Eran los tiempos del terrible rugido. Los SACM aun resonaban subiendo el Cabrio por las mañanas. Cuando ya se acerca el mediodia, un arenero descendente baja por Gijano, con una 1650 en cabeza, a la moderada velocidad que permitia el lamentable estado de la via. En este tramo hay una pendiente espantosa, creo que llega a 24 milesimas... Saludos al maquinista!

The ancient Great Pyramid of Giza is the last man standing, so to speak, among the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World as listed by Greek historian and scholar, Herodotus and Callimachus, respectively. But have you ever heard of the New 7 Wonders of Nature? It is the new campaign from the New7Wonders Foundation founded by President Bernard Weber with the primary aim of discovering the incredible beauty and variety of our planet. Whats so exciting about it is that the Philippines have a handful of sites (not website, but nature sites) nominated among the Top 77 official seven wonders nominees. From these 77 nominees, a Panel of Experts from the said foundation will choose the 21 finalist, to be announced on 21 July 2009. The 21 finalist will then be put to popular vote. On 1 January 2009, only one national nominee per country will be allowed to proceed: that is the highest ranked in the voting on December 31, 2008. Thats why your vote is so important to make sure that we will have at least one entry among the 77 nominees. Check from this video which Philippine nature sites had made it to the top 77 nominees as of this writing. Heres how you can vote: - You can cast you vote at www.new7wonders.com - But before you vote, check from the same web-page the current latest ranking of the nominees participating to become a New7Wonder of Nature. - From those listings you have to chose your 7 nominees. - As you vote, I suggest you start with the Philippine natural wonder with the ...

1592 The Argentine version of the Islands history states that "Spanish seamen" were the first to sight the island but without giving further details (names, dates etc.). Some claims say that Ferdinand Magellan was the first to see the islands on his voyage around the world but this is false since Magellans route is clearly documented in historical charts to go along the South American east coast, close to the shore, until he hit the Magellan straits, rather than over 1000km out into the Atlantic. A further claim is based on one of Magellans ships having deserting the expedition to return to Spain. While it is true that there was such a ship, there are no original documents claiming the actual sighting of the islands, except for much later speculations. 1690 Captain John Strong, whilst sailing for Chile, becomes first Englander to chart the Islands; Falkland Sound (and hence Islands) named after then First Lord of the Admiralty. 1713 Intense trade rivalry between Spain, Britain and France leads to Treaty of Utrecht; confirms Spains control of South American territories, including the Islands. 1764 Antoine de Bougainville claims Islands in the name of Louis XV for France. Small settlement called Port Louis built on East Falkland. 1765 British Admiralty sends Commodore John Byron; arrives on West Falkland, unaware of the presence of the French, names a spot Port Egmont, raises the Union Flag, plants a small vegetable patch and leaves. 1766 Captain John McBride sent to ...
