Bye bye Pluto

Pluto, the ex-planet

This post is about the planet, not the cartoon’s character ;) .

From Science&Space on CNN.com:

Pluto no longer a planet, say astronomers.
Leading astronomers declared Thursday that Pluto is no longer a planet under historic new guidelines that downsize the solar system from nine planets to eight. After a tumultuous week of clashing over the essence of the cosmos, the International Astronomical Union (IAU) (not the eneby of BigG. :P ) stripped Pluto of the planetary status it has held since its discovery in 1930.

Video of the Day

KLOSS does not sell many things, but stomachs need to be filled, and the price of erasers keeps rising. After over two years in development, ‘DeLighTable‘ is finally avaliable to buy as a commercial product. The real work obviously lies in the pressure sensitive surface, but now it also comes in an attractive casing. With a framework finished in polished stainless steel, DeLighTable has taken the guise of a slim coffe table only twenty five millimetres thick. To purchase, simply fill in a form through the ‘contact us’ section. The tables are made to order, and the typical lead time is four to six weeks.

JPound 1.0 - First Official Release

JPound Test Logo

This is the first official release of a new project, JPound:

JPound is a Control and Configuration System for Asterisk PBX

Based on the ARA (Asterisk Realtime Architecture) and builded with DB-Centric-Systems in mind, JPound is a young but powerful (I hope ;)) idea to make Asterisk a complete, manageable, extensible, flexible Phone System.

Actually, JPound version is 1.0 stable.

The main structure is good defined and it seems to be solid but extensible.
I have many idea about future services and expansions: it’s a ‘testing-the-field’ release.

Here the project official page, hosted on the Google Code Site.

Sources are accessible using SVN: instruction on the site.

Comments/impressions/ideas/suggestions are very very wellcome.

Domino Harvey: storia vera

Domino
Quando ho visto il film, ho dato per scontato che fosse una invenzione il personaggio di Domino Harvey.

L’unica cosa che mi ha insospettito é stato un “cammeo” nel finale: una ragazza magra, con i capelli corti rossastri che dice

«Mi chiamo Domino Harvey»

Lì ho capito che forse qualcosa di vero c’era.
