We are sooooo F***ed/Estamos bien jodidos

Hell yes. I was happily navigating through my preferred apocalyptic websites and all that stuff, when my atention is drawn to this link:
-----
Pues sí, estaba yo alegremente navegando por mis páginas webs sobre apocalipsis preferidas y demás , cuando doyme cuenta de este enlace:

After reading I do seriously think about the convenience of creating a family and all that. I was stunned cold. And then, we too have to consider the distinct possibility of the start a new glaciation era
As I said, We are so F***ed.

Tras leerlo me planteo seriemente lo de fundar una familia y todo eso. Frio me he quedado. Y encima hemos de lidiar con la seria posibilidad del inicio de una nueva glaciación.
Lo dicho, jodidos estamos.

Gary Gygax cruzó el velo

Gary Gygax, el creador de Dungeons & Dragons (Dragones y Mazmorras), y de la difunta TSR (absorbida por Wizards of the Coast) murió ayer a los 69 años de edad de un aneurisma.

Como Aficionados a los Juegos de Rol, dediquemos unos cinco minutos de silencio por aquel que hace ya 35 años inició un hobby al que dedicamos mucho de nuestro tiempo.

Para una Biográfica sumaria, ver el siguiente enlace a la wikipedia

Ardunia pervive!

Para los que aún se interesan por cierta ambientación que se cuece desde hace una temporada. comunícoles que se sigue gestando. La buena noticia es que el mapa famoso ya esta casi finalizado. junto con el sistema planetario y el cluster estelar al que pertenece Dana (el sistema en el que se encuentra Ardunia). La verdad, el cielo nocturno es espectacular Existe una área , el "Manto de Dana", que ocupa casi todo el hemisferio norte.

Para todo esto he usado la siguietne suite de creacion de mapas:

Fractal Mapper 7.0
Astrosynthesis 2.0

de NBOS software

Aparte de esto, estoy creando una wiki de Ardunia. Más información proximamente

Limpiando la Alacena

Pues si. Me ha dado un pronto y ahora estoy liberándome de la porquería que he acumulado en los ultimos 10 años. Cuando uno acaba hasta los mismos de ciertas situaciones, no hay nada más satisfactorio que investigar tus cajas de mudanza acumuladas en casa de tus papás (frustacion grande cuando eres de la edad de Cristo y debes volver al nido por motivos económicos) y decir "¡A TOMAR POR SACO CON ESTO!",lanzándolo desde un tercer piso.

Y luego ir a visionar una película de la que sabes que tendrás toda la sala para tí, que pasas mucho de socializar, y sonreir un poco con lo cabrona pero bonita que es la vida.

SPUTNIK was launched 50 years ago

So what? some will say.

Well for starters you wouldn't be reading this if sputnik had not existed, as ARPA, who created ARPAnet was founded october 1957 as a response to the "Red Menace". One match point for Space Age :)

It also allowed people to look up and think. "Hey! we can go spacey!" and then create a new trend in culture. We as whole in the industrial bit of mother earth wouldnt be the same without this litle ball flying over our heads.

And of course, there would be no google earth..,

For me this litle ball was and is a breakthrough, a needle in the balloon of ignorance and isolationism. It forces to make you move, as it shows that in space there are NO boundaries, no frontiers. So lift up a beer and shout SPUTNIK! tonight, and when you look at the stars next time, think how the sky changed 50 years ago.


Thoso who want the cold facts check this ESA link about how they will commerate this day

Celebration of Sputnik anniversary at ESA

and of course the inheritors of the ones who started all this:

Roskosmos

Why not NASA? . Well, I'm EUROPEAN, and the SPUTNIK was a SOVIET UNION satellite. no USA involved, except in their scare :)

Back to business!

After a year without posting anything, I am back!

Not that I had much to put on a positive side on my blog. Currently I am planning an update on the Ardunia world rpg background, with the planetary level map and nightviews being on its way and looking good! (in colour, of course)

On my particular matters , I have started another jobhunt. Yes, six months ago the company that i worked for was "bankrupted", so i went redundant. Well, with time as judge, I feel it was a necessary step for me to get out of there. Now my brain and motivations are clearer and cleaner. Losing my optimism for a job is something that I am not going to allow to happen again. Plus I have learned a lot about job psychology... Lessons you learn lessons you do not forget

As a bonus, my now cute ex girlfriend decided that I was not reliable enough for her and decided to give it a break and a thought. So back to the start box and search for another soulmate.. duh! At least I lost some weight due to that :)) So ladies, this cat is back (yeah like if I was going to get a date through here XD )...

Ah!

Para los habituales que me leen: SI , puedo dirigir una partida, asi que mandadme un SMS o un emilio. Además, ahora estoy en casa de mis padres, asi que no tengo internet aparte de lo que pueda hacer desde un cyber. Aburr!

Holidays till the 20th

Well well, , due to medical reasosn , I am starting a few days leave. Actually it will be some needed , if forced R&R&R (Rest, relax, Reconsider) time.

It will also give me some time to fill this blog with some more info as I have had it a bit "forgotten" for a while. :)

Anyway, hello to all over there
