Black macaque takes self-portrait: Monkey borrows photographer's camera By Daily Mail Reporter Created: 10:08 GMT, 4 July 2011 To capture the perfect wildlife image, you usually have to be in exactly the right place at precisely the right time. But in this instance, David Slater wasn’t there at all and he still got a result. Visiting a national park in North Sulawesi, Indonesia, award-winning photographer Mr Slater left his camera unattended for a while. It soon attracted the attention of an inquisitive female from a local group of crested black macaque monkeys, known for their intelligence and dexterity. Fascinated by her reflection in the lens, she then somehow managed to start the camera. Say cheese: The monkeys were intrigued by their reflection in the camera lens You can be in this one too: The monkey even snapped a shot with photographer David Slater in the frame Chimply marvellous: The images taken by the monkeys at a national park in Indonesia are perfect portraits 'The sound got his attention and he kept pressing it

Un année d'expérimentation de Twitter en classe Catholic church gives blessing to iPhone app 8 February 2011Last updated at 10:59 Pope Benedict XVI has said Catholics should use digital technologies responsibly The Catholic Church has approved an iPhone app that helps guide worshippers through confession. The Confession program has gone on sale through iTunes for £1.19 ($1.99). Described as "the perfect aid for every penitent", it offers users tips and guidelines to help them with the sacrament. Now senior church officials in both the UK and US have given it their seal of approval, in what is thought to be a first. The app takes users through the sacrament - in which Catholics admit their wrongdoings - and allows them to keep track of their sins. It also allows them to examine their conscience based on personalised factors such as age, sex and marital status - but it is not intended to replace traditional confession entirely. Instead, it encourages users to understand their actions and then visit their priest for absolution. Continue reading the main story “Start Quote

Ma onzième année et les suivantes… Dans le cadre d’un nouveau cours d’histoire, nous abordons en classe la décolonisation et la construction de l’Etat Algérien. Le documentaire "la déchirure" diffusé par France 2 ce dimanche constituait un très bon support vidéo à adjoindre à ce cours. J’ai ajouté, dans le cadre de mon cours de français et dans le cadre de nos heures projet (dédiés aux outils web 2.0) une autre dimension à l’exploitation de ce documentaire : La chaîne France 2 (comme l’ensemble du groupe) a une présence sur le réseau social Twitter forte: production pertinente et journalière de tweets qui ne se limite pas à une simple diffusion mais qui permet des interactions fortes avec les tweeteurs-spectateurs. Lorsqu’on pose une question au community manager de ce compte, il y a réponse. La soirée autour de "la déchirure" a engendré une somme très importante de tweets sous la balise #guerredalgerie : tweets que nous avons analysés aujourd’hui en cours. Cette séance a permis à mes élèves: Like this: J'aime chargement…

You Decide: Goldman’s Facebook Pitch or Nigerian Email ‘Opportunity’ - Deal Journal To be offered private stock in Facebook, wealthy clients of Goldman Sachs had to have a spare $2 million lying around. But even the hoi polloi may have a similar pitch sitting in their email inboxes right now. As a first step to drum up investor interest in Facebook stock, Goldman Sachs shot missives to clients with the opaque subject line, “Private Investment,” according to an email reviewed by Deal Journal. We couldn’t help compare it to another solicitation for money, from an anonymous Nigerian who assures you of a giant payout if you help him get back to his home country. Goldman Sachs declined to comment. Of course, unlike Nigerian email scams, the solicitation came from a Goldman money manager rather than a random stranger. GOLDMAN: (Line breaks and emphasis have been added by Deal Journal) ‪In addition, certain information we will reveal to you about the investment opportunity and the related transaction will constitute material nonpublic information about this private company.

How To Turn Google Translate Into Google Beatbox For reasons inexplicable, a “Today I Learned” thread on Reddit has turned into a treatise on how to make Google Translate beatbox for you, among other things. It must have taken some intense experimentation for Redditor Harrichr to get here but he somehow stumbled upon the following combination of steps. 1) Go to Google Translate 2) Set the translator to translate German to German 3) Copy + paste the following into the translate box: pv zk pv pv zk pv zk kz zk pv pv pv zk pv zk zk pzk pzk pvzkpkzvpvzk kkkkkk bsch 4) Click “listen” 5) Be amazed :) Since the original post both the thread and meme have expanded into slight tweaks and variations, including Technocopter, Helicopter and Dubstep. YCombinator user iamdave actually posted a guide to making your own beats: zk = suspended cymbal bschk = snare pv = brush bk = bass tk = flam1 vk = roll tap kt = flam2 kttp = flam tap krp = hi hat tap pv = short roll th = better hi hat thp, ds = instant rimshot.
