El último día de Salvador Allende en la mirada de Fidel Castro
2008-06-25 18:56:00
El líder de la revolución cubana, Fidel Castro, revive, en un testimonio publicado en 1974, el último combate del presidente Salvador Allende antes de que fuera víctima del golpe fascista que acabó con su gobierno democrático e impuso la dictadura en Chile. En el texto, que forma parte del libro Grandes Alamedas: El combate del presidente Allende, de Jorge Timossi, Fidel realiza un emotivo relato de lo que fue el último día del primer presidente socialista de Chile. El líder cubano, quien fuera un cercano amigo de Allende, refleja, paso a paso, cómo el ex mandatario chileno vive la traición de los militares, pero al mismo tiempo luchan junto a él un grupo de civiles, carabineros y policías democráticos, quienes protegieron con su vida el heroico gesto de un presidente que prefirió su propia inmolación antes que rendirse y entregar a criminales el poder que el pueblo le dió por mandato soberano. A continuación el texto íntegro. Testimonio de Fidel Castro Nosotros nos vamos a refe...

Bush Prepares for Castro Funeral
2008-06-07 21:00:00
  President Bush prepares to go to Fidel Castro's funeral Packing himself a sombrero and planning to make his famous Texas style tacos, President Bush made preparations to go to Castro's funeral. "I think it will be really neato," said the President. "We will have a fiesta, but a sad one, but still a good one." Bush claimed. The announcement came as a shock to White House staffers who were under the impression that Bush did not know who Castro was. "This is just the sort of thing we usually have to deal with in the N.F.L's off season," said a very distressed Bush handler.  Bush seems to be under the impression that Castro was a big supporter in the War on terror and plans to present his widow a brand new "Cricket" cell phone.  (Blackdog Fact #417, President Bush plans on becomeing the new host of  The Price is Right After, he  leaves office)

Carrie Underwood “Most Popular,” Jason Castro “Most Overrated”
2008-05-24 06:08:00
Share on StumbleUpon: According to a recent poll, Carrie Underwood was voted the all-time most popular American Idol winner, grabbing 54 percent of the vote to beat out second-place finisher Kelly Clarkson. The poll also focused on the current season of AI, which will wrap up this week. If you’re looking at this poll to predict this season’s American Idol winner, you’re out of luck: both David Archuleta’s version of “Imagine” and David Cook’s Chris Cornell-ified cover of “Billie Jean” tied for the season’s best performance with 35 percent of the vote. On the flip side, Jason Castro’s half-baked version of Bob Dylan’s “Mr. Tambourine Man” was voted the season’s worst performance, while the recently dismissed Castro also won the award for this season’s “Most Overrated Contestant.” Michael Johns was voted losing contestant most likely to still have a successful career, and a whopping 63 percent felt that Idol contestants with a previous record contract (a la Carly Smithson) should not ...
Indonesia to issue Castro, Che Guevara stamps
2008-05-23 12:16:00
Indonesia will issue stamps depicting revolutionaries Fidel Castro and Che Guevara to commemorate a visit made by the Southeast Asian nation's founding president to Cuba 48 years ago. One edition of the stamps, which will be released next week, shows then president Castro holding a traditional Indonesian dagger as his visiting counterpart, Sukarno, looked on during a meeting in 1960 in Havana. Another features Argentine-born Ernesto "Che" Guevara, who in 1956 joined Castro in Cuba to overthrow the government of General Fulgencio Batista, sitting next to Sukarno. "This is part of the celebration of good relations between Indonesia and Cuba," said Gatot Dewa Broto, a spokesman at Indonesia's directorate general of post and telecommunications.Indonesia News Blog: http://indosnesos.blogspot.com-

Jason Castro Eliminated On American Idol!
2008-05-08 16:18:00
My boyfriend Jason Castro, who happens to be from my very own Dallas, Texas, got booted off last night at American Idol's elimination round. I'll be honest though. He was good in past performances, but I wasn't crazy about his "I Shot the Sheriff" version. That's one of the classic songs by Bob Marley that I like by the way, but his own rendition didn't really do justice to the classic-ness of this song. Oh well... I do love the guy for his cuteness and laid-backness. I saw him on my local Fox TV news this morning and he's so like, "Yeah, whatever", when asked if he was okay being eliminated. He's just so adorable! :)Alright now, here's a YouTube video of his elimination last night. Bye, bye Jason! Hope to see you around even after Idol. :)
Jason Castro Gets His Wish

As I sit here listening to Jason Castro’s incredibly addictive version of “Over the Rainbow,” I’m not going to say Jason Casto isn’t talented, but I think even the most ardent Castro supporter [and yes, I’m talking to you frequent TV Addict reader ‘Common Sense’] would have to agree that nobody was happier with last night’s AMERICAN IDOL results than Jason Castro himself. Yet with Jason’s exit, here’s where things get really interesting. Who do Jason’s supporters flock to next? Should Syesha bother showing up next week? And most importantly, what will you miss more — Jason’s dreamy hair, or his talent?

'I would've liked to go farther, but I don't think I could handle it,' dreadlocked singer says.By Katie Byrne Jason Castro Photo: Fox There are always a few contestants we don't hear a peep from during the audition rounds or Hollywood week, and then they disappear before the top 12. But Jason Castro was different. He did his cheesy top-24 dance, dreads flailing about, and we knew "Idol" would never be the same. And it won't be. The 20-year-old from Rockwall, Texas, brought a new audience of "dread-heads" to the show with his goofy demeanor and offbeat song choices. But his unexpectedly long journey on the show came to an end after his forgotten lyrics and odd arrangements during Rock and Roll Hall of Fame night. We caught up with the unique castoff to see how bad he really wanted to win, what he thought of Paula Abdul's misstep last week and why he was relieved to be going home. Q: Simon suggested after the results show Wednesday that you had messed up your lyrics...

Random Musings: Jason Castro, THE BIG BANG Theme, Download DEXTER
2008-05-07 15:41:00
Following last night’s installment of AMERICAN IDOL, two things are abundantly clear. For one, cool hair does not equate to talent. And more importantly, both of Jason Castro’s ridiculously amateurish performances were a cry for help. So much so that we’re pretty sure Castro has already heeded Simon’s advice and, “packed his suitcase,” at least emotionally. Here’s hoping America makes it happen. Aside from Jim Parsons’ Emmy—worthy portrayal of Sheldon, one of the highlights of THE BIG BANG THEORY is the incredibly catchy theme song courtesy of Canada’s own Barenaked Ladies. So imagine my glee when I learned that ‘The Big Bang Theory Theme’ is actually available on iTunes. Which means for a mere 99¢ you too can experience a really catchy albeit brief one minute and forty-five second history of the world. But fair warning, you’ll be uttering the words, “it all started with a big bang” for the rest...

Castro inching closer to returning -- Wooten cut
2008-05-06 15:29:00
I'm very skeptical of Ramon Castro, don't get me wrong he's a very good back-up catcher but he is a constant injury concern. Castro entered camp in very good shape this year compared to his recent past and still injured his hamstring. It seems like every time we get a positive report on him it's followed a day or two later with a set-back. Last night Castro caught a complete game and barring a set back could be schedule to join the team when they return to Shea.Ramon Castro caught nine innings for Class-A St. Lucie last night. He went 1-for-4 with a homer in a win over Lakeland. It was the first time Castro had caught a full game since his rehab stint began. source Star Ledger In other catching news veteran catcher Shawn Wooten was cut to make room in New Orleans for Molina when he was sent down. 36 y/o right handed catcher who also plays 1B and 3B, in five partial major league seasons has compiled lifetime BA of .272.
