“Open Veins Of Latin America” – The Book Hugo Chavez Gave Obama
At the beginning of a meeting of the Union of South American Nations, Chavez gave Obama a book: “Las Venas Abietas de America Latina” or “The Open Veins of Latin America”, a scholarly text that analyzes Latin America’s dependence on the north. The media friendly Chavez waited until the press had been allowed into the room for a photo opportunity before gifting the book, which Obama accepted.
There’s been some confusion on the book. Apparently the book is available in English and Spanish. This is the Spanish version, which Obama received from Chavez.

Newsweek reports that **UPDATE 3** Apparently the book is in Spanish, which Obama does not speak (or read). Oops. And we thought the wrong-format DVDs Obama gave to Brown were a faux pas. A harshly critical book about the U.S. in a language POTUS can’t read probably takes the cake on that front.
Oracle is in talks to buy Sun.
This morning April 20, 2009, Oracle announced that they are in discussions to acquire Sun. Up to now it was IBM who was making a play for SUN which trades under the JAVA trading symbol.
I own stock in both SUN and Oracle and would be pleased to see the move.

Thanks to the ArtistData folks for reporting this error bug on MySpace.
Victor,
We’re writing to update you on a MySpace bug that is affecting a lot of
our users. We were hoping MySpace would fix it by now, but since it’s been
almost a week, we wanted to let you know what’s going on and what we’re
doing about it.
Sometime last week, MySpace users started experiencing a bug where if the
“&” symbol was in the venue name, the venue name would disappear on the
user’s profile. We’ve tested the occurrence of this but from shows synced
by ArtistData, as well as shows directly inputting into MySpace, and we see
the same bug We’re confident the problem is not on our end.
Unfortunately, we automatically add your Other Artists into your venue
name on MySpace, and use “&” in the list (Example: “VenueName w/ Other
Artist 1 & Other Artist 2”). So, if you enter Other Artists into ArtistData
you will see this bug affecting you. The only thing we can do to help is
change that format, so as of tomorrow morning, we are replacing the “&”
with “and” for future syncs. That should reduce the effect this bug has on
our users from now on.
We apologize and want you to know that we’ve alerted MySpace directly
about this bug. Hopefully they get it cleared up this week. We are very
very sorry about the inconvenience it causes you and will work with you
(and MySpace) to do what we can to help.
