Comment of an interview to Hans Kung.

There are lots of things mentioned on this video that I would like to adress.. First is shocking that he says that the pope governs without a cabinet. I am not an expert on the church but is difficult to think that he does not have consultants. The issue with the Muslims is because the quote the pope read about certain emperor. Hans Kung completetely overlooks that and goes on to say that the pope accused of violent people the Muslims. Moreover I read the discourse and what the pope what was criticizing was fideism. If you incorporate the quote, we could say that he was criticizing fideism on the Muslim side and on the Cristian side. Even one nun was killed because of the quote. I don't know but I think the pope apologized if offended someone. If you want to see it, the discourse of Ratisboa you could read it online on Zenit . Idirected to a page on spanish but I think you could find it on english if you search. The thing about the Jews because the pope removed the excommunicat...

Sony ICD-P28 and Dragon Naturally Speaking 10

I was trying to figure out how I can transcribe my recordings using the software that handles the recorder and Dragon. For those of you that are looking for drivers for the recorder I suggest visiting Sony Digital Voice Editor 3 .   Download that program and voila. I checked if my recorder was compatible with Dragon but it was not listed as compatible on Hardware Compatibility . Even a Sound Blaster Audigy SE soundcard isn’t listed as compatible. The other soundcard I have is a Sigma Tel but not sure if is integrated or not. I don’t even know if my recorder is compatible Dragon. I would like to know if  the hardware listed is compatible with Dragon. At least I want to make sure before buying if my recorder is compatible. Does anybody knows if my Sony Recorders is compatible with Dragon?  It is better to be sure because it seems that you have to buy Microsoft Office 2007  to use Dragon. The features of new hardware in comparison with the older ones are the ones that d...

Why we use bottled water instead of tap water?

On my country there is a project called Cine Verde or Green Cinema which aim is to communicate information about the environment through eco-friendly movies. I was at the site to check out which movies would be available in future presentations. There were some of them that I did not have heard of, like Tapped . I was wondering why is not for sure that the movie will be available for the presentation date. The fact is that the movie is not available on DVD yet but you can pre order the movie. Also there is the option for you to organize a public presentation. The trailer is very revealing and I all could say is: I want to see it! Check out the trailer! Also there are two entrepreneurs who have been fighting for the switch to local water instead of bottled water. They appeared on Scientific American Earth 3.0 magazine.The website sells reusable bottles so you can buy them and avoid using bottled water. Also there is a database available for you to check out the quality of your tap wa...

¿Cómo ser ambientalista con tu¨printer¨ o impresora¨?

He encontrado dos maneras de ahorrar tinta con mi computadora. La primera fue instalando un ¨font¨ o letra que esta disponible para todos los sistemas operativos (Windows XP, VIsta, GNU/Linux o Mac) . En mi caso la instalé en Ubuntu 8.04. Ahora al truco, que lo puedes encontrar pulsando en Ecofont . ¿En qué consiste el avance? El avance radica en que la letra tiene agugeros. El titulo del font se llama Spranq Eco Sans. Spranc es el nombre de la compañía que lo hizo. No te preocupes, a la letra pequeña no se le notan los agugeros. Sólo utilicé la letra grade para que lo pudieran ver. Vean la primera foto al final. El segundo truco aplica cuando querremos imprimir una página de internet pero terminamos imprimiendola toda, incluso imágenes de anuncions que no deseamos. El nombre de la página se llama www.printwhatyoulike.com y el servicio es gratuito.Sin embargo, no lo deseamos y es por eso que unos programadores se dieron a la tarea de facilitarnos la vida. Incluso podemos imprimir la...

Ubuntu a través de la historia de una foto.

            Q uería utilizar un sistema operativo para economizarme algunos dólares así que busqué sobre Linux. Sin embargo me sorprendieron otras cosas del sistema operativo. Yo empecé a utilizar Ubuntu cuando salió Ubuntu Feisty Fawn 7.04 y un año después salío Hardy Heron 8.04 LTS.LTS signifixa la versión a la cual le van a estar dando updates durante dos años, lo cual es el máximo. La ventaja de esto es que no vas a tener que estar dandole updates tan seguido como cada 6 meses, que es el intervalo de tiempo que se tarda en salir la nueva version de Ubuntu. Una de las ventajas principales fue que mi scanner que no servia para nada mas que ocupar espacio en mi casa pues se volvio util. El Scanner es HP ScanJet 3300C y lo compré para cuando era útil Windows 98 Second Edition. Lo que me sucedió con el scanner fue que el driver para XP no funcionaba y para mas decir se comportaba de una manera extrana en la computadora. Así que term...
