Bernard Meyerson, Chief Innovation Officer, IBM By Bernard Meyerson It’s amazing when you look back over the 60+ years of the computing revolution and see how far we have come in such a relatively short time. IBM’s Watson marks a turning point. One of the most intriguing aspects of this shift is our ability to give machines some of the capabilities of the right side of the human brain. Touch: You will be able to reach out and touch through your phone Sight: A pixel will be worth a thousand words Hearing: Computers will hear what matters Taste: Digital taste buds will help you to eat healthier Smell: Computers will have a sense of smell Join the Twitter conversation at #ibm5in5. These five predictions show how cognitive technologies can improve our lives, and they’re windows into a much bigger landscape –the coming era of cognitive systems. At IBM, we have been talking about these new capabilities for the past four years under the rubric of our Smarter Planet agenda.

Liberation theology Liberation theology refers to forms of local or contextual theology that propose that knowledge of God based on revelation leads necessarily to a Christian theological praxis that opposes unjust social and political structures. It has been described as "an interpretation of Christian faith through the poor's suffering, their struggle and hope, and a critique of society and the Catholic faith and Christianity through the eyes of the poor".[1] Detractors have called it Christianized Marxism.[2] The best known form of liberation theology is that which developed in Latin America in the 1950s, however various other forms of liberation theology have since developed, including Asian, Black, and Palestinian liberation theologies, among others.[citation needed] Although liberation theology has grown into an international and inter-denominational movement, it began as a movement within the Catholic Church in Latin America in the 1950s–1960s.

Corsican immigration to Puerto Rico Corsican immigration to Puerto Rico came about as a result of various economic and political changes in mid-19th century Europe; among those factors were the social-economic changes which came about in Europe as a result of the Second Industrial Revolution, political discontent and widespread crop failure due to long periods of drought, and crop diseases. Another influential factor was that Spain had lost most of its possessions in the so-called "New World" and feared the possibility of a rebellion in its last two Caribbean possessions—Puerto Rico and Cuba. As a consequence the Spanish Crown had issued the Royal Decree of Graces of 1815 (Real Cédula de Gracias) which fostered and encouraged the immigration of European Catholics that were not of Spanish origin to its Caribbean colonies. The situation and opportunities offered, plus the fact that the geographies of the islands are similar, were ideal for the immigration of hundreds of families from Corsica to Puerto Rico. Casa Paoli
