Preços dos combustíveis: gasóleo aumenta, gasolina diminui

Why are diesel prices going up by a rate far higher that the gasoline ones?
I challenge anyone to present one valid argument that justifies this gas prices' trend other than "Oh, that's easy: diesel vehicles sales are going up!"
'Cause this is the argument I believe...

Porque é que os preços do gasóleo estão a subir muito mais que os da gasolina?
Desafio quem quiser a apresentar um argumento válido que justifique esta tendência, que não seja "Ah, é fácil: a venda de carros a gasóleo está em alta!"
Porque é este o argumento em que eu acredito...

Ski at Sierra de Bejar, Salamanca (Spain)

About 2 weeks ago, I spent my weekend skiing in Spain, in Bejar - Salamanca - with a group of good friends. It's a nice resort... for newbies. Not that I'm a pro (far away from that), but I got to be honest: the tracks are just too easy. Furthermore, that was just the most frozen weekend: Saturday we got 12 celsius below zero, and on Sunday, we got a windy, snowy and very icy day. After an adventurous "snow hill climbing" with my van - both snow chains broken!!! - and another adventurous "snow down hill" - 12-15 Kms in 2nd gear - we got back home enjoying a beautiful white landscape during half the trip. Got to try again... other resort :)

These are the main ski tracks, both ranked Red.

This is a "crossroad" between a blue and a red track.

Although this snow chain looks like well assembled, it broked half way up the mountain :(

Islam cartoons

Check this out:
This guy claims that the so infamous cartoons about islam and muslims has been published half an year ago (October 2005) on the frontpage of an well knoen egyptian newspaper, named Al Fagr.
No outrage happened then. Maybe because Egypt isn't at Europe. Maybe...
