solution," Qatari Prime Minister Sheikh Hamad Bin Jassim Bin Jabr Al-Thani said, according to Syrian state television.

The latest violence occurred as opposition leaders called for a nationwide general strike, and embattled Syrian President Bashar al-Assad huddled with other regional leaders at an Arab League Ministers meeting. The meeting "was honest and friendly," and the group "felt that the Syrian government wants to work ... to reach a solution," Qatari Prime Minister Sheikh Hamad Bin Jassim Bin Jabr Al-Thani said, according to Syrian state television.

Boeing 787 Dreamliner



The Boeing 787 Dreamliner makes its inaugural flight.



The Boeing 787 Dreamliner is a long-range, mid-size
wide-body, twin-engine jet airliner developed by Boeing Commercial Airplanes.

It seats 210 to 290 passengers, depending on the variant. Boeing states that it is the company's most fuel-efficient airliner and the world's

first major airliner to use composite materials for most of its construction.[4] The 787 consumes 20% less fuel than the similarly-sized Boeing 767.

[5] Some of its distinguishing features include a four-panel windshield, noise-reducing chevrons on its engine nacelles, and a smoother nose contour.

The aircraft's initial designation was 7E7, prior to its renaming in January 2005.[6] The first 787 was unveiled in a roll-out ceremony on July 8, 2007,

at Boeing's Everett assembly factory, by which time it had become the fastest-selling wide-body airliner in history with 677 orders.[7]

By October 2011, 797 Boeing 787s had been ordered by 57 customers, with ILFC having the largest number on order.[8]

The 787 development and production has involved a large-scale collaboration with numerous suppliers around the globe. Final assembly

is at theBoeing Everett Factory in Everett, Washington. Aircraft will also be assembled at a new factory in North Charleston,

South Carolina. Both sites will deliver 787s to airline customers. Originally planned to enter service in May 2008, the project has

suffered from repeated delays and is now more than three years behind schedule. The airliner's maiden flight took place on December

15, 2009, and completed flight testing in mid-2011. Final Federal Aviation Administration and European Aviation Safety Agency

certification was received in late August 2011 and the first model was delivered in late September 2011. It entered commercial

service in late October 2011.

Singer Amy Winehouse died of alcohol poisoning






London (CNN) -- Singer Amy Winehouse's death this summer was the result of alcohol poisoning, an inquest ruled, as it reached a verdict of "death by misadventure."

A pathologist told a coroner's court in north London that alcohol toxicity was the cause of the 27-year-old's death, with her blood alcohol levels measured at more than five times the legal drink-drive limit.

A family statement, given by spokesman Chris Goodman, said: "It is some relief we finally found out what happened to Amy.
"We understand there was alcohol in her system when she passed away. It is likely a buildup of alcohol in her system over a number of days.

"The court heard that Amy was battling hard to conquer her problems with alcohol and it is a source of great pain that she could not win in time. She had started drinking again that week after a period of abstinence."
The Grammy award-winning artist, who had struggled with alcohol and drug abuse over several years, was found dead at her North London home on July 23.
Her father Mitch and mother Janet were among those who packed the small courtroom at St. Pancras Coroners Court to hear the evidence from key witnesses.
Winehouse's family said in August that toxicology tests had found that "no illegal substances" were in her system at the time of her death but alcohol was present.
Winehouse's soulful, throaty vocals brought the British musician stardom in 2007, but her troubled off-stage life -- chronicled in her top 10 hit "Rehab" -- won her notoriety.

Her death came less than two months after her latest release from a rehabilitation program and weeks after she was booed offstage by disappointed fans in Serbia.
The tattooed London-born singer-songwriter's first album, "Frank," debuted in 2003, when she was 19.

International success came with her 2007 album "Back to Black." She dominated the 2008 Grammys, winning five awards that night and delivering, via satellite from London, a strong performance of "Rehab."
Mitch Winehouse has said he plans to write a memoir, called "Amy: My Daughter," to be released next summer, which he said would tell the story of the Amy that the public never got to know.

A paraguaia, que continua a dar nas vistas em várias aparições públicas, admitiu a relação com Jonathan Fabbro.

Larissa Riquelme, a modelo que ficou conhecida como a noiva do Mundial, está comprometida. Com um jogador de futebol, como seria de esperar. A paraguaia, que continua a dar nas vistas em várias aparições públicas, admitiu a relação com Jonathan Fabbro.

Jonathan Fabbro nasceu na Argentina mas está no Paraguai desde 2007. Actualmente, representa o Cerro Porteno, equipa que Larissa apoia. Curiosamente, é o anterior emblema de Juan Iturbe, jovem do F.C. Porto.

O Telemóvel do Futuro

O telemóvel do futuro é de enrolar e muda de tamanho


Material inovador é parecido com o plástico, mas 200 vezes mais resistente do que o aço.



A próximas novidades tecnológicas já estão a chegar e vão, mais uma vez, revolucionar a forma como comunicamos nas diversas plataformas móveis. Com o novo material denominado grafeno vai ser possível ter um telemóvel que é, ao mesmo tempo, computador e relógio. O novo dispositivo pode ainda ser enrolado e colocado no bolso ou mudar de tamanho e transformar-se num ecrã de computador.

O grafeno é um material 200 vezes mais resistente do que o aço, mas flexível e com uma alta condutividade.

«O grafeno será como o plástico. Estará em toda a parte, porque a amplitude dos seus usos é enorme, vai muito mais além do âmbito electrónico», refere Francisco Guinea, Prémio Nacional de Investigação espanhol, pelos trabalhos que fez sobre este material.

Este material inovador é uma nova forma de carbono puro que consiste numa rede de hexágonos cujos vértices são ocupados por átomos de carbono. É uma folha de espessura atómica, de um único átomo de carbono.

As companhias tecnológicas são as grandes interessadas nas possibilidades do grafeno.

Um dos principais fabricantes de telemóveis desenvolveu um protótipo de um telemóvel que será o primeiro dispositivo que pode ser enrolado e colocado no bolso. O lançamento está já previsto para 2012, noticia o «El Mundo».

Em 2010, o Prémio Nobel da Física foi entregue a dois jovens investigadores russos, pela obtenção de grafeno a partir da ponta de um lápis.
