El primer grupo, Litio, nos lo hemos perdido. Son estos unos grupos de Gótico flamígero o no sé qué, al menos Entwine, que son de Finlandia. Embellish, pese al nombre, son edpañoles. Pongo aquí unas fotitos porque los videos no sé cómo ponerlos. Pero que ha estado muy bonito, me ha gustado mucho y los personajes eran muy interesantes y hacían cosas que me han llamado mucho la atención. Fin del comentario de texto.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We just came back from Entwine´s concert, with Embellish as opening act. We just missed the first band, Litio. These are goth bands, specially Entwine the finns. Embellish, despite the name, are Spanish. I am posting some pics here because I know not how to post videos. It was a cool gig, or quoting the lead singer of Entwine, "It was fucking awesome!"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/5253/1874/320/967996/Pc161429.jpg" border="0" /&gt;Embellish. Por un momento me pensé que era mi amigo Víctor cantando, pero es que está en Corea.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is Embellish.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/5253/1874/1600/670554/Pc161440.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/5253/1874/320/908698/Pc161440.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Embellish with some Valkiries from Hell as guest dancers.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Embellish con unas Valkiria-bailarinas invitadas. &lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/5253/1874/320/981490/PC161448.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Entwine. It was really cool, we enjoyed it very much. It was fucking awesome, the only thing that sucked was that they did not indulge us with an encore. But if you read this, Entwine, you must know that from today you are my number 2 favourite Finnish band. Great gig!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Entwine. Ha molado mucho, nos lo hemos pasado genial. Ha estado que te cagas, pero lo que ha apestado es que no ha habido bises. Pero si leen esto, sobre todo el texto en inglés, claro, que sepan que desde hoy son mi segundo grupo Finés favorito. ¡Un concierto genial!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19019468-116622909821888942?l=nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/feeds/116622909821888942/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19019468&amp;postID=116622909821888942' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/116622909821888942'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/116622909821888942'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/2006/12/fatal-tour-2006-entwine-embellish.html' title=''/><author><name>Miguel Ángel</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01404081363933861079</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19019468.post-116608929107142615</id><published>2006-12-14T10:03:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2006-12-14T10:41:32.053+01:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>Más del Salón...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;More of the Convention...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/5253/1874/1600/561330/PC031318.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/5253/1874/320/233203/PC031318.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; My minions&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mis esbirros&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/5253/1874/1600/859238/PC021308.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/5253/1874/320/937162/PC021308.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; The gig&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;El lugar&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/5253/1874/1600/492850/PC031334.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/5253/1874/320/215562/PC031334.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; The freaks&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;El concurso de disfraces y karaoke&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19019468-116608929107142615?l=nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/feeds/116608929107142615/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19019468&amp;postID=116608929107142615' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/116608929107142615'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/116608929107142615'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/2006/12/ms-del-saln.html' title=''/><author><name>Miguel Ángel</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01404081363933861079</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19019468.post-116605218800110689</id><published>2006-12-13T23:42:00.001+01:00</published><updated>2006-12-20T01:46:08.253+01:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>Han pasado muchas cosas en las últimas semanas de ausencia del Blog. El viaje desde Rusia, SPB-Moscú-Madrid, el adaptarse a la vida en Madrid, la visita a Ikea, el Salón, la reforma de la casa, el modem que se quemó y ahora el que nos han repuesto que ya no es un modem sino un "router" y ahora podemos conectarnos a varios ordenadores a la vez... Como no tengo tiempo de poner fotos de todo, ya pongo sólo de Expocómic, el momento cumbre del año, y lo demás os lo imagináis. La semana que viene nos vamos a Tenerife, y espero poder cosillas desde allí. Qué agradable la vida del parado.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Several things happened in the last weeks of abscense, like the trip from Russia, SPB-Moscow-Madrid, adapting to Madrid, a visit to Ikea, the convention, the new furniture a home, the old modem burning out and the replacement, a router so we can split the connection... So, as I have no time or photos for all of that, I will just post of Expocomic, the main moment of the year, and the rest you can try to imagine it. Next week we go to Tenerife and I hope to post things from there. It is a hard unemplyment life now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/5253/1874/1600/926929/PC021287.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/5253/1874/320/110301/PC021287.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Salvador Larroca disfrazado de Pasqual Ferry, Bucky, The Reverend Dave Johnson, Jamie Delano, Peter Milligan and others...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/5253/1874/1600/51326/PC021301.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/5253/1874/320/486965/PC021301.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Alex, the Reverend, potentate of the 33rd degree (looking upwards) and Bucky.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/5253/1874/1600/41863/PC021286.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/5253/1874/320/105341/PC021286.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; The awards, waiting to be given out, and looking quite bored, I must say.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Los premios antes de ser entregados, y con pinta de aburrirse, la verdad.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/5253/1874/320/162740/PC021262.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Visitors to the show&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19019468-116605218800110689?l=nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/feeds/116605218800110689/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19019468&amp;postID=116605218800110689' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/116605218800110689'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/116605218800110689'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/2006/12/han-pasado-muchas-cosas-en-las-ltimas_13.html' title=''/><author><name>Miguel Ángel</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01404081363933861079</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19019468.post-116354644743071417</id><published>2006-11-14T22:56:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2006-11-15T00:20:47.550+01:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>De tapas es Escocia&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tapas in Scotland&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Esos locales de tapeo tan entrañables que se encuentran en el extranjero, son incomparables.

At his feet there is the real story of his life and death for all those who have not seen the film, and that I have very kindly translated to Spanish for all those who can't or don't want to read it in original version.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/textowallace.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/400/textowallace.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; A Eduardo I de Inglaterra, que había tratado con todo el morro del mundo anexionarse Escocia a sus dominios, se le opuso Wallace, gracias a cuya suprema sabiduría, valor sin parangón y unos huevos que ya los quisiera el toro de Osborne, los ingleses fueron mandados de una patada en el culo de vuelta a Londres a comer pescado grasiento con patatas, y la milenaria independencia de la gran y soleada Escocia fue recuperada.&lt;br /&gt;Eduardo no se rendía, y redoblaba sus esfuerzos por conquistar Escocia mientras el mundo se preguntaba: ?qué leches habrá allí que merezca la pena el esfuerzo? pero todos los intentos fueron rechazados heróicamente por Wallace sin Gromit y con la mitad del a cara pintada de azul y berreando que no le quitarían la libertad, hasta que por hacerles una culada a los ingleses, le pillaron con el kilt bajado y los traidores de la nobleza le vendieron, fue apresado, metido en un vuelo de Easyjet a Londres y entregado cual traidor al rey Inglés, entre burlas e indignidades, como negarle sus tostadas con judias pintas para desayunar. Pero él, oh magnífico y gallardo, resistió con entereza y compostura.&lt;br /&gt;El 23 de Agosto, este GRAN HÉROE fue llevado a Smithfiled, y tras ver el partido contra el United, y con Eduardo y su bolsa de palomitas como testigos de excepción, fue tristemente hecho uno con la Fuerza únicamente por su amor por la libertad, su resistencia a la agresión y su fidelidad a su tierra natal (y toda la historia esa de la tía que se estaba ligando y que le mataron los ingleses son licencias de Hollywood, que la pasta es la pasta)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19019468-116346281159146469?l=nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/feeds/116346281159146469/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19019468&amp;postID=116346281159146469' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/116346281159146469'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/116346281159146469'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/2006/11/aberdeen-gtica-goth-aberdeen-la-semana.html' title=''/><author><name>Miguel Ángel</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01404081363933861079</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19019468.post-116250796251714468</id><published>2006-11-02T23:19:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2006-11-05T21:01:31.216+01:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>Mi primer sushi.

De noche, tiene unos reflectores que le iluminan y proyectan una sombra sobre el edificio que tiene detrás, y que alberga la puerta de entrada-salida a la Plaza Roja. No conozco la versión oficial de este hecho, pero a mi me parece que esta sombra da la sensación de que Zhukov está permanentemente dirigiendo el desfile de la victoria en la Plaza Roja, y que las tropas van a seguirle a continuación.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By the entrance to the Red Square we can find the statue of Marshall Zhukov, twice condecorated with the Order of Victory and four times Hero of the Soviet Union (among others). At night it is illuminated with spotlights and they cast a shadow over the building behind the statue next to the main gate to the Square. I don't know if this is made specially, but to me it gives the impression that Zhukov is permanently guiding the Victory Parade out of the Red Square and that the rest of the Red Army will follow him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/PA240921.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prestad atención a la sombra de los pies del caballo, que tocan el suelo, como si estuviese cabalgando. Y tambien ved que la sombra del culo del caballo está en la pared del edificio contiguo, lo que no sé si estaba en los planes del que diseñó el truquito este.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Look at the horse's feet shadow, touching the ground, as if it would be riding. Also notice that the shadow of the horse's ass is on the other building, which I am not sure was in the designer of this trick's mind when he thought about it.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/PA240923.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/PA240923.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Primer plano de la sombra del culo del caballo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Close shot on the horse's ass shadow.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/PA240925.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/PA240925.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Y el ángulo inverso de la jugada, con Elena sacando la misma foto que yo al mismo tiempo (que eran las 7 de la madrugada)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And another angle of the same shot, with Elena shooting the same pic than me at the same time (which was 7 in the morning)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19019468-116198844074946767?l=nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/feeds/116198844074946767/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19019468&amp;postID=116198844074946767' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/116198844074946767'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/116198844074946767'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/2006/10/la-entrada-de-la-plaza-roja-se.html' title=''/><author><name>Miguel Ángel</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01404081363933861079</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19019468.post-116180448283433555</id><published>2006-10-25T21:12:00.000+02:00</published><updated>2006-10-31T10:44:37.106+01:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/Miguel_3.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/Miguel_3.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Me  in Moscow!!

Pasamos la noche en uno de esos horribles coches-cama de los trenes rusos (sin dormir ni un segundo), con dos gordos roncando durmiendo en el mismo compartimento, y llegamos a Moscú a las 6 de la mañana. La estación a donde llegamos fue Leningradsky, famosa en España desde el reportaje de los niños sin hogar que viven en ella. Ya pondré fotos, pero ahora es demasiado triste pensar en eso. Como estábamos citados a las 11, tuvimos tiempo de dar un paseo, hacer muchas fotos, y pasar sueño por la calle. No quiero poner las fotos típicas de Moscú, sino algo menos conocido, a ver si os gustan, seguiré poniendo más a lo largo de la semana.&lt;br /&gt;Yesterday we went to Moscow to sort out some paperwork at the Spanish consulate. We arrived by train, in one of those horrible sleeping carts with two Russian fat bastards snoring in our compartment, did not sleep, of course, and got there quite early, 6 in the morning. We arrived to Leningradsky station, notorious for the homeless children living in it. No pics of that for now, ok? As we had our appointment at 11, we had time to go for a walk, take many pics and be sleepy on the street. I don't want to post typical pics of Moscow, but something less well-known. I hope you like them, I will keep posting along the week.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Justo al lado del Kremlin hay un parque con fuentes y estatuas dedicadas a fábulas populares. Estos caballos no sé si son de fábula o de adorno, pero son bonitos.&lt;br /&gt;Right next to the Kremlin there is a park with fountains and statues dedicated to popular tales and stuff. I don't know if these horses are from a tale or not, but they are nice.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/PA240910.0.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Este pájaro es de una fábula, pero no recuerdo exactamente de cuál, agradecería algo de ayuda. No sé si es el faisán de oro, o el pájaro de fuego o el pavo de noséqué... pero mola.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This bird is from a tale, but I just can't remember from which one... the golden pheasant, the firebird, the peacock of whatever... help would be appreciatted here.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/PA240914.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/PA240914.0.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; El fundador de la ciudad de Moscú hace ochocientos años largos.

It was like 7:35 in the morning when I took it. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Esta es más típica, pero me salió tan bien que me apetecía ponerla.

A Robredo lo eliminaron en primera ronda, claro, pero con suerte veremos algo interesante.

Parece el comienzo de un chiste, pero no lo es. Continúo. Un grupo de turistas pijos españoles entra en un bar-restaurante del centro de San Petersburgo. Entran hablando a grito tendido, fumando, riendo a carcajadas, como buenos españoles, con sus camisas-polo blancas y pantalones cortos ellos, y camisas con pañuelito o jersey al cuello ellas. Y se sientan agrupando las mesas para estar todos juntitos y demostrar lo buenos amigos que son, volviendo loca a la guía turística rusa que intenta en vano conducir el rebaño. El cabecilla del grupo, el pijo estándar de treinta y tantos con su polo y sus pantalones cortos, calcetines blancos hasta las rodillas y gafas, se encarga de recoger el dinero para pagar la cuenta. El “bote’, vamos. Maldita costumbre española de que todos pagan lo mismo aunque algunos no beban vino ni tomen postre. Pero divago... Recoge el dinero, y se acoda en la barra de sushi cercana a su mesa a contarlo mientras charla distraídamente con la pareja (de cincuenta y tantos, pijos) más cercana a él. Ha reunido quinientos euros, o sea, unos seiscientos y pico dólares, recalca. Probablemente suficiente par pagar la cena. Claro, siempre y cuando los cambies a rublos, lechón, que es la moneda de curso legal del país.&lt;br /&gt;Así que, satisfecho con su conversión a dólares, pasa a preguntarle a la camarera, en un inglés de “Jom Inglish”:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-          Jaf yu got a envelop? (En espanish ¿tiene una sobre?)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;La camarera le mira perpleja. Responde en un inglés bastante mejor que el del pijo, que no entiende.  Para ser justo con el pijo, diré que al menos no siguió la costumbre española de gritar cuando alguien no entiende el idioma que está hablando. Se limitó a repetir lo del envelop sin gritar.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;La camarera, seguía sin saber lo que es un envelop. Se lo pregunta por tercera vez, esta vez blandiendo el fajo de billetes de euro frente a su cara. La camarera debía pensar que todos estos años había estado equivocada, y que nuestra moneda se llama envelop y no euro.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;La pareja de pijos de cincuenta y tantos, le pregunta al pijo de treinta y tantos, que qué quiere. Les explica que quiere un sobre para guardar el dinero porque si no lo va a perder. Fue en este momento cuando yo, que por cierto, estaba sentado para desgracia mía en la mesa contigua, tuve el placer de enterarme de por qué leches estaba allí impidiendo que disfrutásemos de nuestro maki, que era el motivo principal de que hubiésemos visitado ese restaurante aquella tarde.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Vuelve a la carga con lo del envelop. La camarera, sigue perpleja. Entonces, su cara, la del pijo, se ilumina. Ha encontrado la solución perfecta para que esta camarera que no sabe hablar español ni sabe lo que es un envelop, comprenda lo que ha estado explicando tan claramente durante varios minutos. Saca su billetero. Y poniéndolo delante de la cara de la camarera, muy lentamente introduce en ella los billetes de euro mientras repite la palabra envelop. La camarera sigue perpleja. El pijo explica a la pareja (de pijos) con voz de incredulidad, que está imitando el gesto de meter los billetes en un sobre para que la camarera lo comprenda. Pero no da resultado. La señora de la pareja tiene la idea de enseñar a la camarera unas cuantas tarjetas postales para que así sea más claro que la pobre chica entienda lo que tan claramente estaban explicando, que querían que la camarera de una barra de sushi les sirviese un sobre de papel.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Así que el pijo coge las tarjetas que le ofrecen los otros pijos, y pone el dinero entre las tarjetas. Sigue repitiendo la palabra envelop. La pobre camarera hubiera tardado menos en matricularse en un curso de español y aprender la palabra sobre que en entender la explicación del pijo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Como la pobre tampoco tuvo la idea de lo del curso de español, el pijo prosiguió con su explicación. Toma una servilleta de papel (amarilla), y envuelve las tarjetas postales, recalcando la palabra envelop. Pero no da resultado, y la chica, que tenía que trabajar, y no estar allí jugando al Pictionary o cómo quiera que se llame el juego ese, se marcha.&lt;br /&gt;Los tres pijos de distintas edades se quedan muy decepcionados, porque no han conseguido el sobre para guardar el bote, y al final ha tenido que guardar los billetes en su billetera, o sobre simulado, donde corría el riesgo de perderlos. Y mientras se retiraba de la barra, comentaba las pija:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-Pues vaya país, ¿es que no usan sobres o qué?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pues sí que los usan, pero los compran en las papelerías o en la oficina de correos, no en una barra se sushi, señora.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/blow-up2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/blow-up2.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; El cocinero simpático y muy bueno de la barra de sushi.&lt;br /&gt;The nice and really good cook at the sushi bar.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/blow-up1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/blow-up1.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; La barra de sushi.  The sushi bar.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/blow-up3.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/blow-up3.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; El sushi.     Sushi.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A group of Spanish tourists walk into a restaurant in Saint Petersburg. It sounds like the beginning of a joke, but it is not. A group of posh Spanish tourists walk into a restaurant in the center of Saint Petersburg. They came in speaking really loud, smoking, laughing hard, as good Spaniards, with their white polo shirts and shorts the guys and shirts with a silk scarf or a sweater over the shoulders the girls. They seat down pushing all the tables together to be very close and show how good friends they are, driving the Russian tour-guide who tries pointlessly to shepherd them, crazy. The head of the group, a thirty-something standard poshy in his polo shirt and shorts, white socks up to his knees and glasses, collects money to pay for the bill. The traditional Spanish “bote”, a damn unfair way of splitting the bill in equal parts between everybody around the table even if some of them did not drink wine nor had dessert. But I digress...  He takes the cash and uses the nearby sushi bar to count it while he chats with a couple seating next to him (fifty-somethings, poshys) He collected five hundred euros, some six hundred and something dollars, he says. Probably enough to pay for the bill. That is, if you exchange them to rubles, butt-munch, the legal currency in this country.&lt;br /&gt;So, totally satisfied with his conversion, he asks the waitress, in English: (Because until now, everybody was speaking Spanish, and hence the point of this tale, of me, a Spaniard living in Saint Petersburg. This may be not so funny now for my English-speaking readers. I trust you will forgive me)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-Have you got a envelope?  With strong posh Spanish accent.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The waitress is astonished. She replies in English too, better than the Spanish poshy, that she does not understand. To be fair, I must say that the poshy Spaniard at least did not follow the typical Spanish tradition of continuing repeating the same thing, but screaming, in the hope that the louder you scream, the easier it will be for the other person, who does not speak your language, to understand what you are saying. He just continued repeating.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The waitress still did not know what an envelope is. He asks again, this time showing her the bank notes in front of her face. She probably thought she had been wrong all these years, and the currency is called envelope and not euro.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The couple of fifty-something poshys ask the thirty-something what he wants. He explains that he wants an envelope to put the money inside, or he will loose it. This was the unfortunate moment in which I also realized what was going on, because the reason why I was unlucky enough to be seating next to them that evening is that we went to the sushi bar to have some maki.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He strikes back with the envelope. The waitress still in awe. Then, his face lights up. He found the solution to make this dumb Russian waitress who cannot speak Spanish, and does not know what an envelope is, understand what he was explaining so clearly for several minutes. He takes out his wallet, and very slowly, puts the money inside, while the waitress looks, and he repeats the word envelope. The waitress is still in awe. The poshy explains to the couple of poshys with incredulity in his voice, that he is trying to reproduce the process of putting the money inside an envelope with his wallet, to make the waitress understand. But it does not work. The posh woman has an idea. She suggests to show the waitress a few postcards so it will be easier for the poor girl to understand what they were explaining so clearly, that they wanted the waitress of a sushi bar to serve them a paper envelope.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So the poshy takes the postcards and puts the money between them, repeating over and over the word envelope. It would have been easier for the poor waitress to take  Spanish course and learn the word sobre than to understand that explanation. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As the poor girl did not think about taking the Spanish lessons, the poshy carried on. He took a paper napkin (yellow) and wrapped the postcards in them, always emphasizing the word envelope. The waitress had other things to do that were not stay there playing Pictionary or whatever that game is called, apologized and left.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The three poshys of different ages were very disappointed because they did not get the envelope to put the money inside, and finally had to put it inside a wallet (or fake envelope), with the big risk of loosing it that comes with it. While the guy was leaving from the bar, the posh woman said:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-What a country. Don’t they use envelopes here, or what?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They do, old lady, but they buy them in stationary shops or in the post office, not in a shushi bar.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19019468-116154857581271324?l=nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/feeds/116154857581271324/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19019468&amp;postID=116154857581271324' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/116154857581271324'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/116154857581271324'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/2006/10/sushi-en-rusia-russian-sushi-un-grupo.html' title=''/><author><name>Miguel Ángel</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01404081363933861079</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19019468.post-116137831930371324</id><published>2006-10-20T22:12:00.000+02:00</published><updated>2006-10-20T23:58:13.206+02:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>Bueno, vamos a darle un descanso a lo de las fotos de la boda, que no me apetece ahora ponerlas. El otro día estuvimos en un club underground total en San Petersburgo, &lt;a href="http://www.zoccolo.ru" target="_blank"&gt;Zoccolo&lt;/a&gt; viendo la actuación de dos grupos. Uno de ellos eran estos pelos de aqui abajo, &lt;a href="http://childrenofthegun.nm.ru" target="_blank"&gt;Children of the Gun&lt;/a&gt;. El escenario era tan pequeño que el bajista tocaba mezclado entre el público (que éramos cuatro, la verdad)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ok, so we will give it a break to that idea of posting more pics of the wedding, and I will go straight to the concert in an underground club in SPB, that we attended the other day: &lt;a href="http://www.zoccolo.ru" target="_blank"&gt;Zoccolo&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One band was &lt;a href="http://childrenofthegun.nm.ru" target="_blank"&gt;Children of the Gun&lt;/a&gt;, these hippies from the pic. The stage was so small that the bass player had to be off the stage playing among the audience! (we were not a big crowd)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/childrenofthegun.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/childrenofthegun.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; El ambiente era muy diferente a lo que esperaba. Primero, no había mucha gente. En España siempre me imagino estos sitios pequeños y underground como un sitio atestado de gente saltando y gritando y más colocados que la colección de Lladró de un obsesivo-compulsivo. Pero la gente que no era mucha, unos 40 en el momento álgido de la actuación del primer grupo, era muy calmada, sólo parecía haber uno fumao, y se estaba muy agusto. Había bastante chicas gotiquillas, pero sólo una con algo de estilo, la verdad (vaya marujón que estoy hecho).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The atmosphere was very different to what I expected. First of all, it was not very crowded. The way I see these places in Spain is like a small dark room filled with smoke and people screaming and jumping. But people was quite cool, not many, about 40 at the peak of the first band's performance, and only one seemed to be high. It was quite nice. There were several goth girls but only one in the pure style (this was the fashion chronicle of the night)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/parabellvm.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/parabellvm.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Y la banda estrella de la velada, &lt;a href="http://www.parabellvm.ru" target="_blank"&gt;Para Bellvm&lt;/a&gt;. Eran como siniestros. Uno de ellos llevaba una camiseta de Darth Maul, y la verdad es que me gustaron bastante y me dio mucha rabia que no fuese más gente. No estaba en un concierto con tan poco público desde uno de los Toreros Muertos en que estuve una vez.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And the stars of the evening, &lt;a href="http://www.parabellvm.ru" target="_blank"&gt;Para Bellvm&lt;/a&gt;. There were like Darkwave, or something. One of them wore a Darth Maul t-shirt and I liked them very much, and felt bad that the crowd was not very big. I had not been to a concert with such little audience since I went to a Toreros Muertos gig some time ago.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19019468-116137831930371324?l=nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/feeds/116137831930371324/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19019468&amp;postID=116137831930371324' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/116137831930371324'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/116137831930371324'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/2006/10/bueno-vamos-darle-un-descanso-lo-de.html' title=''/><author><name>Miguel Ángel</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01404081363933861079</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19019468.post-116026147175858101</id><published>2006-10-08T00:31:00.000+02:00</published><updated>2006-10-08T13:53:38.066+02:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>Ok, this is Gaby´s cleavage, after her approval.&lt;br /&gt;Vale, el canalillo de Gaby tras su aprobación.

It was very nice and some moments were really touching, but I will make a more detailed description of it tomorrow. For now, I will just post a pic of the cocktail and Gaby, my faithful reader and good friend, who is the only person besides Elena who think my long hair suits me. Gaby, can I post the pic of your cleavage?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/Pa060735.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/Pa060735.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19019468-116018034647494559?l=nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/feeds/116018034647494559/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19019468&amp;postID=116018034647494559' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/116018034647494559'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/116018034647494559'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/2006/10/yoli-and-klaus-se-han-casado-yoli-and.html' title=''/><author><name>Miguel Ángel</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01404081363933861079</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19019468.post-115871931592843543</id><published>2006-09-20T04:04:00.000+02:00</published><updated>2006-09-20T04:28:36.073+02:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/Il%20Grande%20Ratzinger.3.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/Il%20Grande%20Ratzinger.3.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/ratzinger-z.3.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/ratzinger-z.3.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I just could not help it...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No he podido evitarlo...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19019468-115871931592843543?l=nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/feeds/115871931592843543/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19019468&amp;postID=115871931592843543' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/115871931592843543'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/115871931592843543'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/2006/09/i-just-could-not-help-it.html' title=''/><author><name>Miguel Ángel</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01404081363933861079</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19019468.post-115865421748015518</id><published>2006-09-19T09:56:00.000+02:00</published><updated>2006-09-19T10:23:37.496+02:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>Lo que se puede llegar a encontrar en las oficinas de una plataforma petrolifera.

Es una ciudad muy grande, asi que solo pongo dos fotos del centro, y resumo lo demas con una (otra) fotografia aerea. La avenida que se ve en la primera foto es Tverskaya, mencionada en innumerables libros. Esta calle desemboca en la plaza Pushkin y si se continua, se llega hasta la Plaza de la Revolucion y desde alli al Kremlin, en la siguiente foto. Si se sigue recto unos 90 minutos, desde alli se llega al aeropuerto Domodedovo, donde se pueden encontrar muchas pantallas con vuelos retrasados 6 horas, como el mio (siento que este en version original, intentad descargar los subtitulos de Emule). Y si el vuelo despega, de noche, se puede ver todo el centro de un solo golpe de vista y te ahorras el atasco, y a lo mejor hasta sacar una foto y todo. Eso si la vieja que esta sentada a tu lado en el avion no va a buscar a la azafata para chivarse de que lo estas haciendo, porque esta prohibido. En serio.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Por cierto, estoy viendo la segunda temporada de Perdidos y es un rollo. (Digo Lost, en Espana deben haberla titulado La Isla Terrible, o Venganza Inminente, o Peligro Insular...)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/tversmall.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/kremlinsmall.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/kremlinsmall.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/delaysmall.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/delaysmall.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/moscownightsmall.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/moscownightsmall.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today a short drive-thru Moscow.

Vaya peaso de foto que pude sacar en pleno atardecer del centro de Moscu desde el avion cuando volaba hacia San Petersburgo. El rio Moscu, cruzando la fografia de izquiera a derecha, y el centro mismo de la ciudad, la Plaza Roja y el Kremlin, a la derecha (?donde si no?, je je). En esta foto, creo, queda muy clara no solo la distribucion de la ciudad, sino el caracter mismo del pais y de la personalidad rusa. El centro de la ciudad, donde se encuentra el gobierno, es perfectamente reconocible, y todas las calles principales parten de alli, o bien son circunvalaciones a su alrededor, al igual que el resto del pais depende total e indefensamente de Moscu. Todo gira a su alrededor cual sistema planetario regido por el pozo gravitatorio de la estrella del Kremlin. Y la respuesta del Kremlin a esta dependencia parece ser :Que os den&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Moscow!!! What an awesome shot I could take that evening of the center of Moscow from the plane flying to Saint Petersburg. The Moscow river, crossing the picture from left to right, and the exact center, the Red Square and the Kremlin to the far right (where else? heh) I think this photo reflects very well not just the distribution of the city, but the whole personality of the country and Russian people. The city center, where the goberment is located, is a perfectly clear sight, and all main streets start there, or circle around it, as well as all the country depends helpless and totally from Moscow. Everything revolves around it like a planetary system revolving around the Kremlin's star gravity well. And the answer of the Kremlin to that seems to be: Screw you all.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19019468-115753828405311384?l=nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/feeds/115753828405311384/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19019468&amp;postID=115753828405311384' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/115753828405311384'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/115753828405311384'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/2006/09/moscu-desde-las-nubes-moscow-from.html' title=''/><author><name>Miguel Ángel</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01404081363933861079</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19019468.post-115745634360652197</id><published>2006-09-05T13:22:00.000+02:00</published><updated>2006-09-05T13:54:37.566+02:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/Strange%20fish.0-01-45.410.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/Strange%20fish.0-01-45.410.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/Strange%20fish.0-00-50.471.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/Strange%20fish.0-00-50.471.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; En la plataforma donde estoy trabajando en el Mar de Ojots (creo que es castellano se escribe asi), hace un tiempo, sacaron unas fotos de un bicho rarisimo que estaba paseando por el fondo alrededor de la boca del pozo, a 120 metros de profundidad. No tenemos ni idea de lo que es, si alguien lo sabe, por favor que me escriba. Las fotos puede que sean muy pequenas. Si es asi, las editare mas adelante. Mi teoria es que se trata de una version mutanet del pez de Los Simpson, son dos ojos pero con tres juegos de patas y que puede caminar. El pez que se ve en el fondo es una especie de atun, aunque no es un atun porque el agua esta demasiado fria para esos bichos. Tengo un video de 20 megas donde se le ve caminar, algun dia lo pondre en Emule si tengo bastantes peticiones al respecto. &lt;p&gt;On the rig on the Ojokts Sea where I am working, some time ago the submarines took a photo of the strangest creature, walking around the wellhead at 120 meters deep. We have no idea of what it is. If somebody knows, please let me know. The pics may be too small, I'll post them and edit later if neccesary. My theory is that it is a mutant version of the Simpson's three eyes fish, with 2 eyes but three sets of legs. There is a tuna-like fish at the background in one pic for reference. I have a 20 Mb video where it is possible to see it walk, I can put it on Emule if I get enough requests.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19019468-115745634360652197?l=nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/feeds/115745634360652197/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19019468&amp;postID=115745634360652197' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/115745634360652197'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/115745634360652197'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/2006/09/en-la-plataforma-donde-estoy.html' title=''/><author><name>Miguel Ángel</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01404081363933861079</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19019468.post-115688997716529861</id><published>2006-08-30T00:08:00.000+02:00</published><updated>2006-08-30T00:19:37.203+02:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'> Para todos mis seguidores fieles que habéis estado visitando el diario en busca de nuevas actualizaciones, hoy tengo una historia genial para compensaros por mi ausencia forzosa. Que no os de pereza leer este texto sin fotos.&lt;br/&gt;Después de salir en barco de la plataforma y de un viaje muy muy largo de por si, y alargado por la ineptitud organizativa rusa, llegamos por fin al aeródromo desde el que teníamos que volar al sur de la isla, y desde allí a Moscú, y a casa. Aunque habíamos llegado con tiempo de sobra para despegar antes de que el aeródromo cerrase (porque aunque el nuestro era el único vuelo, si dicen que cierran, cierran), nos dicen que no tenemos tiempo y que nuestro vuelo se retrasa 4 horas porque tenemos que pasar un ‘control de seguridad especial”. Este control que duró unos 10 minutos escasos, fue un registro a puerta cerrada de nuestro equipaje, y como resultado, los policías de aduanas me llamaron para que fuese a la habitación donde habían registrado las bolsas y me dicen que les enseñe los recibos de los objetos de mi equipaje porque sospechan que son robados. Además, me piden una declaración de aduanas, que por supuesto yo no tenía, porque aunque técnicamente es un papel necesario para entrar en el país, no lo piden nunca (de hecho, cuando lo he rellenado, me lo han roto en la aduana porque están hartos de papeles y no lo necesitan)&lt;br/&gt;Como no pude probar que mis cosas eran mías y no robadas, me dijeron que en Yuzno-Sajalinsk, me estaría esperando la policía, y así fue. Nada más poner un pie fuera del avión, la policía me llevó a una habitación subterránea del aeropuerto (en serio) y comenzaron a registrarme, y a vaciar mi equipaje, sacando fotos de todo. Incluso fueron a buscar testigos para que fuese todo “legal” (los testigos no eran de Jehová, eran policías). Claro, a estas alturas yo ya me estaba preguntando si lo que iban a pedir eran 100 ó 200 dólares para darse cuenta de que esas cosas eran mías. &lt;br/&gt;Lo más gracioso de todo vino cuando me vieron que llevaba unas cuantas medallas soviéticas que había comprado. Empezaron a acusarme de que las había robado de un museo, porque está prohibido vender estas medallas en Rusia. En otras circunstancias me hubiera meado de risa, pero yo lo que quería era darles los 100 dólares e irme a mi casa. Pero no, que mis cosas son robadas, y me abren una ficha policial. Claro, al ser Rusia, esto se hace en papel, con un boli, y por triplicado, pero al estilo castigo del colegio, es decir, copiando todo tres veces, o sea que se tarda un huevo. Me preguntaron hasta los estudios cursados en la universidad, y lo anotaron todo, incluyendo dirección falsa en Madrid. En un momento de confusión, mencioné que mi novia era rusa, y que por eso estoy viviendo en San Petersburgo, y claro, me preguntaron su nombre, nombre de sus padres y su dirección. Después de mandarlos a t*** *** **** y a que *** *** *** y se*** *** la *** y **** ***** ***** *** ***** **** en español, les di nombres y direcciones falsos, por supuesto. En fin, que al final de todo, unas tres horas después, me puedo ir, pero no puedo abandonar la isla en al menos tres días, cuando decidirán si “todo está bien”o si tengo que quedarme un mes a esperar juicio, y que es muy probable que tenga una pena de hasta 3 meses de cárcel...&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;-Y, ¿qué significa que todo está bien?&lt;br/&gt;-Pues que todo ha ido bien y te puedes marchar.&lt;br/&gt;-Sí, pero, exactamente, ¿qué es “todo está bien”?&lt;br/&gt;-Pues que todo ha ido bien y te puedes marchar.&lt;br/&gt;-Ya, no, si eso lo entiendo, pero... ¿qué es “estar bien? ¿que no he robado las medallas del museo?&lt;br/&gt;-Pues que todo ha ido bien y te puedes marchar.&lt;br/&gt;-Vale, que os den.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Aproximadamente 0.3 segundos después de abandonar la habitación subterránea ya estaba llamando al consulado español en Moscú con mi teléfono robado. Allí me dicen que aunque técnicamente necesito los papeles, que no me preocupe que no me van a hacer nada, que lo más probable es que quieran un soborno, aunque era raro que no me lo hubieran pedido aún, y que espere un poco a ver qué averiguan.&lt;br/&gt;Así que allí que me tengo que quedar unos días.&lt;br/&gt;Para no enrollarme, resumo.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Mi empresa me recomienda que visite a un abogado.  Lo hago. Me dice que esto tiene muy mala pinta y que puedo ir a la cárcel. Le digo que en el consulado me han dicho que no, y que esto tiene pinta de que quieran pasta. Me dice que él también lo cree, pero que si no la han pedido aún, puede que quieran llevarme a juicio por algún otro motivo. Me dice que él no se puede ocupar de mi caso porque no, y que mejor vaya a un abogado muy bueno en casos criminales como el mío. Voy a verlo, con una intérprete, porque el otro abogado es tan inepto que no habla español. Le revelo mi rollo. Me dice que si no me pidieron dinero. Le digo que no. Me dice que le extraña. Que tiene muy mala pinta. Consulta un libro muy grueso de ley rusa (creo) (en la portada ponía Código Penal (en ruso)). Me dice que la pena en mi caso son tres meses de cárcel y al menos un par de meses de espera antes del juicio. Que además voy a tener una ficha criminal en Rusia y que no me van a volver a dar un visado de entrada al país en la vida. Le digo que en el consulado me han dicho algo diferente. Me dice que qué sabrán ellos. Le digo que creo que saben bastante. Sonríe. Hace una llamada de teléfono. Me mira sonriente. Le dice a la intérprete que tenemos que hablar del precio de sus servicios, y que nos deje solos. Yo pienso, “será costumbre rusa no discutir el precio delante de extraños”. Me dibuja un tres en un papel. Le miro con cara de “qué me estás contando”. Me dibuja un signo de dólar al lado del tres. Le pregunto en un ruso excelente “ ¿tres dólares? ¿por hora?” Me mira. Me dice “Horoshaya pagoda, ni pravda li? Mnie ocen nravitsa blini c ikra”. ¿Lo habéis entendido? Yo tampoco. Me dibuja tres ceros al lado del tres, lo que lo convierte en 3000$. Me escandalizo.  Me vuelve a contar su vida en ruso. Así que llamo a la intérprete. Me dice que el precio  son 3000 dólares. Hasta ahí ya llegaba yo solo. Le pregunto que por qué. Me dice que hay otros abogados más baratos pero que él es el único que puede hacer que mi ficha desaparezca, y que no haya juicio y que me pueda marchar al día siguiente. Le pregunto por qué. La intérprete le pregunta. Él responde. La interprete me dice que es porque él tiene muy buena relación con la capitana de policía que me detuvo así como con sus superiores. Entonces lo entiendo todo. Le digo que no tengo 3000$. Me pregunta que cuánto tengo. Le digo que no tengo nada. Me dice que se puede pagar a plazos (en serio). Le digo que me encuentro bajo protección consular y que no voy a pagarles nada. Me marcho.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Llamo al consulado. Se lo cuento todo. Se cabrean. Me dicen que espere un poco que van  hablar con el ministerio del interior. Me resigno a quedarme en la mierda de isla esa hasta que sea el juicio. A las dos horas me llaman para decirme que todo está arreglado, que me puedo marchar al día siguiente previa visita a la policía para arreglar papeles. Hablo otra vez con el consulado. Me dicen que es un intento de extorsión más grave de lo habitual, y que no debo ser el primero al que se lo hacen, y que por eso ese abogado es tan bueno con casos criminales. &lt;br/&gt;Al día siguiente, antes de marcharme, visito a la policía que me detuvo. Me dice que si averiguan que había robado esas cosillas, que me hacen volver a juicio. Y que no era necesario llamar al consulado por algo tan poca cosa, que ha tenido un dolor de cabeza muy grande de tanto dar explicaciones por teléfono de lo que pasaba. Lo que hay que oír. Claro, hubiera sido más fácil que le pagase los 3000 dólares a repartir. &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Moraleja. &lt;br/&gt;Cuando viajéis, llevad a mano el teléfono del consulado más próximo. &lt;br/&gt;“Todo está bien” significa “nos pagas la extorsión”&lt;br/&gt;Se quedaron con mis medallas.&lt;br/&gt;El abogado de mi empresa también es corrupto.&lt;br/&gt;En Rusia no existe el papel autocopiativo.&lt;br/&gt;Ya he tenido problemas con la policía en 4 países, aunque sólo he estado en la cárcel en uno.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Y gracias desde aquí al Cónsul y al resto del personal del consulado, hasta a la señora de la limpieza.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;For all my faithful readers, I have today the last story from Russia, that kept me from updating the blog for a while, and that I hope will make it up to you for the long period of silence. Please, don’t be lazy to read this long text with no pictures.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;After the long trip out of the rig, by boat, we arrived to Okha aerodrome, to take a 2 hour flight to the South of Sakhalin and then to Moscow. There we were detained by the customs police and our flight delayed for 3 hours because they needed to perform a “special check” of our luggage, behind a locked door. The result was that I was called up to open my luggage and it was decided that some of my personal electronic items were stolen, as I did not have a customs declaration for  them, something actually not needed.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;So after we landed in Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk, the police was waiting for me and took me in to an underground room in the airport were they started questioning me and emptying my luggage taking photos of everything, with the presence of two “witnesses”… policemen as well. I kept telling them “You can take me, but you cannot take my bunghole. For I have no bunghole. I am the Great Cornholio” But it did not work. Of course by that time I knew, or assumed, that they wanted one or two hundred dollars in bribe to let me go. They were also lucky enough to find among some souvenirs I had bought, a bunch of Soviet Union medals, and they added to my list of charges that, since it is not allowed to sell them in Russia, I had stolen them from a museum. Seriously. &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;So, they opened a police record because I had committed a criminal offense by trying to get out of the country with stolen items, including military medals. That is when I told them I was not leaving the country, as I live in Saint Petersburg with my girlfriend. So, in addition to asking me all my personal details including ALL information related to my company and my education, university, degrees, hobbies (seriously), they asked me about her too!! I told them, of course, that I was not going to tell them anything about her, and hey told me I was in deep enough shit and I better cooperate. So I told them in Spanish to which place they could f***** go, and where to stick the medals in, and how deep and also to ** ***** **** **** *** ****** *** and to ****** ** **  ***** ******. After that I gave them all the (fake) information they wanted.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;So they made this police record for me, but I will not leave this up to your imagination. In Russia there are no computers, nor typing machines, it is all done by hand and by triplicate. So this took very long. They showed me lots of books written in Russian which they used to explain me that the punishment for my criminal offense was three months in jail. They told me I could not leave the city in three days, when they will decide if everything was all right, or I would have to stay three weeks waiting for trial. Of course that sucked, and they had not asked me for any bribe, which worried me. &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;I asked:&lt;br/&gt;-What does it mean that “everything is ok?&lt;br/&gt; -It means that it is all ok and you can go home.&lt;br/&gt;-Yeah, I get that. But what does it exactly mean everything is ok?&lt;br/&gt;- It means that it is all ok and you can go home.&lt;br/&gt;-Yes, I get it. But the “everything is ok” part, does it mean that I did not steal the medlas form a museum?&lt;br/&gt;-It means that it is all ok and you can go home.&lt;br/&gt;-Ok, screw you,&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;So, 0,3 seconds after I left the dungeon, I was calling form my stolen mobile phone to the Spanish consulate in Moscow. They told me that technically I need that customs declaration for some items, but that it really is not needed and that this is just to get some money from me. They told me to be patient, that I was under their protection, that I would not go to jail, nor trial, and that it was strange they did no ask me for money. They told me to wait a little and see what happened.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;To make a very looong story short, I sum up:&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;My company recommends to get a lawyer. I do. He tells me this looks very bad and I may go to jail. I tell him in the consulate they told me something different and this looks like they just want money. He says he also thinks so, but as they have not asked for it yet, they may want to take me to trial for other reasons. He tells me he cannot take my case but he knows a very good lawyer, expert in criminal cases like mine. I go see him, with an interpreter because he is so useless he cannot speak Spanish. I tell him my story. He asks me if they asked me for money. I say no. He says that is strange. He says this looks bad. He checks a very thick book of Russian law (I think) (on the cover was written “Russian Law”(in Russian)) He tells me that the punishment for my offense is three months in jail and at least two months in the island waiting for trial. I will also have a criminal record in Russia and will never get an entry visa to the country again. I tell him in the consulate they told me something different. He says they don’t know anything. I tell him that I think they know pretty much. He smiles. He makes a phonecall. Looks at me smiling. Tells the interpreter that we need to discuss the price alone. She leaves. I think “maybe it is not customary in Russia to discuss prices in front strangers” He draws a three on a piece of paper. I look at him like saying “what are yo on about?” He draws a dollar sign next to it. I ask in an excellent Russian “Three dollars? Per hour?” He looks back at me. Says :”    Horoshaya pagoda, ni pravda li? Mnie ocen nravitsa blini c ikra” Did you understand? Me neither. He draws three zeroes next to the three, which beocmes it 3000 $. I get in shock. He tells me his life in Russian. I call the intepreter. She tells me the price are 3000 $. I had figured that out myself already.  I ask why. He says there are other lawyers in town, but they cannot make my police record disappear, that there is no trial and that I can go home the next day. I ask why. The interpreter asks him. He replies. The interpreter tells me that he is in very good relation with the police captain who detained me and with her superior officers. Now I get it. I tell him I don’t have 3000$. He asks me how much I have. I say I have nothing. He tells me I can pay in several installments. Seriously. I tell him I am under consular protection and I will not pay a thing. I leave. &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;I call the consulate. I tell them everything. They get mad. They tell me that they will talk to the ministry of the interior. I accept the fact that I may have to stay in that hellhole of an island for a long time. Two hours later I get a call saying everything is fixed and I can leave the island the next day. I just need to go to the police first for 5 minutes. In the consulate they tell me this is a scam much worse than usual, and that I must not be the first one to suffer it on the island, and also that now we know why that lawyer who is so good in criminal cases.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Next day I visit the police woman who took me in. They tell me if they find out my things or the medals are stolen, I will have to go back for trial. Yeah, right. She also said it was not necessary to call the consulate for such a small thing, that she got a headache from answering to phone calls and explaining about “my case” The things one has to hear. Of course, it would have been easier  to pay the 3000 dollars to split.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Lessons learnt:&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;When you travel, take with you your country’s consulate’s number, just in case.&lt;br/&gt;“Everything is ok” means “you pay us”&lt;br/&gt;They kept my medals.&lt;br/&gt;My company’s lawyer is also corrupt.&lt;br/&gt;In Russia there is not self-copying paper&lt;br/&gt;I have had problems with the police in four contries already, but only been to jail in one. &lt;br/&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19019468-115688997716529861?l=nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/feeds/115688997716529861/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19019468&amp;postID=115688997716529861' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/115688997716529861'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/115688997716529861'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/2006/08/para-todos-mis-seguidores-fieles-que.html' title=''/><author><name>Miguel Ángel</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01404081363933861079</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19019468.post-115463850738283215</id><published>2006-08-03T22:39:00.000+02:00</published><updated>2006-08-03T22:55:07.436+02:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/P8030303small.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/P8030303small.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/P8030302small.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/P8030302small.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; We may not have water, but there is no shortage of fish heads&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Puede que agua no tengamos, pero cabezas de pescado, las que queramos.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19019468-115463850738283215?l=nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/feeds/115463850738283215/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19019468&amp;postID=115463850738283215' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/115463850738283215'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/115463850738283215'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/2006/08/we-may-not-have-water-but-there-is-no.html' title=''/><author><name>Miguel Ángel</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01404081363933861079</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19019468.post-115457456843937280</id><published>2006-08-03T04:04:00.000+02:00</published><updated>2006-08-03T05:29:42.220+02:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/bbbb%20039sm.2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/400/bbbb%20039sm.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just so you get the picture...

Hace tres dias que no tenemos agua potable. Las botellas de agua mineral se terminaron, y solo queda algo de zumo, y Coca Cola y Sprite. Uno de los barcos de aprovisionamiento trajo un contenedor con botellas, pero el oficial de aduanas de abordo no permitio que lo subiesen a la plataforma porque no tenia los papeles adecuados. Se refiere a los papeles de 100 dolares. Y el contenedor se lo llevaron de vuelta a tierra. Y nos dicen que hasta que no este claro el contenido de ese contenedor, no se permite que ese, u otros de identico contenido, o sea, agua potable, sean transportados abordo. Y claro, los papeles necesarios para que esto ocurra, BP, la petrolera a cargo de la operacion, se niega a ponerlos en los bolsillos adecuados... pero, ?por que yo mismo no llamo a las cosas por su nombre?&lt;br /&gt;LAS AUTORIDADES RUSAS NO PERMITEN QUE NOS TRAIGAN AGUA SIN UN SOBORNO.&lt;br /&gt;LA PETROLERA BRITANICA BP PREFIERE QUE NO TENGAMOS AGUA A PAGAR.&lt;br /&gt;?Quien es peor de los dos?&lt;br /&gt;La plataforma tiene desalinizadores de agua, y se realizan controles cada dia para comprobar la potabilidad. Nadie se atreve a beberla despues del caso de contaminacion por Escherichia Coli que hubo hace unos meses tras beber esta agua. Y de todas formas, el agua alrededor de la plataforma tiene demasiado plancton para que los filtros lo limpien, y se han atascado. Un barco se ha alejado 100 millas para intentar limpiar agua con sus filtros... habra suerte?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TODAY'S POST HAS NO PICS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As we don't have drinking water on the rig. It has been three days already with no water. The bottled water ran out, and we just have some juice, Sprite and lots of Coke. One of the supply barges brought a container full of water, but the onboard customs officer did not allow it on board, as it has not the proper paperwork. He meant the right 100 dollar paperwork. And so the container was carried back to shore. And we have been told until the content of the container is not clear to the customs, neither that container, nor any other of similar contents will be allowed onboard. And of course, BP, the oil company operator for the rig will not put the proper paperwork in the right pockets... but why not call things by its own name?&lt;br /&gt;RUSSIAN CUSTOMS WILL NOT ALLOW WATER ON THE RIG WITHOUT A BRIBE.&lt;br /&gt;THE BRITISH COMPANY BP WON’T PAY IT AND RATHER LET US WITHOUT WATER.&lt;br /&gt;Which one of them is worse? The rig has de-salinizer plants, and controls are made daily to check if it is drinkable... but nobody drinks it after the case of E. Coli registered a few months ago after drinking that water. Besides, the filters have blocked as the water around the rig is too heavy with plancton. So a boat will travel 100 miles south to try and clean some water for us... what will it be?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19019468-115456708213975397?l=nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/feeds/115456708213975397/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19019468&amp;postID=115456708213975397' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/115456708213975397'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/115456708213975397'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/2006/08/la-entrada-de-hoy-no-tiene-fotos.html' title=''/><author><name>Miguel Ángel</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01404081363933861079</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19019468.post-115424079235815366</id><published>2006-07-30T08:12:00.000+02:00</published><updated>2006-07-30T08:26:32.370+02:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/mine1.2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/mine1.2.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; A little composite portrait of Elena and me courtesy of Elena.&lt;br /&gt;Un retrato de Elena y de mi montado por Elena.

Me gustaria presentaros a alguien. Es mi novia, Elena. Es la persona con la que quiero estar el resto de mi vida, porque nunca he sido tan feliz con nadie. Nunca me he sentido tan bien , y me gustaria que lo supiera todo el mundo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;En estas fotos solo podeis ver lo guapa que es y nada mas, pero cuando podamos conseguir viajar juntos a Espana podreis entender por que soy tan feliz por estar con ella. Elena es rusa, y vive en Rusia , y donde yo estoy viviendo ahora tambien para poder estar con ella.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today I would like to introduce to you somebody. My girlfriend, Elena. She is the person with whom I would like to stay for the rest of my life beacuse I have never been so happy with anyone before. She is Russian, she is in Russia now, where I am staying too so we can be together.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have never felt so good and happy and I want everybody to know.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In these photos you can only see how beautiful she is, but when we can travel to Spain together you will undestand why I am so happy with her.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/mine12.0.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Esta fotografia es del pasado fin de 2005 en Helsinki. Tengo muy pocas fotos de Elena, pero esta es mi favorita. Esta guapisima, y el tranvia le da un ambiente de pelicula francesa de los 50 total.&lt;br /&gt;This is a picture of the past 2005 New Year Eve in Helsinki. I have very few photos of Elena, but this is my favourite one. She is very beautiful and the tram gives it a very French 50's film kind of look.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/mine3.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/mine3.0.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Y esta fotografia es de nuestra visita relampago a Madrid. Se que nadie tuvo la oportunidad de conocerla, espero que nos perdoneis, pero fueron unos momentos robados a la realidad de los visados y los papeles. Sentada debajo de palmeras, su planta favorita.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And this photo is of our quick visit to Madrid. I know nobody had the chance to meet her in person, and I hope you will forgive us, but those weer some moments stolen of the reality of visas and paperwork. She is seating under palms, her favourite plant.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19019468-115387519287547320?l=nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/feeds/115387519287547320/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19019468&amp;postID=115387519287547320' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/115387519287547320'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/115387519287547320'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/2006/07/hola-todos.html' title=''/><author><name>Miguel Ángel</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01404081363933861079</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19019468.post-115386651261448186</id><published>2006-07-25T23:50:00.000+02:00</published><updated>2006-07-26T00:28:32.846+02:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/P7250278small.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block;

Very soon you will know about them as they started singing in English. I foresee they will be more famous than T.aT.u. They have five albums already, and recently signed a contract with Sony for 5 more. My top 5 songs are Bomba, Stop Stop Stop, Biologia, Popitka n5 and Ne ostavlyay menya lyubimiy.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Estas son las chicas de Via Gra, mi grupo ukraniano favorito. Muy pronto las veremos por toda Europa, ya que han empezado a cantar en ingles. Preveo que se van a hacer mas famosas que T.a.T.u. Ya tienen cinco albumes publicados y han firmado un contrato con Sony por cinco mas.

But I promise to post some photos of good meals I had before coming to the rig to make it up to all of you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/P7150155.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/P7150155.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19019468-115297386790537846?l=nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/feeds/115297386790537846/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19019468&amp;postID=115297386790537846' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/115297386790537846'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/115297386790537846'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/2006/07/las-cabezas-de-pescado-contraatacan.html' title=''/><author><name>Miguel Ángel</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01404081363933861079</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19019468.post-115296572330333241</id><published>2006-07-15T13:59:00.001+02:00</published><updated>2006-07-15T14:15:23.316+02:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>Ha vuelto a pasar un tiempo desde que hiciera una entrada.

We found him/her on the street, and was not moving or anything. Looked very dissoriented and small, and could not even fly. After some photo shooting, tried to fly away but could not and flew straight into a passing car. Our hearts stopped for more than one beat, after we saw he/she was still alive, and I could not stand it anymore and took it in my hands (with no struggle) and adopted him/her until is big enough to fly. I think it will not take very long. We put him inside a very nice cardboard box with bread soaking in milk, walnuts and dry bread, but still is very scared. Of course, he/she scaped and hopped around the room for a while, but I managed to bring him/her back into the box. I will keep everybody informed of the bird condition. For the moment just seats on the box and looks up. I know he/she would prefer to be free, but cats or cars or little nice children would kill him/her, and will be safer here.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mirad a nuestro nuev@ amig@. L@ encontramos en la calle. Era muy pequeñit@ y ni se movía ni nada. Parecía desorientad@ y no podía volar. Después de unas cuantas fotos, intentó revolotear y marcharse, y se fue direct@ contra un coche que pasaba. Nuestros corazones se pararon más de un latido, pero cuando vimos que estaba bien, que se había quedado entre las ruedas, corrí a cogerlo, y sin resistirse, se vino para casa. Nos l@ vamos a quedar hasta que sea lo bastante grande para volar y defenderse sol@, que creo que será en unos días nada más. Por el momento vive en una caja de cartón con pan y leche, nuecs y pan seco. Está muy asustado, y no deja de mirar hacia arriba, sin moverse. Por supuesto, una vez se escapó y revoloteó por la habitación, pero conseguí cogerl@ y devolverl@ a la caja. Os mantendré informad@s de su estado. ¿A que es mono?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/pajarito.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/pajarito.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19019468-115040384522795090?l=nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/feeds/115040384522795090/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19019468&amp;postID=115040384522795090' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/115040384522795090'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/115040384522795090'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/2006/06/look-at-our-new-friend.html' title=''/><author><name>Miguel Ángel</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01404081363933861079</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19019468.post-115032167459992269</id><published>2006-06-14T23:27:00.000+02:00</published><updated>2006-06-14T23:56:54.266+02:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;HALLIBURTON TRIES TO TAKE OVER GEOSERVICES!!!!!!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;¡HALLIBURTON INTENTA HACERSE CON EL CONTROL DE GEOSERVICES!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;Two of the world's most hated corporation members tried to commandeer the Geoservices unit on the Exxon Job.

Not all, of course, only the ones I think may have a relevance to my life. I have the "Good meals"folder, and the "Dissapointing meals"forlder. And after an idea of my friend Brent Anderson, I am uploading here a special "Pathetic meals"post, with a selection of the worst meals I had on the gulag. And beleive me, it was hard to find the top 10 of worst meals.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Siguiendo una idea de Stan Sakai, hace un tiempo empecé a sacar fotos de mis comidas más señaladas, por el motivoque fuera, bueno o malo. Tengo dos colecciones, las comidas buenas, y las comidas decepcionantes. Y en honor a mi amigo Brent Anderson, he decidido poner en mi diario una colección de comidas del gulag llamada "Comidas Patéticas". Ha sido muy difícil realizar este "top 10", pero aquí va. (Tan difícil que son 12)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Top 12&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sopa de maiz, patatas fritas y pelemeni sin salsa. De postre pera.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Corn soup, chips and pelmeni without any sauce.

Pan y zumo. Sin postre ni ketchup. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Noddle and chicken soup, disgusting rice, mushroom and carrot salad, dry fish and mashed potatos.  Bread, juice. No dessert nor ketchup.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/P5196693.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/P5196693.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Top 10&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sopa de zanahoria. Grasa de cerdo con 2 milimetros de carne, puré de patata y zumo. Manzana de postre. Hoy sí había ketchup.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Carrot soup. Pork lard with 2 mm of meat on it, mash and juice. Apple for dessert. Today we got ketchup.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/P5206697.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/P5206697.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Top 9&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Patatas fritas con pelemeni in salsa. Zumo de naranja. Sin pan, postre o sopa. Ni ketchup. Lo del ketchup lo digo porque me gusta que la comida tenga sabor, y al menos con ketchup lo tiene, aunque sea malo. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Chips with pelemeni without any sauce. Orange juice. No bread, dessert or juice. No ketchup either.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/P5166650.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/P5166650.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Top 8&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sopa de patata.

Pan y zumo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/P5116561.1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/P5116561.1.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Top 5&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Ensalda de arroz y maiz. Sopa de repollo. Patatas hervidas y ... algo. Creo que era como un estofado de vaca, pero no estoy seguro. Creo que no me lo pude comer.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/P5076445.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/P5076445.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Top 4&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sopa de maiz.

Sopa de algo que era imposible saber qué. Patatas sin sabor (creo que asadas) Filete de suelas de zapato de ternera. Pan, zumo y pera. No os perdáis el detalle de la salsa que pusieron aquel día. Todo un lujazo.

Specially my favorite, sushi!! So this is the great meal we enjoyed the other evening in one of our favorite places in Saint Petersburg, Sakura. It was a surprise to find out that the cook was Russian, by the way. We got one extra piece of California Roru, which was cool We also devoured sushi, maki and the prawn gyoza (pelmeni c krivietki) you can see bellow.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Una de las cosas que más desesperadamente necesitaba tras mi estancia en el gulag era comida de la buena, y sobre todo mi favorita, sushi, con el que llevaba soñando varias semanas. Así que me complace exponer aquí las fotos de la gran cena que pudimos disfrutar la otra noche (blanca noche de San Petersburgo, donde ya no oscurece). Fue en uno de nuestros restaurantes favoritos, Sakura. Fue toda una sorpresa encontrarnos que el cocinero era ruso, pero bastante bueno, por cierto. Pedimos rollos de California, sushi, maki y gyoza de gambas, o pelmeni c krivietki, como lo llaman por aquí. Todo muy rico,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/sushi1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/sushi1.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/sushi2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/sushi2.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19019468-115002282170643579?l=nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/feeds/115002282170643579/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19019468&amp;postID=115002282170643579' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/115002282170643579'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/115002282170643579'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/2006/06/one-of-things-i-was-in-dire-need-after.html' title=''/><author><name>Miguel Ángel</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01404081363933861079</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19019468.post-114988994372562238</id><published>2006-06-09T23:10:00.000+02:00</published><updated>2006-06-09T23:52:23.793+02:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/main_top-sm.2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/main_top-sm.2.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; LORDI KICKS ASS!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;!!LORDI MOLA QUE TE CAGAS!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One of the worst things of being on the gulag was that... I missed the Eurovision Song Contest. Hell. It is one of the most expected moments of the year for me, and for the first time in a long time I could not see it. I missed how LORDI, the Finnnish metal band rocked Europe wih their song Hard Rock Halelluyah. And it is a great song, much better than the crap that Spain usually presents. It is not surprising that we always get "nil point"from Le Rouyeme Uni. Of course, I am sure we got the 10 points from Portugal, as usual, what a consolation.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Una de las cosas que más apestaron de estar en el gulag fue que me perdí el Festival de Eurovisión. Mierda. Uno de mis momentos más esperados del año, y por primera vez en mucho tiempo me lo pierdo. Si hasta vi el Europe's Living a Celebration desde una plataforma en Dinamarca. Y voy y me pierdo como la banda de Heavy Metal Finesa le da caña a Europa con su canción Hard Rock Halelluyah. Y es una canción genial, mucho mejor que las mierdas que España suele enviar. No me sorprende que Le Roayeme Uni siempre nos de Nil Points. Pero claro, qué consuelo, seguro que Portugal nos dio los diez puntos.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Here we can see Lordi in action. If Julio Iglesias would see this he would revolve in his grave.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="right"&gt;Aquí tenemos a Lordi en acción.

Weather was never really good, even by the end of May. I only remember one or two days with no snow at all in month there, and cold wind and sudden weather changes were very common.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Esta fue una noche de niebla en el campamento. El tiempo no llegó a ser realmente bueno en ningún momento, incluso hacia finales de mayo. Apenas recuerdo un par de días sin nieve en todo el mes que pasé allí. El viento frío y los cambios de tiempo repentinos eran la tónica habitual.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/1.1.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This was the recreation area, inside one of those big white carps you could see in some of my previous posts. Quite large. It was really hard for me to find time to go being on nightshift, but I managed to go a couple of times. And boy I regret it!! So many sweaty guys there, who probably did not have one single shower in all their stay on the rig, made the air more than thick. And of course, to go in, you had to show your card, sign, write down all your personal information… and I still don´t understand why.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Esta era una de las zonas de recreo, dentro de una de esas carpas blancas que se podían ver en las fotos de alguna entrada anterior. Eran bastante grandes, y bien equipadas, pero me era muy difícil encontrar tiempo para ir estando en turno de noche como estaba. Aún así fui un par de veces para verlas, y me arrepentí bastante. Había demasiados tipos sudorosos que seguramente no se habían duchado en todo el tiempo que llevaban en el campamento, y el aire era algo más que denso. Por supuesto,  para entrar a realizar actividades como jugar al billar o al badminton, había que enseñar la identificación y registrar todos los datos personales, y sigo sin entender por qué.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/2.1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/2.1.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; This was a Blade Runner-like sunrise.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Un amanecer estilo Blade Runner.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/P5126590.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/P5126590.0.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let´s try to find the pizza in this dinner.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Intentad encontrar la pizza en esta cena.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/P5116561.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/P5116561.0.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19019468-114988681124141788?l=nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/feeds/114988681124141788/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19019468&amp;postID=114988681124141788' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/114988681124141788'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/114988681124141788'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/2006/06/one-foggy-night-on-camp.html' title=''/><author><name>Miguel Ángel</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01404081363933861079</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19019468.post-114946212974042191</id><published>2006-06-04T13:07:00.001+02:00</published><updated>2006-06-05T01:51:05.623+02:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>These posters were made after a man got killed when he was run over by a Caterpillar.

It is a safety-at-work system in which anyone who spots a potentially dangerous situation has the right and the obligation to stop any task until it is performed safely. The same rule applies to unsafe behavior or any other thing that can be imagined. The person then is supposed to fill a “Stop Card”and to submit it to the rig’s management, who will study it and decide what to do to sort out the situation, or just to forget about it. Very often, the service companies like mine are ignored when it comes the time to give safety awards for a good participation in the system or for a long period of time with no accidents on the rig. However, Exxon took very seriously the STOP system and each week they awarded several prizes to the best STOP card, the best participation, the best environmental card… So in the three countable weeks that I spent there I was awarded 6 of those prizes!!! It was the first time that my picture is hang in the “Wall of Fame”. I almost felt like a McDonnalds employee of the month. Here I am with Exxon’s company man Glenn Durak handing me two of the awards. I also got three orders for my collection, “Order of the STOP” First, second and third award. These awards are countable for the Mudlogging Champion's Race and for the Fantasy Logging League.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/IMGP0129.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/IMGP0129.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/IMGP0130.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/IMGP0130.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Para todos los que trabajan en el mundo del petroleo les será familiar el sistema STOP. Es un sistema de prevención de riesgos laborales que consiste en que cualquiera que vea una situación insegura o potencialmente peligrosa, sea del tipo que sea, con personas, maquinaria, herramientas, planificación... tiene derecho y obligación de detener el trabajo hasta que sea seguro continuar. Además, se rellenan unas tarjetas llamadas "Stop Cards"y el informe se envía a los directores de las plataformas que las estudian. Normalmente se reparten premios cada semana o mes a las mejores tarjetas o a las mejores participaciones en el sistema STOP, aunque las empresas de servicios como la mia suelen ser ignoradas en el reparto de premios. Exxon no lo hacía así, y cada semana entregaba varios premios, a la mejor participación, a la mejor tarjeta, al mejor trabajo de protección ambiental, y alguna que otra más. En las tres semanas completas que pasé allí, gané seis de esos premios y pusieron mi foto seis veces en la "Pared de la Fama"cual empleado del mes de un McDonnalds. Admás, me fueron concedidas tres Órden del STOP".&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Los puntos conseguidos con esos premios son contabilizables para el Master Series de Geología y para la Liga de Fantasía de Mudlogging.&lt;br /&gt;Me entrega lo premios Glenn Durak, representante de Exxon y antiguo soldado de artillería del ejército de los Estados Juntitos.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19019468-114946486406059841?l=nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/feeds/114946486406059841/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19019468&amp;postID=114946486406059841' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/114946486406059841'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/114946486406059841'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/2006/06/if-you-work-on-offshore-world-you-know.html' title=''/><author><name>Miguel Ángel</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01404081363933861079</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19019468.post-114941879828210790</id><published>2006-06-03T12:13:00.001+02:00</published><updated>2006-06-04T13:10:52.266+02:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>You have all seen my unit from the inside before. Just to get you another look of it, here goes this photo of how my workspace looks like. Just a typical office, but inside a container in the middle of nowhere. As we were drilling and I had to be monitoring the well all the time, I had not time to go for dinner, so they used to bring some take away dinners at midnight. I normaly hate working on nightshift, but on Sakhalin it allows me to avoid jet lag.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ya habéis visto en varias ocasiones el interior de mi unidad. Para que veáis que da igual el sitio del mundo donde trabaje, son todas iguales, aquí va otra foto. No es más que una oficina común y corriente dentro de un contenedor. Como estábamos perforando y tenía que monitorizar el pozo, no tenía tiempo de ir a cenar, y me traían una comida a la unidad. Normalmente odio trabajar en turno de noche, pero en Sajalín no me importa, porque con las 9 horas de diferencia con Europa, me permite tener un horario normal.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/P5076446.0.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Una fotito del chiringuito por la noche, en los primeros días. Aún había bastante nieve, que era mucho mejor que el barro que se formó después al derretirse.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A little pic of that joint at night. Still pretty much snow left, which was much better than the mud that came afterwards when it melted.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/P5056402.0.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/P5046395.0.jpg" border="0" /&gt; And that day's dinner.

There were lots of girls there, all Russian, local, hired as catering staff. Of course they were paying them some of the lowest salaries I have ever seen, almost Russian minimum wages for 6 weeks on and 4 weeks off. They were under the constant threath of losing their jobs if somebody complained about them. But they had no choice, as there are no other jobs in the island.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, the only good thing I can say about the camp, it is not that there were lots of girls, of course, you dirty minded. What I mean is that they had not forbidden to mingle or even to talk with other people, like usually on rigs. Many of them had boyfriends, either from the camp, or from home, who also got jobs in the camp and managed to have the same schedule than them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And the ones with no boyfriends, at least had lots of admirers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/Mess%20Room??s"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/Mess%20Room%3F%3Fs%20crew%2004.1.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/Mess%20Room"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/Mess%20Room%27s%20crew.1.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/Mess%20Room??s"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/Mess%20Room%3F%3Fs%20crew%2003.1.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Sólo había una cosa buena en este campamento. Había montones de chicas rusas contratadas de las ciudades cercanas (bueno, decir ciudades es ser bastante optimista), para las cocinas, o para labores de limpieza. Les pagaban una auténtica mierda, les hacían trabajar 6 semanas y librar 4 semanas, y les pagan casi el salario mínimo ruso, lo que es muy injusto. Las tienen bajo la amenaza constante del despido si alguien se queja del servicio, y es muy injusto, porque por trbajr en semejante vertedero se merecen mucho más.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pero lo que decía, lo único bueno de ese sitio, no es que hubiera muchas chicas, pervertidillos, sino que al menos no les prohiben que se mezclen, o incluso que hablen, con el resto del personal del campamento, como suele suceder en las plataformas. Así que muchas tenían novio, o bien del campamento, o bien el que se traían puesto de casa, si había conseguido trabajo allí al mismo tiempo que ellas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Y las que no tenían novio, tenían muchos admiradores, como habéis podido ver en las fotos precedentes. Aunque la resolución no es muy grande, intentad ver el trozo de lechuga que tiene colgando del labio el tipo de la primera foto.

I think to put you in the right state of mind to see them properly, I will start describing my life there:&lt;br /&gt;Como lo prometido es deuda, aquí están las primeras fotos del campo de trabajos forzados en el que he estado. Creo que unas fotos de la vida diaria para empezar a poneros en circunstancias serán bastante apropiadas para empezar:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The first photo is my cell. I was sharing a triple room with other two inmates, even if there were hundreds of empty beds on the camp, and it would have been possible not to share. But you know, American organization.&lt;br /&gt;La primera foto es de mi celda, que compartía con otros tres reclusos, incluso habiendo cientos de camas libres. Típica organización americana.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/1.jpg" border="0" /&gt; This is the corridor or my cell block, Wing E.&lt;br /&gt;Este es el pasillo del ala donde estaba mi celda, el Ala E.&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/2.jpg" border="0" /&gt; The galley, where we had to wait in line for taking the plastic utensils, after showing our identifications. I still don´t understand why. There was nobody around that camp that was in the middle of nowhere, and assuming somebody could sneak in through the guards, just to have a free meal, they would turn back and run away after seeing how disgusting food was there. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;El comedor, donde había que hacer cola para coger los utensilios de plástico y el rancho, tras enseñar la identificación. No he llegado a entenderlo, porque no había absolutamente nadie alrededor del campamento, que estaba perdido totalmente en mitad de ninguna parte. No, corrección. No es que estuviese perdido, es que no sé ni cómo lo encontraron. Cómo demonios se le ocurrió ponerse a buscar petróleo ahí, jamás lo sabré. En fin, que si alguien pudiese burlar la vigilancia y se colase para comer gratis, se volvía con el estómago vacío después de ver comida como aquella:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/3.1.jpg" border="0" /&gt; And now some assorted pictures of the rig and campsite, the derrick, endless cable drums, containers…&lt;br /&gt;Y ahora unas cuantas fotos surtidas del campamento, la perforación, bobinas interminables de cable, contenedores...&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/7.1.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/8.0.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/4.1.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/6.1.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/5.1.jpg" border="0" /&gt;This was the japanese tea room, fitted inside a container.&lt;br /&gt;La caseta del té, japonesa, que era también un contenedor:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/9.0.jpg" border="0" /&gt;And this was one of my typical take away dinners served in my unit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Y esta una de las cenas típicas que me servían en la unidad:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/10.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/10.0.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And the unit!!

I have been disconnected for a long while. I know some of you have checked my blog during my absence, and were dissapointed not to see updates. I am really sorry for that, but the rig I was working on had no internet access, or phone for that matter. It was an Exxon rig (american, of course) and it was like a concentration camp. In the next days I will upload photos to illustrate this idea, and you will see how it really was like a prison. Police everywhere, identity checks even to go for meals, jail-style food and dining rooms, colective showers in which it was scary to lean down to pick up the soap...  For the moment, here go a few photos of my journey to the rig from Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hola a todos. Me ha sido imposible actualizar el blog durante mi estancia en el campo de trabajos forzados de Exxon, la petrolera americana en Sajalín.  Me habían dicho que  iba a tener internet y teléfono y no había nada de nada. He estado incomunicado en un campo de concentración que era un estado policial con registros, controles de identidad hasta para ir a comer, duchas colectivas de esas en las que da miedo agacharse a coger el jabón (en mi caso por supuesto el miedo era a ser atacado por las chicas del campo, claro). La comida era una mierda que a los americanos no les hacía echar de menos la de su país, pero que a los demás nos daba de todo menos buenas digestiones. Pero de todo esto, de las nevadas, los zorros, osos, secuestradores y lanzagranadas ya vendrán fotos más adelante... por ahora disfrutad de estas fotos del trayecto hasta el campo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/P4286260.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So this is Philipp, our coordinator in Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk, and the other guy, of course, it is me after two sleepless nights. At the background, for all you who did not do your homework in Russian, you can see the train which covers the line Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk/Nogliki. 620 kilometers in the record time of 15 hours.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Aquí estamos Philipp, nuestro coordinador y yo. Para más detalles leed la parte de inglés, que me canso de repetirlo todo. De fondo, el tren que va de Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk al norte de la isla (Yuzhno es sur en Ruso) en 15 horas (620 km, echad la cuenta de la velocidad) Esta línea, fue interrumpida 3 semanas más tarde por una avalancha de nieve.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/P4286274.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just a photo of the East of the island from the train, some haze, lots of snow and a volcano at the background.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Una fotito desde el tren.

Just a 30-minute hop. However, that day the chopper  came back because of the weather. It was so foggy in the camp that they could not land. And we had to go by bus.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Los helicópteros que nos llevan al trabajo. 30 minutos desde el tren, pero ese día no había buena visibilidad y tuvimos que dar la vuelta, y fuimos en autobús.

If we start seeing many, and specially, if we start smashing them, the rig will be shut down by the authorities, or that is what they say.  Anyway, I was the first on to spot one, last night, and I took it and took it to safety outside of the rig, where only the storks can it it! Here you have a photo of that special limited edition frog.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/P2084599.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/P2084599.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19019468-113943148806481806?l=nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/feeds/113943148806481806/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19019468&amp;postID=113943148806481806' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/113943148806481806'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/113943148806481806'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/2006/02/this-rigsite-is-built-in-area-where.html' title=''/><author><name>Miguel Ángel</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01404081363933861079</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19019468.post-113924996880253129</id><published>2006-02-06T19:06:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2006-02-06T19:19:28.823+01:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>A Cool cat I saw this morning when we went to Alkmaar to do some shopping.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/P2064561.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/P2064561.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19019468-113924996880253129?l=nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/feeds/113924996880253129/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19019468&amp;postID=113924996880253129' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/113924996880253129'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/113924996880253129'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/2006/02/cool-cat-i-saw-this-morning-when-we.html' title=''/><author><name>Miguel Ángel</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01404081363933861079</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19019468.post-113915891582572055</id><published>2006-02-05T17:44:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2006-02-05T18:01:55.850+01:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>I had some time this morning and went out to sea the beach.

Las que sean, no hago diferencias. Los dirigentes religiosos son como los fumadores. Exigen respeto absoluto a sus creencias por parte de todo el mundo, pero luego no ofrecen en contrapartida ningún tipo de respeto a los derechos de las demás personas, como el derecho a no respirar humo venenoso o el derecho a la libertad de expresión. O al menos el derecho a no tener que escuchar su basura todo el tiempo, sin ir más lejos.&lt;br /&gt;Me cabrea muchísimo que todo lo que tienen que hacer es acogerse a la “religión” para estar por encima de la ley. Un periódico publica unas caricaturas de Mahoma, y eso está mal. Llamar a que la gente se manifieste quemando banderas está bien. Pues que les den. Ya no estamos en la edad media. Ahora hay reglas nuevas, tíos. En el año 2006 está dentro de la ley decir lo que te parezca en un periódico, al menos en el mundo civilizado. Así que veamos, según el Corán, no se permite hacer dibujos del profeta, ¿verdad? Hasta aquí bien. De acuerdo con el mismo libro, está permitido hacerse saltar por los aires en una “batalla” mientras que te lleves por delante a tantos enemigos como puedas, sin importar el “daño colateral”... bueno, seguramente me equivoco, porque no me he leído el Corán. Lo empecé, pero me aburría tanto que me dormí. Oh, perdón, que a lo mejor no se permite decir que EL Libro es aburrido. Oye, que como ya he dicho no hago distinciones, la Biblia es un puto rollo. Tendrían que hacer unas versiones de “Ultimates” de los dos libros a ver si conseguían lectores nuevos.&lt;br /&gt;Se escucha mucho en los medios de comunicación acerca de las diferentes interpretaciones del Corán que tienen las distintas comunidades, y que por eso algunas personas ven como aceptable los terroristas suicidas, y otros no.&lt;br /&gt;Dejad que os cuente lo que he visto con mis propios ojos. Cuando trabajé en Rusia el año pasado, la tripulación e la plataforma eran musulmanes de Indonesia. Creían que para limpiarse después de visitar el servicio, es pecado hacerlo con la mano derecha, y usando papel higiénico, así que en el proceso sólo utilizaban agua, su mano izquierda, las paredes del cubículo del servicio, el suelo, el asiento de la taza... Tenían un casco de obrero vacío al lado de la taza, lleno de agua, y se limpiaban las manos en el agua después de limpiarse el culo con la mano izquierda, y para limpiarse el resto del “producto” de la mano “impura”, usaban la pared y los demás elementos antes mencionados. ¿Eso lo hacen todos los musulmanes? ¿Puede decirme alguien en qué parte del Corán dice “Te limpiarás el culo con un casco y la pared del Váter”?&lt;br /&gt;Pero por favor, querido lector musulmán, no creas que sólo hablo de vosotros. Dejad que diga algo de los católico, por favor.&lt;br /&gt;Mi amiga Yoli se quejó el otro día porque un cura le echó la bronca por entrar en camiseta a una iglesia, por ser indecente.&lt;br /&gt;Bueno, veamos como va esto. En la Biblia debe haber un oscuro pasaje en alguna parte, del que nosotros los meros mortales no hemos oído hablar, que dice: No llevarás camiseta a la iglesia, pero si violas a niños pequeños durante años, !!!puedes ser miembro de la iglesia y hasta ser sacerdote y oficiar misa!!!&lt;br /&gt;Estos cabrones católicos no soportan el hecho de que están perdiendo poder lenta pero gradualmente, y por eso se han vuelto tan agresivos (con sus amigos peperos) al intentar imponer sus creencias ridículas, antiguas y fascistas, en la sociedad; como el no permitir que se casen los gays, que los divorciados se vuelvan a casar o que se usen condones.&lt;br /&gt;Me gustaría ver un folleto de promoción de la iglesia católica, imagino que dirá algo así:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hazte cura... Únete a nosotros y disfruta de libertad absoluta e impune para penetrar analmente a niños pequeños. Recuerda, ¡el sexo anal sólo es pecado fuera de la orden!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bueno, gracias a todos los que hayáis leído hasta el final, que creo que sólo serán los que se hayan sentido ofendidos por mis palabras.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/1138971364_extras_ladillos_2_0.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/1138971364_extras_ladillos_2_0.0.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am sick and tired of religious bullshit. Any religious bullshit, I make no difference at all. Religious leaders are like smokers. They demand absolute respect to their beliefs from everybody, but offer no respect whatsoever to other people’s rights, like the right not to breathe poisonous smoke, or the right to exert freedom of speech. Or at least the right not to have to listen to their crap all the time, for that matter.&lt;br /&gt;It really pisses me off that all they have to do is claim “religion” and they can be above the law. A newspaper publishes a cartoon about Mohammed, and that is wrong. They call out for people to demonstrate burning flags and that is right. Well, screw that. This is not the middle ages anymore. There are new rules in the game, buddies. In the year 2006, it is within the law to say what you want in a newspaper, at least in the civilized world.&lt;br /&gt;So, let me see. According to the Coran, it is not allowed to make drawings of the Profet, right? Fine so far. According to the same book it is lawful to blow yourself up in “battle” as long as you take as many enemies with you as you can, regardless the “collateral damage”… well, I am probably wrong, because I have not read the Coran. I started, but it was so boring I fell asleep. Oh, sorry, maybe it is not allowed to say THE book is boring. Hey, as I said I make no distinctions, the Bible is fucking boring too. They should make an “Ultimates” version of those books to get new readers.&lt;br /&gt;We hear on the media much about the different interpretations of the Coran in the different communities, that is why some people see as acceptable suicide bombing, for example, and other people don’t.&lt;br /&gt;Let me tell you about what I have seen with my own eyes. When I worked in Russia last year, the rig crew were muslims from Indonesia. They believed that to clean themselves after a visit to the toilet, it is sinful to do it with the right hand, and using toilet paper, hence in that process they only used water, their hands, the walls of the toilet booths, the floor, the toilet seat… They had an empty helmet next to the toilet bowl, full of water, and they cleaned their hands in that water after wiping their asses, and then in order to clean out their own produce from their “impure” hand, they used the wall and other elements mentioned above. Do all muslims do that? Can anyone tell me in which part of the Coran says “Thou shalt wipe thy ass with a helmet and the toilet wall”.&lt;br /&gt;But please, dear muslim readers, don’t think I only speak about you. Let me say something about catholics too, if you please.&lt;br /&gt;My friend Yoli complained the other day that a priest lectured her for going into a church wearing a short sleeved t-shirt for being indecent.&lt;br /&gt;So, let me see how this works. In the Bible there must be an obscure passage that we, mere mortals have never heard of in which it says: Thou shatl not wear a t-shirt in church, but if you rape little children for years, you are welcome to be part of our church and even be a priest and conduct mass!!!&lt;br /&gt;These catholic bastards cannot stand the fact that slowly but gradually are loosing power, and that is why they have become so aggressive when trying to impose their ridiculous, ancient and fascist beliefs in society, like reducing people’s freedom by not letting gays marry, not allowing divorced people to re-marry, not allowing the use of condoms.&lt;br /&gt;I would love to have a recuitment flyer from the Catholic church. I imagine they probably say something like this:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Become a priest… Join us and you will enjoy complete unpunished freedom to penetrate analy little children. Remember, anal sex is sin outside of the order!&lt;br /&gt;Ok, this is too long already, I doubt much people has read all of it. I think the only ones who would are the ones who feel offended by my words.

They are really cool orders.&lt;br /&gt;Orders of Maternal Glory 3rd class, awarded to mothers bearing 7 children, 2nd class, for mothers bearing more than 8 children, and 1st class, for bearers of 9. If you had more than 10 you were awarded the order of Mother Heroine, which I don´t have because it is very expensive.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/f0_1_b.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/f0_1_b.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Medals for 10, 15 and 20 years of Irreprochable Service in the Armed Forces of URRS.

A little more expensive than I expected to pay, to be honest. The seller could not give me a better photo or description of the medal, but for the low serial number and the booklet it looks to me like a Type 2, version 3 of the 4th release, produced between June and August 1945.  Do I sound like a geek now?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If it is, with the matching document then I will be very happy. If not, well... some interested in buying it? It will be very interesting to see what other medals or orders appear in the booklet. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/21_1_b.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/21_1_b.0.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19019468-113880276269272447?l=nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/feeds/113880276269272447/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19019468&amp;postID=113880276269272447' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/113880276269272447'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/113880276269272447'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/2006/02/my-next-hitch-will-not-be-offshore-but.html' title=''/><author><name>Miguel Ángel</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01404081363933861079</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19019468.post-113860634553849366</id><published>2006-01-30T08:22:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2006-01-31T23:28:46.880+01:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>RUN!!!! The horror... Save your lives if you can, the end is near. Snow!!!! In Madrid! Just watch the news on tv in case you are too afraid to look out the window! We are all going to die! This is a strange phenomenon, that is causing chaos all over the city and the country as well. I am afraid communication networks may be down soon... From Madrid I can confirm that the rumors are true. There are at least 5 milimeters of snow, and the forecast is that it will melt and dissapear... we are all doomed. If someone read this this message, please pass on the word, we are trying to gather food and survivors (same thing, really) in Madrid. I have managed to speak to a group of scientists to try and find an answer to this strange phenomenon.

To illustrate both jobs, there are some photos here.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/P1174102.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/P1174102.0.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/P1174101.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/P1174101.0.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19019468-113773969480412591?l=nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/feeds/113773969480412591/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19019468&amp;postID=113773969480412591' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/113773969480412591'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/113773969480412591'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/2006/01/many-people-ask-me-very-often-what-do.html' title=''/><author><name>Miguel Ángel</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01404081363933861079</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19019468.post-113743457279328468</id><published>2006-01-16T18:43:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2006-01-16T19:02:55.383+01:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>Due to great success that the appearance of MiguelMan and Sidekick in my previous post, they are back. I asked MiguelMan to please come over the unit during his lunch break to take some photos for his fans. Fortunately, Sidekick was with him, and they agreed to pose for me. They had been for a few hours in Afganistan kicking some American butt over there and giving the farmers a break. It was very funny, when MiguelMan arrived he was drinking kefir that the sheppereds presented him as a token of appreciation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/P1164097.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/P1164097.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;The Driling Duo in one of their classical poses.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/P1164094.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/P1164094.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Beleive it or not, Sidekick has not seen The Matrix. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/P1164093.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/P1164093.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;But MiguelMan has.

Nobody suspect that mild-mannered Miguel is the hidden identity after the well known super-hero. His special super powers make him virtually indestructible. He can bend drill pipe with his bare hands, drill wells with his laser vision, fly to shore in the thickest fog, pull the drill string free of the longest section of salt... His companion Sidekick fights along his side in their never ending campaign against the evil doers.

Esta vez en espanol, aunque me falten letras en el teclado. Este es el amanecer de ayer. Que no os engane el sol, hacia un frio del carajo. Pero la verdad es que cuando no esta nublado, es bastante bonito. Nada comparado con los amaneceres de Sajalin, pero bueno. Algo bueno debia tener Holanda, no? Hoy hacia tanto viento que habia que ponerse piedras en los bolsillos para no caerse por la borda. Estado de la mar, marejadilla.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19019468-113717782445853968?l=nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/feeds/113717782445853968/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19019468&amp;postID=113717782445853968' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/113717782445853968'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/113717782445853968'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/2006/01/hola-todos.html' title=''/><author><name>Miguel Ángel</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01404081363933861079</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19019468.post-113693288802755278</id><published>2006-01-10T23:39:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2006-01-10T23:41:28.070+01:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/P1104064.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/P1104064.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am sick of this job.

I wanted to show you some of my latest aquisitions in Russia. I could not get really good medals this time, but I got some really good badges, which I honestly I am starting to like more than the medals themselves. I have in mind a trip to Ukraine. That is a good medals and orders destination.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/P1054054.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/P1054054.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This one really kicks ass. "Excellent Borderguard, member of KGB" Absolutelly original. The logo at the bottom is the KGB logo. If the picture were better, you would be able to read the Russian characters for KGB in the red enamel.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/P1054052.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/P1054052.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; These badges are really cool. Top left: Komsomol member 1950s. Top right: Excellent worker 1950s. Bottom left: Moscow Olympics, 1980 (obviously). Bottom right: Frontline Soldier. I admit I am not sure, but I think this one was awarded along with the Order of the Great Patriotic War in 1985.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/P1054050.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/P1054050.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Top: A medal bar. From left to right "For the Victory over Germany", "20, 30 and 40 Years of the Victory over Germany" and "Veteran of Socialist Labour"&lt;br /&gt;Bottom: "Veteran of Socialist Labour" in its both versions silver and dark background. Both are from the Leningradsky Monetny Dvor. To the right, "100 years of the birth of Zhukov"&lt;br /&gt;All these are up for trading.

I am on the Ensco 72 in Holland, and my access to the net is limited, so this will take a few days. When I left the rig in December I flew to Russia. I spent some time there, but it was so cold that I did not go out much. I got some cool soviet badges, I will post about them when I get good photos. For the moment I prefer to talk about my New Year in Helsinki. It was THE GREATEST NY in my life. What a cool city. The weather very mild, just -2 to +2, against the -18 I had had in Russia days before. Hours of fireworks to say goodbye to 2005, lots of souvenirs related to mooses, my favourite annimal, and snow. Thanks to all for visiting my weblog, including the people who stop me on the street to congratulateme me for the cool photos (no bullshit, this has happened) Gracias, Edu, por tus felicitaciones, y sobre todo por visitar la web. Te has ganado que no te mande a los grises para Reyes. More to come... &lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/P1013821.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Bay and the City Centre of Helsinki shortly after NY.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/P1013864.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Art-Deco statues in the main train Station in Helsinki.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/PB303657.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;I swear that this is not Mars.

I'll be back with more as soon as I can.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Espero que os gusten las fotos.

This one has a very low serial number in the document, 1672, dated 22nd of October, 1942.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19019468-113386732410072802?l=nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/feeds/113386732410072802/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19019468&amp;postID=113386732410072802' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/113386732410072802'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/113386732410072802'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/2005/12/this-is-one-of-latest-additions-to-my.html' title=''/><author><name>Miguel Ángel</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01404081363933861079</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19019468.post-113386599826864333</id><published>2005-12-06T11:09:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2005-12-06T12:14:13.596+01:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/pic69.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/pic69.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/pic58.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/pic58.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/pic01.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/pic01.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why did all my American guests, when they came to Madrid last week, apologize for their president beforehand? It was like, "Hi, I´m Mark Wheatley, please to meet you, I apologize for George W."&lt;br /&gt;I am a little time pressed now, and cannot talk much about George. I will just write about the visit his brother Jeph made to Spain a couple of years ago, when he just had dinner with the King and Queen of Spain, and then he goes to a press conference and says that he is so very happy to be visiting the Republic of Spain.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Photos courtesy of www.bushorchimp.com&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19019468-113386599826864333?l=nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/feeds/113386599826864333/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19019468&amp;postID=113386599826864333' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/113386599826864333'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19019468/posts/default/113386599826864333'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nasiopaperfora.blogspot.com/2005/12/why-did-all-my-american-guests-when.html' title=''/><author><name>Miguel Ángel</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01404081363933861079</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19019468.post-113382714748245286</id><published>2005-12-06T00:50:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2005-12-06T00:59:07.496+01:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/Ratzinger02.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/Ratzinger02.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/1600/Ratzinger01.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5253/1874/320/Ratzinger01.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Our friend here, the Pope of Rome, who is the perfect example of how the Light side of the Force is stronger than the Dark side. As well as Darth Vader came back to the Light in the last few minutes of his life, just by saving his son´s life from the Emperor Palpatine, the fact that he was a member of Hitler´s youth did not stop the Counsil to make him Pope. Anakin slayed hundreds of Jedi and countless other lives during his rule of the galaxy. Mazinger was a part of the Nazi war machine.
