Long time no writing!
Estive viajando e trouxe algumas dicas na bagagem para passar para alguns amigos.
I was traveling and brought back in the lougage some tips to share with friends.

"Frankfurt(M) Flughafen Fernbf" - Aeroporto de Frankfurt - Frankfurt Airport
é só copiar/colar em "from:" e digitar seu destino em "to:" e clicar em "search connection"
it´s just copy/paste in "from:" and type your destination in "to:" and click on "search connection"
Você pode até comprar o ticket pela web, é bom pois seu lugar fica reservado, você paga pela web, imprime o ticket eletrônico e leva junto com seu carão de crédito para o trem.
You can buy your ticket on-line, it´s good because your seat is reserved, you pay on-line, print your eletronic ticket and take it together with your credit card to the train.
www.aseag.de - Bus in Aachen - Linhas de Onibus em Aachen
Sprechen Sie Deutsch? este site é só em alemão - this site is only in german
clique em - click on - Fahrplan
Start -> "aachen bushof" - ponto de onibus central - central bus station
Ziel -> "wildbach" - ponto destino - destination
Zeit -> Zórras - zTime
Abfahrt ab -> horrárrio de zaída - deparrturre ztime
Ankunft bis -> horrárrio de zchegada - arrival ztime
clique em - click on - (S)uchen
Você vai ver a tabela de horários para a linha(s) que passa pelos pontos escolhidos.
You will get the timetable for the busstops you specified.
wildbach = kackertstr (EDD office) weststrasse = kohlscheid (EDD office) route 47
No Bushof você pode comprar um ticket que vale por toda a semana para andar quanto quiser, diga os pontos que você vai pois é por região e também peça um mapa que vem com todas as linhas de onibus.
In the Bushof you can buy a weekly ticket that you can use as many times you want, don´t forget to say all the stops because they use a region system and also ask the map with all routes.

- 1 digital camera
- Notebook
- Solar plate to recharge all equipments in the list ;-)
Ela me disse que ia comprar um GPS em Katmandu mas ainda não tinha decidido, o mais importante era achar o representante do Thuraya para instalar o software para usar o telefone para conectar na internet.
She told me she would by a GPS in Katmandu but she was not sure yet, but the most important thing was to find a Thuraya representative in order to install the software to connect on the web.

The Eclipse Project Looks Ahead by Daniel H. Steinberg -- EclipseCon revealed the Eclipse project as not just an IDE, but a rich client platform with a flexible architecture, an active community, and a bright future. Daniel Steinberg gives a summary of the week's events.
Eclipse Plugins Exposed, Part 1: A First Glimpse by Emmanuel Proulx -- Many developers use Eclipse out of the box as an IDE, never investigating its powerful extensibility. But as Emmanuel Proulx shows in this first installment of a new series, Eclipse's modular system of plugins allow you to customize it to your suit your development needs.
Eclipse Plugins Exposed, Part 2: Simple GUI Elements by Emmanuel Proulx -- Eclipse is largely composed of plugins, but you can't just write any arbitrary code and have Eclipse magically incorporate it. In part two of his series on Eclipse, Emmanuel Proulx introduces Eclipse's "extension points" by showing how to create toolbar buttons, menu items, and dialogs.
I've been Eclipsed!by James Elliott -- How I learned to stop worrying and love the JDT: Reflections on the Eclipse IDE by a belated convert.
Develop Your Own Plugins for Eclipse, Part 1 by Jérôme Molière -- Part of the appeal of the Eclipse platform is its extensibility -- in Eclipse, almost everything is a plugin, and it's easy to get plugins from third parties or write your own. Jérôme Molière shows how to get started with deploying Eclipse plugins.
Seven Low-Cost Ways to Improve Legacy Code by Robert Simmons, Jr. -- Robert Simmons, Jr. presents seven techniques developed and used in his consulting work that are designed to improve legacy code, without a major investment in man hours or cash. Robert is the author of the recently released Hardcore Java.
Prevalence: Transparent, Fault-Tolerant Object Persistence by Jim Paterson -- Want to persist your objects, with transactional integrity? You probably assume you're going to be using a database, but not so fast--for lighter uses, particularly for prototyping and testing, the idea of "prevalence" may make more sense. Jim Paterson introduces it by way of Prevayler, a popular prevalence framework.
ONJava 2004 in Review: Popular Articles by Chris Adamson -- Editor Chris Adamson takes a look back at some of the most popular articles published on ONJava during the last year.

Educational Games
Um artigo recente da Business week me chamou atenção.
Educational Games Crank Up the Fun- English
Among other things it raises a question on how to keep the game generation interested in boring lectures, it´s realy a tough challenge that schools, universities and traditional jobs are facing.
Entre outras coisas o artigo levanta a questão de como manter o interesse da geração dos games em palestras chatas, é realmente um desafio difícil que as escolas, universidades e o emprego tradicional estão enfrentando.
This article introduced me to Marc Prensky, author of Digital Game-Based Learning (McGraw-Hill). Check one of his articles where he addresses how traditional (old fashion) jobs should change to adapt to the game generation, very interesting!
Esse artigo me apresentou para Marc Prensky, autor do livro Digital Game-Based Learning. Veja um de seus artigos onde ele indica em que os empregos tradicionias (antigos) devem mudar para se adaptar à geração dos games, muito interessante!
I hope modern schools and jobs pay attention to this trend and get prepared for it!
Eu espero que as escolas e os empregos modernos prestem atenção à essa tendência e se prepare para isso!

Linux Router
A friend of mine asked me to search for a router with firewall, check this out!
Eu tenho em casa um Linksys com WiFi que é muito bom, esse foi a primeira coisa que recomendei.
I have at home a Linksys with WiFi, very good indeed, this was the first thing I've recommended.
Além disso existem outras opções muito mais baratas, são os roteadores Linux!
On topo of that there are other options much cheaper, Linux routers!
Coyote Linux Floppy Firewall - FREE
Um disquete de boot e nada mais! É claro que o micro precisa de placas de rede e também precisa ser 486 ou superior mas é só isso!!
Just one floppy disk and that's it! Of course the computer needs network cards and also be 486 or superior but that's all folks!!
IPcop - FREE
Esse pode rodar em um micro somente com flash memory sem disquete, sem HD, sem teclado, sem monitor, sem mouse, sem ventoinha!! sobra alguma coisa?!?!?
This one runs on a computer just with flash memory, diskless, winchesterless, keyboardless, screenless, mouseless, fanless!! is there anything left?!?!?

Google Ads
Eles fizeram isso tão fácil que foi dificil resistir!
Google adsense has guidelines and a tool that generates the code for you, it´s just copy/paste in the right place in your page and that´s it!
Google adsense tem guias e uma ferramenta que gera o codigo para você, é só copiar/colar no lugar certo de sua página e pronto!
Now if you want to have a rich friend just start clicking on those ads, I will be paid for each click.
Agora se você quer ter um amigo rico é só começar a clicar nos anúncios, eu vou receber por cada clique.
