The tragic fates of "Arnold", "Willis" and "Kimberly"
Despite the huge success of the series American Black & White (Diff'rent Strokes) in the late '70s and early '80s, the protagonists seem to suffer more than enjoying the time. The luck did not accompany Dana Plato, who died in 1999, or Todd Bridges, addicted to drugs and alcohol. Now, with the death of Gary Coleman, seems to close the tragic circle accompanied for more than two decades.
In the late '70s, the series starring three young, who embodied the children of a millionaire who lived New York, rose to fame for having as topic the integration of blacks and whites in the same family.
But the boys, with their angelic faces, were far from living a life as idyllic as in the television series. Dana Plato, who played Kimberly, the biological daughter of Mr. Drummond, had to leave the series after six seasons of success, to get pregnant.
In 1991 he was arrested for robbing a video store in Las Vegas and a year later was convicted of falsifying a prescription for a thousand doses of Valium. Despite having received a month in jail and five other parole, Justice took the custody of his son.
When leaving the series in 1984, landed unsuccessfully for Playboy magazine and away from returning to the small screen was devoted to making pornographic films. The redhead died in May 1999 from an overdose of drugs in the trailer where he lived for 34 years.
For its part Todd Bridges, Willis in the series, the older brother of Arnold and Drummond adoptive family, confessed that he began taking drugs at an early age and with their effects recorded episodes.
"I was only 12 years and my agent was abusing me, but my father stood beside him," Bridges told in an interview with Fox News, where he also acknowledged that his life fell apart at the end of the series.
Also with drug and alcohol problems, Bridges was convicted of illegal possession of weapons and for having stabbed a tenant. In 1989 he was tried and acquitted for attempted murder.
At one point, Willis decided to end his addiction. "One day I woke up and said this must change," he said. At that time, facing a trial for drug possession and the judge gave him to choose between prison or rehabilitation.
Meanwhile, Gary Coleman, who played the youngest of the adopted children, Arnold, went from being the prominent cheeks nice boy to a man with violent characteristics, also addicted to alcohol and drugs.
Suffering from kidney dysfunction that prevented him from growing, the actor's first controversial decision was to break ties with his adoptive parents and to sue for having stolen money from your bank account.
Away from television, in late 1998 a picture of him in his new work swept the world: he was responsible for supervision of a Shopping Center in California. Then hit a fan who asked for an autograph, so you got a sentence of 90 days in jail. He was also accused of beating his wife, and in recent months was seen insulting a television in a live program.
However, not all the protagonists of the series ran the same fate. Ironically, the eldest, who played the father of these three angels, was still working after the hit TV show.
Conrad Stafford Bain not only worked with Woody Allen in Bananas film, but also continued to perform roles in other movies and series, including with his twin brother Bonar, who is also an actor. With its 87 years, Bain lives with his wife Monica Sloan, who has been married since 1945 and had three children.

Presented the progress in reducing child and maternal mortality
"Preventing maternal and infant death is the best company we can take, but it is a task that can not face alone, so glad that the plan we are presenting is the result of work agreed with the provinces," said Manzur at Sala Pablo Picasso Paseo La Plaza, opened the conference "From strategy to action", organized by the national health portfolio in conjunction with the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO), the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) and the United Nations Fund for Children (UNICEF).
The event was attended by the Resident Coordinator of UN System in Argentina, Santiago Martín, the secretary of health policies and programs of the Ministry of Health, Maximum Diosque and Community Health Undersecretary of the ministry, Guillermo Gonzalez Prieto. Present were also the ministers of Health in Santiago del Estero, Luis Martinez, Formosa, Anibal Gomez, Misiones, Jose Guccione, Chaco, Jujuy Francisco Baquero, Victor Urbani, Tucumán, Paul Yedlin and La Rioja, Gustavo Graselli .
"Continue on the path of decreasing maternal and infant mortality in the country is our duty but also are two of the goals posed by the Millennium Development Goals, established in the framework of the World Health Organization," said Manzur -and we are moving forward with technical rigor, scientific and political support to achieve the success of the initiative. "

"
He added that "we know that these goals are not achieved from one day to the other and is also a fact that these indicators, infant mortality are inversely proportional to the level of schooling that mothers have, so the task is immense and cuts across all state policies. "
For its part, the UN representative in the country celebrated the "effort of Argentina" by submitting a plan to reduce maternal and infant death, a cause which he said "killed more than half a million women in the world complications of childbirth. " He added that "worldwide is producing about 20 million births per year in bad conditions, situations that kill 15 percent of mothers and of the 175 million pregnancies each year, more than half are unwanted."
In Argentina, the results of maternal health, children, adolescents and women are still not satisfactory when compared mortality rates with other nations in the region. In turn, the distribution of mortality in the country is very uneven: a newborn or a pregnant woman are more likely to live in Patagonia or the city of Buenos Aires in the Northwest (NOA) and Northeast ( NEA). For example, in the province of Neuquén neonatal mortality is half the national rate, while other districts triple those numbers.
The infant mortality rate in Argentina fell from 13.3 per thousand live births in 2007 to 12.5 per thousand live births in 2008. Regarding the maternal mortality rate, which reflects the risk of death of women during pregnancy, childbirth and the postpartum period and is calculated every ten thousand live births rose from 4.4 per ten thousand live births in 2007-4 ten thousand live births in 2008.
The picture in the provinces is dissimilar and that is why each has its own goals within the framework of implementing the plan.

Optimism grows in Argentina as World Cup nears
BUENOS AIRES (Reuters) - Thousands of Argentines cheered on the national team as it departed for South Africa on Friday on their quest to win the country's third World Cup.
The send-off marked the latest sign of growing confidence in coach Diego Maradona, who has had a turbulent tenure since taking over the team more than 18 months ago.
Chanting fans crowded a highway leading to the Buenos Aires international airport as a bus carrying the team moved slowly toward their flight.
"We're all with Diego," said Martin Bertaina, a 39-year-old horse trainer who rode his horse 20 kilometers to see the team.
"Maybe a few months ago we weren't, but Argentines are like that. One day we love you, the next we don't. But Maradona is special."
Argentina, World Cup champions in 1978 and 1986, are widely seen as one of the tournament's most talented teams led by striker Lionel Messi, who was voted Europe's player of the year.
Maradona, one of the game's greatest players, had a wobbly start as coach. His side advanced to the World Cup finals after winning their last qualifying match, narrowly avoiding a playoff.
However, two wins in friendlies against Germany and Canada, and strong showings by many of the team's top players with their club teams in Europe, have raised expectations for the team in South Africa.

" "It is a society with a diversity and plurality rarely seen, which was tested" with the attacks on the Israeli Embassy in 1992 and the AMIA in 1994, facts that would "have unleashed passions, divisions and ruptures but far from Therefore, integration strengthened ties between the communities.

At the same time, said the desire for peace in the world is connected "with longing and things that are still unresolved."
"The establishment of a Palestinian state and Israel's right to have borders and live in peace would be reasons that contribute to a world of peace and subtract arguments perhaps those who use terrorism as a kind of religious identity that has nothing to do with other religions and that is obviously political in nature, "he said.

Avanza un proyecto de biodiésel a partir de microalgas marinas (Mar del Plata)
Investigadores de la UTN Mar del Plata alcanzaron importantes resultados en la investigación para producir biodiésel desde microalgas marinas.
La Universidad Tecnológica Nacional de Mar del Plata (UTN-Mar del Plata) está trabajando de manera intensa en un proyecto de investigación altamente positivo: la producción de biodiésel a partir de microalgas marinas.
El trabajo de investigación se desarrolla en la ciudad de Mar del Plata, donde la UTN tiene su sede en la zona portuaria; el mismo está encabezado por un equipo de científicos y técnicos interdisciplinarios, que conjuga capacidades técnicas en acuicultura, ficología, biotecnología, ingeniería ambiental y de procesos. Para la cumplimentación del proyecto la UTN local está trabajando en conjunto con la UTN de Resistencia, Chaco.
Alcanzar a producir biodiésel a partir de microalgas marinas tiene ventajas muy importantes, ya que uno de los elementos fundamentales es que a diferencia de la soja o el resto de las plantas oleaginosas, no se quita una porción de los alimentos que podría ser necesaria para consumo humano o animal. Por otro lado tampoco se utiliza agua dulce, que será vital dentro de unos años, sino que se aprovecha el agua de mar que refrigera los equipos de una usina cercana al lugar donde se desarrolla el proyecto.
Otros aspectos para destacar son las virtudes comparativas que elevan la “performance” de las microalgas marinas con respecto a la soja, en la búsqueda del aceite para la fabricación del biodiésel. En este sentido, hay que decir que las microalgas no están sujetas a regímenes de zafra, por lo que se cultivan durante todo el año. Y el resultado es asombroso, dado que de una hectárea de microalgas se obtienen unos 8.000 litros de aceite al año.
Es por eso que este grupo de investigadores y técnicos de la UTN Mar del Plata está desarrollando este proyecto que propone realizar el cultivo masivo de especies seleccionadas de microalgas marinas como materia prima para la producción de aceite para biodiésel. Actualmente se encuentra en etapa de desarrollo, la cual consiste en experiencias realizadas en laboratorio y en un módulo de producción (en invernadero) con tanques de capacidades entre 100 y 2.000 litros. Pero este año se planea expandir dicho módulo a la construcción de varios piletones de tipo "raceway" ya que, en un plazo no mayor a cinco años, se proyecta contar con un área de producción de 1 hectárea.
Sustentabilidad
Un punto muy interesante de este proyecto es que su foco se centra en desarrollar procesos sustentables desde los puntos de vista económico y ambiental. Esto se logrará limitando la energía consumida a no más de un 20% de la energía a producir y reemplazando insumos de alto costo, como dióxido de carbono y medios de cultivo, por el aprovechamiento de pasivos ambientales como emisiones industriales y barros cloacales.
Las microalgas
Otro hecho notable de este proyecto radica en la utilización exclusiva de microalgas marinas. Esto tiene el especial propósito de conservar agua potable, la cual significará en un futuro un recurso natural más limitante que el petróleo. Para ello se ha implementado un importante sistema de abastecimiento de agua de mar natural proveniente del sistema de refrigeración de la central termoeléctrica local, ubicada a sólo 200 metros del módulo de producción. También se aprovecharán las emisiones gaseosas de dicha central como fuente de dióxido de carbono.
Por sus características, las microalgas duplican cada 24 horas la biomasa si se las hace crecer en condiciones óptimas. Además, requieren mucho menos fertilizante que los cultivos tradicionales, a diferencia de la soja u otras oleaginosas, que requieren mucho fertilizante para obtener un rinde interesante para la industria. Esto es debido a que las microalgas poseen una capacidad mucho mayor que las plantas terrestres para absorber la luz del sol y los nutrientes como el dióxido de carbono. Este último es un gas que provoca calentamiento global.
Como si esto fuera poco hay un aspecto que las convierte en altamente competitivas con el resto de los cultivos orientados a la generación del biodiésel: el rendimiento de aceite por hectárea de microalgas marinas, comparado con una hectárea de soja, es de 30 a 100 veces más, ya que ciertas especies poseen en condiciones óptimas hasta un 60% de su peso seco en aceite.
El proyecto
Desde su inicio en el año 2008, los investigadores de la UTN Mar del Plata han logrado avances significativos que muestran el potencial de este proyecto. En una primera etapa se adaptó una especie de microalga muy productiva y con alto contenido en aceite a las condiciones locales y se alcanzaron densidades celulares compatibles con la producción masiva en las cuatro estaciones del año. También se obtuvieron excelentes resultados en la etapa de separación de las células del agua de cultivo, lo cual se logró mediante técnicas de floculación y centrifugación.
Algo muy alentador para los investigadores fue el hecho de que, al extraer aceite de esta microalga cultivada en las condiciones locales de la ciudad de Mar del Plata, se determinó que es altamente apto para la producción de biodiésel. En un futuro próximo se planea experimentar con otras especies de microalgas y con condiciones de cultivo adicionales con el fin de optimizar el proceso y elevar el rinde.
Los investigadores y técnicos que integran el proyecto Cultivo Masivo de Microalgas para la Producción de Biodiésel, de la UTN Mar del Plata, poseen amplia experiencia. Los interesados pueden obtener información contactándose a arcoiris@mdp.utn.edu.ar
