…pero una mayoría aquí en Puerto Rico son brutos y no se ofenda que se los dijeron los mismo de ustedes "así de brutos son" y piensan que el proyecto esencia beneficiará al puertorriqueño sigan
aplaudiendo el desplazamiento y ser esclavos de multimillonarios.
@LeninPR Basta ya de hablar sin conocimiento técnico sobre problemas reales y complejos. Los vecinos no manejan el SISTEMA que suple agua a la REGIÓN sur oeste de la Isla. Eso requiere científicos e ingenieros especializados. Los mismos que no han sido consultados. Más Seriedad.
@lacted Los científicos estamos hartos de tener que atender asuntos especializados con personas que demuestran no tener interés de resolver problemas complejos. Nos hemos preparado con seriedad y disciplina para servir al Pueblo. Estamos disponibles para servirle bien a PR.
🚨🚨 Never in history has there been a war in which 80% of the country was destroyed, 100% of the population displaced, and 50% of the deaths were children. Let's call it by its name: GENOCIDE.
Poca gente sabe esto, pero Danny DeVito y su compañera Rhea Perlman compraron los derechos de la película “Matilda” en 1994.
Pues bien, resulta que durante la 1ª semana de rodaje de la película, la madre de la actriz Mara Wilson, la niña que encarnó a Matilda, Suzie, enfermó de cáncer.
Danny y Rhea cuidaron de la niña, mientras su madre estaba hospitalizada, como sus verdaderos padres, preocupándose por la atención y necesidades de Mara, así como llevarla al Hospital a visitar a su madre.
Desgraciadamente, ella falleció antes de que la película llegara a estrenarse en cines, pero algo maravilloso ocurrió.
Años después, en un precioso acto de bondad, se supo que Danny con una copia en VHS, aún no terminada de toda la película, se la llevó a la mamá de Mara para que pudiera verla en el hospital. Y no solo eso. Trás la muerte de ella, cuidaron de Mara siempre, porque no le faltara de nada.
El ser humano es maravilloso por cosas así❤️
¡Viva el cine!🙌😎
Every Black kids deserve the chance to grow old.

He told his students to go to the windows.
Get out. Jump if you have to.
Then Liviu Librescu walked to the classroom door and pressed his body against it.
He was 76 years old. He weighed 140 lbs
The gunman was in the hallway.
It was April 16, 2007. A Monday morning. Solid mechanics class at Virginia Tech, Room 204. Twenty-two students, most of them 19 or 20 years old.
At 9:45 AM, gunshots echoed through Norris Hall. Room by room, the shooter was working his way down the corridor.
Liviu heard it. He understood immediately.
He had survived the Holocaust. He had survived a labor camp. He had spent decades living under Communist oppression. He knew exactly what evil sounded like.
He told his students to escape through the windows. Second floor — it was a drop, but they'd survive. Then he walked to the door and held it shut with his body.
The shooter tried to force it open. It wouldn't move.
He fired through the door. Wood splintered. Bullets came through.
Liviu stayed.
Behind him, students were climbing out the windows. Dropping to the ground. Running. One by one, all twenty-two of them got out.
The shooter kept firing through the door.
Liviu held it shut until every student was safe.
Then the bullets killed him.
When police arrived, they found his body at the door.
All 22 of his students survived. Not one was injured.
Liviu Librescu was born on August 18, 1930, in Ploiești, Romania.
He was Jewish. In 1941, when he was eleven years old, Romanian authorities sent him and his family to a labor camp. His father died there. Liviu survived. When the war ended, he was fifteen.
He went back to school. Studied engineering. Earned a doctorate from the University of Bucharest.
But Communist Romania had no interest in allowing a Jewish intellectual to succeed. He was blocked from academic positions. Passed over for jobs he deserved. He applied to emigrate. The government kept refusing.
Finally, in 1978 when Liviu was 48 years old — Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin personally intervened. Romania let him go.
He had spent most of his adult life trapped in a country that didn't want him.
In Israel, he taught at Tel Aviv University. Published over 300 papers. Became an international expert in aeroelasticity — the science of how air flows over aircraft wings.
In 1985, Virginia Tech offered him a position. He moved to Blacksburg, Virginia. He taught there for 22 years. His students loved him — demanding but kind, high standards, genuine care.
He was still teaching full-time at 76. Still publishing research. Still showing up every Monday morning for solid mechanics.
April 16 was the first day of Passover — the Jewish holiday celebrating liberation from slavery and oppression.
Liviu Librescu died on the day his tradition sets aside to celebrate freedom.
He spent his entire life escaping death and oppression by luck, by persistence, by the intervention of others. And on his last morning, he chose to stand at a door so that twenty-two young people could have the future he had fought so hard to reach.
He could have run. He could have hidden. He could have climbed out a window with his students.
He chose to stay.
The Virginia Tech shooting killed 32 people that day — the deadliest school shooting in American history at the time.
Room 204 had zero casualties.
Because a 76-year-old Holocaust survivor held a door with his body until every student behind him was gone.
His funeral was held in Israel. Students from Virginia Tech flew across the ocean to honor him. The Israeli government awarded him the Star of David Medal posthumously. Virginia Tech named a scholarship in his memory.
His son said his father died the way he lived — protecting others.
A man who survived everything evil threw at him for 76 years.
On his last day, he made sure 22 kids survived too.
Professor Liviu Librescu. August 18, 1930 — April 16, 2007.
Holocaust survivor. Labor camp survivor.
302 published papers. 22 years at Virginia Tech.
22 students out the window.
He held the door.

AHORA: DDEC responde a petición de información del Senado sobre Politank.
El nuevo Secretario confirma que no han revocado decretos contributivos a pesar de auditoría porque “realizarán una evaluación ‘de novo’ del expediente”.
