			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>To describe the traffic in India you only need two words:  <strong>Organized Chaos</strong>. The traffic is a mix of cars, bicycles, motorbikes, trucks, buses, ox carts pulling goods, rickshaws, cows and goats, sometimes monkeys near temples and lots of stray dogs&#8230; all of them <del>driving</del> fighting for the same space on the road!</p>
<p>There are traffic rules but the police not really enforce it, and with good reason: The traffic in India is <strong>massive </strong>in numbers, and there is a slow but consistent flow of vehicles. If you make the people enforce the traffic laws, you will make everything slower, the people will become frustrated and they will try to do <strong>even more amazing stunts </strong>to flow trough the traffic.<strong> It&#8217;s amazing to just sit down on a busy crossroad and watch the traffic. It&#8217;s more entertaining than a good movie!  </strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Randy is a computer science teacher who had recently been diagnosed with terminal cancer. He prepare a last lecture for his students. His history is really passional and was about the importance of overcoming obstacles, of enabling the dreams of others, of seizing every moment. It was a summation of everything Randy had come to believe. It was about living.</p>
<p>Randy transmits in only 10 minutes a lot of energy. He want the people to improve their mindset, refocus their priorities looking at the bottom of their hearths to find what is really important in life. He also mention perseverence is the key to sucess and how you should live your life: <strong>Always having fun everyday in every single action. </strong><em>Which has been also my mantra in the last times.</em></p>
<p>I really have enjojed this lecture and I&#8217;ve seen that although Randy has so time left, he has written a book (<a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1401323251?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=davigraj-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=1401323251">The Last Lecture</a><img src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=davigraj-20&amp;l=as2&amp;o=1&amp;a=1401323251" style="border: medium none  ! important; margin: 0px ! important" border="0" height="1" width="1" />) that seems also very interesting and motivational. The following video is the lecture he prepared for their sons. &#8220;I think it&#8217;s great that so many people have benefited from this lecture, but the truth of the matter is that I didn&#8217;t really even give it to the 400 people at Carnegie Mellon who came. I only wrote this lecture for three people, and when they&#8217;re older, they&#8217;ll watch it,&#8221;</p>
<p>Watch it with a clear mind.</p>

Thanks Jaimi for let me know this stuff.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Here is the topic that it&#8217;s dividing more the spanish society than the national elections we had last week. Our candidate for <a href="http://www.eurovision.tv/">Eurovision song contest 2008</a>.  El Chiqui Chiqui.  The Chiqui Chiqui is a <strong>extreme freak song </strong>produced and promoted from the Buenafuente tv show. Rodolfo Chiquilicuatre is a fiction character played by a comedian and the song was designed in a couple of days by the show&#8217;s scriptwritters. At the beginning it was only a joke, only a way to <strong>make fun of the eurovision contest</strong>. Today, all the people is dancing the Chiqui Chiqui.</p>
<p>How it sounds? The rhythm is <strong>reggaeton</strong> with<strong> funny stupid dance steps</strong>, the lyric is crazy. Here is the videoclip of the original version (english dubbed). The lyric Rodolfo will sing in the competition it&#8217;s cleaner but it&#8217;s also longer with new english verses.</p>
<p width="425" height="355">&nbsp;</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0" width="425" height="355"><param name="width" value="425" /><param name="height" value="355" /><param name="wmode" value="transparent" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/udVl4XNx4PM&amp;rel=0&amp;hl=es" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="355" wmode="transparent" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/udVl4XNx4PM&amp;rel=0&amp;hl=es"></embed></object></p>
<p>Chiqui Chiqui song is a huge success probably because it was promoted and backed by a entire national channel but also because it has been seriously pushed through internet marketing up to the point of become a social phenommenom. <strong>Chiqui Chiqui is our best example of viral marketing</strong>. I&#8217;ve seen <strong>yoda</strong> dancing Chiki Chiki, a secondlife version, the <strong>teletubbies</strong>, all the simpson&#8217;s characters, <strong>counter-strike terrorists</strong>, michael jackson, hundreds of freaks, a CSI character, a WOW giant, bush, stevie of family guy and tens of other fan created versions.</p>
<p>How it is possible this song is representing us? A couple of months ago it was determined that this year our national representative was going to be elected through internet polls using a special myspace site. Tons of videoclips were uploaded, some of them of traditional or pop songs and music but mayority of them were home made and were totally freak.</p>
<p>The Chiqui Chiqui was almost always liderating the poll and recently has finally won the competition. But menwhile was necessary to accept thousands of bad critics, the rejection of the hardcore traditional eurovision journalists and the modification of the rules to make it lose votes.</p>
<p>Our society is splitted. <strong>There are people how loves Chiqui Chiqui because as we are going to lose anyway, at least we can enjoy a funny moment and make some laughts</strong>. But there is also the people how understand the competition as a very serious european simbol where each country present the best it can and they disagree with the freak show it&#8217;s becoming.</p>
<p>In the last years the eastern new republics started to present freak people. This year there is our Spanish Chiqui Chiqui but there is also a <strong>puppet turkey representing Ireland</strong>.</p>
<p>I love Chiqui Chiqui. And I&#8217;m not the only one, look at the TOP poll at the <a href="http://www.esctime.com/">official</a> fan <a href="http://www.esctime.com/">website</a>.</p>
<p><img src="http://en.david.grajal.net/wp-content/uploads/2008/03/poll.jpg" alt="poll.jpg" /></p>
<p>If Chiqui Chiqui wins the competition Spain will collapse. <strong>Seriously.</strong></p>
