			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><iframe frameborder="0" height="369" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/Rjzr7TfY5Zw" width="500"></iframe><br />
A menos que vivas debajo de un árbol, si eres mexicano sabes que los candidatos a la presidencia de la república para el periodo 2012-2012 debatieron en televisión hace un par de días. He estado pensándolo mucho y, aunque no tengo aún decidido mi voto y no pienso anularlo tampoco, les comparto mi muy personal lista de ventajas y desventajas de cada candidato.  Para que tengan un marco de referencia de mis preferencias políticas, pueden leer <a href="http://www.chivacongelado.com/2006/08/post-post-electoral/">mis reacciones a la elección de 2006</a>, <a href="http://www.chivacongelado.com/2006/09/propuestas-politicas/">mi ideario político</a> y <a href="http://www.chivacongelado.com/2007/04/liberal-en-lo-economico-liberal-en-lo-social/">mis opiniones generales de cada partido</a>, que por desgracia no han hecho mucho en cambiar en los últimos 6 años.</p>
<p><strong>Josefina Vázquez Mota (PAN)</strong></p>
<p><em>Ventajas</em></p>
<ul>
<li>Proviene de un partido que en el gobierno se ha encargado de mantener las variables macroeconómicas de manera estable: reservas fuertes, tipo de cambio flotante pero estable, baja inflación, baja deuda externa.</li>
<li>Tiene experiencia en el gabinete y como líder de bancada en el congreso.</li>
<li>Sería la primera presidente mujer del país.</li>
</ul>
<p><em>Desventajas</em></p>
<ul>
<li>Su campaña revela una ineptitud abismal.</li>
<li>Ofrece seguir las mismas estrategias de la guerra contra el narco que no han funcionado.</li>
<li>Su partido hizo un &#8220;pacto con el diablo&#8221; con el PRI.  <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IbnTUAJx3Kg">Si Denisse Dresser dice que se necesitan &#8220;ciudadanos Frodo&#8221;</a>, ese fue el momento en el que, al llegar al poder Fox, su partido nos salió con &#8220;The ring is mine&#8221; en lugar de destruirlo.</li>
<li>Sus propuestas para los que vivimos en el extranjero se reducen al tema de la migración a Estados Unidos. ¿Y la posición del país en el mundo qué?</li>
</ul>
<p><iframe frameborder="0" height="369" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/3MdXobgjvpk" width="500"></iframe><br />
<strong></strong></p>
<p><strong>Andrés Manuel López Obrador</strong></p>
<p><em>Ventajas</em></p>
<ul>
<li>Su gestión en la Ciudad de México en realidad parece haber sido bastante buena.</li>
<li>Después de 7 años de campaña ha recorrido todo el país. Al menos se puede decir que realmente lo conoce.</li>
<li>Propone un <a href="http://www.regeneracion.mx/morena/325-organizacion/1828-gabinete-morena-2012-">gabinete de expertos</a> que (exceptuando uno o dos casos) no me parece tan malo.</li>
</ul>
<p><em>Desventajas</em></p>
<ul>
<li>Utiliza una retórica trasnochada de lucha de clases que después de 7 años ya tiene hartos a ciudadanos como a mí.</li>
<li>Algunas de sus ideas en materia económica me parecen lunáticas o hipócritas. Propone eliminar mono/oligopolios pero cuenta como su aliado a Carlos Slim: ¿&#8221;Voy a atacar los monopolios, exceptuando si son los de mis cuates&#8221;?. Propone<a href="http://eleconomista.com.mx/sociedad/2012/04/09/amlo-promete-cinco-refinerias"> también construir refinerías en miles de millones de dólares</a> , pero no entiendo para qué si México ya no produce tanto petróleo y además <a href="http://www.economist.com/blogs/gulliver/2012/05/delta-air-lines">comprarlas cuesta 150</a>?</li>
<li>Sus propuestas a los que vivimos en el extranjero se reducen al tema de la migración hacia Estados Unidos. Lo mismo que con Vázquez Mota, el resto como que no existimos y el lugar del país en el mundo le importa poco.</li>
</ul>
<p><iframe frameborder="0" height="369" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/sdoPPs1vwyY" width="500"></iframe><br />
<strong></strong></p>
<p><strong>Enrique Peña Nieto</strong></p>
<p><em>Ventajas</em></p>
<ul>
<li><em></em>Al parecer se rodea de un grupo de tecnócratas y operarios políticos hábiles que sacarían las reformas que el país requiere.</li>
<li>Tiene experiencia de gobierno.<em></em></li>
<li>Promete arreglar lo que necesita el país sin descomponer lo que está bien.</li>
</ul>
<p><em>Desventajas</em></p>
<ul>
<li>Sería el regreso del PRI.  Tal vez los más jóvenes no se acuerden pero el gobierno de 71 años del revolucionario institucional significó crisis recurrentes, devaluaciones, hiperinflación, <a href="http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Movimiento_estudiantil_de_1968_en_M%C3%A9xico#El_2_de_octubre_de_1968">represión</a>, corruptelas, cacicazgos, <a href="http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luis_Donaldo_Colosio">asesinatos de candidatos incómodos</a>, alianza con el narco, autoritarismo&#8230;</li>
<li>En lugar de erradicar al narco, se pactaría con él. Arregla los síntomas, pero no la enfermedad.</li>
<li>Aunque promete reafirmar el lugar del país en el mundo, su mensaje a los mexicanos en el exterior sólo nos &#8220;dora la píldora&#8221; sin realmente decir mucho.</li>
</ul>
<p><iframe frameborder="0" height="369" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/xmyVvrzrowA" width="500"></iframe></p>
<p><strong>Gabriel Quadri de la Torre</strong></p>
<p><em>Ventajas</em></p>
<ul>
<li>Propuestas liberales tanto en lo económico como en lo social con enfoque en desarrollo sustentable.</li>
<li>Experiencia en la iniciativa privada y en ONGs.</li>
<li>Su mensaje a los mexicanos en el extranjero incluye muchos puntos rescatables: habla del resto del mundo, no sólo de Estados Unidos y promueve la creación de un instituto cultural de México en el extranjero.</li>
</ul>
<p><iframe frameborder="0" height="369" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/zXgmYbZxa20" width="500"></iframe></p>
<p><em>Desventajas</em></p>
<ul>
<li>Es el títere de la novia de Chucky (<a href="http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elba_Esther_Gordillo">Elba Esther Gordillo Morales</a>) que tanto daño le ha hecho a la juventud mexicana y al país con su control del sindicato de maestros.  Si su partido gana el registro, miles de millones de pesos terminarán en el bolsillo de esa mafiosa.</li>
<li>No tiene experiencia ni muchos contactos en el Congreso.</li>
<li>Teniendo en cuenta cómo van las encuestas, un voto para él sería lo mismo que un voto para Enrique Peña Nieto y el regreso del PRI.</li>
</ul>
<p>Dicho esto, no te voy a decir por quién votar, sólo que es mejor votar por alguien que votar en blanco.  Si lo deseas puedes ver 3 sitios web de análisis de las propuestas de los candidatos:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://www.arenaelectoral.com/">Arena Electoral</a> (anti-Quadri)</li>
<li><a href="http://www.elmenospeor.com/">El Menos Peor</a> (anti-todos)</li>
<li><a href="http://porquienchingados.org.mx/">¿Por quién chingados voy a votar?</a> (Lópezobradorista)</li>
</ul>
<p>Si eso no es suficiente y tienes el tiempo, puedes leer las <a href="http://www.ife.org.mx/portal/site/ifev2/Plataformas_electorales/">plataformas electorales de cada partido en la página del IFE</a>.</p>
<p>Por último, para que te rías un rato después de tan pobres opciones, te dejo un video usando el meme del &#8220;Hitler Enojado&#8221; donde se entera de cómo estuvo el debate.</p>

Caught the Danish 2012 Oscars submission on TV last night.  As somebody living in that twilight zone between Nordic and Latin American culture I laughed out hard even at jokes the makers probably put there unintentionally.  Hilarious movie with a big heart.</p>
<p>I hope I never have to argue in Danish, it sounds really funny. <img src='http://www.chivacongelado.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

There&#8217;s loads of historic novels about Julius Caesar, William the Conqueror, Hernán Cortés, Francis Drake or Alexander the Great, but this is the first time I read a series of books about Genghis Khan, his progeny and the creation of the Mongol Empire. The style is riveting, the story very dramatic and the writer even clarifies in the appendices where he takes creative liberty with historical facts (after all, it&#8217;s a novel, not a chronicle).</p>
<p>Go read this now before it becomes a Hollywood movie.</p>

The team behind Café de Nopal has done it again. Now with a much larger space, a fixed menu and an alcohol sales license this place is always packed with food lovers, including the occasional Mexican resident in Helsinki.</p>
<p>Unfortunately it&#8217;s not open during lunch time and bookings are still difficult to get, but hey, you can&#8217;t have everything.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you are a parent, you have most probably encountered the huge need babies and toddlers have for routine, structured, predictable days.  We share most of the activities together with my wife, but I usually take care of the end-of-day routines.  Furthermore, I&#8217;ve taken to mark each step by singing a different song.</p>
<p>I use TuneIn for listening to internet radio stations.  Since most Mexican stations play the <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=frAh60X367A">national anthem</a> at midnight local time, I will usually sing it when I&#8217;m preparing him to go to daycare at 8 a.m. Finnish time. Think of it as a small scale <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MqdmiGig0oU">&#8220;honores a la bandera&#8221;</a>.</p>
<p>If I&#8217;m around when he takes his mid-day nap, I&#8217;ll sing him this:<br />
<iframe width="500" height="369" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/B6lbqdKC5NQ" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<p>To brush his teeth then we&#8217;ll come with this:<br />
<iframe width="500" height="369" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/tOy1tgjmOTU" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<p>When it&#8217;s time to go to bed it&#8217;s the turn of &#8220;La familia Telerín&#8221;:<br />
<iframe width="500" height="369" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/O-P_fJZSOFA" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<p>Putting his pajamas will be to the tune of &#8220;Juan Pestañas&#8221;<br />
<iframe width="500" height="284" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/q7az64LsjdQ" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<p>And in case that was not enough and he can&#8217;t sleep, then stronger measures are needed</p>
<div class="ab-player" data-boourl="http://audioboo.fm/boos/318868-cancion-de-cuna/embed"><a href="http://audioboo.fm/boos/318868-cancion-de-cuna">listen to &lsquo;Canción de cuna&rsquo; on Audioboo</a></div>

<p>Funnily enough, if by any chance I miss or mix any of the songs, he will be very, very annoyed.  I just hope he doesn&#8217;t grow up thinking life is an A<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4-L6rEm0rnY">ndrew Lloyd Weber musical</a> or a <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EdqLGTZd3NA">Pedro Infante movie</a>. <img src='http://www.chivacongelado.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
