<p>Researchers have shown that the brain regions that have long been recognized as a centre in which spoken or written words are decoded are also important in interpretting wordless gestures. This suggests that these brain regions may play a much broader role in the interpretation of symbols than previously thought. For this reason, it’s plausible that this could be the evolutionary starting point from which language originated.</p>

<p>The other day, I was shocked to find out that most people don&#8217;t have a working knowledge as to the names of the Marx Brothers. Imagine!  Seeing as the next few posts here at GB, HR. will revolve around all things Marxian, I thought it might be a fine idea to put up some sort of guide to the Brothers Marx. From left to right:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chico_Marx">Chico Marx</a> as the piano-playing, heavily Italian-accented punster, so-named because he was the one who – in real life – always got the chicks;</li>
<li><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Groucho_Marx">Groucho Marx</a>, the grouchy wisecracker, in his trademark greasepaint mustache and eyebrows;</li>
<li><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harpo_Marx">Harpo Marx</a>, the mischievous silent partner – except for the occasional horn, whistle, or prerequisite/eponymous Harp solo – dressed in an oversized coat-of-many-tricks,</li>
<li><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zeppo_Marx">Zeppo Marx</a> (the optional brother) as the pretty boy, named Zeppo because of a childhood affinity to Zeppelin airships;</li>
<li><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Margaret_Dumont">Margaret Dumont</a> (pictured below, sharing a sody-pop with Groucho) as the hoity-toity Gilded Age holdover and foil to the Marxs’ antics – indeed, Groucho sometimes called her “the fifth Marx Brother.”</li>
</ul>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p style="text-align:center;"><a href="http://grouchochicoyharpomarx.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/grouchomarx1.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-17 aligncenter" title="GrouchoMarx" src="http://grouchochicoyharpomarx.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/grouchomarx1.jpg?w=240" alt="" width="240" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>Nacido con no otro objetivo que descolocar, desconcertar y desesperar a cualquier persona que se encuentre a su alrededor, Groucho (Julius Henry Marx), a veces director de un hotel, otras veterinario o primer ministro de Libertonia siempre consigue con su ingenio e ironía caernos simpático e incluso desear cruzárnoslo en algún momento de nuestras vidas; aún siendo conscientes de que la gente que le rodea está próxima a sufrir un tick nervioso en el ojo izquierdo.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><a href="http://grouchochicoyharpomarx.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/harpo-marx.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-23" title="Harpo-Marx" src="http://grouchochicoyharpomarx.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/harpo-marx.jpg?w=241" alt="" width="241" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>En sus escenas si algo no existe es el silencio del que es un aunténtico experto su compañero y hermano en la vida real Harpo (Adolph Marx hasta 1911, año en que cambió su nombre por el de Arthur) que aunque le falte el sentido del habla no le hace falta emitir sonidos para expresarse.Tanto sus enfados y sentimientos  como sus ocurrencias quedan claras gracias al harpa que acostubra a tocar (de ahí su nombre artístico), o gracias a la bocina que le suele acompañar. Pero si esto fallara a su lado siempre esta su también hermano Chico, que hace las veces de su voz y voto.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><a href="http://grouchochicoyharpomarx.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/chico-marx-sm.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-19 aligncenter" title="chico-marx-sm" src="http://grouchochicoyharpomarx.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/chico-marx-sm.jpg?w=227" alt="" width="227" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>Otras veces Chico (Leonard Marx) se asemeja más a su hermano menor Groucho al poseer una habilidad nata para marear la perdíz. Siempre acompañado por Harpo hacen de compañeros de fechorías en distintas situaciones, aunque su especialidad es el timo. Disfruta y hace alarde de su don para confundir a la gente con el propósito (que por cierto siempre consigue)  de timarles.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><a href="http://grouchochicoyharpomarx.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/zeppo02.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-20 aligncenter" title="zeppo02" src="http://grouchochicoyharpomarx.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/zeppo02.jpg?w=222" alt="" width="222" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>Se dice que Chico es el responsable del sobrenombre de su hermano Zeppo (Herbert Marx) ya que comenzó a llamarle Zeb por el nombre de un cómico de su época, pero existen diferentes teorías acerca del procedimiento de este mote. Zeppo aparece tan sólo en las cinco primeras películas de estos, después cambió la actuación por la mecánica.  Es mucho más discreto y elegante que sus hermanos y en pocas ocasiones es cómico. El ser el más agraciado físicamente de los cinco hace que siempre tenga buena compañía femenina. Zeppo estuvo especialmente unido a su hermano Gummo ya que ninguno de los dos se decantó por el mundo del cine.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><a href="http://grouchochicoyharpomarx.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/678_119312886514.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-21 aligncenter" title="678_119312886514" src="http://grouchochicoyharpomarx.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/678_119312886514.jpg?w=215" alt="" width="215" height="300" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align:left;">Gummo (Milton Marx) participó con sus hermanos en el tiempo del vodevil (género de humor dramático que crea situaciones cómicas) en los comienzos de los hermanos Marx como humoristas. Así Gummo no participó en ninguna de las películas de los hermanos al ser sustituido por Zeppo. Sirvió como soldado en la I Guerra Mundial y después formó junto a su hermanos Zeppo una agencia teatral. Finalmente vendieron esta agencia y Gummo se convirtió en el representante de Groucho.</p>

<p>Se afeitaba <strong>Homper</strong><em> </em>y veía en el espejo su cara de bobo más estupefacta que nunca. Estaba escuchando las noticias de la radio. Y se acordó de una de las frases más geniales de su admirado pensador <strong><a href="http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Groucho_Marx" target="_blank">Groucho Marx</a>.</strong> <em>Estos son mis principios –</em>dijo éste-<em> Claro que, si no le gusta, tengo otros.</em> A eso ahora le llaman relativismo, o sensibilidad social</p>
<p>El siniestro<a href="http://www.elpais.com/articulo/espana/Gobierno/explora/todas/vias/legales/resolver/secuestro/Alakrana/elpepuesp/20091110elpepunac_4/Tes" target="_blank"> secuestro del </a><strong><em><a href="http://www.elpais.com/articulo/espana/Gobierno/explora/todas/vias/legales/resolver/secuestro/Alakrana/elpepuesp/20091110elpepunac_4/Tes" target="_blank">Alakrana</a>.</em></strong> Se ha gangrenado entre el gobierno y la judicatura y ahora no hay genio de la política capaz de resolverlo. La vida de los secuestrados frente la firmeza del estado derecho. A ver quien ata esa mosca por el rabo.</p>
<p>No se intervino por la fuerza porque aunque al gobierno le amparase el derecho internacional se lo hubieran impedido sus escrúpulos: el diálogo balsámico, panacea universal de todos los males, el buenismo <em>naif, </em>el pacifismo a ultranza,<em> </em>la <strong>Alianza</strong><strong> de Civilizaciones</strong>. <em>In dubio, semper pro criminale</em>. Y si  éste chantajea, ni un cachetito de niño malo: un poco más de déficit y que siga resplandeciendo la aureola del <strong>Obama</strong> descafeinado de <strong>Occidente</strong>. <em>Este es mi estado de derecho-</em> parece querer decirnos ahora. <em>Pero si molesta a alguien, ya lo modificaré, siempre que no se comente demasiado. </em></p>
<p><em> </em></p>
<p>-Es el estado de derecho de plastilina- le comentó a Homper un viejo compañero de la Facultad de Derecho mientras tomaban un café- Cuando la violencia es legítima, no la utilizo, porque no queda bien. Cuando la fiscalía me conviene, le pongo cachonda para que actúe. Pero si me mete en un lío, ya buscaré la manera de de burlar su celo. Al fin y al cabo, también nos enseñaron  que la política es el arte de lo posible. Menos mal que al personal el imperio de la ley le importa un comino. Mientras funcione el estado de bienestar, <a href="http://www.telecinco.es/salvame/detail/detail17786.shtml" target="_blank"><strong>Belén Esteban y Jorge Javier Vázquez </strong></a>nos canten las uvas y haya fútbol gratis por la tele, adelante con los faroles.</p>
<p>Escucha <strong>Homper </strong>a la familia de los secuestrados mientras se da el alter shave. Y, como a cada quisque, se le desgarra el alma. También se le rompe pensando que poco a poco, a base de rebajar las aristas de las leyes,  nos van cambiando la arquitectura del alma. Hoy se mira ante el espejo como un ciudadano de nuestro tiempo y, sin llegarse a ver tan feo como <strong><a href="http://www.alohacriticon.com/viajeliterario/article406.html" target="_blank">el retrato de Dorian Gray</a>, </strong>se siente extraño. Sin darse cuenta, se ha convertido también él en un hombre de plastilina.</p>

<p>&#8220;The power of Twitter is in the people you follow.&#8221;-<a href="http://twitter.com/nytimes">@nytimes</a></p>
<p>You&#8217;ll find that quote at <a href="http://nytimes.com/twitter">NYTimes.com/Twitter</a>, where the <a class="zem_slink" title="New York Times" rel="homepage" href="http://www.newyorktimes.com">New York Times</a> has built a page of Twitter lists curated by its editors, its writers and, presumably, the help of its considerable audience.</p>
<p>As this feature has rolled out, I&#8217;ve read knee jerk criticism, thoughtful analysis, wild evangelizing and observed &#8220;lists of lists&#8221; be collected as sites like<a href="http://listorius.com"> Listorious</a> and <a href="http://listatlas.com/">Listatlas.com</a> spring up to rank them.</p>
<p>Tech pundits, plaudits and, rapidly, news organizations have all created lists that offer apply new taxonomies, imposed human-defined categories onto the roiling real-time tweetstream.</p>
<p><strong>Readers are defined and informed by the diversity of the information sources that they consume. In a user-created Web, we are defined by those who choose to follow us, including any lists or tags that they associate with  our names.</strong></p>
<p>It&#8217;s been exciting to watch. And if you&#8217;re a reader of <a href="http://www.hyperorg.com/">David Weinberger</a>, author of &#8220;<a href="http://www.everythingismiscellaneous.com/">Everything is Miscellaneous</a>,&#8221; you might recognize this emergent behavior as a familiar phenomenon. Twitter users are using lists to organize one another into understandable taxonomies. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Folksonomy">Folksonomies</a>, to use the term <a href="http://vanderwal.net/folksonomy.html">coined </a>by Thomas <a href="VanderWal">Vander Wal</a>.</p>
<p>Users have <em>some </em>control over which Twitter lists they appear upon. If you block a user, for instance, you can remove yourself from that user&#8217;s lists, if for some reason you don&#8217;t want to appear on it.</p>
<p>What we can&#8217;t control, once we make ourselves public there or elsewhere on the Web, is how others tag or list <em>us</em>.</p>
<p>This goes back to what Weinberger (along with <a class="zem_slink" title="Doc Searls" rel="homepage" href="http://searls.com">Doc Searls</a>, Rick Levine and Christopher Locke) wrote about in &#8220;<a href="http://www.cluetrain.com/">The Cluetrain Manifesto</a>&#8221; ten years ago. &#8220;Markets are conversations.&#8221;</p>
<p>I suspect that in the weeks ahead, both companies and individuals may find themselves on lists that they perhaps would not wish to define as part of their brand identities.</p>
<p><strong>&#8220;I would not join any club that would have someone like me for a member&#8221;</strong></p>
<p>As I quote Groucho Marx, today, I feel fortunate, for two different reasons.</p>
<p>First, to date, I&#8217;ve been included on 176 lists, none of which I&#8217;m embarrassed or insulted to be on. You can see all of them at &#8220;<a href="http://twitter.com/digiphile/lists/memberships">memberships</a>,&#8221; which is a friendly way of describing inclusion.</p>
<p>Thank you. I&#8217;m humbled.</p>
<p>Second, most of the lists are being used by an individual user to categorize others for providing particular sort of information.</p>
<p>Overall, I&#8217;m most closely associated with technology, journalism, security and media. That&#8217;s  a good sign, given my profession! I was glad to see that the account I maintain at work (<a href="http://twitter.com/icompliance">@ITcompliance</a>) has been added to 33 lists, primarily compliance, information security, cybersecurity and GRC.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m talking about the right things in the right places.</p>
<p>Certain lists, however, have meant that many more people reading me than would have otherwise because of the hundreds or thousands of people that have chosen to follow them, due to the influence of their creators.  I&#8217;m thinking about lists like these, some of which have gone on to become popular at <a href="http://listorious.com">Listorious.com</a>.</p>

<p>Thank you, fellas.</p>
<p>Like any other tools, lists will no doubt be used for good and ill. An outstanding article by Megan Farber, &#8220;<a href="http://www.cjr.org/the_news_frontier/fort_hood_a_first_test_for_twi.php">Fort Hood: A First Test for Twitter Lists</a>&#8221; in the <a class="zem_slink" title="Columbia Journalism Review" rel="homepage" href="http://www.cjr.org/">Columbia Journalism Review</a>, shows how news organizations can leverage the feature to curate the real-time Web for the online audience.</p>
<blockquote><p>The lists—which offer a running stream of information, updates, and commentary from the aggregated feeds—represent a vast improvement over the previous means of following breaking news in real time. In place of free-for-all Twitter hashtags—which, valuable as they are in creating an unfiltered channel for communication, are often cluttered with ephemera, re-tweets, and other noise—they give us editorial order. And in place of dubious sources—users who may or may not be who they say they are, and who may or may not be worthy of our trust—the lists instead return to one of the foundational aspects of traditional newsgathering: reliable sources. Lists locate authority in a Twitter feed’s identity—in, as it were, its brand: while authority in hashtagged coverage derives, largely but not entirely, from the twin factors of volume and noise—who tweets the most, who tweets the loudest—authority in list-ed coverage derives from a tweeter’s prior record. Making lists trustworthy in a way that hashtagged coverage simply is not.</p></blockquote>
<p>Farber goes further in exploring what role lists may play in journalism&#8217;s future, as organizations collaborate with both their audience and one another in curating user-generated content. It&#8217;s a great piece. Pete Cashmore, of @mashable, has written more about this at CNN in &#8220;<a href="http://www.cnn.com/2009/TECH/11/04/twitter.lists/index.html">Twitter lists and real-time journalism</a>.&#8221;</p>
<p>Individuals and news organizations alike can create lists as needed. For instance, as the House debates a historic health care bill here in Washington, you can follow the discussion at <a href="http://twitter.com/Mlsif/healthdebatelive">@Mlsif/healthdebatelive</a></p>
<p>As Cashmore points out, in the social, &#8220;people-centric Web,&#8221; we use our friends as a filter. As <a href="http://twitter.com/pgillin">Paul Gillin</a> observed, <a href="http://gillin.com/blog/2009/11/all-you-ever-learned-about-seo-may-be-worthless/"> everything that you&#8217;ve learned about SEO may be useless</a> in a more social Web. Google&#8217;s new <a href="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2009/10/introducing-google-social-search-i.html" target="new">Social Search</a> shows how, if we choose, our search results can be populated with content from our circle of friends.</p>
<p>On Twitter, we can now use the lists from trusted friends and news organizations to curate the real-time Web. That makes them useful, immediately. </p>
<p>And after a week full of public grief here in the U.S., that&#8217;s good news.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Le week-end d&#8217;Halloween 2009 restera un de mes préférés pendant encore des décennies je crois. Le seul problème est que j&#8217;en suis déjà nostalgique. Aujourd&#8217;hui le temps est gris, il pleut, il fait un putain de froid de canard et Kate est malade à son tour, elle peut rester sous les couvertures pendant que je dois m&#8217;occuper des courses et de régler plein de papiers à la banque et ailleurs. J&#8217;ai encore lâché un job parce que la vie est trop courte pour s&#8217;emmerder avec ça quand <del datetime="2009-11-03T09:30:21+00:00">on ne s&#8217;y plaît pas</del> ça ne convient pas et parce que je peux me le permettre, j&#8217;ai trimé des années pour mettre de l&#8217;argent de côté et faire face à ce genre de situations. Enfin, &#8220;ce genre de situations&#8221; a changé, à la base j&#8217;économisais pour notre Futur, avec des gosses et tout ça, puis quand on a appris qu&#8217;on ne pourrait pas en avoir (sortez pas vos mouchoirs, ce genre de trucs arrivent à plein de gens à chaque seconde) on a décidé qu&#8217;on en ferait bon usage pour se réaliser dans une vie qui nous plaît.</p>

<p>Je vais donc prendre soin de ma magnifique petite amie, mettre le chauffage un peu plus fort, lui préparer de bonnes soupes et des crêpes pour le goûter, en me dandinant sur les <strong>Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band</strong>. Et comme c&#8217;est ce qui la réconforte le plus, je vais organiser le divan du salon avec des couvertures et des oreillers pour faire une tente bien confortable.</p>

<p>Et on regardera <em>The Ninth Configuration</em>, de <strong>William Peter Blatty</strong> (l&#8217;auteur de <em>L&#8217;exorciste</em>, nouvelle qu&#8217;il a écrite pendant une année sabbatique après avoir gagné 10 000$ dans le quiz show de <strong>Groucho Marx</strong>),  en faisant comme si le temps s&#8217;était arrêté à cet instant si précieux (on a du sirop d&#8217;érable véritable pour les crêpes). Je t&#8217;aime, Kate.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Monday&#8217;s questions were:</p>
<p>1. Where and when was Anchor butter launched.</p>
<p>2. What is a <em>piwakawaka</em>?</p>
<p>3.  Who said: <em>&#8220;If you find it hard to laugh at yourself I would be happy to do it for you.&#8221;</em>?</p>
<p>4. Who wrote the poem, <em>Milking Before Dawn</em>?</p>
<p>5. What does<em>  sinistrorse </em>mean?</p>
<p>Paul Tremewan and Gravedodger share the honours today.</p>
<p>Paul&#8217;s stab in the dark for Anchor butter missed but he got the other four right with a bonus for amusing me with the extra info on Groucho. (But why equus in relation to sinistorse? I know it&#8217;s the name of a play and that it relates to matters equine but don&#8217;t get the link to left).</p>
<p>Gravedodger got four right and a bonus for close-enough for his Anchor butter answer.</p>
<p>The full answer on Anchor is at <a href="http://www.nzhistory.net.nz/timeline" target="_blank">NZ Histroy Online</a>.</p>
<p>Samo got three right and PDM can have a bonus for honesty.</p>
<p>Tuesday&#8217;s answers follow the break:</p>
<p><!--more--></p>
<p>1. From a dairy factory at Pukekura, Waikato,  by Henry Reynolds, on November 3, 1886.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.nzhistory.net.nz/timeline/3/11" target="_blank">NZ History Online </a>says:  <em>The brand name was allegedly inspired by a tattoo on the arm of one of his workers.</em></p>
<p>2. Fantail.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.nzbirds.com/birds/fantail1.html" target="_blank">nzbirds.com </a>says:<em> Apart from hiwaiwaka, tirairaka and tiwakawaka, there are sixteen other dialectal Maori names for the fantail, many of which denote the restlessness of this little bird.</em></p>
<p>3. Groucho Marx.</p>
<p>4. Ruth Dallas.</p>
<p>5. Rising towards the left.</p>

<description><![CDATA[Nobody had heard of Groucho Marx.  No, it’s not a lost &#8220;Twilight Zone&#8221; episode, it’s wha]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Nobody had heard of Groucho Marx.  No, it’s not a lost &#8220;Twilight Zone&#8221; episode, it’s what we experienced at the Halloween-Sooper-Dooper-Store in Berkeley.  This has got to be one of the 7 signs of the Apocalypse.  We were looking for a pair of classic “Groucho Glasses” only to discover that none of the three salespeople <strong>or</strong> the store manager had ever heard of Groucho, the Marx Brothers or even just &#8220;Groucho Glasses.&#8221;  The only specs in their computer inventory were Nerd Glasses with thick lenses and tape in the middle (thanks, I already own a prescription pair).  Nobody knows the Marx Brothers anymore?  Great, now I’ve got something besides global warming to fret about.</p>
<div id="attachment_1165" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 415px"><img class="size-full wp-image-1165" title="grouchoglasses" src="http://isamaras.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/grouchoglasses1.jpg" alt="grouchoglasses" width="405" height="200" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Educational Moment: these are &#34;Groucho Glasses&#34; and this is Groucho Marx</p></div>
<p>The other surprise was in the kiddie costume isle.  No, not the endless variations on Lil’Ho’s (Skanky the Witch!  Slutty the Cat!  Floozy the Fairy!).  Sadly those have been around long enough that they&#8217;ve lost their shock value.  What got my jaw dropping was actually in the boy’s costume section &#8212; it was <em>a Toilet Costume</em>.  (I guess if nothing else he&#8217;s armed and ready to t.p. someone&#8217;s house.) Unlike the model-perfect children pictured on the other packages, this poor kid was a sort of proto-geek with big silver braces.</p>
<div id="attachment_1166" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 278px"><img class="size-full wp-image-1166" title="45316f5913280" src="http://isamaras.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/45316f59132801.jpg" alt="45316f5913280" width="268" height="350" /><p class="wp-caption-text">I hope his modeling money went into a therapy fund.</p></div>
<p>Now if I had a nickel for every time my kid said “pee,” “fart” or “poo” I’d be a very rich, very annoyed gal.  (If I had a penny for every time he said &#8220;dong&#8221; I&#8217;d be a millionaire.)  But even <strong>he</strong> doesn’t want to dress as a toilet.  Was this costume-as-punishment?  Later at home I looked it up online where the text explained <em>“Child toilet costume is also perfect for every potty mouth kid &#8212; Use as a modern day Dunce cap.” </em> Yup, definitely start saving up for those therapy bills now.</p>
<p>Right next to that was an inflatable costume of an upside down donkey, with the smiling kid’s head protruding out of the donkey’s ass.  That’s right – it’s a Jackass Costume! They claim the costume is “surprisingly comfortable” but how comfortable is that kid going to be as the endless butt of donkey-butt jokes all night?</p>
<div class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 230px"><img class="size-full wp-image-1162" title="00195073.detail.a" src="http://isamaras.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/00195073-detail-a.jpg" alt="00195073.detail.a" width="220" height="278" /><p class="wp-caption-text">It IS surprising that it&#39;s comfortable....</p></div>
<p>Another family that should start a therapy fund.  (<em>&#8220;No gifts this year, just donate to our account with Dr. Davenport again.&#8221;</em>)  Somebody must be buying ‘em, or they wouldn’t bother to make the things, but I&#8217;m at a loss as to who would buy either of these or why. (<em>&#8220;Well I really wanted to be Darth Vader but I guess a toilet would be okay&#8230;&#8221;</em>)</p>
<p>I&#8217;m still working on my costume.  There will be silver, and big boots.  (And no, it&#8217;s not one of those fancy automatic coin-operated French public toilets.)</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Groucho Marx nació a “una edad muy temprana” (según sus propias palabras) en Nueva York. Aquel 2 de octubre de 1890 su madre Minnie Schoemberg dio a luz al tercero de sus cinco hijos varones: Julius Henry Marx. Proveniente de una familia muy humilde con orígenes artísticos Groucho comenzó a trabajar en el mundo de la música a los 15 años como solista.</p>
<p>Más tarde colaboró con sus hermanos en la obra  “Los cuatro cocos” que les abrió el camino hacia el éxito y hacia Broadway. Gracias a esto firmaron un acuerdo con la Paramount que les permitió grabar éxitos entre los que se encuentra  “Sopa de Ganso”. A este gran film le siguieron otros como “Un día en las carreras” o “Una noche en la ópera” pero ya separados de la Paramount y junto a Metro Goldwin Mayer. Estas producciones les llevaron a la fama especialmente en una America sumergida en crisis económicas y guerras mundiales. Pero Groucho no sólo se dedicaba al mundo cinematográfico, también a la radio, a la escritura y a la televisión, donde cosechó grandes triunfos gracias a su exitoso programa “Apueste su vida” tras la separación de sus hermanos en 1950. En su faceta como escritor publicó varios libros sobre su vida con los que nos transporta a su época pero siempre en un alarde de inteligente humor.</p>
<p>Julius Henry Marx se caracterizaba por su ingenio y así lo demostraba con frases como: “Estos son mis principios. Si a usted no le gustan, tengo otros”, “¿A quien va usted a creer?, ¿a mi, o a sus propios ojos?” o “Bebo para hacer interesantes a las demás personas.” Pudo haber sido este ingenio la razón por la que mantuvo una ajetreada vida amorosa. Así, se casó hasta en tres ocasiones y tuvo tres hijos.</p>
<p>Marx murió el 19 de agosto de 1977 en Los Ángeles debido a una neumonía. Se dice que su epitafio dicta: “Perdonen que no me levante” pero no es cierto ya que fue incinerado y sus restos descansan en Eden Memorial Park.</p>

<p>Toda vez que alguém me diz que falas e diálogos são recursos cinematográficos pobres e evitáveis, eu fico com uma puta dó do sujeito, porque de duas uma: ou ele é meio limítrofe, ou ele nunca teve o prazer de ver um filme do Tarantino, do Rohmer ou do Mankiewicz, o que é muito triste.</p>
<p>Não bastasse a força da palavra, é inegável que uma conversa, se bem feita, tem também um enorme poder imagético. Estou certo de que Groucho Marx nunca funcionou tão bem no teatro como ele funcionou na tela grande.</p>
<p>Para acabar com esse preconceito que a galera tem com diálogos, sugiro Bastardos Inglórios, em especial a primeira cena do filme. Se você não tem tempo ou dinheiro para conferir esse grande filme, aí vai uma série de vídeos do youtube com grandes diálogos cinematográficos:<!--more--></p>

<p> </p>
<p>I find myself,</p>
<p>sitting with myself,</p>
<p>by myself,</p>
<p>engaging in bouts of uncontrollable laughing.</p>
<p>A matter of fact statement at a dinner &#8220;If you don&#8217;t like it don&#8217;t eat it.&#8221; by me,</p>
<p>A retort from a dining companion &#8221; You tell him, Barbara.&#8221;</p>
<p>But it was a simple statement&#8230; meant with no malice,</p>
<p>reflecting later, during work at my computer &#8230;an uncontrollable bout of laughing occurs&#8230;</p>
<p>Oh it is a strange world, I&#8217;m glad I don&#8217;t fit in..except occasionally!</p>
<p>when sitting by myself ,</p>
<p>with myself&#8230;</p>
<p> </p>
<p><span style="color:#008000;">Groucho Marx says&#8230;</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#008000;">&#8220;A child of five would understand this. Send someone to fetch a child of five. &#8220;</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#008000;">&#8220;Either he&#8217;s dead or my watch has stopped. &#8220;</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#008000;">&#8220;Go, and never darken my towels again. &#8220;</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#008000;">&#8220;Humor is reason gone mad.&#8221;</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#008000;">&#8220;I have had a perfectly wonderful evening, but this wasn&#8217;t it. &#8220;</span></p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>By Daniella Alpher</p>
<p>We&#8217;re very pleased to announce we&#8217;ve been accepted into Astia&#8217;s Doing it Right program. <a title="Astia" href="http://www.astia.org/" target="_blank">Astia</a> is a global non-profit organization that supports women entrepreneurs. It&#8217;s known for its unique ecosystem of venture capitalists, angel investors and businesswomen. <a title="Doing it Right" href="http://www.astia.org/content/view/1443/1154/" target="_blank">Doing it Right</a> is its &#8220;venture bootcamp,&#8221; a week of marathon workshops and coaching. It&#8217;s a highly competitive program so we&#8217;re honored and excited to be, as <a title="Groucho Marx" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Groucho_Marx" target="_blank">Groucho Marx</a> would say, a member of this prestigious and classy club.</p>
<p>We hope to benefit from Astia&#8217;s advisors and network. We wanted to attend Doing it Right next month in Silicon Valley, but we&#8217;re having a hard time coming up with the funds so we may end up having to wait till May and attend in London or New York instead. But we&#8217;ve already received some valualbe feedback just from Astia&#8217;s screening process alone. 60% of Astia’s members have achieved funding or acquisition within one year of teaming up with it, so this is great news.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><em> </em></p>
<div id="attachment_2711" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 234px"><em><em><img class="size-medium wp-image-2711" title="katyn021707" src="http://elduendedelaradio.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/katyn021707.jpg?w=224" alt="KATYN es una película que debía de ser de visión obligatoria para los jóvenes que apuntan maneras ultras..." width="224" height="300" /></em></em><p class="wp-caption-text">KATYN es una película que debía de ser de visión obligatoria para los jóvenes que apuntan maneras ultras...</p></div>
<p><em>Confiteor Dei –</em>sueña el Duende por la noche. Me confieso ante Dios tododopoderoso de que pequé gravemente de pensamiento. Pensaba que había buenos y malos. Y que, naturalmente la guerra de los buenos no era mala. Pensaba que los indios muertos, los alemanes muertos, las gángsteres muertos, los <em>japos </em>muertos, los <strong>piratas del Caribe</strong> muertos, los infieles muertos, los bereberes muertos, los tártaros muertos,  los <strong>soldados de la Unión</strong> muertos y todos los malos de las películas muertos estaban bien muertos. Y que la guerra que a veces en forma de soldadito de plomo, soldadito de goma, <strong>Fort Comanche</strong> de madera, escopeta de pistones, pistola de agua, arco con flechas de ventosa y una metralleta de aire comprimido que disparaba una especie de bolas de ping pong era una guerra tan santa y legítima como la que nos contaban de <strong>Don Pelayo, de Ricardo Corazón de León</strong> y del mismísimo <strong>Santiago Matamoros</strong>.</p>
<p>Y el Duende confiesa, además, que jugaba a la guerra y a matar malos. Y que ni siquiera le parecía algo desagradable, porque la sangre de los tebeos de <strong><em><a href="http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boixcar" target="_blank">Hazañas bélicas</a>, </em></strong>del <strong><em>Guerrero del Antifaz, </em></strong>de <strong>Roy Rogers</strong> o del <strong><em>Capitán Trueno</em></strong> no pringaba nada. Y en las películas de <strong>Gary Cooper, Clark Gable y Robert Taylor y Errol Flyn, </strong>que mira que mataban y moría gente en ellas, apenas se veía una mancha roja. Se peleaban a puñetazos en el <em>Saloon</em> porque las vacas de Mac Cormack había invadido el rancho del magnate mal encarado, y apenas les quedaba un moratón en la mejilla. Hasta que en <strong><em>Grupo salvaje </em></strong> el audaz <strong>Sam Peckimpah </strong>nos enseñó que del agujero de una bala brota un borbotón de sangre, todo eran odios inocuos, guerras incruentas, dramas ingenuos. Y, sobre todo, buenos-buenos y malos-malos.</p>
<p>-Pues yo andaba muy cómodo  con el maniqueísmo-confiesa el Duende a su <strong>Pepito Grillo.</strong></p>
<p>Había algunas sombras sospechosas. Por ejemplo, <a href="http://www.mdzol.com/mdz/nota/153603-Hitler-y-Stalin-y%C2%A0un-pacto-siniestro/" target="_blank"><strong>Stalin</strong></a>, que aunque aparecía en las fotos de <strong>Yalta</strong> entre los buenos, lagarto lagarto. Claro, que nada al lado de lo que pinta una película polaca de <strong>André Wajda</strong>, tan valiente y políticamente incorrecta como descarnada y brutal, que se titula <a href="http://www.filmaffinity.com/es/film120942.html" target="_blank"><strong><em>Katyn</em></strong></a>, y que pasa discretamente por las pantallas. Stalin lagarto lagarto, no: cocodrilo, cocodrilo.</p>
<p>Qué tiene que ver esta guerra con la que aplaudíamos como locos en el cine del cole los domingos por la tarde cuando nos <em>echaban</em> <strong><em>Guadalcanal, Objetivo Birmania, Fuego en la  Nieve </em></strong>o <strong><em>Los diablos de las colinas de acero. </em></strong>Aquellas del cine en blanco en negro, de los tebeos y los cromos hacían héroes de postal de <strong>Navidad</strong>, niños belicosos que no conseguíamos odiar del todo a la guerra. Pero apunten esta letanía truculenta: <strong><em>La lista de Schindler, </em></strong> <strong><em>Salvad al soldado Ryan, El enemigo en puertas, El pianista, El libro negro, </em></strong>y ahora <strong><em>Katyn</em>, </strong>donde se cuenta cómo la matanza de veinte mil oficiales polacos que hasta la caída del muro de Berlín se atribuía a los nazis fue una fechoría de <strong><em>papá Stalin</em>. </strong>Todas buenísimas. Sobre todo, para confirmar uno de los pensamientos más sublimes de <strong><a href="http://www.frasesypensamientos.com.ar/autor/groucho-marx.html" target="_blank">Groucho Marx</a>: </strong><em>cuanto más conozco a la especie humana, más amo a mi perro.</em></p>
<p><em>Confiteor Dei –</em>soñaba el Duende esta noche, después de haber visto la última de estas terribles películas. <em>Me confieso de haber imaginado que le daba un beso a tornillo a <strong>Marilyn Monroe</strong> y luego le tocaba las tetas.</em><strong>..</strong>Y Dios se le aparecía encarnado en el ángel de <strong><em>Qué bello es vivir, </em></strong>y en lugar de imponerle penitencia le daba una bolsa de chuches.</p>
<p>-Toma, hijo&#8230;¡Si sabrás tú lo que es malo!&#8230;</p>

<description><![CDATA[Frank Ferrante as &quot;Groucho&quot; Fresh from nearly four months in the role of Caesar in Teatro ]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><div id="attachment_791" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 275px"><a href="http://teatrozinzanniseattle.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/00010001.jpg"><img class="size-large wp-image-791" title="00010001" src="http://teatrozinzanniseattle.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/00010001.jpg?w=265" alt="Frank Ferrante as &#34;Groucho&#34;" width="265" height="400" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Frank Ferrante as &#34;Groucho&#34;</p></div>
<p>Fresh from nearly four months in the role of Caesar in Teatro ZinZanni&#8217;s recent production of <strong><em>Bottega ZinZanni</em></strong>, comedian <strong>Frank Ferrante</strong> reprises his critically acclaimed one-man show, <em><strong>An Evening with Groucho </strong></em>this coming weekend at two locations in the Seattle area.</p>
<p>In <em><strong>An Evening With Groucho,</strong></em> Ferrante recreates his PBS, New York and London acclaimed portrayal of legendary comedian Groucho Marx in 90 minutes of fast-paced hilarity. The two-act comedy consists of the best Groucho one-liners, anecdotes and songs including &#8220;Hooray for Captain Spalding,&#8221; and &#8220;Lydia, the Tattooed Lady.&#8221; The audience literally becomes part of the show as Ferrante ad-libs his way throughout the performance in grand Groucho style. Accompanied by his onstage pianist, Jim Furmston, Ferrante portrays the young Groucho of stage and film and reacquaints us with the likes of brothers Harpo, Chico, Zeppo and Gummo, Charlie Chaplin, W.C. Fields, Greta Garbo, Marx foil, Margaret Dumont and MGM&#8217;s Louis B. Mayer.</p>
<p>Cited as “nothing short of masterful” by the Chicago Tribune,  <em><strong>An Evening with Groucho</strong></em> is not to be missed.</p>
<p><strong>Friday, OCTOBER 23<br />
&#8220;DUCK SOUP&#8221; SCREENING</strong><br />

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Like anybody who writes a blog, I follow links to who is reading me to see what interests them. I was looking over a recent posting on Notes from an Inquisitive Mind and am currently kicking myself a little for having missed a recent run of Marxism of the Groucho kind on Turner Classic Movies. I have a few of the DVDs, but there is a certainly indescribable joy to stumbling across any one of the jewels from the attack on Fredonia, the state room scene to the crumbling walls of Casablanca.</p>
<p>I caught the bug early. The cream of the Marx Brothers lexicon is almost 75 years old and while some things are admittedly dated, who wouldn&#8217;t want Groucho&#8217;s spot on wit, Harpo&#8217;s joy or even Chico&#8217;s one handed piano playing (although the Man did have a way with a malaprop.)</p>

<p style="text-align:justify;">Barack Obama, bajo cuyo mando se encuentra el ejército más poderoso y mortífero de la Tierra, ha sido galardonado con el Premio Nobel de la Paz. Cuando concedan el Premio UNESCO de Fomento de  la Tolerancia y la No Violencia a Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, Presidente de Irán, se habrá producido, a ambos lados del Atlántico, un acontecimiento planetario: rendir homenaje a Groucho Marx.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Krajem 80-tih proslog veka u Sergio Bonelli Editore posao dobija mladi scenarista <strong>Tiziano Sclavi </strong>koji ubrzo kreira novi strip, tema koju je odabrao je bio horor,a glavnog junaka je nazvao <strong>Dylan Dog. </strong>Potpuno neočekivano, prve epizode postižu ogroman uspeh u Italiji i ubrzo strip postaje planetarno popularan,a s obzirom da se jos uvek izdaje i jedan od najdugovečnijih izdanja..</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5" title="dylan-dog" src="http://mladenmil.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/dylan-dog.jpg" alt="dylan-dog" width="337" height="480" />Dylan je samoproklamovani &#8221;istraživac noćnih mora&#8221;, bivši detektiv Scotland Yarda,vegetarijanac,nekadašnji alkoholicar i nepopravljivi romantik. Likom podseća na glumca<strong> Rupert Everetta</strong>,po čijem liku i jeste crtan<strong>.</strong> <strong>Groucho Marx</strong> je Dylanov pomoćnik i najbolji prijatelj. Njegov lik je preuzet od poznatog američkog glumca i komicara Groucho Marxa, jednog od urnebesne braće Marx. On se pojavljuje od prvog broja i omiljena zabava mu je pričanje glupih šala svakome ko ih je u prilici čuti. Tu je jos plejada ‚živopisnih likova,što stalnih,što prolaznih. Kroz strip se provlace mnoge književne,muzičke i kulturne reference,te tako Dylan svira Devill&#8217;s Trill(Giuseppe Tartini~<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nQ798THmR5Y" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nQ798THmR5Y</a>) na klarinetu,postoji epizoda pod nazivom Mefistofeles (direktna referenca na Fausta,što u neku ruku i jeste tema epizode) i sl.</p>
<p>Tokom godina menjali su se scenaristi i crtači i dok je crtez održavao visok nivo kvaliteta za scenario se to ne bi baš moglo reći,pa su od boljih svakako upamćeni tvorac Sclavi i Paula Barbato.</p>
<p>U svakom slučaju veoma zabavan strip,topla preporuka ljubiteljima žanra i medija uopste.</p>
