An incovenient truth

Hi everyone, and welcome again to heufeblog, a hidden place when you will have fun!

Today, I´m going to talk about “an inconvenient truth”, like Al Gore said. It's about my (no) environmental awareness and actions I do or don't do for it. First I must confess that on this subject I am not someone consequent, because there is a big difference between my actions and my conscience. I know, that is disappointing….

For example, I have read many books about the damage to the environment, and as capitalism needs plunder natural resources for their existence and growth, but in my day to day, in my actions, I am not someone who can be considered an environmentalist. In fact, I laugh a little with these people, because I think them are hippie and cynic.

The reason behind that, maybe, I never have seen examples of environmental awareness and actions about my parents (ok, I know I'm a bit old to say this, but the example is worth), just the opposite. My father is very bad recycler and my house is an example of this, sadly for me. On the other hand, my mother did not have pro-environmental actions, but some support for facebook to some cause, such as the "punta de choros" case, a very medialike example. But well, as they say, "from consciousness to action", and what I have to do now is to look a little more about my actions, to understand that if I do nothing, my claims are invalid.

But, not everything it’s lost, I think….
Finally, some actions for improve my environmental perform
- Use my bike! (it´s been left aside)
- Recycle the trash every wednesday
- Spare water
- Don’t use plastic bags

Well my friends, thanks for read my opinion and see you next time!

Reboxine: danger.

Hi everybody, welcome again to heufeblog, a hidden place when you will have fun. Today I’m gonna talk about a piece of news that I read today in “The Guardian”, a british popular newspaper website. It’s about “reboxine”, an antidepressant, and their dangerous effects. But before, I want to make a question…. Why in this society are there so many consumers of antidepressants?. I think people take it as a fact, without questioning it. Well, there are books like "Plato, no Prozac!", but I'm serious. I know that in Chile a lot of studies show that half of the population has used them. I think it’s very serious.

Let´s see the situation in England (remember Chile is called “Latin England” hah). Well, the piece of news states that scientists, of British Medical Journal, say about that drug works no better than a simple placebo, even that could have negative effects on the health of people who consumed it. They also complain that the company manufacturer that distributed the drug (Pfizer) never "notice" about the effects and hid very important information. Also, this scientists say that the manufacturer have financial interests, are more important than the people health. Outstanding but very common….sad but true

My favorite Movie !

Hi! Welcome back to Heufeblog!

Today I'm gonna talk about my favourite movie ever, but I have to tell you that I'm not really close to the cinema, even when I love it, I haven't seen so much movies like I whish to. Well, my personal favourite movie is...the fact is I'm not so sure, myabe its Taxi Driver, or maybe Requiem For A Dream, hahaha, I don't now. But I think I'm gonna tell you about another great movie: Hot Shots 2, if you haven't seen it yet, please...see it!, laugh is guaranteed. I like very much this movie because means a great irony about the all those idiots war movies we all know and that we have seen million times. I don't want to look like a snob or something, but anyway I have enjoied those king of movies too.

Anyway, this great movie is about that kind of things,a retired soldier who is finding himself at the east south of Asia, and then he is called by the C.I.A for a rescue mision of one of the soldiers that have been kidnapped by the evil Sadam Hussein. The name of this soldier is Tooper Harley, played the great Charlie Sheen, who at the begining don't wanna do the mision because he is on a peace state of mind, working as a carpenter and in his free time he practices thailand box. Then he changes his mind and he go to the dangerous rescue mission...there are all the hilarous parts of the movie, that are the reason to see this movie. My favourite scene is the fight between Sadam and the US president at the mansion of Sadam, memorable. Hope you see it!

See you in the next one fellas!
