Google today paid tribute to guitar legend Les Paul, and did so with becoming famous logo on a guitar that can be played by the Internet with the keyboard and moving the mouse cursor across the strings.

This is an interactive doodle ‘Internet Giant. “Each of the strings of this guitar plays a different note, and as can be seen in several videos posted on YouTube, you can create melodies with them.

Les Paul was born on June 9, 1915 and died on August 12, 2009. He pioneered the development of solid-body electric guitar and multitrack recording.

The instant messaging application WhatsApp has become so popular that he could not take to receive spam. Users of different systems,android and IOS are receiving chain letters warning of a false outage also be encouraged to circulate the text among your contacts.

The messages are a classic chain mail service like Hotmail. Most users ever received an e-mail announcing the closing of your mail account unless you send the same message to all your contacts. This type of spam is often unrecognized and spreads. With the new mobile applications and services, those responsible for this type of “malware” phones have led to such practices.

This week there have been the first shipments of bogus chain letters distributed through WhatsApp. application is very popular among owners of smartphones. For example, in the case of IOS implementation is number one in the list of the most popular in the category of payment.

This success seems to have seduced a ‘pirate’ software and responsible for “malware”, which have begun a campaign of ‘spam’ in the service. The method used is the chain mail. The Users will receive a message from a contact or an unknown number in WhatsApp.

In the message, says WhatsApp servers have been saturated and that will carry out a maintenance task, and encourages users to forward the text to your contacts to spread the news. Otherwise, he warns that WhatsApp cease to be operational.

Through its official account on Twitter, WhatsApp Inc. has confirmed that this message about the service chain that is circulating “is not true.” “Please do not ignore and not forward,” advises the company.

Parrot has announced that its helicopter AR.Drone also be controlled from android, Symbian Bada and also from IOS with the operation since its launch.

Parrot AR.DroneLa E3 being held these days in Los Angeles, was the venue chosen by Parrot to announce the development of control software platform AR.Drone different from Apple. The quadricopter (four propeller helicopter) from Parrot, which was launched a year ago and discussed in PC World Digital in November 2010 can be piloted at the moment, on any device with iOS system and Wi-Fi, ie iPhone, iPod and iPad.

AR.FreeFlight, the application that allows players to fly the AR.Drone, Android will be available in July 2011.

Parrot has recently announced two new games and some accessories that expand the possibilities of AR.Drone as AR.FlyingAce and AR.Race, which bind to AR.Pursuit with the launch of the helicopter

Parrot has also announced an international competition called AR.Drone Challenges. After registering at the company’s Web site, users can compete with others by posting the challenges of video on the site. The first challenge begins on 24 June. Fourteen finalists will be selected to participate in Paris on 1 October.

Do not stop talking about the death of sms through programs such as WhatsApp, to multimedia messaging, it is still unclear, ie it is known that terminanrán become extinct, but not how, when and with another tool, is cheap, or free, and easy to use, the question now arises.

It is true that there is mail or other ways to send a video, but we need at least two applications and management of such agencies for a task that in principle is quite simple, send our voice in a little video to someone, video messages. Well, Sayclip is a solution for smartphones, including our android and between iphones and also for those who do not have one, can see it on the web. A large and very good idea.

Sayclip is allowing someone to send a video of our contacts in Facebook, as it is integrated with this network. Eliminate the barrier of the call, which is sometimes upset by the loss of privacy involved, here we control what we send and when we want. It’s the same example that really worked why twitter if they were already thousands of other services and did much more than send text …

Thus, video receivers will be notified by Facebook and will see the video on the iPhone or Android application (it is in beta and only some are using it, but here you have the link for your mail and command them might have asked and get yours) or watch the video that we sent on a special website.

It is very simple and so we could try it, works fast and natural as it should, make the video and send it in just three clicks. We’ll see if the idea will work, because there are some other applications with the same concept that seems to have done such Socialcam curdle.

The Jews celebrate beginning tonight with the holiday of Shavuot, which commemorates the giving of the Torah and they tend to eat dairy to remember God’s promise of a land rich in “milk and honey “.

The celebration begins with the sunset and will last throughout the day until sunset tomorrow in Israel, while being held for two days in the world.
Shavuot literally means “weeks” for the seven that must elapse after Easter until its conclusion, although it is known in Christianity as “Pentecost”, a voice that comes from the Greek for “fiftieth” or “50 days”.

“It’s a party in which we remember the giving of the Torah. 3,300 years ago the Lord our God descended to Mount Sinai and gave us the Tanach (Pentateuch), the five books of the Torah and the Ten Commandments,” he told Efe Rabbi the Western Wall, Shmuel Rabinovich.
He was referring to the popular image product of the Judeo-Christian iconography which Moses received the Ten Commandments, but in Judaism believes that God also sent the entire Torah, or Jewish law and not only written but oral tradition.

Considered one of the three festivals of pilgrimage to Jerusalem, Shavuot complete with Passover and the Feast of Booths, the holiday commemorating the biblical Exodus and the wanderings of the Jewish people after leaving Egypt.
Moreover, the days that must elapse after the Passover, which marks the exodus itself, until receipt of the tables of the law, for the biblical Israelites constituted a period of spiritual purification to receive the Torah, the foundation of Jewish religious law .
“On this day we become people in the children of our Lord, we become one family and we get our values, customs and Jewish tradition,” says Rabbi Rabinovich.

The Old Testament also associates Shavuot with the harvest of wheat and fruit and marks the time when the first fruits were brought to the Holy Temple as a thanksgiving (Exodus 23:16, 34:22 and Numbers 28:26).
At present, the absence of that shrine, Jews tend to go to the Wailing Wall, which was the western wall on which stood the Temple to pray early in the day, even still am.

The festival is also characterized by the consumption of dairy products, cheese being the favorites, a use that meets various rabbinical explanations.
One is that the biblical Song of Songs refers to the sweet nourishing value of the Torah, saying: “The sweetness of Torah flows from your lips, like honey and milk under your tongue lies” as well as another passage in which God promised that in the Land of Israel flowed “milk and honey.”
Another verse of Exodus juxtaposes the holiday of Shavuot with the prohibition of mixing milk or meat derivatives, which adds to the legend that upon receiving the Torah on Mount Sinai, the Jews knew then meet obligations Jewish dietary laws and the sacrifice of animals.
As there was no time to prepare meat “kosher” that met these requirements, they decided to eat dairy products instead.
Like other years, the Israeli media published on the occasion of the feast statistics on consumption of dairy products in the Jewish state, which last year amounted to NIS 9,000 million (1,816 million euros).

As recent developments in the market can be found in recent years and are gradually gaining Dutch cheeses like Gouda or Manchego, which only a few decades ago were banned in the country and now introduced produced in a “kosher” that is, fulfilling the precepts of Jewish food.
The holiday of Shavuot was the first in which the Jews could return to pray at the Wailing Wall in 1967 after the capture of the eastern part of Jerusalem in the Six Day War, an event which commemorates 44 th anniversaries today. EFE

One novelty of the presentation of a few hours ago Apple’s new application has been integrated into iOS 5, IMessage.

This application meets all the services you need to chat with other contacts. The basic function is, keep in touch with other users and can send text messages, pictures, videos, your location or even contacts from your address book to others.

Will be integrated into the messaging application iOS so far only served to send SMS messages, which since the advent of WhatsApp is something that many remain in oblivion. But the idea of ​​Apple seems to be something similar to what they have done with FaceTime on the iPhone, to integrate this service into another. In the case of iPhone in the phone application.

So that we understand, when you go to send a message to a contact from an iPhone you can do to your phone number (SMS or MMS) or directly to your Apple ID account. Just like the video of FaceTime.

Definitely this application, along with other services such as WhatsApp, BlackBerry Messenger and others, make the most evident decline of the use of text messaging. Farewell to the hefty bills sent by the operators to send messages like crazy.

But look a little further, especially as it is “IMessage”.
If Apple is the BBM

Yes, the first thing that came to mind when describing it was IMessage at WWDC was “this is like the BlackBerry Messenger.” And it is. It is a copy of BlackBerry Messenger, to copy the role of just being compatible with a type of terminals.

The big difference between BBM and IMessage is the terminals that are compatible, but above all a marked difference will be long term, when the BlackBerry Messenger users see this application and the iPhone can see a new terminal to be updated.

Is BlackBerry in trouble? Well, the BlackBerry has been in trouble last time with WhatsApp in the instant messaging landscape. Although the number of BlackBerry users increase in low-end terminals (BlackBerry Curve), users of iPhone and Android are growing at a much faster rate.

No, not the killer BBM

But definitely this is not the BBM Killer that some would call it. IMessage not kill anything because it is a closed instant messaging application to a platform.

If your iPhone is the most desirable and famous of the time (this time since it lasts for 4 years …), but you can not say it’s the only one in the party. Android and BlackBerry are two other major smartphone platforms, that together, these three platforms share one thing: their own messaging application.

Android with Google Talk, and now BlackBerry BBM IMessage IOS. Google Talk all but closed. That is not the future because the future is distributed on different operating systems.

No, not the killer WhatsApp

Nor, IMessage not kill at all WhatsApp by the simplest of reasons: it’s multiplatform.

IOS is an operating system on the rise thanks to iPhone and iPad, but Apple will be unable to compete with Android in the level of handsets sold by a mathematical reason: several companies releasing more than half a dozen terminals every half a year is impossible with one terminal per year.

That’s where the power of Android, which are many, and distributed them united by the same operating system. In this case the big point is that you already have WhatsApp iOS, Android or BlackBerry, you can talk to the rest of your friends.

Steve Jobs left the ostracism once again to present the new version of Apple’s operating system for iPhones and tablets, and tell what it is icloud, the new music service in the cloud. The service launched yesterday at the United States offers the ability to save up to 20 thousand songs and download them to any device “authorized” (Mac, mobile or PC) for $ 25 per year.

Although Google offers the same service for free with Google Music, Apple wants to maintain its service in the world of your operating system, its equipment and its consumers, relying on the habit of using the services offered by large companies in Silicon Valley. icloud service quickly updated with the world through Apple iTunes, as authorized by up to ten different devices.

What if one day everything-absolutely everything-is connected? When the network was planned, no one thought that one day would be over Internet addresses. More than a few tricks to expand them, it is known that every computer connected to the network requires its own management to be “seen” and communicate with others. The protocol to communicate was created by Vinton Cerf (now Google) and Robert Kahn in the mid 70s. In the early 80s, were connected universities in the United States and its military sector, only later rose some businesses, other governments, other universities, other companies, later users with personal computers, smart phones not long ago and finally artifacts of all kinds.

In the not too distant future “is expected”, refrigerators, televisions, cars, cabinets, medical monitoring systems, and God knows what else you do not even know, are connected together, chatting, sending data and giving information make decisions that may not understand. And, of course, everyone will want to have your own internet address (known as IP addresses, Internet Protocol). The address format that was created with the Internet is called IPv4, and has just under 4300 million addresses. The organization that “maintained” the Internet addresses called Icann, but last year is over. Were completed. No more. Now there are only reserves in the regional organizations (such as LACNIC for Latin America, and to vary the United States is the country that uses Ips and more reservations available). Although there are still directions for a couple of years, it is clear that the IP needed to be reinvented.

Do not panic: the solution and was designed by network engineers and hosted by the Internet Society, are IPv6 addresses. The amount of numbers that can accommodate the new format for Internet addresses is so great that practically no one can say. It is something like a 340 with 36 zeros. As an Internet address to every grain of sand in the Sahara Desert. It is assumed that, if all goes well, and not some other planet conquest populous or someone comes to give an IP to every cell in the body, or the DNA of a human being this many addresses should last forever.

The address format change will gradually, and, if all goes well, the end user (us, bah) should realize that something has changed. In recent years, especially the big Internet providers in the area of ​​Asia have begun to implement IPv6 addresses, but time is short and large Internet content players are willing to try, all together at the same time-how Internet work for IPv6 addresses. Tomorrow is the day. Is the IPv6 Day: Google, Facebook, Yahoo, Cisco, Microsoft Bing, Terra, Mozilla, universities, service providers and a thousand companies around the world will “turn on” the new version of IP addresses to see what happens: they will test the future. “It just should work,” said Martin Levy of Hurrican Electric the XV meeting in Cancun.

The migration from IPv4 to IPv6 was one of the central themes in the LACNIC meeting, the organization that manages IP addresses for the region. There were, for example, Diego Veca Facebook and Jason Fesler Yahoo! explaining the effort involved for these companies “on” new IP addresses. Basically, it is gradually coordinate the global deployment of a new way of communicating computers together. The task is colossal, a global chal-lenges perhaps never happened before and it is likely that in some years some of the artifacts we use are obsolete, in fact, many smart phone applications do not support IPv6. “The issue is that people stay for years with equipment that could be obsolete before long, but sooner or later it will migrate,” says Levy.

How did we reach this situation? “Internet was never intended to be so big. In 1981 no one imagined that they could come to end these numbers. But in the years to come, we will have internet in almost everything, even things we have not thought about, “says Levy, who is in charge of the transition of addresses in a business connection (backbone) more largest U.S.. Hurrican Electric was born in 1994, it provided hosting and some other services and today manages connections on three continents. Levy says that this time the numbers are not going to end and that changes will be gradual but inevitable. “The transition to IPv6 is something that will inevitably occur, but most people never will know. The morning will be a non-event, “says Levy. The expected error margin of 0.05 percent, to Facebook about 30 thousand people, who can not access their accounts for a few seconds.

Specifically, in Badajoz, the alert will run from 10.00 to 20.00 hours by rain, which could accumulate 15 mm in one hour, and by storms, both phenomena in the areas of Barros, Serena and La Siberia.

In turn, in Cáceres, a yellow alert will last from 10.00 to 20.00 hours, by rain, which could accumulate 15 mm in one hour, and storms that would be recorded in the northern province, Tajo, Alagon, and Montánchez Villuercas.

112 Center recommends navigate the roads with the utmost care possible with special attention to potential landslides; not cross flooded roads, no parking in dry riverbeds or on the banks of rivers, and always carry a phone to be reported emergency with the Emergency 112.

For its part, nationally, a total of 34 provinces are on yellow alert (risk) by coastal winds, storm and rain that will leave a build up to 40 liters per square meter (l / m 2) in an hour, according to predicting the Meteorological Agency (AEMET).

Specifically, Almería is on alert for coastal winds, Cantabria, the three Basque provinces, Burgos, Soria and Mallorca are placed on alert for rain, Valencia and Murcia are the storm, and Navarra, La Rioja, the three Aragonese provinces, Madrid, Castilla-La Mancha, Catalonia, Extremadura, Cadiz, Cordoba, Granada, Jaén and Málaga they are by rains and storms.

In this way, there will be light to moderate showers in the eastern Bay of Biscay, northeast quadrant, central and Baleares. These rains will occasionally be accompanied by strong storms, which also can be persistent in parts of the Iberian System.

More weak, precipitation may occur at any point of the peninsula, Ceuta and Melilla, but will be less likely in the west, where from start to recall the afternoon. In the Canaries, light rain is likely in the northern islands of higher profile and slightly cloudy skies in the rest. Also, morning fog patches formed in Galicia.

On the other hand, the winds blow from weak to moderate north and west of the Peninsula and Balearic Islands, with strong intervals along the Andalusian coast and the Canaries.

Finally, experience a decline in temperatures ranging from mild to moderate, except in the Mediterranean and the Canary Islands, areas where the thermometers are maintained without significant changes.

Almost every time Steve Jobs appears on stage with something with a point of amazing. In today’s world of technology, it is becoming increasingly difficult, but Apple CEO again do it again. Her magic this time is called icloud, a device synchronization service, file storage and update that allows one to walk away from what appliance is (computer, phone, tablet), because he always carries around with him.

“Many think the cloud is a hard drive on the Internet,” declared Jobs in the Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) in San Francisco just before the show that Apple can offer a lot more. One of the cornerstones of this new free service is that when something changes in one device, for example, an address, telephone, or document, the changes are transferred to other devices that you want to connect. So when does a picture with the phone instantly, and has been on the iPad, or you can play on your computer or view it on TV if you have an Apple TV device.

The whole process runs automatically and without having to connect anything. “Because it’s integrated applications, do not even have to think about it, it just works,” said a proud Jobs. The service is free and carries icloud 5 GB file storage and e-mail account without advertising. This contrasts sharply with the 79 euros it cost the MobileMe service, which it replaces, and had not met expectations.

The tag also comes with iTunes. Any purchase that is made from a device becomes, instantly, in the rest. To accomplish all this amazing display, which will require an enormous capacity to process data from Apple, the Apple company has created three new giant centers for only icloud. Only in the last of them in North Carolina has invested more than $ 500 million.

Icloud services will be available next fall, coinciding with the launch of iOS 5, the new operating system that Apple also unveiled yesterday in San Francisco and equip the iPhones and iPads. This new version, with more than 200 new features, incorporates Notification Center, a way to view and manage real-time everything comes to the phone, whether SMS, messages on Facebook, Twitter, or even if the temperature has changed.

Apple has also created for your mobile messaging application which you can add photos and videos, as well as a subscription service on digital publications. The digital kiosk called Newstand and allows new items and updates to the copies automatically loaded so that the user and are found upon entry.

Another novelty is the consideration that will be necessary to have a computer to use an iPhone or an iPad. The program updates are automatic and wireless. The Apple mobile operating system will also allow any game or video viewable on the TV wirelessly. In addition, Twitter will be fully integrated into the system. IOS 5 will be available from next autumn.

The first of the new features Apple introduced yesterday in San Francisco, but perhaps the last in order of importance, is the new PC operating system Mac OSX Lion, which already knew many features, but it is basically to exploit much of the iPad and strengthening an operating system already very solid and practical. Only cost about 25 euros and will not be sold via DVD, just by downloading from the App Store.

Microsoft has offered few surprises during the conference that he delivered at E3 in Los Angeles. The company has decided to focus its efforts on Kinect, the peripheral that launched late last year for Xbox 360, and has submitted a set of games that make heavy use of this camera with motion sensor and microphone. However, it has been the announcement of ‘Halo 4′, a franchise emblem of the console, which has led the applause from the audience. Aware of this, the Redmond has closed his talk showing the first pictures of this unique title, as announced, will be the start of “a new trilogy and will be available for Christmas 2012.

As for Kinect developments have been confirmed rumors that had long been making war. In this regard, it noted the announcement of ‘Fable: The Journey’, a spin-off of one of the most successful role-playing games console from Microsoft. Has been its creator, the BAFTA winner Peter Molyneux, who has filed a game where we can, among other things, driving a horse cart with our gestures and cast spells with your hands to destroy the enemies.

For its part, the company Crytek has shown few images of another title for Kinect, ‘Rise’. Set in ancient Rome, we use our hands to attack like a sword and defend blandiéramos like having a shield. Released in 2012. Hand in hand with Microsoft’s own will ‘Kinect Sports Season 2′, a collection of sports mini-games such as golf and skiing to arrive later this year. It will not be the only sequel since Harmonix, developer of Rock Band will launch the second part of the dance game “Dance Central.” Finally the legendary Tim Schafer, creator of such classics as ‘The Secret of Monkey Island and Full Throttle’, presented the first images of ‘Once Upon a Monster’, a game based on ‘Sesame Street’.

Beyond Kinect exclusive games, have also produced several titles that will be compatible with the peripheral. Among them are the anticipated “Mass Effect 3 ‘, where we can choose the options dialog and give orders to our team by voice,’ Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon: Future Soldier, allowing us to choose weapons and aim with our hands , and several EA Sports titles like FIFA, Madden and Tiger Woods.
Voice Search

To make matters worse, Microsoft has ensured that its console interface even more compatible with Kinect and added a voice browser to dive among the contents, as well as a series of tools that can, among other things, painting, drawing and scanning objects with simple gestures.

Now, what remains for those who have not acquired the peripheral? Well apart from ‘Halo 4′, little else. Has announced the date of the driving simulator Forza Motorsport 4, which will arrive on October 11. And he has confirmed a high definition remake of ‘Halo: Combat Evolved, “the first installment of the series that came out ten years ago for the Xbox, and a version of’ Minecraft ‘, an indie PC game for the console. Finally, Microsoft has announced that YouTube will implement the service on its platform.

A group of men who work halfway between science and mining in South Africa has found the first animals capable of living deep in the bowels of the earth. They are several species of worms the size of a grain of sand and whose very existence turned upside down was the vision of the ecosystems of the deep crust.

Among the creatures, rescued from commercial boreholes in mines of gold and diamonds, is a completely unknown species so far, but related to other worms that live on Earth. Its discoverers have called Halicephalobus mephisto, in reference to Mephistopheles, “one who does not love the light” and represents “the demon king of the underworld”, say the researchers in their study, published today in Nature. The new creature, a nematode, was found in water extracted from rocks 1.3 kilometers deep. Has trident but not one of its unique features is the long, tapered tail.

It was thought that the Earth’s deep biosphere, which extends to hundreds or thousands of meters underground, was inhabited only by single-celled organisms like bacteria. These beings are capable of living in hostile environments so that researchers such as geologist at Princeton University (USA) Tullis Onstott, who leads this work, say they are “on the edge of life.” His team’s study to find clues about how life might be like on Mars. The discovery of the worms, multicellular animals, miles underground opens a new order of possibilities about how they may be aliens.

The Mephisto and other species of worms of less than one millimeter were recovered from depths of between 0.9 and 3.6 miles. After rescue, Onstott’s team has found that feeding of the bacteria with which they share the earth’s crust. Reproduction is asexual and are able to live without oxygen just over 40 degrees.

“At this depth there is little organic matter to be fed, so the existence of a multicellular organism is necessary to rethink everything,” says David Fernandez, a researcher at the Center for Astrobiology CSIC studying bacteria Rio Tinto (Huelva), a of Martian ecosystems on Earth.

The president of the society, Modesto King said at a news conference that teens “have improved” prevention behaviors to use more methods that prevent pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases, and age at onset of sexual intercourse is in 16 years, according to studies conducted between 2005 and 2009.

Along with this data, King lamented that Spain remains a “risk” of 400,000 women who have “risky practices” as “inconsistent condom use, although it has been detected in recent years have increased other contraceptives that provide “greater security”, and hence are not always noted that teens who have risk behaviors.

“The biggest risk factor is unpredictable, ” he said, while emphasizing that every time you build a “higher education culture”in this matter.

In Congress, involving 150 experts, also highlighted that only 12 percent of women of Castile and Leon, aged between 14 and 26 years are vaccinated against cervical cancer, which stated as “Worryingly, taking into account that medical societies do advise that all.”

The conference is dedicated to teens, and study tables entitled ‘Sexuality in adolescence’, ‘Gender violence and teens’and’ Adolescents and prevention of cervical cancer. “

More than nine million Portuguese who are called to the polls on Sunday in his hand have the choice of government that must deal the next three years with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the European Union (EU), which closely monitored compliance with the hard economic program that accompanies the rescue of 78,000 million euros. Polls point in the final stretch of the campaign a majority of right in Parliament.

Sunday’s elections are the elections of revalidation of the prime minister and Socialist Party candidate, José Socrates, who was forced to resign last March, just over a year after being re-elected prime minister of Portugal . The early elections marked the end of a minority government that failed to go ahead with the latest austerity plan agreed with Brussels that was moving away from a bailout.

On 23 March, all opposition parties turned their backs on government’s adjustment plan in Parliament, which was the fourth in the last year. The rejection of the far left parties, which together account for 17 percent of the vote, was expected by his criticism of an executive more concerned with the dictates of Brussels meet the needs of the population. What was not expected was the negative vote of the PSD, the main center-right party.

The leader of the Social Democratic Party (PSD), Pedro Passos Coelho, went to support a minority government in its action against the crisis, as was seen in the vote of the State Budget for 2011, triggering a government crisis that led to the call for early elections. Meanwhile, the public debt situation became untenable and Jose Socrates was forced to seek a bailout on 6 April the EU and the IMF.

A delegation from the European Central Bank (ECB), European Commission (EC) and International Monetary Fund (IMF) landed in Lisbon a few days later to study in depth the situation of Portuguese public accounts and agree the toughest economic program Portugal recalled in order to reduce the public deficit to 5.9 percent of GDP in 2011 to 4.5 percent in 2012 and 3 percent in 2013. As a result, Portugal go into recession over the next two years at 2 percent.

The first tranches of the loan with the IMF and the EU, 12,000 million, came quickly the last two weeks of May, on the campaign trail, to the difficulties acknowledged by the Finance Minister Fernando Teixeira dos Santos, to address the financial obligations of the state in June. The second tranche of aid, in August, is subject to a series of reforms and measures that will face the new government in record time.

Polls point at the start of the campaign to a close result on Sunday and the high number of undecided voters (around 20 percent) left all possibilities open, making it difficult for policy analysts forecasting. So while the leaders of the PSD and the PS toured the country calling for an absolute majority, a CDS-PP pragmatic, center-right, trying to put the left of the PSD providing you have in your hand the key of government.

However, in the home straight the balance tilted to a mostly right-wing parliament and polls gave the SPD a lead of 5.4 points on the PS, thereby encouraging the formation of a coalition government PSD / CDS for The parliamentary majority that claim all sectors of society to meet the harsh demands of the ‘troika’. It would not be so good for Jose Socrates, who would be jeopardized its continuation as general secretary of the PS.

FIRST TASK

In any case, whatever the winning candidate will not have much time for negotiations. Upon entering office, likely in July, the new government will have less than a month to meet the demands of the memorandum agreed between the Portuguese Government, the IMF and the EU, with the support of the PS, PSD and CDS-PP . The far left parties, who refused to participate in negotiations with the ‘troika’, are beyond any possibility of government.

The fact that whoever wins the election this Sunday will have to meet each and every one of the measures included in the memorandum signed with the ‘troika’ campaign has made in a continuous exchange of accusations over who led the country intervention, no actual proposals and fruitful discussions, although the wear Jose Socrates after six years of government seems to have favored the conservative Pedro Passos Coelho.

The new government has until the end of July to prepare a proposal for change in labor costs, which would pass through the reduction of employer benefits to Social Security, an issue discussed in the campaign. Socrates does not give figures although it signed with the ‘troika’ a “substantial reduction” of this rate, while Passos Coelho about four percentage points, but not how to compensate for this reduction in revenue.

It will also have to find a buyer nationalized Portuguese Business Bank (BPN) before the end of July, first of all presenting an action plan to Brussels for sale. Also, you must perform a detailed report of the State’s business structure and costs, proposing specific cuts and debt ceilings for these companies before 2012, and give impetus to the judicial process bogged down.

The most controversial will surely hand labor reform, in which the ‘troika’ calls for reducing the compensation for termination of new permanent contracts from 30 to ten days per year worked, up to a maximum of twelve months. On temporary contracts, the proposal is to reduce from 36 to ten days for contracts of up to six months, and 24 to ten days the compensation of temporary contracts of more than six months.

As always, Florentino Perez does not make a single move without having it all tied up and securely fastened. And the dismissal of Jorge Valdano is no exception. The Real Madrid president has ensured that the departure of former director general sports have no such consequences. The formula, as it did with Manuel Pellegrini, is to pull the book.

Valdano has been 2.5 million settlement by the two-year contract he had left. In return, Florentino has made him promise on everything lived quietly along this season at the club. According unveils `Don Ball” on its website, the Argentine has had to undertake not to reveal the problems encountered with Jose Mourinho in recent months, while it has had to pledge loyalty to the president. This means giving working with opposition groups and work to promote a future candidacy.
