The machine tunnelling under London
A giant machine has started burrowing its way under London, carving a new route for cross-Channel trains. Where will it go - and how close will it cut to the capital's labyrinth of tunnels, pipes and passages?

uiiii die brückenquerung wird teurer
can rember that i drived the bridge for 1$. The most expensive bridge crossing in the Bay Area becomes even more costly this weekend. A toll hike that was approved at the end of June is going into effect Sunday on the Golden Gate Bridge. For most cars, the new toll will be $5. Those using FasTrak electronic toll collection will pay $4. The first increase in 11 years is designed to deal with a $452 million dollar budget shortfall.

Polar Bear party?
Scientists can't explain why 40 to 50 bears have converged on area. Large numbers of polar bears have crowded into the Point Barrow area this month, and scientists are at a loss to explain exactly why. Bears were showing up regularly in town last week. And tour groups that visit the whale bone piles at Point Barrow, 12 miles north of town, were seeing 40 to 50 bears instead of the usual five or six.

Eine nicht gerade neue Technologie und selten genutzt: QuicktimePanoramaMovies. Falls euch das Programm mit einem "Upgrade Now" begrüßt: Einfach auf "später"/"later" drücken. (Ich habe auch einige andere PlugIns ausprobiert, aber die sind von der DarstellungsQualität (und vor allem der Absturzsicherheit bei größeren Panoramen) leider nicht so gut wie Quicktime) Panoramen im Netz zeigen gern Traumstrände, Stadtskylines und die anderen Postkartenmotive. Schön und gut. Dies hier sind Abbilder der sensationell unsensationellen Normalität. Je älter die Aufnahme ist, desto interessanter wird's. Ihr seid hier also in einem virtuellen Weinkeller. Schaut einfach in 10 oder 20 Jahren wieder vorbei!
