td width="400" valign="top">
<p align="center">So what do you think? Why would this compile fine with absolutely no problems (and that is correct it turns out), but FAIL at runtime on the assertion when the same line above passes? Skip ahead and reply with the answer if you know it....</p>
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<p style="text-align:left;">This exposes one of the dangers that we must be incredibly careful with. It has always been poor design in my opinion to encourage developers to override common methods such as ToString() and Equals(object X) with their own behaviors as you force consumers of the API to understand IMPLEMENTATION. You cannot ensure your OK simply from a contract. This is known to be evil....</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">Of course this is a legacy style and will be slowly phased out.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">Spin up reflector and look at the code for the OVERLOAD that StringBuilder has:</p>
<div style="text-align:left;"><span class="kwrd">public</span> <span class="kwrd">bool</span> Equals(StringBuilder sb){ <span class="kwrd">if</span> (sb == <span class="kwrd">null</span>) <span class="kwrd">return</span> <span class="kwrd">false</span>; <span class="kwrd">return</span> (((<span class="kwrd">this</span>.Capacity == sb.Capacity) &#38;&#38; (<span class="kwrd">this</span>.MaxCapacity == sb.MaxCapacity)) &#38;&#38; <span class="kwrd">this</span>.m_StringValue.Equals((<span class="kwrd">string</span>) sb.m_StringValue)); }</div>
<div style="text-align:left;">
<p style="text-align:left;">Of course! How else could a StringBuilder claim to be 'Equal' to another... In fact it is perfectly reasonable but again shows the danger of late binding, making assumptions about how any 'object' type will perform.</p>
</div>
<div style="text-align:left;">
<p style="text-align:left;">So there was no real way for our extension to call the 'correct' equals. It called the base definition given above which is obvious now why it failed.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">
<p style="text-align:left;">So how do we fix this for the general case?</p>
<div style="text-align:left;">
<p style="text-align:left;">Here is the test case which I got working.. If your not familiar with this style of code,<strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"> </span></strong></p>

<p align="center">Lambadas are like an incredibly focused and powerful domain specific language for delegates.

<div style="text-align:left;"><a href="http://dcarr.files.wordpress.com/2008/05/image7.png"></a></div>
<div style="text-align:left;">So what about the implementation? Here it is:</div>
<p><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#9bdd22;">public static bool </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#feba1b;">EqualsThis&#60;TTarget&#62;(</span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#9bdd22;">this </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#feba1b;">TTarget sTarget, </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#2b91af;">Predicate</span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#feba1b;">&#60;TTarget&#62; EqualsDelegate) { </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#9bdd22;">return </span><span style="background:black 0 50%;color:#feba1b;">EqualsDelegate.Invoke(sTarget); }</span></p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><a href="http://11011.net/software/vspaste"></a></p>
<div style="text-align:left;">It's all about Expressions! Think of them as varied ways to receive executable code that you can 'invoke' literally, that must meet the contract you define.</div>
<div style="text-align:left;">This is so basic after we cover what the really useful applications are. However remember this has nothing to do with the examples, only the concepts they represent.</div>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-style:italic;">-Anyi Howell</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">When I was in middle school it was freaking. Before that it was humping. It was always inappropriate. It was always a simulation of sex. It was never called the “Rape Dance,” that is until some kids were caught on tape doing the forbidden dance with some onlookers saying “Rape that ho”. Now “Freakin'” or Humpin'” is being misinterpreted as “<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-mdX3PCHUlA">Rape Dancing</a>”. Changing the name of this dance style yet again won’t do anything to stop the dance itself from happening. It will only change young people’s attitudes and associations with the word rape, which is much more serious than two willing partners dry humping to the high hats and the bass of the beat.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">On youtube.com there are two videos that accurately portray what would be called a rape dance. The <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sUrowXXf0IA">first </a>is a young, sweaty Caucasian high school student walking up to people and grinding on them. The subjects, who are repulsed, push him off of them. This is a real rape dance because there is an unwanted advance. The <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4CX3EQzZT-k">other </a>“Rape Dance” is a bunch of annoying geeks shouting in cheerleader fashion “Stop! Don’t touch me there! This is my private square! R-A-P-E! Get your hands away from me!”.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">There was a Brazilian song and dance called the <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5AfTl5Vg73A">Lambada </a>in the 80’s that was deemed scandalous because it was a dance where partners grind bellies together. Some men killed their wives in Brazil for doing the dance with other men. While no one is killing over young people freaking on the dance floor, the outrage is still there. But youngstas have always been dirty dancing. Bobby Brown got arrested in the 80’s for gyrating with women on stage. <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z0UicmaIhLs">Elvis</a> was censored on the Ed Sullivan show in the 60’s for gyrating his pelvis by himself; they refused to include any part of him below the waist in the frame. I have a solution for people worried that “humping” will lead to rape, just as the Lambada led to murder: start teaching the Waltz and the Polka in schools again, or maybe the “<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sUOXgL4rvYk">Barefootin'</a>”.</p>

<p>Synopsis - A Beverly Hills school teacher by a day, Kevin Laird (J. Eddie Peck) journeys at night to a warehouse in East L.A, where a group of barrio kids gather to dance the lambada.</p>
<p>Using his dazzling dance moves to earn the kids' respect and acceptance, Kevin then teaches them academics in an informal backroom study hall. It's the best of both worlds, but then Sandy (Melora Hardin) a jealous and lovestruck student exposes Kevin's double life, his two worlds collide, threatening his job and reputation.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>Algumas pessoas querem emagrecer e buscam alternativas às competitivas academias. É possível emagrecer de outras formas. Pense em uma coisa que gosta muito como dançar!</em></p>
<p><em></em></p>
<p><em>Saiba um pouco mais sobre esse esporte tão rítmico:</em></p>
<p><em></em></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><strong>Dança de Salão</strong></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><strong></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><strong><a href="Nenhum"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-43" src="http://emagrecer.wordpress.com/files/2008/04/1150446954-salaonab1.jpg?w=300" alt="" width="300" height="289" /></a></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><strong></strong></p>
<p>A dança de salão é uma atividade física que pode ser feita por pessoas de todas as idades e nunca sai de moda. Sem contra indicações, é uma opção para quem quiser se exercitar e manter a forma, pois 40 minutos de exercício gasta 600 calorias.</p>
<p>O professor e bailarino Carlinhos de Jesus fala da dança como forma preventiva de doenças articulares, como artrose ou artrite e também de doenças circulatórias. “Por ser uma atividade física, os movimentos e passos ativam a circulação do sangue, principalmente nas pernas, além de proporcionar uma melhora considerável na postura”, afirma Carlinhos.</p>
<p>Beto Campos, bailarino e professor em São Paulo, fala que a dança de salão, além do corpo, também trabalha mente e contribui de forma terapêutica. “A partir do momento em que o indivíduo mexe o corpo, ele já está se exercitando, seja um ritmo lento, de baixa intensidade, ou acelerado, de alta intensidade. E durante o momento do exercício, o organismo produz a endorfina, conhecida como hormônio da felicidade”, fala o professor.</p>
<p class="subtitulo">Benefícios da dança</p>
<p>“A dança em geral é um meio de liberar toda a energia, de se descontrair, animar. E a dança de salão é ótima para isso, porque existe uma conotação social, uma integração devido à interação entre duas pessoas”, explica Carlinhos de Jesus. “É nítido como as pessoas tímidas, depois de um certo tempo de aula conseguem ficar mais comunicativas, mais seguras, pelo fato de saberem dançar. A dança vem sendo recomendada até mesmo por psicólogos e psiquiatras, como forma de melhorar a vida social do indivíduo”, declara Beto Campos.</p>
<p>E o professor Beto complementa, dizendo que 99% de seus alunos procuram a dança de salão porque se sentem sozinhos. “A dança de salão afasta a solidão, pois é um meio de aproximação entre as pessoas, tanto em uma aula quanto em uma festa”, explica Beto.</p>

'న్యూస్‌టుడే' ఆ ప్రాంతాన్ని సందర్శించి బాధితుల దయనీయ పరిస్థితుల్ని ప్రత్యక్షంగా చూసింది.</span></span></span></span></p>

<p><span><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:x-small;">కోల్పోయిన భూముల్లో రైతులందరికీ పని దొరకడం లేదు. నడివయసు దాటిన వారికి ఔషధ సంస్థలు పనులివ్వడం లేదు. తనకు వయస్సు మీరిందంటూ తిప్పి పంపారని టోప్యా అనే నిర్వాసితుడు తెలిపారు. ఈయన భార్యను మాత్రం పనిలో పెట్టుకున్నారు. 'గతంలో పొలం దున్ని నాలుగునెలలు పనిచేస్తే ఏడాది తినేవాళ్లం. ఇప్పుడు తమ భూముల్లోనే కంపెనీల తరపున ఎండలో పెద్దపెద్దరాళ్లు మోసే పనులు చేయలేక అల్లాడుతున్నాం. మా బతుకులు చెట్లపాలు, రాళ్లపాలు అయ్యాయి' అని గ్రామస్తులు విలపిస్తున్నారు. ప్రత్యేక ఆర్థిక మండలి చేపట్టిన వారిని ఏమైనా అడిగితే..

<p align="left">I thought I would loose my mind fighting off a terrible cold and not being able to blog as usual for the past two weeks.  While recovering at home I found an old shoe box full of cassettes. Yup.  I said cassettes.  One of the cassettes really took me back.  Way back! Do any of you remember <a target="_blank" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lambada_%28Kaoma_song%29"><font color="#008000">Kaoma</font></a> and the <a target="_blank" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lambada"><span style="color:#008000;" class="Apple-style-span">Lambada</span></a> craze of 1989? </p>
<p align="left">The Lambada was short lived in the United States but it is still very popular overseas in various interesting incarnations.  I have family in <a target="_blank" href="http://us.holland.com/"><font color="#008000">Holland,</font></a> <a target="_blank" href="http://www.visitportugal.com/Cultures/en-US/default.html"><font color="#008000">Portugal,</font></a> <a target="_blank" href="http://www.capeverdeexperience.com/docs/why_visit_cv/reasons_to_visit/reasons_to_go.aspx"><font color="#008000">Cape Verde</font></a> and <a target="_blank" href="http://www.geographia.com/curacao/"><font color="#008000">Curacao</font></a> and they are obsessed with <a target="_blank" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zouk-Lambada"><font color="#008000">Zouk-Lambada</font></a>.  The majority of Lambada is danced to <a target="_blank" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zouk"><font color="#008000">Zouk</font></a> and <a target="_blank" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kizomba"><font color="#008000">Kizomba</font></a> music.  There is an ongoing discussion as to whether Zouk-Lambada style is a new type of dance or a natural evolution of the Lambada of the early 90's.  Zouk-Lambada today is distinguisned by style.  Style types include differences such as tempo, specific movements and stepping techniques. </p>
<p align="left">Check out some of my favorite Zouk artists below.  Enjoy!</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Jag har fått dille på<strong> Youtube</strong> och musik, det kanske märks :-)</p>
<p>Har hittat fler gamla godingar. Jag och min barndomskompis lyssnade ganska mycket på låtar och satte ihop danser till låtarna. Vet att vi ofta stod i kompisens garage och tränade! Tre av låtarna vi gjorde en dans till var:</p>
<p><span><strong>Belinda Carlisle - Heaven Is A Place On Earth</strong></span><br />
<span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/VQahvFdQVu8'></param><param name='wmode' value='transparent'></param><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/VQahvFdQVu8&rel=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' wmode='transparent' width='425' height='350'></embed></object></span></p>
<p><strong>Anki Bagger - People Say It's In The Air<br />
</strong><span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/aF0BrhsPqs4'></param><param name='wmode' value='transparent'></param><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/aF0BrhsPqs4&rel=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' wmode='transparent' width='425' height='350'></embed></object></span></p>

<p>Vi brukade tom leka att vi var <strong>Lili och Sussie</strong>, jag var Sussie och kompisen var Lili. Vi var ute på turné, sjöng och dansade och träffade massa snygga killar såklart..hihi. Jag kom att tänka på mig när jag såg dottern igår kväll stod och dansade och sjöng som bara den till en skiva på sitt rum, jag stod och smög på henne för hon såg så himla söt ut. Tänk om man var barn igen, inga bekymmer och kunna leva ut alla sina känslor!</p>
<p>Kommer ni ihåg de här låtarna då? Älskade verkligen första låten här, min mamma skickade tom in en den här låten som en önskelåt i radion när jag fyllde år :-) Kommer inte riktigt ihåg vad jag fyllde, kanske 8-9 år?</p>
<p><strong>Gianna Nannini - I Maschi</strong><br />

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>When mothuka is in full bloom</strong></p>
<p><span class="DCText"><font size="2"></font></span></p>
<p><span class="DCText"></span><span class="DCText"><font size="2">Banjaras, or Lambadas, as they are known in Andhra Pradesh, know that it is the Holi season when the red mothuka flowers bloom.</font></span><span class="DCText"><font size="2"> </font></span><span class="DCText"><font size="2">Unlike city folks who restrict their celebration to a single day, Holi is a two-week-long affair for this indigenous tribe.</p>
<p>The celebrations, which begin on the Amavasi of the Phalgun month of the Hindu calendar, goes on till the Purnima day.</p>
<p>Preparations for Holi start with the community members going to the nearby forests to collect mothuka flowers.</p>
<p>The flowers are then dipped in a huge drum filled with water, that turns red overnight. And this natural colour is used to play Holi the next day.<!--more--></p>
<p>"Their way of celebrating Holi is very natural," said M. Subhash Chandra, director of the non-profit Centre for Action Research and People’s Development. "In fact, the Lambadas use only red colour during Holi celebrations."</p>
<p>Holi, of course, is not all about colours and for Lambadas, it is the time to strengthen family bonds as well.</p>
<p>Women in each thanda form groups and visit each Lambada home. Each group is also accompanied by two men. They collect some money from every home so that they can arrange a grand feast on the Purnima day. Toddy is served after the feast.</p>
<p>The singing and dancing activities are done by Daliyas, the traditional Lambada artistes. But as the celebrations touch high pitch, others join them too.</p>
<p>Members of the tribe, which has roots in Rajasthan, burn the effigy of ‘Kamudu,’ the Telugu God of lust, on the Purnima and not the effigy of demoness Holika, as is the practice in North India. Tribals in other parts of the state also use natural colours from mothuka and tur-meric to celebrate Holi.</p>
<p>But the trend is slowly changing. Many tribals now buy artificial colours from the market for their celebrations. "Nowadays very few people bother to make natural colours," said Tekam Ramu of Sirpur (U) mandal.</p>
<p>Like Lambadas, other tribal groups of the state also burn the effigy of Kamudu during Holi.</p>
<p>Each family contributes one dry coconut husk to the tribal head for the burning rite. In old days, tribal heads would use the occasion to exert their power and will. For instance, they would not accept a dry coconut from a family that has committed a mistake. This was akin to social boycott.</p>
<p>"These families would usually settle disputes and appease tribal heads before Holi to avoid ostracism," said Sidam Shambu, district president of Rai Centres.</p>
<p>Similarly, those who wanted to leave the tribe and settle in another village, would also donate one coconut to the tribal head.</p>
<p>When the curry prepared during the burning of Kamudu is served to the tribals, it would not be given to the aforesaid family members. This would send the message to others that one family is leaving the village.</p>

<description><![CDATA[&#8220;Кен лий&#8221; та &#8220;Кен лий&#8221; всеки това пее!
Пфууу]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p align="justify">"Кен лий" та "Кен лий" всеки това пее!<br />
Пфуууу! Гледай какво чудо, чудо голямо!<br />
А никой не е чувал... всъщност всички сте чували...<br />
Хайде от начало!</p>
<p>Беше 1990-та, тъкмо бяха "случили" палежа на Партийния дом, "Града на истината" си беше вдигнал палатките, лятната ваканция беше свършила и пак тръгнахме на училище. А една песен се чуваше от всяко дворско кафене, надънена на купената от битака уредба - <a href="http://youtube.com/watch?v=5AfTl5Vg73A">"Ламбада"</a>!</p>
<p align="justify">Идея си нямах коя е групата, а езика не ми говореше нищо, нито на мен, нито на съучениците ми. Португалски ли, испански ли, някой предположи, че е "бразилски". Един ден моята приятелка каза, че са й дали текста на песента. Отиваме след училище в тях - уж да пишем домашни, пък то да си препишем текста, че той е ценен и трябва да бъде върнат на собственика. Преписваме ние като монаси в средновековен манастир и внимаваме във всяка буква, че той португалския е език сложен и непонятен, току виж не препишем както трябва и отишъл коня в реката! Пишем, на португалски с кирилица:</p>
<p><em>"Шоооо ран ду сифой, кеюнджи а сони фешорааа<br />
Шоооо ран ду сифой, кеюнджи а сони фешорааа</em></p>
<p><em>Шора куестара аулембрачи мамор<br />
Ке юндижи нанонсоби куйда<br />
Шоран дестара ау лембрачи ду мамор<br />
Ке юндижи нанонсоби куйда</em></p>
<p><em>Аегор пасан паиста прасемпре унджипор..." </em></p>
<p>Нататък не си спомням, но тия няколко ги помня и до ден днешен! Текста беше разпръснат сред всички в училище, предаваше се от ръка на ръка като апокриф. Преди година на една сватба един приятел даже я пя със същите думи, които ви цитирах :) А истинския текст ли?:</p>
<p><em>"Chorando se foi quem um dia so me fez chorar<br />
Chorando se foi quem um dia so me fez chorar</em></p>
<p><em>Chorando estara ao lembrar de um amor<br />
Que um dia nao soube cuidar<br />
Chorando estara ao lembrar de um amor<br />
Que um dia nao soube cuidar</em></p>
<p><em>A recordacao vai estar com ele aonde for..."</em></p>
<p align="justify">Така става като не знае някой езика, пее си каквото си иска. Ако се беше случил "Кен лий" тогава - никой нямаше да се смее. Английския се знаеше колкото и португалския.<br />
Навремето всички пеехме "Шоранду сифой" и никой не стана известен от това.<br />
Никой нямаше и да разбере! Някъде из нас трябва да се въргаля една касета - с детските ми записи - май нямам и касетофон, на който да пусна хоровото изпълнение от един рожден ден на "Ламбада". Колко е максималния брой хора, който щеше да я чуе тогава?!<br />
Голямо нещо е знаието на езици ще знаете! А техниката и нета пък колко са големи...<br />
Та в ония години "Кен лий" просто нямаше да се състои, струва ми се. :) Техниката ни води към прогрес, ама не си ли мултиплицираме регреса чрез тоя прогрес - е те това не ми е много ясно!</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p align="justify">É, já deu para entender que a <strike>novelinha</strike> série de mais destaque nos últimos tempos Ugly Betty adora o Brasil, principalmente o Rio de Janeiro. E deu para entender também que finalmente o Brasil está se consolidando como um país da moda, no entando o <em>status</em> de pseudoparaíso é o que ainda chama atenção dos estrangeiros.</p>
<p align="center"><a rel="attachment wp-att-76" href="http://quetal.wordpress.com/2008/03/17/hora-da-lambada-ha/76/" title="ugly-betty.jpg"><img src="http://quetal.wordpress.com/files/2008/03/ugly-betty.jpg" alt="ugly-betty.jpg" /></a></p>
<p align="justify">No último episódio exibido pela Sony Entertainment Television no Brasil, Quarta-Feira, 12, Daniel Meade, o herdeiro garanhão e Diretor de Edição da revista Mode, deveria estar no Rio de Janeiro se recuperando de um toco amoroso, segundo um programa de fofocas. Betty (Suárez) encontra o chefe em seu apartamente que estava (no mínimo) uma bagunça. Depois de susto para cá, susto para lá e conversas. Betty diz que achava que ele estava no Rio já que mandava postais a ela dizendo que o clima estava ótimo e que tinha de ir porque era a "Lambada Time" (Hora da Lambada). E eu fiquei pensando "Hora da Lambada? Lambada?!".</p>
<p align="justify"> Algumas pessoas reclamam e mandam eu estudar a Tropicália e todos os movimentos musicais brasileiros do passado para dar mais valor. Mas eu não consigo aceitar essa coisa de o Brasil continuar exportando essa imagem jurássica de que nós só escutamos Bossa Nova, Samba-raiz e Lambada! Poxa, adoro Lambada, acho um ritmo muito interessante. Mas não toca mais tanto assim. O Brasil nunca vai andar para frente, não? E dentre tantos artistas bons que temos aqui, todo músico internacional que vem fazer show em terras tupiniquins, quando perguntado se conhece música brasileira sempre responde a mesma coisa: "Gilberto Gil", "Caetano Veloso", "Jorge Ben" ou "João Gilberto". <em>Cansei de Ser Sexy</em> ou <em>CSS</em> e também o <em>Bonde do Role</em> tem feito significativo sucesso lá fora e com exceção da Mtv ninguém fala nisso.</p>
<p align="justify">Hora da Lambada? As crianças nem devem saber o que é isso. A lambada mais tocada é a versão de "Chorando se foi" que a <em>Ivete Sangalo</em> fez e nada mais. Nem o <em>melodicbrega</em> que é uma mistura de música eletrônica com lambada teve ascensão ainda. Então, Betty da próxima vez usa "Samba Time", "Forró Time", "Funk Time", ou melhor, "Axé Time". Mesmo detestando toda essa bagunça por conta desta música, até um "Créu Time" eu aceitaria melhor.</p>

<description><![CDATA[Advise them to get hysterectomy done when the ailment could be best treated with antibiotics
Roli Sr]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Advise them to get hysterectomy done when the ailment could be best treated with antibiotics</strong></p>
<p>Roli Srivastava</p>
<p>Hyderabad: A surgery to treat an ailment that can be cured with antibiotics may sound far fetched, but in a small mandal of Medak district, about 70 km from here, such medical treatment is a reality.</p>
<p>Last Sunday, about 600 women from the ‘Lambada' tribe gathered for a meeting organised by a social organisation, to discuss their health problems. From severe back aches to depression and from chest pain to aching joints - the problems slowly tumbled out and so did the reason for their poor health - all the assembled women, some aged under 40 and many as young as 21, have undergone hysterectomy (removal of the uterus) at the advice of their local private practitioners. The drastic treatment was given to cure these women of pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), which is best treated with a course of antibiotics.<!--more--></p>
<p>"The 600 women are from Kowdipally mandal of Medak district, and have spent an average of Rs 10,000 each on their treatment,'' says Subhash Chandra, project director of Centre for Action Research and People's Development (CARPED) that has conducted the survey among these women. Predictably, these families have run into huge debts, given that they are daily wage workers on agricultural lands. The alarming revelation, confirmed by the government doctors in the area, is just the tip of the iceberg. Health activists note that such instances are repeating themselves with an alarming frequency across the state, where private doctors are cheating illiterate villagers into taking expensive treatment that is best avoided for their condition.</p>
<p>CARPED conducted the survey when it found that in a small hamlet of 13 families, women from eight households had undergone hysterectomy. Alarmed, they conducted the survey in the entire mandal and calculated a spending of close to Rs 60 lakh on this medical procedure. "The local doctors they (women) consult create a fear among them that the infection (pelvic inflammatory disease) could lead to cancer and that a hysterectomy is cure for it,'' says Dr M Padma, in-charge of the primary healthcare centre (PHC) at Kowdipally. While at the PHC, they are told about how medication and maintaining hygiene would offer them relief, the patients are often in a hurry for a quick cure. And private practitioners are exploiting their impatience.</p>
<p>The pelvic infection among women is mainly because of home deliveries when untrained ayahs attend to them, according to Dr Padma. Nevertheless, Dr Padma maintains that none of the infections in any of the women she has also examined were cancerous or needed surgery. "At times, the doctors they consult are not gynaecologists but might perform surgery to make good money,'' says Dr C K George, director of Institute of Health Systems, a reputed health research body that deals largely with public health issues. Dr George said hysterectomy is not the treatment for PID and an operation is done only in extreme cases.</p>
