-Not smart, but still BRILLIANT
-The Simple solution for talking, texting, taking photos
- Get to your favorite social media spots, like Facebook and Twitter.
There is nothing further from reality, or more propaganda than this, really, I assure you. The only reason why I advise you to buy this phone is if your life depends on it and you have to send a text message or make a call.

I have taken the liberty of creating a trilogy, to make a dive in the unknown history of the Mongol Empire.
I recommend that you read first The Secret History of the Mongols, then the Secret History of the Mongol Queens and finally The Art of War of the Mongols: Genghis Khan and Mongol military system.
If you follow this chronology going to see how fascinating and unknown that was the Mongol Empire. I hope you like it.

Summary of the book:

In my opinion it is a great book I recommend reading as it allows us to see not only one side of Genghis Khan very unfamiliar, if not the role that the daughters and wives of Genghis played in the Mongol Empire.

In this book we see Genghis Khan, was almost the inventor of the modern era, it is more, there are countries today (which we believe are Westernized) that are more backward than the Mongol empire of the thirteenth century, which is really sad.

In this book we will see one of the most brilliant strategies in political alliances, which were his daughters, who became the spirals that helped lay Gengis and expand their empire.

But unfortunately also tells us the decay of this empire, one of the largest in history, the recipe is almost always the same for all empires. Inept, drunk and useless come to power and with them the end of the golden era.

But all hope for the Mongol empire is not lost, because grace Mandukhai Khatun who was regent until Dayan Khan was old to govern, these two characters succeed in restoring the glory of the empire Mongol and bring order to chaos.

The epilogue is great, please read it. What I liked most is the story of Christopher Columbus, as I did not know.

Mercury Transit May 2016

The first picture is so you can see how bad I was coming out, I take up hundreds of pictures like this. Now I have a few more or less good, are not of the quality of NASA, my colleagues had better luck than me.

In the photos you are going to see a circle of light color, it is the entire circumference of the solar disk.

Mercury is the dark leftmost point, which you can see in all the photos, the other dark spot is sunspot.

My sister asked me what I see

What I see: It is the transformation of life in to death, plus death in to the hope of several new life, that tremulous go flying by randomly pushed by the breeze or our desire, without knowing what place they will setting down, but not giving up hope...
Now tha it is the Adventure of the circle of life.
