What's new... with Caesar?

In italiano, questa volta, in onore della sua terra natale, Roma.
Giulio Cesare era teso, stanco e ammalato gli ultimi anni prima della morte, lo rivela una statua datante 2051 anni trovata nel letto del fiume Rodano in Francia, vicono ad Arles. Come viene segnalato dalle riviste scientifiche che se ne sono interessate, “E’ un’opera sconvolgente per il realismo di questo ritratto di Cesare, dove traspaiono la sua immensa stanchezza, ma anche la sua clementia, cioè l’umanità di chi sapeva perdonare”(Scientific American).
Calvizie, rughe di espressione e di età, sorriso ironico-amaro… sono tutti segni che L:Long ha individuato come sintomi di un malessere interiore, poiché era, pare, stanco della vita.
Era stato un generale (imperator) iperattivo, ma gli ultimi cinque durissimi anni della sua vita hanno plasmato il suo volto in una maschera di dittatore stanco (Pour la Recherche).

Ed io che credevo fosse un super-uomo, tenace, potente, freddo… come ce lo mostrano le statue recenti disseminate in Italia…

Ci penso… era solo un uomo, geniale, ma sempre e solo un essere umano, come noi, oggi, costretti ad una vita iperattiva che ci stressa e ci stanca…

Mi è molto più vicino e simpatico adesso!

What's new... with oxygen?

Do we all know that under us there is a deep mantle of silicon and oxygen, from 70 kms to 2900 kms, very close to the core? Well I knew that plants were at the origin of our oxygen, but at this depth there are no plants! Where does it come from? Did we ask and even try to find the solution? Well, the comet that may have struck earth millions of years ago, leaving a deep hole under India (still present) must have lightened the core of the earth, with its oxygen...
So, why don't we try to find a way to use it? There must be millions and millions of molecules, and even re-creating daily!!!

What do you think of this weird news?

Any suggestions might be the best ones!!! Just try!

what's new...with the moon?

The front side on the moon is just a bit... radioactive; much more than the dark side!
That's what we learn from the scientific centers: there is a high presence of Thorium on the front side and at this distance we should not be in danger; however everybody knows that during full-moon days too many people feel a bit "different", I mean, nervous, sad, energetic, or even too "electric", as it was told in the past for the people transformed in wolves, and witches getting crazy...
Well I never could think it was just because of the sea tides, it was so illogical. Now I can easily suppose that the light of the sun reflecting the front side of the moon, might bring to the earth thousands of particules of thorium that hit us and transformes our physical and thus psychological stability.

What do you think about it?

Don't be afraid, of course I could be a whitch, but there's no full-moon at the moment, so there's no danger to give your opinion...!
