What Is Steep Tech Supposed To Do
a couple of months ago, an editorial published gringa politically correct issues of Huckleberry Finn Tom Sawyer by Mark Twain in which, in addition to tweak crudities of the speech of the day, eliminating the word nigger, which means black. The students were offended, argued the responsible: a teacher in Alabama who, instead of explaining to their students scandalizing Twain's characters use language appropriate to their age and character, "Joseph Conrad novel titled The nigger of the Narcissus- prefers to distort the original text, infiltrating anachronisms that fit in today's prudish ways. Converting natural acid, typical of those times, cloying plum jam for fools and plum.
matches the thing with the French Culture Ministry, mistaking the word commemorate with the holding, excludes Louis-Ferdinand Céline of commemoration of this year, when met fifty of the death of the writer. That was terrible person, anti-Semite and collaborator with the Gestapo-like, on the other hand, thousands of his compatriots, "and author of a filthy anti-Semitic pamphlet titled Bagatelle pour un massacre, but also one of the great novelists of the twentieth century the most important in France, with Proust, whose Journey to the End of the night transforms narrative with immense talent, a very muddy squalor in stunning literary beauty. It shows, among other things, that a writer can be twisted special miserable, and that an artist is not required to be socially correct, but can, and should, go into the dark views. In the black hole of the human condition and its many atrocities.
So, all English, heard the patch. Assuming-perhaps a very big "those who are monitoring a bill blow our physical and moral know who they are Twain and Céline, imagine the possibilities this offers to touch us a little more balls ... What are trifles such as banning snuff or to criminalize the correct use of English, compared to rewriting, forced by decree, three thousand years of literature, history and philosophy ethically dubious? ... What to expect in English schools review or prohibiting as it does not fit into the forest in Bambi? ...

100 Pipers Scotch By Seagram
our funeral will probably
two years ago, Alice Hofer opened his extravagant funeral in the Alpine town of Thun , a boutique-like store where one does not dress for life but for death. Coffins are sold here individual at the request of future deaths. Besides patriotic coffins, with the Swiss flag or the German one, has created a black coffin with stars "because the universe will continue to shine but we're not," another with artificial turf "for golf enthusiasts," and another with sunflowers, " for those who enjoy the summer. "
palm, no doubt, brings an electric blue coffin with mussel shells glued together, "for those who love the sea." Alice's husband, the famous rock singer Polo Hofer, has suggested that his has two mirrors "to look back on his life." Hofer
wanted to give the Swiss another way to say goodbye to this world. "In most cases the loss of a loved one is a tragedy, so why not add a touch of humor? Sure helps to overcome the loss more easily," says Hofer. With these coffins, in fact, it is logical that the result is closer to a Greek tragicomedy. Your home looks awake, at least, smile.
However, since it opened its doors to the public, has sold only 10 pieces, at a price of around two thousand. Has had more luck with ash urns and caskets for animals that also manufactures a consumer taste. The figures do not concern him, because for Hofer this is a "hobby."
An African tradition
Hofer
The idea is not new. The tradition of creating eccentric coffins was born in Ghana for over five decades as a carpenter built a sumptuous chair in the form of cocoa beans for a local representative. He died before so enjoy it became his coffin. Soon after, another woman asked him build an airplane as he had never been able to fulfill his dream of flying. And so the eccentricity went on to become fashionable. In Ghana it is common now buried in a coffin in the shape of an object representing the profession of each. For Therefore, the hammers are shaped, mobile phones, pens and snails (gastropods for the seller, of course).
For once, globalization made the journey in reverse and the bizarre coffins arrived in the Western world where they have become works of art that come to be exhibited in museums. Hofer caskets are not the first and much less sophisticated. Crazy Coffins The company has spent a decade creating unusual box-like scooter, cork, yacht, Viking ship or ballet slipper. All pieces are unique and are made using traditional methods and their cost can range from 500 to 6,000 euros. At Natural Endings specialize in funerals and coffins inspired football.
Many people are interested in these coffins but very few people end up deciding for a burial with humor.

"Tale of the Tongue" - Peter Murphy
The time is coming ripe
We are running fast
I see you coming closer
Closer to the mask
Come closer treat me softly
Where can the dreamer be?
How far we've come to know
How much we've come to see
And when I ask you softly
Oh what the real men saw
As I hit the roof again
Oh what the dreamer saw
The street still screams
The street still screams of garbage thoughts
The stain of anxious guys
Still we glimpse the faintest note
Of some battered somnambulant men
Of the desire to know the whys
The street still screams
Fixed notions fashion them
Their rules police the street
No chance of Latin way
Hold down to crude belief
Lassoed in the charges' web
Locked inside the nation's pride
To boast the red of freedom's move
They take the purple side
I'm told from day to day
Gaol slip from behind
We are the guards of our mistakes
Off and running blind
So the dreamer speaks in time drunk wine
Take the coming day
If I seem to lag behind
Whisper me the way
The
street still screams
the album "Should the World Fail to Fall Apart" (1986) *******
mode Facebook Murphy hanging on in some videos and as I was recalling themes struck me realize the amount of years that have passed since I first heard : P
someday tell the story I have with Peter Murphy in his first visit to Mexico City and a press conference at the Tower Records store xD

A moon of Valencia, Saturday brighter than ever, the purifying fire which consumed announces spring ephemeral art and sarcastic Fallas, a festival mass, and this year even more ubiquitous tourist where forced to contain crisis plus expenses.

little after seven o'clock on Sunday afternoon hangover faller, jejejeje, and is when we realize that the days flew by. From February 27 is kicked out of the faults with Crid last night with Cremà all faults. Music, color, flavor, but several days rain and wind gave bad news about the party with a capital of Valencia. Several monuments fell due to wind, including a ninot of failure in my neighborhood. The rain damaged many more. But finally, last Thursday, the weather provided a respite. Happy
Demon and I went to see one of the nineteen mascletaes Achaeans held in the Plaza del Ayuntamiento that while TV can see or delayed by the network, there's nothing like being there feeling the pure powder cannon rumbling on the ground and deafening with its power. Click here if you want to know what a mascletà and here if you want to see one of the best of these failures.
I ate an obscene amount of pumpkin fritters (I hope, I long ago can still eat a little more, hahahaha). Happy Demon threw some bomblets to calm their anxieties of gunpowder, hahaha, it seems that it is carried in the blood ;-) The Valencian average, from tiny, and much enjoy throwing firecrackers and lighting firecrackers. You had to watch most of Happy Children to School Demon after the cream of the fault that we all did, all wanting to soak up the smell of gunpowder, to be as close as possible to the last remnants of the flames.
But is that something has all the party that reaches your soul and your heart turns :)

I know that for months for not publishing anything, so I'm not making excuses or anything. However, I wanted to publicize an exhibition which I think is quite interesting, is titled as the title of this post, The past of personal computing: HISTORY OF THE MICRO , and is open from March 16 until April 26
The exhibition takes place at the University of Jaén, Spain, is led by Francisco Charte and has a good amount of microcomputer material from old computers like the ZX-81 or the Commodore PET systems Removable Storage as an eight-inch disks (I never got to use those), punched tapes, etc.
Similarly, Francisco Charte has also written a book to complement the exhibition with Creative Commons license that can be downloaded for free (below are the links for information and downloads).
My idea is to try to go to the show before it ends in April, but for those who do not have that possibility, Francis told me that the idea is to make a video that fully recovered and put on-line.
Anyway, I love this kind of initiatives and the truth is more than an exhibition (hey, I'm not complaining that we do) what I like is that there a museum of computing in general or of microcomputers in particular here in Spain, but while that is not possible to enjoy initiatives like this.
