About a life, about the whole world.
In 1997, robotic scientist Rodney Brooks predicted a future where sensors and robots would be pervasive, and people could simply tell a door to open. His prognostication has come to pass. Brooks will be onstage at Disrupt NY to discuss what it will take to make the robots of science fiction into reality, how robotics…

Desde la recuperación de la Democracia en 1982, el país ha trabajado en dos grandes proyectos de reforma de la educación sobre la premisa de que de todos, es el mayor desafío del país: La Reforma Educativa de 1994 y la de 2011. Se diga lo que se diga, las dos son complementarias en lo esencial, aunque el enfoque ideológico y algunas cuestiones estructurales aparezcan como antagónicas y enfrentadas.
La Reforma de 2011, igual que la Constitución, tiene como defecto el exceso de palabras que definen y califican, y que pueden llevarnos a la confusión y a perder de vista los aspectos verdaderamente importantes referidos a cantidad y calidad educativas. Este es el recuento de cómo define a nuestra educación la Ley Siñani-Pérez: El derecho a la educación es “universal, productivo, gratuito, integral, intercultural y sin discriminación”. La educación es “unitaria, pública, democrática, participativa, comunitaria, descolonizadora y de calidad, intracultural…

La displasia de cadera es un trastorno congénito (presente al nacer) de la articulación de la cadera. Se produce en uno de cada 1.000 nacidos vivos. La
articulación de la cadera se forma como una articulación de bola y cótilo. En la DCC, el cótilo (o acetábulo) de la cadera puede ser poco profundo, lo que permite que la “bola” del hueso del muslo, también llamada cabeza femoral, se deslice hacia adentro y hacia afuera del cótilo. La “bola” puede salirse en forma parcial o total del acetábulo.
La mayor incidencia de casos de DDC se produce en las primogénitas en cuyos antecedentes familiares existe un familiar cercano con este trastorno.
La displasia de la cadera se considera un “rasgo hereditario multifactorial”. La expresión herencia multifactorial significa que el defecto congénito puede ser provocado por…

wow!!!!
Is it just me, or is there something special about the sound of cow bells ringing through the mountains? It immediately puts a smile on my face. So I was a pretty happy chap when I came across this field of grazing cows on my way back down from Pointe de la Rochette near Annecy.
What struck me most in this scene was the contrast. Not only do the white, leafless trees really stand out against the backdrop of evergreen firs, but the sunlight bathing the field in light provides no warning of the stormy clouds approaching.
I quickly switched out my wide angle lens for a trusty 50-200mm telephoto to snap this shot. It’s not something I use very often, but I’m slowly learning how best to take advantage of it. Do you like to use a zoom lens for landscape photography? Maybe you have some tips? I’d love…
