POLITICS OF BOGOTA

Liberalism Uribe warns that majorities depend on a "related party to illegality"
The Liberal Party sent a strong warning to the bench Uribe and the Government.
Rafael Pardo, chief only of that party, said the constitution of the new majorities Uribe in Congress is subject to union with a play-challenged.
Pardo noted that the 30 senators for U, in addition to the 22 Conservative Party should seek a political force to achieve the majority.
So, liberalism said it is time that the Uribe clarify whether PIN - "party questioned for his ties to the illegal" - is part of the new coalition that makes up the Uribe in the legislature.
In that sense, the liberal leader expressed "great satisfaction" by the results of Sunday, where he managed to keep the representation 'red' in the National Capitol.
"We got the same 18 senators from 4 years ago against a machine too powerful government-backed," said Pardo.
Match PIN were elected Teresita Garcia Romero, sister of Alvaro Garcia Romero and Hector Julio Alfonso, son of Enilse Lopez, alias "La Gata".

Metallica in COLOMBIA

Metallica history
Metallica is an American heavy metal band from Los Angeles, California, formed in 1981. Founded when drummer Lars Ulrich posted an advertisement in a local newspaper, Metallica's line-up has primarily consisted of Ulrich, rhythm guitarist and vocalist James Hetfield and lead guitarist Kirk Hammett, while going through a number of bassists. Currently, the spot is held by Robert Trujillo.
Metallica's early releases included fast tempos, instrumentals, and aggressive musicianship that placed them as one of the "big four" of the thrash metal subgenre alongside Slayer, Megadeth, and Anthrax during the genre's development into a popular style. The band earned a growing fan base in the underground music community and critical acclaim, with the 1986 release Master of Puppets described as one of the most influential and "heavy" thrash metal albums. The band achieved substantial commercial success with Metallica (1991), which debuted at number one on the Billboard 200. With this release the band expanded its musical direction resulting in an album that appealed to a more mainstream audience.
In 2000, Metallica was among several artists who filed a lawsuit against Napster for sharing the band's copyright-protected material for free without the band members' consent. A settlement was reached, and Napster became a pay-to-use service. Despite reaching number one on the Billboard 200, the release of St. Anger alienated many fans with the exclusion of guitar solos and the "steel-sounding" snare drum
The band has won nine Grammy Awards, and has had five consecutive albums debut at number one on the Billboard 200, making Metallica the first band to. As of December 2009, Metallica is the fourth highest-selling music artist since the SoundScan era began tracking sales on May 25, 1991, selling a total of 52,160,000 albums in the United States alone.
