Only lasted 15 minutes the encounter between Monsignor Ezzati and Fernando  Karadima

The Archbishop of Santiago, Monsignor Ricardo Ezzati, met on Saturday for only 15 minutes with the ex pastor of El Bosque, Fernando Karadima, a day after justify his leaving the convent Servants of Jesus in Providence.

Ezzati, who had no comment after the meeting had said yesterday that Karadima "Of course we can leave. It is not in jail" after hearing complaints made ​​by victims of the priest, who expressed their rejection of this situation.
Karadima was submitted to the ruling of the Vatican, where he was forced to remain under "prayer and penance" for his role in child abuse, but was not sentenced by ordinary courts, because the cases for which it accuse were prescribed.
The president of the Episcopal Conference said yesterday that Karadima has restrictions on who can sustain meetings. “Not anyone he wish, with people who are authorized and that it be not within the restrictions set by the Holy See," he said.

OPINION: I think that the people should have the same penalty without import that is a religious or  any person , and that the state should intervene in criminal cases like this, and in my opinion it not doing  so is a mockery on the part of the offenders to system.

Website allows tracking to Father Christmas on a map!!

Where is it? Where do happened? How fast he go? These and other questions can be answered by looking at Father Christmas through a map. With an Internet connection you can see which is the exact location at this time.


By accessing the site (noradsanta.org) you can view immediately  at Father Christmas a map. According to Norad, the company that tracks, use "radar, satellites, cameras and fighter jets" to keep the information current.

The site also has a counter that allows access to the city of North Pole and find out what stores are more crowded.

The map has different symbols for know Where has recently shown, view recordings from around the world and show different views of the video.

OPINION: hahaha I think that is very funny that it created a website for see a father christmas for internet, sure at the children will like.


Movie


  
 The film "Corpse Bride"tells the story of two  youngsters, Victor and Victoria, who are about to marry (without that  they ), for an arranged marriage between their families.
The first time they see, love arises. In the rehearsal of the wedding, Victor makes too many mistakes and is forced to leave the house, until he will would learn to say their vows. Then he goes into the forest where it is able to recite his vows perfectly, putting the ring on a branch, the ground begins to move and  appears from  the ground a woman in wedding dress with the ring in her finger,she is called Emily (corpse Bride). With the delivery of the ring Victor becomes her boyfriend, and he is brought underground to the World of the Dead. He tries to return to the World of the live, along with Victoria. Victoria`s parents wanted arrange a second marriage to his daughter with Mr. Barkis Bittern, a mysterious man. but I will not tell you how it ends this brilliant history.

Another movie that I like is "Edward Scissorhands", this movie is very known, the history of the film is told by Kim, the girl that falls in love with Edward,the protagonist, a young man created by an eccentric inventor who dies, leaving at young man with scissors instead of hands.

I like both movies because, in first place, are directed by Tim Burton, my favorite director(> o <), it has many scenes with music and song by Danny Elfman (Burton's frequent collaborator),in the "Corpse Bride" I like that  the characters are similar  to those of the movie "Nightmare Before Christmas", the voices of Victor and Emily are made by Johnny Depp (my favorite actor) and ,Tim Burton's wife, Helena Bonham Carter, that is also an amazing actress. Also I like the movie "Edward Scissorhands" because is very nice and and sweet although is very sad.  It also I like his mysterious atmosphere, an original story, and the attractive of the movies of this director, that  catches you with his stories.
I totally recommend both movie!!! 
The next video is the trailer of the movie "Corpse Bride". Enjoy it !!


In this picture appears emily and victor,
I like so much this scene because they
play a piano duet that sound really cool.

I do not like songs without any meaning. Also I believe that they have a excellent sound , and they haven't a sound for only for have a sound, on the contrary I believe that they have a good acustic organization , and I like as sounds.  
Their albums be:
2002: "I brought you my bullets, you brought me your love"
2004: "Three cheers for sweet revenge"
2006: "The Black Parade"
