The best place to hide is always in full sight, and of course the someone in the Pakistan security apparatus knew all along where he was hiding. If you believe otherwise then you are just as naive as the Yanks.

Tech Futures Past

From the Socialcast blog via Techi comes this historic chart of past failed tech predictions, as well as a few that came close.

Techi asks what would their readers foresee?

I would look for (within the next 100 years) that the speed of light space/distance barrier will be overcome and we will take the first steps to colonising the stars.

One To Watch: In the Cave of Forgotten Dreams

Image via WikipediaA 3-D guided tour by Werner Herzog of the Cave of Chauvet-Pont-d’Arc 


"....(a) limestone cave (containing) a wealth of early paintings, perhaps from as long ago as 32,000 years."


"Here, amid gleaming stalactites and stalagmites and a carpet of animal bones, beautiful images of horses gallop on walls alongside bison and a ghostly menagerie of cave lions, cave bears and woolly mammoths. Multiple red palm prints of an early artist adorn one wall, as if to announce the birth of the first auteur."
