During the Friday FIA press conference at the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve in Montreal, Renault duo Fernando Alonso and Pat Symonds and Red Bull duo David Coulthard and Geoff Willis answered the questions of the gathered press.Q: Pat, I can remember in Barcelona you were very happy as you felt you’d taken a step forward. In Monaco you were going to spring a surprise. What’s been going on?
Pat Symonds: I never said we would spring a surprise in Monaco.
Q: What is the next step there is a test next week. Will you have some new bits there?
PS: It’s Barcelona next week. More bits there. Every week there are new bits on the car, new bits we are testing. Some aerodynamic updates for the French Grand Prix, some quite big ones, so keep on moving.
Q: Do you remember what you did with Heikki a year ago?
PS: Yes.
Q: Are you going to tell us?
PS: No.
Q: Fernando, tell us about the track conditions today.
Fernando Alonso: I think we had a little bit of everything. This morning a wet track to start with and it was dry just for the last 10 minutes but it was not completely dry, so we found a different track in the afternoon with more normal conditions. It was okay, a normal Friday in Canada with a slippery track and we tried to put some rubber down with the laps. I am sure during the weekend it will be better and better every lap we do on the track.
Q: There are a lot of words being written about what you might be doing in the future. What is your own personal comment on that?
FA: Nothing really. The same comment as always. It is too early to speak about the future and too early for me to think about the future. It is only the sixth or seventh grand prix of the championship this year and there is a long way to go to the end. First of all I want to improve the results and the performance we are having now. The aim for the next two or three months is to be closer and closer to the podium which is the real target. There is enough to do to reach this target that I don’t want to lose too much time on the future.
Q: David what are your feelings about this season so far?
David Coulthard :Well, I am clearly disappointed not to have scored any points. That’s the way it goes sometimes. I’ve obviously been involved in a few incidents which is unusual but again when you are in what I call the ugly part of the grid there seems to be a lot more contact. And clearly the goal is to keep out of that. In the first six races I have been in the top 10 three times in qualifying and clearly that is the key area to be to avoid a lot of the concertina effects especially somewhere like here in Montreal. We have seen that many years with cars getting out of position.
Q: And your feelings about today?
DC: As Fernando said it was a normal Canada Friday with the exception of some wet running thrown in. The track is pretty green but that is the usual gig especially when you come from Monaco as you have got a lot more speed on the car and a lot less downforce, so stopping it through the chicanes is a bit more of a challenge. Usually the cars that have good kerb ride tend to show their lap time here and the grid can be a bit more spaced out, so we just need to review our performance after qualifying tomorrow and hopefully we will have a strong one.
Q: Geoff, to what extent are you already working on the 2009 car?
Geoff Willis: Certainly we are already underway aerodynamically with the 2009 car, both wind tunnel programmes and the CFD programme. We are clearly looking at the tyres as there is a big regulation change there next year, one part of which is the slick tyres. We are still waiting until the last July team test when we will get the final specification of those tyres. Some of the main car lay-out will have to be delayed a little longer but we have done quite a lot of work. At the moment we are juggling that balance between the 2008 car development and 2009 and certainly where we are in the championship, and as David says, we are in that ugly area where a small performance improvement can give you help to get that one or two points. We do certainly have to divide out time as efficiently as we can between the 2008 championship, trying to turn an equal fourth place into a secure fourth place, but at the same time not penalizing ourselves for next year.
Q: As far as you are concerned are the regulations for 2009 perfectly clear?
GW: I think on a technicality the final things we have agreed in the last Technical Working Groups have to go before the World Motor Sport Council which I think is on 30 June but to all intents and purposes, as far as I understand, the regulations are fixed for 2009.
The conference was quite informative. Some questions were asked from the floor. F1 people were all in readiness. For detailed information check out the reference below.

Since its founding in 1979, Nickelodeon has developed many good-for-you programs, aimed at spurring kids' education and development. SpongeBob is not one of those shows. But it's the most funny, surreal, inventive example of the explosion in creative kids' (and adult) entertainment that Nick, Cartoon Network and their ilk made possible.SpongeBob SquarePants is an Emmy-nominated American
animated television series and media franchise. It is one of Nickelodeon's Nicktoons and is currently the most watched show on Nickelodeon. SpongeBob is now broadcast across the world. It was created by artist, animator, and former marine biologist, Stephan Hillenburg, and is produced through his production company, United Plankton Pictures, Inc.
SpongeBob is one in a long line of cartoons that is designed to appeal to adults as well as children. This has a lot to do with the absurd way underwater life and situations are represented, and with the situations, references, and words used, which younger viewers might not understand.
The show is set deep in the 
like a cat; Squidward Tentacles, a grumpy neighbor who lives in a Moai (an Easter Island head); SpongeBob's best friend Patrick, who lives under a rock; Mr. Krabs, SpongeBob's boss and owner of the Krusty Krab; Plankton, owner of the Krusty Krab's rival restaurant, the Chum Bucket; and Sandy Cheeks, a sea-dome-dwelling squirrel.
Jellyfish buzz and sting like bees, worms bark like dogs, scallops act like birds, and SpongeBob talks on a "shell phone" and eats "sea-nut butter." Under sea puns bubble up throughout the program, even as life underwater seems very familiar to life above.
SpongeBob gives us funny mood and many smiling faces. He may not has a spine, or much of a brain, but he's all heart.
If you are a fun of SpongeBob SquarePants you may also visit its fun club on http://spongebob.net/.
At $305 a pop, this handset comes across as expensive when compared to other more established brands, but it looks set to remain an Asian-only cellphone as I can't see Nokia, Samsung, LG, Motorola, HTC, iPhone, or Sony Ericsson owners ditching their respective brands just to pick this up for its TV function.
I’m not going to write about TV Phone too much, it is not a new innovational product, but I have to admire that it helped me a day before I decided to write here about it.

On the Democratic side, all sides are involved in a Clinton-Obama or an Obama-Ticket. This writer has previously opined on the national appeal of New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg for president, who probably continues to watch from the sidelines with great interest. When the Mayor recently announced that he would not be a candidate, it was reported that Senator Obama called him personally shortly thereafter. Wouldn't you like to have been a fly on either of their blackberries? If we begin connecting those dots, we gravitate toward the following possible conclusions:
1. Senator Obama is the most exciting national candidate in recent memory, among Democrats, Independents, and even many Republicans.
2. With his experience sometimes in question, thanks to the relentless attacks of his opponent, Senator Clinton, Obama would be well served by selecting a strong running mate, as well as an experienced and tested inner circle to respond to any reservations about his alleged lack of experience, especially in foreign affairs.
3. Earlier this writer outlined the many reasons why Mayor Bloomberg was such an attractive national candidate for president, among them: the research (including a reported personal discussion with his friend, Senator Joe Lieberman) his seasoned staff had completed on a national candidacy, his enormous personal wealth, his personal and professional attributes, his track record as the Mayor of the largest city in the country, and his continuing access to the world's largest media markets. None of those reasons are any less important today, regardless of the position in question.
4. In my new book, The Golden Years (Sentry Press), I volunteer to the reader five names of individuals that would have made great presidents, three of which have impeccable foreign relations traditional, former Senator Sam Nunn (D., Georgia), former Congressman Lee Hamilton (D., Indiana), and sitting Senator Richard Lugar (D., Indiana). Reportedly, all have a relationship and mutual respect with Senator Obama. Please note there is a bi-partisan appeal among the three as well. This writer singled those three individuals out based upon their experience, respect, integrity, and reputation as solid Americans, and oh yes, they each have demonstrated the ability to generate political support in this country.
So, connecting the dots, a presidential candidacy of Senator Obama as president, Mayor Bloomberg as his vice-president, and Senators Nunn, Lugar, and Congressman Hamilton filling the critical senior foreign affairs positions of say, State, Defense, National Security Advisor comes to mind. Now let’s stand back and analyze the connected dots: you have the excitement of a afro-American candidate with superb academic credentials and extensive domestic policy experience, and a running mate that could step into the presidency without missing a beat. If that combination might be short on foreign policy experience, enter our three heavy weights of Nunn, Lugar and Hamilton. I might add that since the markets are a bit tense as of this writing, Mayor Bloomberg could add double duty with his calming influence on Wall Street. Perhaps the rounding out of this "Dream Team" could occur with the selection of a major Republican politico like Senator Kay Bailey Hutchinson (R., Texas) to a major domestic policy appointment. Obviously, there could be more members of the Dream Team, but for this writer, the combination of the connected dots of Obama, Bloomberg, Nunn, Lugar, Hamilton, and

Four large newspaper companies are joining forces to sell advertisements on the Internet, hoping that the combined heft of their Web sites will encourage large advertisers to spend more money.Each of the four companies - the Tribune Company, the Gannett Company, the Hearst Corporation and The New York Times Company - is transferring a portion of its online ad space to quadrantONE, a new company that will be announced Friday.
The purpose of the joint venture, which will be based in
Some of the companies’ flagship sites, however, will not be included, because they are not considered local. These include the sites of
In total, quadrantONE will be able to reach about 50 million unique visitors a month, its executives said, citing Nielsen Online data.
The effort is at least the third in the last decade involving major newspaper companies joining forces to sell online ads. But quadrantONE comes as newspaper companies are being wooed by companies like Google, Microsoft and Yahoo, which would like to sell premium ads on the newspapers’ sites.
“We want to control our own destiny,” - said Lincoln Millstein, senior vice president for digital media at Hearst Newspapers.
Executives involved said the newspaper companies understand the local market better than Google, Yahoo and Microsoft and can best help national advertisers place their messages on local sites.
But not everyone agrees.
“I don’t think the alignment of newspaper companies will solve the issue,” - said Shar VanBoskirk, an analyst who covers online advertising at Forrester Research. “They need that alignment with a technology company that will bring them the set of skills that they need to monetize their content.”
Several of the newspapers involved in quadrantONE are part of Yahoo’s newspaper consortium, which provides advertising technologies and sales, and all of the companies are partial owners of the Newspaper National Network, a network that allows national advertisers to place ads across thousands of papers’ print editions and, more recently, Web sites. The companies were also all part of the New Century Network in the late 1990s, which failed.
Executives at the newspaper companies said quadrantONE will fare differently because it will have a central repository of advertising inventory, and thus will not have to call the newspapers individually to fill each order.
The group is inviting other newspapers to submit ad inventory, though not to join as owners.

Federal regulators said they will try again to test prototypes on Jan. 24 for transmitting high-speed Internet service over unused television airwaves. Late Thursday, the Federal Communications Commission said the devices — developed by Adaptrum Inc., Microsoft Corp., Motorola Inc. and Philips Electronics North America Corp. — will be tested in laboratory and real-world conditions.
The agency said testing will take three months and issue a report about six weeks after the testing ends.
Last year, a high-technology coalition — which includes Microsoft, Philips, a division of Netherlands-based Royal Philips Electronics NV, Google Inc., Dell Inc., Hewlett-Packard Co., Intel Corp. and EarthLink Inc. — submitted prototypes they said could transmit broadband Internet service over unlicensed and unused TV spectrum, known as "white spaces."
The coalition — which does not include Motorola and Adaptrum, a Mountain View, Calif.-based startup — says using white spaces could make Internet service more accessible and affordable, especially in rural areas. However, television broadcasters and the wireless microphone industry say such devices could interfere with programming.
Initial prototype testing failed. In July, the FCC gave a failing grade to Microsoft's prototypes, saying the devices did not reliably detect and avoid TV programming signals and could have caused interference.
Two weeks later, though, the agency said one of the Microsoft-built devices was broken, accounting for the failed results. A duplicate Microsoft device sent to the FCC was never tested.
At the time, the coalition also said a second prototype Philips developed was able to detect TV and wireless microphone signals, but only in a laboratory setting.
If the tests are successful this time and the devices are approved, the coalition plans to introduce commercial devices for sale after the digital television transition in February 2009.
"It seems to me this timeline is reasonable and could lead to a final decision by the end of the June," - said Scott Blake Harris, who represents the coalition.
