Before I created my technology industry analyst business, I worked over 20 years in F500 technology companies running products, strategy and marketing. As an employee and as a stint running corporate marketing, what became apparent was that there were companies who “pretended” to do CSR and those who manage it like a business. Cisco Systems’ Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) program, as I wrote here, is impressive. It is the most comprehensive CSR programs I’ve examined, aligned and prioritized to business goals, and is run like a business with real metrics and accountability.
Understanding “Small Nuclear” Energy With Bags Of Rice

La realidad virtual es una tecnología que se está expandiendo a una velocidad de vértigo durante este último año, sobretodo teniendo en cuenta que en los próximos meses llegarán a los mercados las esperadas Oculus Rift o las HTC Vive. Sin embargo, las aplicaciones existentes para las mismas todavía no son tantas como las ganas por sacar al mercado este tipo de gafas.
Sin embargo, era de esperar en que llegaría el día para que algún iluminado le encontrara a las gafas de realidad virtual un tipo de utilidad bastante ociosa, lucrativa, o más bien bastante picante. Ese día ya ha llegado, momento en el que un portal de internet muy conocido ha empezado a colgar vídeos porno para utilizar con la RV.
Pornhub, las VR Goggles y sus vídeos para realidad virtual
No, no es una broma, a partir de hoy mismo y por lo que conocemos gracias a Phonearena, todos los interesados en probar qué tal se ve el porno con este tipo de tecnología ya lo pueden hacer, y además de forma totalmente gratuita. Así pues, quienes poseáis un smartphone Android o iOS, ya podéis experimentar con ello.
El portal en lanzar este “servicio” es Pornhub – cuyo lugar suponemos no necesita de una mayor introducción -, quienes con la ayuda de BaDoink han creado la a partir de ahora muy famosa sección con algunos vídeos en 360 grados (algunos de ellos no llegan a eso). Han prometido que el catálogo va a aumentar poco a poco con el paso del tiempo.
Por si fuera poco, si no habéis adquirido todavía unas Google Cardboard o alguna similar no vais a necesitar adquirirlas, ya que desde Pornhub también regalan las VR Goggles, unas gafas muy similares a las anteriormente comentadas pero aún más simples. Es lógico que no posean una tecnología punta, aunque teniendo en cuenta el uso que se deriva de las mismas, algunos echarán en falta unas Samsung Gear VR para mantenerlas con las correas mantenidas en la cabeza.
Era inevitable que llegara el día en que el porno aterrizara en la realidad virtual, a partir de ahora sólo cabrá esperar cómo evoluciona el mismo y si la forma de consumirlo va a cambiar realmente. ¿Tenéis intención vosotros de probar esta nueva forma de ver el contenido para adultos?
The bigger they are, the harder they are to get together. That’s what Exelon Corp. and Pepco Holdings discovered as they have tried to merge over the last two years. But on Wednesday, the two overcame the final regulatory hurdle.
It’s a $6.8 billion dollar deal that gives Chicago-based Exelon a foothold in eastern markets it would not otherwise have: Washington, D.C., Maryland, Delaware and New Jersey. But it gives the powerhouse something else — a diversified energy portfolio, which will include income from regulated operations that will offset the losses it has suffered on its unregulated merchant nuclear plants.
The deal had gotten the Okay from all prior regulators that include the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission and other state utility commissions. But the District of Columbia had been especially concerned about the impact the deal would have on low income residents and giving up local control to an out-of-state utility. At the same time, environmentalists said the deal was not green enough.
To get it through, the utilities made concessions, essentially saying that they would freeze rates for about three years. The utilities have thus offered to put up about $25 million into a fund to give its customers rate relief and another $20 million into a fund that would allow the public service commission to make grid updates, or use as it pleases.
Happy Near Miss Day! In 1989 an asteroid roughly the size of a mountain came within 500,000 miles of colliding with Earth. Geophysicists estimate that the impact of that asteroid—had it actually collided with Earth—would have released energy equivalent to the explosion of a 600-megaton nuclear bomb. Astronomers didn’t discover the asteroid—or evidence of how close the near miss was—until nine days after the asteroid has passed.
