In the previous post this one known case in the company they work: a man who was a little sick marotte , constantly called for consultations absurd. Well here continue with the collection records of those calls, which are recorded also some private opinions of the TSR that attending to this gentleman (especially in the last!).
1) Are you concerned by the light of remote control. Want to turn and I'm afraid of the justice and police .

3) Customer says that someone will watch from the decoder and that the person operating the controls to spy wrong because you turn off the computer and leave it on a channel that was not looking. Talk about a mafia that controls everything and believes the police is involved.

10) The customer wrote a few days ago in his diary (a diary with the remote control at the decoder ) who believed that Britney Spears was pregnant. Now advertised on TV really is pregnant. The customer thinks he has paranormal powers .
11) HUY ... ME WANT TO DIE! RIAL SAYS CHANNEL 2 AND THE SPY .
Pues esta es la nueva aventura, en la cual me va a compañar mi good friend (and great artist) Sergio Sandoval to inks. The cover you can see in this post is Lee Bermejo. The truth is that I in good company! When you can, go hang ink pencils and stuff.
never stale as yesterday so willingly . As I said, I was invited to participate in the San Borondón Chronicles of Canary Radio The Autonomic driven by Jose Gregorio Gonzalez to talk about Shadow of Pranthas and fantasy literature in general. The program began at 23:00 h but I went at about 23:25 h, sharing David Eileen table, all a connoisseur of fantastic literature, which gave the perfect counterpoint. It was a very pleasant experience and I had a most enjoyable time. The only negative was the absence of the other guest of the evening, Victor Conde, who could not attend and we were eager to hear first hand their work Lifes.
This link can escucharel full program, but if you want to go directly to me, jump up to the minute 26. Interview
But not just any name, any operator who will attend was stunned. In the call center of the television company that he called it was a celebrity. Not because someone recognized beyond those telephone lines, but a history of hilarious calls, in the end, when his brother gave cancel the service, confirm suspicions: the guy was really crazy.
Here are some of the most curious records of the hundreds that exist in this customer's account (onamatopeyas and punctuation remain as the original, even those who are totally informal):
1) is reported to view programming on the TV screen to press the Guide button on the remote. The client says you do not agree because you spend so light.
2) are advised to speak with the director of the company. Refer to want to contact the U.S. police and FBI. Please be advised that it is not possible.
3) The customer declares to have problems with the image and the screen suddenly goes black. Says it is not a technical problem or electrical energy, but it is a parapsychological phenomenon.
4) Client consultation on the latitude and longitude information contained in the decoder. Explained that only is a guide. You understand and stop thinking it is for secrets spy.
5) you acknowledge that the last 90 days he is writing his life story in the decoder (with remote). Friday 21 assumes that the police will take him and wants to leave his life recorded for the technician of the company is aware.
6) angry customer says Telefe channel viewed through the TV and copy everything he says including the sentences he writes with the remote. Please be advised that the decoder has no direct connection with this channel and does not perform these operations.
7) Client angry that states that disappeared yesterday channel 208, at the request of Telefe channel, because it was on that channel in which he wrote every day the story of his life is very concerned because he fears losing his history. It is reported that the channel is no longer available.
8) The customer wants to spell out the Fox Sports channel robs journalists to T & C Customer wants our company to make the appropriate report, it is not possible that these people are in the channel improvised. Ask the police to monitor your TV, and he wants to denounce what is happening. Pressures do not mind traveling in the event that the fault is not in your favor!
9) The active holder packs of films. Is happy because he says he will be able to enter the films to be hacked Internet in the war between China and the U.S..
10) Customer requests programmed remote control. He does not want to try another code other than 10037, it says that if he wants that code is not what we need to change and so must work. Says the boss up there doing weird things with the antenna but he tries not to worry.
Imaginamálaga 2009. Author Disclosure Vilches Fantasy Award for The First Book Jade Flower Envoy. En Punto Radio Ninema
Comic The Chamber held its V Malaga the last edition on October 21-25. I was fortunate enough to attend as a guest and to collect the prize in Fantastic Literature Author Disclosure by the 1st volume of the Jade Flower Saga, the envoy.

Here you leave the interview we made this morning on the Agenda Cultural Personalities program Sevilla, chain Punto Radio. We would like to thank Isabel García and Ricard Martí your interest in the novel and the opportunity they have given us to present Ninema, unnamed sorceress to all listeners.
1. K is a law: The new law is a claim of communication specialists since 1982, the return to democracy. The current bill was agreed in forums across the country in which participated Ong 's, union organizations, cultural organizations, communities of indigenous people, students and teachers from universities national as well as also small and medium entrepreneurs communication industry.
2. It's a gag law: The new law places restrictions on freedom of expression and censorship are not enabled. The previous law enacted by the military censorship allowed for the contents to establish a threat to the homeland (a very broad concept.)
3. The Act change just after the December 10, when lawmakers take the new : Impossible. The legislative policy indicates that no law can be reviewed again by Congress until a year after fishing.
4. The law was approved unchanged: changes were made to the law in the House of Representatives (but not in Senate). Basically, he removed the item that allowed that might form a phone package telephone-cable-TV (Triple Play), one of the most critical points had received.
5. All media will be controlled by Kirchner : the law stipulates that 33% of the licenses will be for commercial entities, another 33% for the state (national or provincial), and the remaining 33% for non-profit associations profit.
6 .- This Act gives more power to Kirchner on the media: With the current Comfer was operated by a civilian authority directly executive power (because the original law states that it must be supervised by three commanders of the FF . AA), the Kirchner could do whatever they want without difficulty. The new law sets A monitoring committee with government forces and opposition as well.
7 .- review licenses every two years: only to adapt the technology to changes in the way of analog to digital. This implies that can not be removed licenses every two years as critics like to suggest the article.
8 .- The media law is not important, there are more urgent things: media law is important and can be considered very urgent, because, as explained in point 6, the rules allowed regia censorship.
9 .- The law will make many people use because they are closed channels as TN : The current law encourages the creation of more resources, so the work is multiplied. Channels like TN (ie within a corporate group channel-Clarin, who owns a cable operator - Multichannel - Cablevision -) should converted into local signals. That will encourage the emergence of more local channels to work for the people of the provinces and regional news.

Interview with Deputy Agustin Rossi, head of the bed of the Front for Victory. (Made as part of a work for the UBA, on 24/08)
Agustín Rossi's office, on the third floor of Congress, is austere. On the desktop of deputy head of the caucus of the ruling Front for Victory , there are several folders and papers, a mate and a computer. Behind him is a bookshelf with various books and a portrait showing him with President Cristina Kirchner and Néstor Kirchner.
Why not include the print media in the bill Audiovisual Communication that drives the government?
Because they are different things although people confused by the whole confrontation with Clarin. Our intention now is to move forward with this law. Previously, those who owned print media could not have an air channel, that no longer exists and we're not going to change, but in other countries if, for example, the New York Times United States can not have TV channels those populations in which the paper circulates.
Why not establish a similar law in Argentina?
We
step by step, the new communications law that fundamentally seeks to avoid what happened with football, that the originator of the content is the same as the spread because it causes a dominant and monopolistic position that obstructs possibility of a plural and democratic communication. It is intended that the owner of a cable operator can not have an air channel or more than a sign of that cable. Also that no group holds over 35 per cent stake so as not to be dominant.
What do you think of the criticism voiced by sections of the church through the bishop Randrazzi which implied that the state is to monopolize the means of the new law?
The project recognizes a 21-point basis has been agreed with the coalition for a democratic communication, in which participated Argentina Federation of Community Broadcasters , and many other social organizations and unions. The Catholic Church also participated in this project and even when the mobilization was accompanied symbolically income from the project to the congress were representatives of the church. Now do not object to the substance of the law but argue that should be debated by Congress after December 10, a position that we do not share: that position is more related to politics or the opportunity that the merits. We believe that this is not a new issue for democracy or for political Argentina Argentina: they began to discuss the need for a new broadcasting law since the beginning of the return to democracy, there was always initiatives, there were always projects, including Alliance at the time. This project we are looking to be presented in March, I put the president, continued with discussion forums, citizens across the country which received initiatives, proposals were systematized, and finally with the amendments we sent to parliament. I think that we are able to treat before 10 December.
Are you willing to make changes if asked?
If any law is feasible modifications. For the blocks that have already raised an antagonistic position makes no sense to pay attention because they do not really want the law in question, discuss the idea further below is an excuse for the law are never treated. There are other blocks that have expressed positive expectations regarding the law and we will analyze each of the proposals that we make.
How do you think will be the debate of the bill in Congress?
appear in the debate also historical and political positions of multimedia that has its share of legitimacy because the owners of a commercial business with a dominant market position would have only to 35 percent of that market and logically develops resistance. What happens is that legislators can not defend the interests of the companies but we must defend the general interests of the Argentines.
Do you think there will be pressure on lawmakers to not pass the law?
I hope not, but no one is exempt. I hope you have ability to see into the future, reflect the opposition because tomorrow may be the ruling party. It is not good for Argentina is that the widespread belief that but agreed with the multimedia you can not be president of Argentina. It a limitation for democracy.
There are journalists who have said that "monopolies are a verse" and that the government is "unrealistic." How would you respond to these criticisms?
monopolies exist great strength and have strong interests: this is reality. So in all countries of the world there are antitrust laws and is an issue that at some point we should try in Argentina. Now there is an opportunity to discuss it and take it forward, you have to stand here and look towards the future.
Do you think the choice of Japanese digital TV standard the government opens the way to ensure greater access to public TV?
TV Going from digital to analog means that for each of the air channels that exist today in the Argentina may have three air channels: the possibility of access to public TV will be higher. So we do not review leave, but the technical review every two years to get evaluated as it evolves in the passage from analogue to digital.
audiovisual media law talks about access to new communication technologies and at the same time there is a bill to increase the VAT on electronic items do you think you fall in contradiction?
can be a quick look. The truth is that we have an agreement in Mercosur that we have two areas of investment promotion, one in Manaus and the other in Tierra del Fuego, and the benefits for investment in Manaus were larger so there were all investors. What we are trying to balance because we need to sustain the social situation in Tierra del Fuego, but do not want that harm domestic manufacturers on the continent, so the original project to remove an article that the increase does not reach the laptops and netbooks that manufactured in the interior. What is missing from the Argentina ? As we have a law that promotes the industry need another software that promotes the electronics industry because it has a high added value and can boost the volume of exports. But if they can get more for a phone I do not think that has an impact on sales.
There is a law to promote the use of free software in state agencies, "when will this law?
The problem is that those state activities that require security and confidentiality conditions free software does not. But state activities involving communication with the city, you can work with free software. In general, all over the world working with the idea of \u200b\u200bchoosing between two options. It has to move in this direction ... There's also a whole discussion because it is true that free software allows greater access of citizenship but is also true that private companies are the most technologically advanced and created to look for some kind of balance.
they were also "the law of higher education?
I do not think that this year. Since the government began working with the Technical Education Act, the national education law, the law sex education and education funding bill, were the four laws, and we have the law on higher education, where a important issue is the administration of universities and houses of study, must come together to work in this regard. Progress was made in the commission, we present a project as a block, and the current minister (who was the former Deputy Minister) requested time to analyze, so it is likely to remain for the next year.
And the universal mapping project?
That is an issue. We have 12 million children under 18 years in Argentina. Six million have some type of coverage, because their parents paid a family wage or are children of workers receiving more than 4800 dollars, net earnings, the other six million is nearly three and a half million are achieved by either social policies of the Ministry of Social Development: Family plan (most important), plan heads and heads of household, the mother board for more than seven children, the pension for disabled children. We have two and a half million who are not reached by any social policy Who are they? The children of temporary workers, a gardener, a painter ... that kind of trades, and a sector that is the core of the poverty that we have not reached some of these guys are not even documented only have birth certificates, the certificate live birth, q seems to me after five years of growing at Chinese rates (nine, ten percent per year) is promoting a policy that addresses this problem, I would fix first those 2.5 million uninsured children ... an easy calculation: if everyone paid 130 pesos per month, which is an allowance for an employee, you need 5 billion pesos per year, the budget of the mystery of social development is currently 10 million and we must think about the engineering of the project, where would they get the resources.
Is not this thought even where resources would come?
There are different types of proposals: tax financial income, with two possible ways: a percentage, 1 or 2% for each deposit is made, collect income taxes, reallocate items of this area, an excise tax on colas which are exempted from the year 1997. But we must move forward, it is not easy, because that poverty housing in the suburbs of major cities Buenos Aires, Rosario and Cordoba and the NEA-NOA (Misiones, Corrientes, Chaco, Formosa, Catamarca, Jujuy, Santiago del Estero , La Rioja) ... many. 2, 5 million without coverage are many.
What do you think are the subjects of the ruling pending with respect to rights human?
I do not know if there are many, I think they did a lot. Human rights policy come a long way, the last thing we did last year is to pass the law of non-violence, an important issue, which is also the poorest social sectors. I do not know if there is a pending matter, the government has worked hard on this.
Do you think the different debates that took place recently increased the visibility of Congress publicly?
Yes, increase much, the truth is that the first two years as president of block I was seemed to not matter much ... they said "always wins all the votes the ruling party", and now this idea that no one knows who wins, this idea of \u200b\u200bvoting sport generates more interest. The 125, the debate on Aerolineas Argentinas, the nationalization of the administrators, the budget last year, overtaking the election, the delegated powers, it seems that society pays more attention to Congress. It is also true as an Italian political scientist says, Bobbio, one of the problems which has the consensus is that dissent sells more When you pick a law by consensus does not know anyone, when there is dissent and there is a vote and a scenario that generates tension there appears the public eye.
How do you imagine the Congress after December 10, there will be dialogue with the opposition?
Ideally then, if she can or can not no longer depends only on the ruling. It is clear that in the new Congress legislative initiatives will be shared. Opposition attempt to impose an agenda, we will try to hold another, but ideally it would look more compact than the consensus, it will be after December 10th.
you continue to be the Leader of the Bloc after 10 December?
Each year when the legislative session ends ... I ask the president (and did before with President Kirchner), if you agree with me go ahead and I reached a consensus with the members ... I would like indeed, four years ago and I'm here and tme would continue but will depend primarily on the president. The presidency of the ruling bloc and more on new stage comes, must have a lot sync with the Executive, working closely with the chief of staff and the president. We will not have a majority, but we will be a strong first minority.
How a minority with which blocks can ally believed to promote projects to achieve common?
I think that depends on each of the issues we have been working on some important issues such as the nationalization of Aerolineas Argentinas, or some blocks AFJP generically called "center-left blocks, but also made agreements with provincial parties and we permanent alliances with some fronts such as the Civic Front for Santiago del Estero ... I think these agreements will be no issue by issue.
Front for Victory "will open primaries to select the candidate for 2011?
are in the midst of a political dialogue, and one of the themes is the electoral reform, one of the proposals is that there is in every game open primaries, simultaneous and binding, there is an obligation of citizens to participate in internal processes of selection of candidates. If so, surely in the PJ and all parties go through that process.
In rosary recently had an experience that won primaries in force. Will follow that model?
The president took the Santa Fe model ... we have candidate selection and election of officers, probes parties. In the traditional system the choice of candidates was in charge of the party members vote by Congress or by the charter, the other system is the law of slogans, candidates and election of officers was in a single election for a candidate votabas but for a party but that party votes totaled and he could win. Santa Fe remains the election of officers and candidates separately but gave 100% participation of the population, that gives some legitimacy, to be seen whether the national level is possible. The choice Rosario was welcome because the city and the province are not easy for our force, after conflicts with the field even less, and allowed us to make a vote that was very close but we claim and guarantee my re-election and posicionaramos us as a force.
Hi all: What a day this past Saturday! I had the great pleasure of being invited by the library The Kiosk for a day signing copies of The Shadow Pranthas and although I got no great expectations about what might happen, the situation overshot exceeded. Were many people who came to where I was to inquire about the book and had the details of buying a copy and, of course, be signed. I can not be more satisfied with the experience ...
From here I want to thank the efforts of the library The Kiosk to make this possible and develop, as did so great getting to port. I hope to repeat on future occasions. Pranthas The Shadow is because their way steadily waiting to see the light of the second book in the series of Árgoht, which I just need to finalize some minor details ...
This is an illustration I've done in collaboration with my colleague Dani Vendrell, a master of digital illustration, a member of Ikari Studio, which has been held to give color (I recommend you throw a glance at his blog by clicking on its name). It is a omenaje a PC strategy game of 1997, Starcraft , who has served as test of teamwork.
Below you can see the process of creating this illustration using ink version.
Here is page 4 of the sequence of Superman. This is a script that I improvised, I call "Red Kryptonite." Since only pages in pencil is not appreciated, but the idea is that the meteor that is about to land, until it collides with Superman, is composed of red kryptonite. Lately there kryptonite in every color, and the effect that each causes Superman changes depending on the writer. I like the idea that red kryptonite makes him bad, as you will see on the pages. Hala, I've written too much to teach one page!
