FOR MORE PRACTICE SPACE GO TO: http://www.vbs.tv/player.php?bccl=Mjg0OTQ3NzE4X19NVVNJQw= As you may have put together while watching this episode, Odio a Botero (which means, roughly, "I hate Botero") hate Botero. Just as a primer in case you didn't grow up in Colombia, Fernando Botero is an artist whose whole schtick is that he paints and sculpts a variety of fairly traditional subjects, but makes them all bulbous and fat. Sad-looking street buskers, half-dressed lovers, Roman gladiators, the Mona Lisa--all made doughy and ridiculous looking. He's basically the blue-dog guy of Colombia. Somehow though, presumeably for lack of a better serious painter, he's been elevated to the position of his country's Picasso and his goofy works are not only displayed with pride in and around his hometown of Medellin and drilled into the heads of schoolkids as the peak of Colombian art, but carted off to other parts of the world to showcase his quintessential "Colombianness." If you want an idea the kind of cultivated mind we're dealing with, his most recent work he's been humping around the globe is a 2005 series of torture victims meant to express his outrage and shock at the Abu Ghraib scandal a year earlier. You guessed it, they're all fat guys.

Board Game - Space BattleBoard games, unlike sports or video games, do not require players either to move actively or use any additional technically complex equipment or special facilities, playgrounds or fields.The new game "Space Battle" is based on the good old familiar rules of the famous "Sea battle". It is designed for two players and enables them to fight in the galactic spaces.The game package consists of two game sets made of durable plastic in the form of a suitcase, each including:- a playing field with a screen,- 5 models of combat spaceships, 160 white and 40 red chips.Each player takes a game set and takes a seat so as not to see the playing field of the fellow player. Ships are arranged on the playing fields so that the distance between them is not less than one cell. Once the ships are placed, you can start the game.There are two main game options, players are shooting strictly on the queue or until the first miss, that is, if a player hits the enemy ship, he makes the next shot, and only after a miss it's the other player's turn to make a move. The playing field displays the player's ships and the results of the fellow player's shots. The screen displays the results of the player's own shots at the fellow player. A miss is displayed with a white chip, a hit -- with a red chip both on the field and on the screen.Each shot has its own coordinates.In order to destroy a fellow player's ship a certain number of hits is required, it's equivalent to the number of holes for the red chips on the deck of the ship.The one who is the first to destroy all of the fellow player's ships wins the game.Board games for children are educational games teaching perseverance, developing logical thinking, planning skills as well as tactical and strategic decision-making. Different and diverse, they are perfect for a little lover of the humanities, a young physicist or a tireless designer.
