2 minutos después del lanzamiento del Atlantis

remains of the day, originally uploaded by dro!d.

Cuando una nave es lanzada al espacio, todo el mundo se queda con la imagen de la nave despegando, los millones de litros de combustible explosionando en los motores, la inmensa humareda, etc. Sin embargo, unos minutos después, cuando la nave ya está saliendo de la estratosfera, lo que queda es lo que veis en la foto, una enorme columna de humo, que el viento se encarga de disipar...

The new gadget from Apple: The iPhone

iPhone is a combination mobile phone, multimedia player, and wireless communications device announced by Apple Inc. CEO Steve Jobs during his keynote address at the Macworld conference on January 9, 2007. The iPhone will support push e-mail, mobile telephone, text messaging, Safari web browsing and other wireless information services. It will also be capable of running multiple tasks simultaneously. In addition, the touchscreen device will also include functionality found in the iPod series of media players and runs the OS X operating system (presumably streamlined for mobile devices with multi-touch screen implementation).

The device will be a 2.5G quad band GSM EDGE cell phone. It will come equipped with Wi-Fi (802.11b/g) and Bluetooth 2.0, as well as a 2-megapixel camera. It will be symmetrical both horizontally and vertically, for user "tilting" to view screen in either position.

Apple has not yet disclosed on which Intel processor the device runs, or whether third-party applications will run on the device. The iPhone trademark belongs to Cisco Systems; the issue was not fully settled at the time of Job's announcement.

The iPhone will not include a built-in keyboard or keypad; input is accomplished via a software-enabled graphical user interface implemented via the iPhone's touch screen.

Was hanging Saddam the best thing to do?

Let's start 2007 giving elCongrio a more serious twist... today we face a complex geopolitical issue: Peace & War in Irak, and the hanging of Saddam...

It is obvious that this man was no saint, and that he played a leading part in the genocide of thousands of kurds... the reality is not that simple though: He had been for many years a committed ally of the USA & many of our Western European countries...

... the thing is, after the occupation/ liberation of Irak, and the so called peace (some claim there have been over 600.000 civile victims so far), an ongoing process of democratization that will have undetermined results, the Iraki government, and the countries supporting it, had a difficult unsolved question: What to do with Saddam. So, what is your position? what do you think they had to do with him?
