La nave de "Avatar" tiene a Pellegrino detrás
La ISV Venture Star de la película recoge algunas de sus ideas. Es ciencia-ficción "dura", y se agradece.
"…Talk of “wormholes” and “warp drives” captured the imagination of twentieth-century sci-fi fans, but no such methods have come to fruition. For now, engineers must rely upon techniques that exploit our current understanding of physics. Visionaries set their sights on the potential for matter-antimatter reactions. The enormous energy released in the annihilation of matter and antimatter is the only known means of creating the kind of propulsion needed for interstellar travel. The first interstellar ship was over four kilometers long, because of the massive refrigeration system required to maintain the conventional low-temperature superconducting magnets that produced the containment field for the matter-antimatter reaction. It was not until the discovery of the high-temperature superconductor unobtanium on Pandora that interstellar travel and commerce became commercially viable. The Capital Star Class ISV was developed using this technology and is one-quarter the size of that first ship, and many times more efficient. Power Source: Hybrid deuterium fusion / matter-antimatter annihilation…"

Re-Wire (2009) Trailer from David Fernandes on Vimeo.
This is the trailer for Re-Wire, a new 14-minute psych-fi film and the directorial debut of Toronto filmmaker, David-James Fernandes.
The film follows Harley, a late 30's man suffering from severe, debilitating anxiety. On a tip from his psychiatrist, Harley seeks out the help of Dr. Adrian Vanuz, a renown but disgraced neuroscientist whose experimental equipment has allegedly been used to cure epilepsy, Alzheimer's and possibly even mental health issues. Harley is determined to get better, whether or not the doctor is ready to see him. And at any risk....
The film has been submitted to ten film festivals so far and the filmmakers are waiting for responses.Please see the website for more information about the cast and crew:

"Spartacus: Blood and Sand"
Esta es la web de la serie, con trailer en portada: parece muy vistosa.
"…Betrayed by the Romans. Forced into slavery. Reborn as a Gladiator. The classic tale of the Republic’s most infamous rebel comes alive in the graphic and visceral new series, Spartacus: Blood and Sand. Torn from his homeland and the woman he loves, Spartacus is condemned to the brutal world of the arena where blood and death are primetime entertainment. But not all battles are fought upon the sands. Treachery, corruption, and the allure of sensual pleasures will constantly test Spartacus. To survive, he must become more than a man. More than a gladiator. He must become a legend.
Starring Australian actor, Andy Whitfield (McLeod's Daughters) as Spartacus, Lucy Lawless (Xena: Warrior Princess) as Lucretia, John Hannah (The Mummy, Four Weddings and A Funeral) as Batiatus and Peter Mensah (300, The Incredible Hulk) as Doctore, this unique mix of live action, graphic novel effects and brutal battle sequences is set to make "Spartacus: Blood and Sand" an epic television event…"

Peter Watts asaltado por la policía de frontera
Not the best of possible worlds
Dr Peter Watts, Canadian science fiction writer, beaten and arrested at US border
…Defending this charge will cost a fortune, and an inadequate defense could cost Peter his home, his livelihood and his liberty. Peter's friends are raising money for his legal defense. I just sent him CAD$1,000, because this is absolutely my biggest nightmare: imprisoned in a foreign country for a trumped-up offense against untouchable border cops. I would want my friends to help me out if it ever happened to me…

Doctor Dark Energy: Sólo Osama Ben Laden puede salvarnos del LHC
'Doctor Dark Energy': The Ultimate LHC eccentric? Only Osama can stop 'collaptic devil particle'
…Attention! Magnetic trap of Devil!
Some theorists suggest that the Higgs bosons will be registered at the LHC ... Higgs boson had received a new name, "the God particle". We know that the most of particles have their corresponding antiparticles. So, if there is a particle of God, then there is a particle of Devil.
By adding the colliding energy, we can get the God particle and its anti-particle, the magnetic trap of Devil ... the magnetic hole captures the substance and transforms its rest mass-energy into another form of matter, - the magnetic field of the Devil's trap. Say me now, are we have the right to touch the particle of God?…

Sex, secrets and 'Dollhouse': Joss Whedon talks about the end of his Fox show
"Whedon: "To be in Rome because it’s warm all the time…" The stuff that is going on in cable is really interesting and I absolutely think I would be interested in finding a home there. I still love the medium, but first, I need to sort of scale back for a little bit, also because I went from the show to the movies to the show without a break and I got tired. I need to shore up for a few months and chill so that I can come back hard because I’m pretty beat down.
And I’m not interested in boldness, FYI. I just want to do nudity because it’s all about the nudies.
Ryan: Of course. "They get to be naked!"
Whedon: "They’re cops, but they’re nude."
Ryan: "And they’re singing!"
Whedon: No, no. I haven’t gone that crazy…"

…The goal was to put up something that could exist as a big, dynamic, entertaining summer blockbuster. That's clearly what you aspire to make when you take on something like 'Battleship' and I think we're well on our way. I want to share a few pictures with you guys of the enemy, pictures of what the enemy is going to look like. Nobody has seen these…but the enemy does come from another planet. That's not news. It's true, you guys uncovered it first. We tried to keep it a secret, but it's our goal to make that as intelligent and logical, certainly as 'District 9' was able to do. But to provide a real intelligence to our opponent, a logic, a rationale for being there and not purely hostile, violent creatures bent on global destruction. They've got a much more logical agenda planned that happens to come into conflict with us. Then there's a chance for two relatively equal opponents to go at each other and you get a sense of some of the equipment you saw, the level and intelligence of that character of what modern sailors are today…
…I would actually say more 'The Bridge On the River Kwai' but they're trying to build something because they're in trouble and they need a power source. That's all I'm telling you. When you say 'A Bridge Too Far', they're trying to get something completed and in doing so they're not particularly concerned with any life that happens to get near them while they're doing that. They don't have anything against you but if you interfere with their agenda they'll kill you and that's why they have to be dealt with…

Kosinski, repped by WME and Anonymous, is a commercial director making his feature debut with “Tron,” which is set for release on Dec. 17, 2010. Disney is high on the movie, which could launch a franchise. It is unknown where “Hole” would fit in Kosinski’s timetable.

Y el muy giliflauta va y decide que el tal agente hizo tamañas guarrindongueces que el servicio no puede permitirse dejarle vivo. Y van a por él para ventilárselo.

Cuando Google hunde tu posición
…One day in June 2006, search startup Foundem vanished from Google. Foundem is the developer of a "universal vertical search" technology, and currently offers comparison shopping across a range of consumer and travel categories by drilling down into vendor sites and returning details of actual flights and products. But on 26 June 2006, Google flipped a switch and all of the obvious comparison shopping keywords no longer applied for the company.
Foundem had been effectively 'disappeared' from Google search results. A few weeks later in August, it was hit with an AdWords penalty, sending the quality score which determined Foundem's minimum AdWords bid through the floor. From paying around 5p per click for a Google sponsored link, Foundem claims it went to £5. The "quality score" is an automated assessment of the AdWords advertiser's landing page, and Foundem's had been lowered from a rating of "excellent" or "very good" to "poor" or "very poor"…

AMD Fusion frente a Larrabee
Una de las razones esgrimidas era que no ven interesante el perder transistores tontamente en el "traductor" x86 a RISC que tiene cada núcleo x86 (si tienes veintitantos de esos, no es moco de pavo) y, obviamente, que prefieren no tirar a la basura su experiencia y tecnología en componentes de GPU y apostar por soluciones heterogéneas.
Siendo puristas, el ideal sería una dirección tipo Larrabee homogénea en la que no hiciera falta ningún elemento específico de GPU, sino que todo fuera resuelto por elementos genéricos, pero del dicho al hecho… Igual acaba pasando que un apaño como Fusion llega antes al mercado y con más rendimiento práctico, y reina durante un tiempo.

Sobre el fin del mundo y el calendario maya
cletar
11/10/09
For the love of all that's good and holy--look. As an archaeologist, I'm getting tired of explaining this. Ok, it's like this: the calendar doesn't "run out." It's like the odometer on your car rolling over to 100,000, or the calendar rolling over from 1999 to 2000. It's not a date full of mystical prophesies or anything. The 13th baktun (a time period of about 394 years) ends and the 14th baktun begins. Last time a baktun rolled over in the early 1600s, the world didn't end.
I mean, how many centuries does our calendar have? When does it "run out"? Well, it doesn't. Neither does theirs.

GSB is the new game from UK indie developer 'Positech Games'. It's a strategy / management / simulation game that does away with all the base building and delays and gets straight to the meat and potatoes of science-fiction games: The big space battles fought by huge spaceships with tons of laser beams and things going 'zap!', 'ka-boom!' and 'ka-pow!'. In GSB you put your ships together from modular components, arrange them into fleets, give your ships orders of engagement and then hope they emerge victorious from battle (or at least blow to bits in aesthetically pleasing ways).

Mamoru Oshii produce un AnimeDocumental sobre Musashi Miyamoto
Musashi: The Dream of the Last Samurai (Miyamoto Musashi: Soken ni Haseru Yume) is a samurai animation film coming in summer 2009 from Production I.G. and maverick filmmaker Mamoru Oshii (Ghost in the Shell, The Sky Crawlers). Miyamoto Musashi (1584-1645) was an unrivalled swordsman in the days when internal wars in Japan had virtually ended. Nevertheless, he wrote a master treatise on military strategy, The Book of Five Rings and sought "the way" to enlighten his spirit and cultivate his mind. But could this image have been manufactured by the generations that followed...? Mamoru Oshii will take on an unusual portrayal of this legendary and aloof warrior, between spectacular duels and a tragic life in pursuit of greatness. With The Book of Five Rings as his guide, Oshii will unsheathe the true vision of the greatest swordsman in Japanese history! Medieval chivalry, horsemanship, swordsmanship and the essence of The Book of Five Rings will be pure entertainment!
