El presidente venezolano Hugo R. Chavez Frias confirmo la madrugada de este miercoles que finalmente se afilio a la red de mensajes de twitter.

Venceremos!!

Advent: Time of Prophets and Prophesies

2008-12-08T06:17:00.000-08:00

I've been a Catholic all of my life, but I never really stopped and thought about some of the celebrations that our church do in preparation for the birth of Jesus Christ. A clear example of that is "Advent" o "Adviento" in Spanish. From the Latin root "Adventus" that means "Arrival", the celebration refers to the waiting time in preparation for the day Jesus was born, in other words, the period right before Christmas.
This particular celebration is full of traditions and symbolism due to the importance that it has on the Christian world. One of the things that this periods brings to the scene is the word of the Prophets from the old testament and their ways of communication with the Angels and other supernatural beings.
Many of those prophets were treated as "insane" back in the day when they predicted the 2nd coming of our Lord Jesus to our world, and some of those prophets still live among us today, and also keep being treated in the same way they were treated thousands of years ago.
I want to dedicate a little space in my blog, schedule, and life to one of the most amazing things that I've seen in the last years...

Benjamin Solari Parravicini
(El "Pelon" de Buenos Aires)

Solari Parravicini was an Argentinian artist born in capital Buenos Aires on 1898. Living with his family on his early days, "Pelon"(as his family called him with love, meaning "Little Bald") confessed to hear voices talking to him all the time as a kid. His family always took his comments as the kid's imaginative mind creations, but never really paid attention to them. As he grew old, Parravicini tried Law school, Nursing, and some other college careers but never felt totally comfortable with any of them.
Frustrated by his unsuccessful education options, Benjamin took a different turn by dedicating himself to the social nocturnal life of beautiful Buenos Aires, life he enjoyed for some years unaware of what soon will change his life forever.
Always surrounded by his parent's old house mysteries, "Pelon" returned one late night to his place to get some rest for the next day. His youngest brother said he heard him getting on his room, and that after few minutes a loud noise disturbed the silence of the old mansion. His brother ran into Benjamin's room to see what happened, and when he opened the door, Benjamin was sitting on his bed looking at one of the room walls. His lamp was made out of heavy iron, and Benjamin told his brother that he saw how it bounced from side to side and then flew and crashed full speed against his wall, now visibly damage by the impact. Aware of Benjamin lifestyle, his brother didn't pay much attention to the incident and went back to bed. After that night, Parravicini's life will turn unexpectedly one last time.

Benjamin told his brother later on, that he was receiving messages from mysterious voices that told him to grab a pencil and draw their messages, then he will go unconscient for few minutes, and that when he was back, he had draw extraneous figures with messages on them. A true Catholic, Benjamin felt as if this was incorrect to the eyes of God and burned many of his first drawing, but later on the same voices that communicated with him, told him that God wants him to collect his messages, and that those voices he heard were from angels of God delivering his word to him.

The prophetic message of Solari Parravicini
The complete article comes form a third party's web page, but I will isolate the ones that had more impact on me as I read the history of Benjamin.

Spanish: "La libertad de Norte America perdera su luz - La antorcha no aluminara como ayer y el monumento sera atacado dos veces"

English: "North America will lose its liberty light. Its torch won't illuminate like it did yesterday, and the monument will be hit twice" BSP 1939.

Message received in 1939, 62 years before the attack of WTC on September 11, 2001.

Spanish: "Cabeza de barba, que parecera santa mas no lo sera y encendera las Antillas"

English: "Head with beard, that will look as Santa, but that it won't be, and that will spark off the Antilles" BSP 1937

Message received in 1937, 39 years before Fidel Castro became dictator of Cuba.

Message received in 1941, 20 years earlier than NASA send Mercury Freedom 7 with Alan Shepard on the United States' first manned sub-orbital space flight on the race against Russia for space.

The video is in Spanish, I tried to find it in English but my search was unsuccessful. If you can find the English version please let me know so I can share it with the rest of the group.
Thanks!

Please post your comments on the comment section of this blog, and if you can find more information about Parravicini that is not on any of the links and info that I posted in here, please sent it to me so I can reviewed and shared with the rest of the group.
Thanks for reading my blog.

Recordemos a un amigo...

2008-05-21T12:28:00.001-07:00

Siempre que perdemos a un ser querido, recordamos los mejores momentos que compartimos junto a ellos, sus gracias, su manera de vivir, etc.
Cuando perdemos a un amigo de la forma que perdimos a Carlos, siempre nos queda una pregunta. Por que?
Este espacio te lo quiero dedicar con todo el respeto que tu y tu familia se merecen, para recolectar un poco todas esas vivencias que tuvimos todos aquellos que tuvimos el placer de conocerte.
Descansa en paz amigo mio, yo se que estas en un sitio que Dios te ha dado con mucho amor.
por siempre:

What is Pangea Day?

2008-05-07T12:37:00.000-07:00

Pangea Day taps the power of film to strengthen tolerance and compassion while uniting millions of people to build a better future.

In a world where people are often divided by borders, difference, and conflict, it's easy to lose sight of what we all have in common. Pangea Day seeks to overcome that — to help people see themselves in others — through the power of film.

On May 10, 2008 — Pangea Day — sites in Cairo, Kigali, London, Los Angeles, Mumbai, and Rio de Janeiro will be linked live to produce a program of powerful films, visionary speakers, and uplifting music.

The program will be broadcast live to the world through the Internet, television, digital cinemas, and mobile phones.

Of course, movies alone can't change the world. But the people who watch them can. So following May 10, 2008, Pangea Day organizers will facilitate community-building activities around the world by connecting inspired viewers with numerous organizations that are already doing groundbreaking work.

Help free the West Memphis Three (WM3)

2008-05-05T12:05:00.000-07:00

Shortly after three eight-year-old boys were found murdered in West Memphis, Arkansas, local newspapers stated the killers had been caught. The police assured the public that the three teenagers in custody were definitely responsible for these horrible crimes. Evidence?

The same police officers coerced an error-filled "confession" from Jessie Misskelley Jr., who is mentally handicapped. They subjected him to 12 hours of questioning without counsel or parental consent, audio-taping only two fragments totaling 46 minutes. Jessie recanted it that evening, but it was too late -- Misskelley, Jason Baldwin and Damien Echols were all arrested on June 3, 1993, and convicted of murder in early 1994.

Although there was no physical evidence, murder weapon, motive, or connection to the victims, the prosecution pathetically resorted to presenting black hair and clothing, heavy metal t-shirts, and Stephen King novels as proof that the boys were sacrificed in a satanic cult ritual. Unfathomably, Echols was sentenced to death, Baldwin received life without parole, and Misskelley got life plus 40.

For over 14 years, The West Memphis Three have been imprisoned for crimes they didn't commit. Echols waits in solitary confinement for the lethal injection our tax dollars will pay for. They were all condemned by their poverty, incompetent defense, satanic panic and a rush to judgment.

But there's still hope for them, and you can help.

The World in Action

2008-05-04T13:58:00.000-07:00

Avaaz.org is a new global web movement with a simple democratic mission: to close the gap between the world we have, and the world most people everywhere want.
“Avaaz” means “Voice” in many Asian, Middle Eastern and Eastern European languages.
Across the world, most people want stronger protections for the environment, greater respect for human rights, and concerted efforts to end poverty, corruption and war. Yet globalization faces a huge democratic deficit as international decisions are shaped by political elites and unaccountable corporations -- not the views and values of the world’s people.
Technology and the internet have allowed citizens to connect and mobilize like never before. The rise of a new model of internet-driven, people-powered politics is changing countries from Australia to the Philippines to the United States. Avaaz takes this model global, connecting people across borders to bring people powered politics to international decision-making.

Sign the ONE declaration and make poverty history!

2008-04-24T13:39:00.000-07:00

The ONE Campaign seeks to raise public awareness about the issues of global poverty, hunger, disease and efforts to fight such problems in developing countries.

WE BELIEVE that in the best American tradition of helping others help themselves, now is the time to join with other countries in a historic pact for compassion and justice to help the poorest people of the world overcome AIDS and extreme poverty.
WE RECOGNIZE that a pact including such measures as fair trade, debt relief, fighting corruption and directing additional resources for basic needs - education, health, clean water, food, and care for orphans - would transform the futures and hopes of an entire generation in the poorest countries, at a cost equal to just one percent more of the US budget.
WE COMMIT ourselves - one person, one voice, one vote at a time - to make a better, safer world for all."
