Strengthen and Maintain, by Jose A. Gelado

The first keynote of 2009 brought no big surprises, but it shows an intention to strengthen and consolidate the areas where Apple is doing to support strong pull

in times of crisis. There is little news but if any surprises, as falling prices for each of the songs and the elimination (finally) the DRM in iTunes, the 8 hours of a 17-inch MBP and developments of software packages such as iLife integration with services like Flickr and the ubiquitous geolocalizacion.
The MB is already sold more notebooks in the United States in 2009 and encouraged it to keep in Cupertino squeezing the industry to consolidate. A laptop up to 8 hours is a good incentive for those who work in mobility and a way to keep your notebook users are willing to rely on the brand of apple.

Apple wants to further strengthen the field of online services with iwork.com, a platform-style Google Docs or ZoHo. The competition is tough in this area, Apple will have to offer something more than access and editing between users and computers to documents online if you want to attract users to get more demanding and pay for a service that competitors such as Google are offering free, with more experience of being linked to platforms or programs.
And finally we must highlight? All in one? Mac Box Set, a package with Leopard, iLife and iWork that aims to reach more remolones to updating the system and basic program for most users and not thinking about buying a new computer this year, at least for now, in these times is valued more every euro spent, especially in software.
Without Jobs presentation has lost shine but is a matter of getting used to Phil and hope to see the next new product, beyond the new software and increasing integration with the rest of the iPhone family of Mac

Biological Warfare Against Dengue

In an article published in the journal Science, the scientists explained that they used a bacteria called Wolbachia, one of the most common parasitic microbes to infect mosquitoes. For some time there has

been talk of the possibility of controlling mosquito populations with this parasite, but the latter study showed, at least in laboratory conditions, it is possible. Mosquito vectors of disease are usually not susceptible to the bacteria, so the researchers adjusted for achieving infection.
Dengue, transmitted through Aedes mosquitoes of the family, affects thousands of people annually in tropical countries.
In the experiment, the life of mosquitoes infected with the bacteria was decreased to about 20 days, instead of the approximately 50 days that usually last. This

is important because, once a mosquito acquires the virus from biting an animal or a human being who has the disease, there is an incubation period of one to three weeks before he can pass.
As a result, only older mosquitoes pose a real danger to humans, with regard to dengue, and if it shortens the life of insects chances of infection are reduced.
The bacteria can pass from infected females to their children. In addition, it produces changes infected male only allow them to breed with females infected.
The researchers said the use of Wolbachia could potentially become an inexpensive method to tackle the problem, particularly in urban areas.
But warned that still remains to be seen how well the modified bacteria can be spread outside the laboratory and said that the dengue virus could also be adapted to survive.
