 Belmonte y Manolete   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
In this century the innovative techniques of Juan Belmonte and Manuel Rodríguez "Manolete" have transformed the old way of bullfighting, the best and last flagbearer of which was José Gómez "Joselito", into the modern style of bullfighting, that the audiences expect today.
Belmonte reduced the distance between man and beast to a minimum, to the point that they seem to be integrated into a man-bull entity.
In 1933 alone Belmonte was gored twelve times in thirty-some "corridas", and 1934 fourteen bullfighters, with less talent than the innovator, left their lives in the rings performing under Belmonte's influence.

 Vitamin A's Paradoxical Role in Influencing Symmetry During Embryonic Development | Today's Stem Cell Research
In this week's journal Nature, scientists at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies report that they have solved one of the “holy grail” puzzles of developmental biology: the existence of a mechanism that insures that the exterior of our bodies is symmetrical while inner organs are arranged asymmetrically.
In research with zebra fish, as a model for human biology, Juan-Carlos Belmonte and his Salk Institute colleagues found that retinoic acid (vitamin A) is the signal that buffers the influence of asymmetric cues in early-stage embryonic stem cells and allows these cells to develop symmetrically.
Belmonte and his Salk colleagues evaluated other signaling pathways that also influence pattern formation -- Wnt, fibroblast growth factor and Notch -- and found that none of them was responsible for coordinating the antero-posterior and left-right axes.
