Space City Rock (New Interviews & Reviews Up!)'s Blurbs
About me:
Welcome to the official MySpace presence of the venerable, crotchety H-town music-and-other-things e-zine, Space City Rock, run (mostly) by a guy named Jeremy.
For those who don't know anything about us, we've been posting opinionated crap online (and occasionally off, in our long-forgotten print incarnation) about music, movies, comics, art, books, and anything else we feel like writing about, all the while trying to keep focused on the sweaty, smoggy town we call home. We've been doing this for a while now (since, oh, about 1996), and although the landscape's changed a bit in recent years, this whole "music" thing is still pretty entertaining, and we're still writing about it.
This page is meant to be a link from our Website to all the good music-loving/music-making people out there in the MySpace world. The bulk of our content is on the actual site, but we'll be posting updates & such over here to keep folks informed. (You can also join our mailing list to keep up on what's going on.) Keep the rock power alive, kids...
-Hay datos que no aparecen en ninguna nota relativa a la epidemia: no se confirma muerte por influenza, los nombres de los fallecidos, los lugares donde ha ocurrido, desde cuando, sus edades y sexo...parece que para las autoridades o para los reporteros son solo muertos..¿realmente existen?
-Tapabocas: Estos pedazos de tela que NO SIRVEN para filtrar un virus, ya que su tamaño oscila en las decenas y centenas de nanómetros, las fibras de los cubrebocas tienen mayores espacios, permitiendo el paso libre del virus. Se necesitaría trajes especiales para evitar contagios.
Aparte tienen una vida util de 30 minutos a dos horas, ¿que va a pasar con los usados?, ¿cuantos se necesitan?
La ansiedad ocasionada por el miedo deprime el sistema inmunológico y con esto bajan las defensas (También cuidado con los frentes frios o cambios de temperatura).
