El IV Reich?
En pocas ocasiones se han llegado a mostrar con tanta intensidad los dolores, alegrías e inquietudes interiores de una persona, a través de un instrumento musical, como lo hizo John Coltrane. El saxofón tenor y el soprano vibraron con tanta fuerza, cuando él los tocaba, que crearon algunos de los momentos más intensos y emocionantes de la Historia del Jazz.

The final settlement legislation denied tribes’ right to use the reservoir shoreline for grazing, hunting, fishing or other purposes, including irrigation development and royalty rights on all subsurface minerals within the reservoir area.
After the dam was constructed, the three tribes were scattered, their communities and extended families flung to different shores of the 200-mile-long Lake Sakakawea.

El niño Onfim ha tenido una magnífica forma de pasar a la posteridad... Me encanta!
Back in the 13th century (the writings are estimated to date from 1234 to 1268) a 6/7 year old boy named Onfim, who lived in Veliky Novgorod, left his notes and school assignments scratched on birch bark. These have survived to this day and are written in the old Novgorod dialect. They consist of letters, syllables and drawings of battle scenes, knights, horses, arrows and himself with his teacher. These are clearly school assignments that Onfim was practising.
