Colombia´s Kidnapping Industry

Colombia´s Kidnapping Industry

Autor: Lia Posada

Número de Páginas: 84

Colombia has been plagued by communist subver-sive movements for more than four decades. This problem was compounded by the growth of powerful drug cartels two decades ago. The Colombian drug cartels came to dominate the cocaine markets worldwide and have lately branched out to the production of opium based products. The cartels reacted vigorously, unconstrained by legal niceties. They are still in conflict in areas of the country where the drug barons invest in prime cattle raising land. But they have entered into an uneasy alliance in coca growing areas. Initially in these remote areas, the guerrillas were content to "tax" growth and processing but they eventually became involved in the business directly. This involvement greatly increased the guerrilla groups' income. Their kidnapping activity did not diminish. As a matter of fact, kidnap victims can be held with impunity in these areas of coca growing activity. The Colombian conflict is not well understood in the United States or Europe. Scholars, politicians and the general public in the developed world are subjected to the propaganda of the left which portrays the Colombian subversive movements, including their armed...

Who was that guy? The file portrays a frustrated and bitter intellectual; one more like many others, except for his evident capacity to assume dangerous attitudes. However, the character who had kidnapped Marques was, without a doubt, a professional, and not only in terms of literature. The whole kidnap operation seemed to be executed by someone extremely familiar with violence and simulation. Like the real, imminent danger threatening the king in a chess game, the Professor devises an intricate plan to regain his son, in an almost suicidal attempt to win the game against one of the best players of his kind. His contender, furious, puts into practice his usual tactics, successful so many times in the past. With the characteristic coldness of an individual whose actions are conceived through pain, this ingenious man conceives a near-impossible plan. Will he, an academic man of language, be able to defeat the giant, hoping for the same luck that David enjoyed when facing Goliath, well-equipped with his immense power?"

Esa tarde una maestra gritó: ¡Gorilas en el techo! Karen no sabía si echarse a llorar o a correr; tampoco sabía que su vida estaba a punto de desmoronarse como migajitas de pan. Al poco tiempo sus papás anunciaron que la familia se mudaba. ¿Quéeeee? Se le pararon los pelos de punta. Dejar la escuela, amigas, abuelos y a su querida Guatemala era mucho peor que si diez simios le hubieran brincado encima. Pero, la verdadera tragedia de Karen empieza cuando llega a otro país que ni siquiera ubica en el mapa, a miles de kilómetros del suyo, con un idioma del que no entiende ni papa y, por si fuera poco, con compañeros nuevos que la miran como a un bicho raro. Ella tiene de dos: encerrarse en su caparazón o salir y exprimentar los limones que la vida le ofrece. Con un lenguaje espontáneo, agudo, divertido y ágil la protagonista nos cuenta sus venturas y desventuras para adaptarse a Israel y a su entorno violento, pues, aunque parezca chiste, huyen de Guatemala por la violencia y llegan a un país en guerra. Sin embargo, Karen también descubrirá la sorpresa del primer beso, el poder de la amistad y lo maravillosa que puede ser la vida, aunque ésta no siempre esté exenta...

Los mellizos Templeton tienen una idea

Autor: Ellis Weiner

Número de Páginas: 223

"Pongamos que hay unos mellizos, un chico y una chica de doce años, que se llaman (respectivamente) John y Abigail Templeton. Digamos que John es pragmático y toca la batería, y que Abigail es más dada a la teoría y le gusta resolver intrincados crucigramas. iImaginemos también que su padre es un inventor ilustre, aunque a veces un poco despistadillo. Supongamos, además, que otros mellizos -ya mayores-, llamados Tom T. Timmy y Tim T. Timmy, han secuestrado a los mellizos Templeton y a su Ridículo Perro para conseguir que el padre les ceda uno de sus presuntamente geniales inventos. Sí, he dicho secuestrado. ¿No te pica el gusanillo? Anda ya, ¡seguro que sí! Pues mira, estás de suerte, porque este es el primer libro de toda una serie que es perfecta para chicos y chicas listos, inteligentes y divertidos (exactamente como los mellizos Templeton) a quienes les guste leer historias de aventuras (¡¿y a quién no?!)."--Agapea.
