Lima. — El gobierno informó que en 2012 la Universidad de Yale entregará el tercer y último grupo de objetos, mayormente cerámicos, hallados en la ciudadela inca de Machu Picchu y que el centro de estudios conservó por un siglo.
“El 2012 deben llegar poco más de 4,000 lotes compuestos de aproximadamente 40,000 piezas entre íntegros y fragmentos y básicamente de cerámica y líticos (de piedra)”, dijo a The Associated Press Blanca Alva, directora de fiscalización del Ministerio de Cultura.
La ciudadela de piedra de Machu Picchu, la mayor atracción turística de Perú y considerada una maravilla mundial, se ubica en la selva de Cusco a 500 kilómetros al sudeste de Lima.
No hay una fecha exacta para la llegada de la tercera entrega pero un acuerdo firmado entre la Cancillería de Perú y la Universidad de Yale establece que el arribo de las piezas debe ser antes del 31 de diciembre de 2012.
En junio y diciembre Yale realizó el primer y segundo envío de piezas que han sido instaladas en el museo “Casa Concha” de la ciudad sureña de Cusco, la antigua capital del Imperio Inca y cercana a Machu Picchu.
Con la última entrega de 2012 Perú calcula que llegarán unas 46.332 piezas halladas en Machu Picchu por el profesor de Yale y descubridor Hiram Bingham, quien las llevó desde 1911 a ese centro de estudios en calidad de préstamo.
En 2004 Perú inició gestiones para obtener su devolución que fracasó al inicio por la negativa de Yale de entregar las piezas. En 2010, tras la fuerte presión del gobierno peruano, Yale accedió a la repatriación de los objetos.

Getting an eyeful ; New ‘Valentine’ returns to scares of yesteryear
The Buffalo News (Buffalo, NY) January 16, 2009 | RICK BENTLEY The late 1970s and early 1980s was the golden age for modern horror films. The idea behind movies like “Chopping Mall” or “The House on Sorority Row” was to entertain the audience with over-the- top acts of violence. But in recent years that philosophy has been replaced by a desire to titillate moviegoers with acts of torture.
Back when Freddy and Jason were prowling theaters, the idea was to scare moviegoing couples enough to make them wrap their arms around each other. Now they just want you to wrap your arms around a toilet. go to website evo 3d review
“My Bloody Valentine 3D” returns to those entertainingly scary days of yesteryear. There’s no way to watch this nonstop string of brutal attacks without seeing the absurdity in the whole thing. Toss in first-rate 3D, and the movie not only pays a proper homage to the 1981 original but kicks it up about 1,000 notches.
Fans of ’70s and ’80s horror films will recognize the familiar plot. An isolated community becomes the target of a killer. He chops his way through young and old while the local law enforcement show up just in time to crack bad jokes about the victims.
The killer in “Bloody Valentine” is the Miner. He is a pick- swinging maniac made crazy after being the only survivor of a mining accident. It appeared the Miner was stopped after his first killing spree, but 10 years later he’s back to his old ways.
The question is whether the original Miner has returned or someone new has decided to continue the tradition.
Director Patrick Lurrier spent years working as an editor on such films as all three “Scream” offerings and “Halloween H2O: 20 Years Later.” The knowledge he gained from those movies comes through as he skillfully blends acts of violence with graveyard humor. Despite the brutality of the acts, such a mix requires a delicate touch: Swing too far toward the violence or the humor, and the movie fails.
Lurrier doesn’t miss a step. Even a sequence with one of the longest gratuitous nude scenes in horror-movie history is played with a proper balance of tension and humor. go to website evo 3d review
As with the scary films of two decades ago, the actors are really little more than props to get from one killing to the next. But Kerr Smith, who plays the local sheriff, is good enough to give the role some depth. His effort wasn’t necessary, but is is welcomed.
This kind of horror flick has never been about great acting, serious storytelling or even a plot. Such movies work if the violence makes you scream and laugh at the same time.
“My Bloody Valentine 3D” does that in spades. Actually, it does it with a pick ax.
*** MY BLOODY VALENTINE 3D Review: 3 stars (Out of 4) STARRING: Kerr Smith, Jensen Ackles, Jaime King and Edi Gathegi DIRECTOR: Patrick Lussier RUNNING TIME: 100 minutes RATING: R for graphic violence, nudity and language.
THE LOWDOWN: Remake of 1981 slasher film.
