Malinalco

Malinalco is a beautiful place, it has a great landscape and if you like going to quiet, quiet, so quiet place you're going to really like it.

It's a small town, with a church and every sunday a "Tianguis" takes place (something like a market but it's located through 6 or 7 streets in average)

I like too much that place, is like to disconnect from the outside world, have funfor a while and enjoy the landscape :-P

here you have many pictures from there. If you have the opportunity to go I bet you won't get afraid of it.

Kill Hannah

Looking for new and good music, I found this band named Kill Hannah.

I've heard their album: "Until there's nothing left of us."

Kill Hannah is a band with a futurist sound, they have a singular sintetizer used on their songs. Just as an example if you listen the Intro, Believer and Collapse from that album you'll get what I'm talking about. :-P

Looking for information about them I found the following directly from the wikipedia:

Members (currently):

• Mat Devine (April 16, 1974 - ), vocals, guitar
• Jonathan Radtke (September 17, 1982 - ), guitar
• Dan Wiese (February 12, 1976 - ) guitar
• Greg Corner (June 20, 1974 - ) bass
• Elias Mallin, touring drummer

The name of the band "Hannah", comes from an ex-girlfriend name of the vocalist Mat Devine. After the fallout with Hannah, Mat printed up stickers to place on "In a Jar UK" 7" records bearing the name "Kill Hannah". Several hundred un-stickered versions are known to exist, with approximately 20 bearing the Kill Hannah sticker

Their LP's are:

1. The Beauty in Sinking Ships (1996)
2. Here are the Young Moderns (1998)
3. American Jet Set (1999)
4. For Never and Ever (October 14, 2003)
5. The Curse of Kill Hannah (compilation of previously released material) (May, 2004)
6. Until There's Nothing Left Of Us (August 01, 2006)

You can get more information about them on their Official WebSite


They have a nice sound, and their lyrics are not complicated at all, I consider them a band as Garbage or similar, their sound is not so heavy and not too soft. Maybe a good band when you need something quiet but with good enough guitar rifts.

I didn't found videos of them to share, but you can watch them on their official site.

On my favorite songs are:
Collapse
Believer
Lips like Morphine
Outro
and their cover of "Under the milky way".

A funny commercial from EDS trilogy

This commercial was released a time ago, if I'm not wrong it has 4 years (at least)
hehehehehe

It tries to show an analogy about working with a lot of information, multiple programs and things like that when you are a Computational Systems Engineer (or similar) and you work for as a consultant.

I'm looking for the other ones, there should be 3 commercials in total, if you have it or you know where to watch it, please let us know :-P

What do you want to do in this 2007?

We have begun a new year, now it's time for 2007.

As usually the people say: A year with expectations, victories, success and more. More promises than in 2006.

Surprises, achievements and things like that will happen on this 2007 but don't forget desillusions, sadness and their opossite.

I hope you'll achieve all your goals on this 2007, my best from me to you.

For this year I have some of the following intentions:

• Travel to another country at least by work purposes
• Modify my car (the crow of the storm) and get a better performance
• To know more people, and more places from Mexico.
• To be an MCSD (Microsoft Certified Solution Developer), currently I'm only a MCP (Microsoft Certified Professional), obviously before I must be a MCAD (Microsoft Certified Applications Developer)
• To buy a console of third generation.
• To do more excercise and maybe I'll apply on a Sport club or something like that
• At least to run on 5 Rallies (that's why I need a better performance on my car :-P)

Well, they seem to be good enough for this year, and I hope to complete all of them.



Best Regards for you and your family.

Outside of Mexico City

The latest days I've spent my time traveling to places near to Mexico City (1 hour of distance aprox. if you travel by car).

I got the following photos using a Sony Ericsson W810i and its 2.0 MegaPixels Camera.

I hope you enjoy them (as you can see I'm not used to take too much pictures, it's just for a brief memory)

La Marquesa, Estado de México:
the landscape is beautiful.


Picture of the: "Iztaccihuatl" a volcano from México.
Picture taken on "Ameca Meca" a nice and quiet town near to Mexico City





I'll bring more pictures on the future from Malinalco, another quiet town from Mexico, Estado de México, if you want to rest and forget about the daily stress, hehehehehe
