Gossiping in 607

This section is dedicated to revealing the most hidden truths of this fantastic English class. Here they are:
  • Jose Manuel is an America fan.
  • Juan Antonio hates the America, that's what he says but what is more secure that he is an America fan.
  • There are a pair of amorous couples in the group, for respect them i wont say their names but surely you can imagine.

Visit to Guadalajara

The past Wednesday, I visited Guadalajara in order to asist to the firts Congres of Mechatronic Engineering. Of course, I took the opportunity to visit some tourist attractions. Although I only had one day to do so, it was long enough to walk in the streets and plazas of the center. What most caught my attention was the central cathedral, which contains shrines dedicated to Our Lady of the Assumption, Our Lady of Guadalupe, Our Lady of Sorrows, the Virgin of Zapopan (patron saint of Guadalajara), Santo Domingo de Guzman, San Nicolas de Bari, St. Thomas Aquinas, San Cristobal, San Juan de Dios. There are 52 seats carved wooden chair in addition to the Cardinals. The decoration is made of marble and silver. The colors of stained glass are imported from France, the guide told me that. In praticular it was a very pleasant experience despite the fact that I had to miss several classes and my English exam, but I will do it ... I hope.

48 years of spaceflight pictured


This year, NASA is celebrating its 50th anniversary. Inspired to make his own contribution, astronomer Ralf Vandebergh recorded images of some historic spacecraft in Earth orbit -- captured with his own modest equipment and a 10-inch, Newtonian reflecting telescope. From a 1960 launch, on the left is the TIROS 2 satellite, one of the first successful weather satellites. While this TIROS (Television InfraRed Observation System) satellite stopped functioning in 1961, Vandeberg notes that if we could visit it now, we would still find video cameras and magnetic tape recorders. On the right, of course, is the ISS (International Space Station) including its recent addition, the Progress M-65 cargo vehicle, launched to the ISS the last month. It will be a great year for de NASA and all their investigations.
