Por la tarde, de regreso a casa, encontramos una enorme serpiente de mar clavada por el cuello en el marco de la puerta, y era negra y fosforescente y parecía un maleficio de gitanos, con los ojos todavía vivos y los dientes de serrucho en las mandíbulas despernancadas. Yo andaba entonces por los nueve años, y sentí un terror tan intenso ante aquella aparición de delirio, que se me cerró la voz. Pero mi hermano, que era dos años menor que yo, soltó los tanques de oxígeno, las máscaras y las aletas de nadar y salió huyendo con un grito de espanto.

Pero Leo no tiene más armas para defender sus causas que su pie izquierdo. “Su belleza es eterna, pero es muy difícil que la enseñe todos los días. Y eso que él lo hace más seguido que ningún otro en la historia. Le dieron por todos lados. Estaba con una gasa en la boca y ni protestaba. Solo jugaba”, explica Menotti. El domingo lo frenaron hasta seis veces con falta; dos se llevaron la amarilla, Kovacic y Casemiro; el tercero la roja, Sergio Ramos. Ni se escondió cuando le dejaron la boca encharcada de sangre, una herida por la que necesitó que le pusieran puntos en el labio. […] “Leo tenía la sensación de que le estaban pegando mucho”, cuentan los que hablaron con el 10.

Wilhelm von Humboldt en España
Wilhelm von Humboldt (1767-1835), hermano mayor de Alexander, el gran filólogo y estadista alemán, además de creador de la Universidad de Berlín, emprendió dos viajes por España. El primero comenzó en octubre de 1799, poco después de la partida de su hermano hacia los territorios españoles en América, acompañado por su esposa Carolina, sus tres hijos y su preceptor Gropius. El itinerario de su primer viaje se inicia en España por Fuenterrabía, desde donde se dirigirá a Vitoria, Burgos, Valladolid, Segovia, la Granja de San Ildefonso y puerto de Navacerrada, para llegar a El Escorial, donde permanecerán diez días para conocer en profundidad las maravillas artísticas del real monasterio. Aquí será presentado, como ya lo había sido su hermano Alexander, al rey Carlos IV, que le resultará simpático.

Could Eating a Second Breakfast Help You Lose Weight?
by Alexa Erickson
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, right? So why not have two? There’s a growing trend promoting a “second breakfast” as a weight-loss mechanism. The idea: If you eat more in the morning, you’ll be less likely to snack at night, when, according to research, it’s harder to burn off calories. Now there’s research adding weight to this claim.
A study conducted by researchers at Yale and the University of Connecticut suggests that eating something small to jump-start your metabolism followed by a slightly larger meal an hour or two later can keep you satiated until lunchtime and help prevent overeating throughout the rest of the day. The study, published in the journal Pediatric Obesity, tracked the weight and breakfast-eating patterns of students from 12 randomly selected urban area schools over the course of two years. The team looked at six different eating patterns: frequent breakfast skippers, inconsistent school eaters, inconsistent home eaters, frequent school eaters, frequent home eaters, and double-breakfast eaters. They found that it was the frequent breakfast skippers who showed increased odds of becoming overweight or obese compared to the double-breakfast eaters.

SpaceX successfully launches secret government spy satellite
First stage of Falcon 9 rocket lands back at Cape Canaveral
SpaceX launched a top-secret spy satellite for the U.S. government Monday morning and then successfully landed the booster for recycling. The unmanned Falcon 9 rocket lifted off from its NASA-leased pad at Kennedy Space Center in Florida. It was SpaceX's first mission for the National Reconnaissance Office. No details were divulged about the newly launched NRO satellite. Instead, SpaceX focused its webcast on the successful touchdown of the first-stage booster. The leftover booster — its job done — landed at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station several minutes after liftoff. Sonic booms rattled the area, serving as a Monday morning wake-up call. Across the country, cheers erupted at SpaceX Mission Control at company headquarters in Hawthorne, California. SpaceX strives to return most of its boosters for reuse.
The company's first recycled rocket flew last month. This was the fourth SpaceX booster landing at Cape Canaveral; even more have landed on ocean platforms.

Rare ‘Coffin Birth' Found in Black Death Burial Site
by Rossella Lorenzi
Researchers investigating a 14th century burial ground have identified a rare case of "coffin birth" - a gruesome phenomenon in which a deceased pregnant woman's fetus is expelled within the grave. The event, which has seldom been reported in archaeology, is known as postmortem fetal extrusion. It results from a build-up of gas pressure within the decomposing body. "In this case, we have a partial expulsion of a 38- to 40-week-old fetus, which was found to be complete and to lie within the birth canal," Deneb Cesana, at the University of Genova, told Seeker.

Surgeons Conduct Head Transplants on Rats, Say Humans Are Next
After 14 head transplants on rats, a pair of surgeons say they will attempt a human head transplant in the next 10 months in China.
by Eva Hershaw
Chinese scientists have transplanted the head of a donor rat onto the back of a host body, creating an equally garish and impressive two-headed rat that may offer insights into the viability of an eventual human head transplant.
The process, which was done by way of a rat triad, which included a donor, recipient, and blood supply rat, provided a continuous blood supply to the donor brain throughout the transplant, avoiding brain tissue hypothermia — a condition where the brain suffers in absence of a blood supply. The problem has long been one of the major barriers to carrying out a successful head transplant in animal specimens.
