The Rise and Fall and Rise of Zahi Hawass
archaeologicalnews:
The long-reigning king of Egyptian antiquities has been forced into exile—but he’s plotting a return
Zahi Hawass doesn’t like what he’s seeing. Clad in his familiar denim safari suit and wide-brimmed bush hat, the famed archaeologist is standing inside the burial vault of the Step Pyramid of Djoser, a six-tiered, lopsided mound of limestone blocks constructed nearly 5,000...

It doesn’t have to be tagged for tumblr savior to work.
Well then I’m doing something wrong.
But you’re a saint. If Earth ever unifies under one government, I’m nominating you for President of it.

schadenfreudessa ha contestado a tu publicación: I personally find it far more disappointing when I pay to see a film in theaters, but it turns out to be mediocre.
Nothing recently except for Iron Man 3, and to say that was disappointing would be like saying I’m not excited at all for Chicago. But in terms of disappointing movies, I definitely wish I had never paid to see The Dark Knight Rises.
I...

coeurdesfeuilles asked: For your 22nd birthday party, I was thinking about throwing a surprise birthday party that isn't really a surprise. You would walk into a dark room. We'd lock the door behind you and then flip on the light. All around you ... cats. Cats everywhere. After a few hours, we will let you out and maybe give you medical attention. It'll be the best birthday party because it will remind you...

1: Aladdin. 2: Why were you impressed?
I think the lyrics actually fit into the movie even better than the english version.
Essentially, the song is about how he’s as good or as skilled as a king (he’s the “king” or “rey” of all these skills) but no one sees...

I’ve spent my afternoon listening to spanish versions of disney songs while writing my Cervantes essay.
Mostly it’s weird, but some of these are really good.
“Todo un hombre haré de ti” and “Belle” especially.
Edit: The beast has the best voice.

I should show that sign to my cat.
It’s a good sign for cats. Or at least, for cats that read. I get the impression, though, that if a cat read that sign, he/she would chew on the plant to be contrary.

Six pages on the Tarraco amphitheatre in spanish and I still have two sections left. I don’t even know how long or detailed this paper is supposed to be, so chances are I am overdoing it.
It’s 11 o’clock. I just want to go to bed.

Europe’s Hypocritical History of Cannibalism
archaeologicalnews:
From prehistory to the present with many episodes in between, the region has a surprisingly meaty history of humans eating humans
In 2001, a lonely computer technician living in the countryside in Northern Germany advertised online for a well-built man willing to participate in a mutually satisfying sexual act. Armin Meiwes’ notice was similar to many others on the...

My bus from Cardiff to London left late, so I’m a bit short on time to get on my flight back to Madrid. If I miss it, let it be known that it is the fault of the National Express bus company.

Notes from Liverpool
I like Liverpool. The museums are free, there are lots of cute cafes, the mix of architectural styles is interesting, and the accents are bizzare.
It’s a good place.

It’s true. Last night I went to bed wearing wool socks, sweats under my pajama pants, a shirt, and two sweatshirts. It was just enough.
