Deep out there is a "planet killer" lurking and scientists predict that there are asteroids that can wipe out all life on our planet. Some asteroids have already impacted earth before with devastating results.
La actividad económica tiene lugar en un entorno físico y biológico. Con la publicación en 1972 del Informe al Club de Roma ‘Los Límites del Crecimiento’, la investigación económica (tal vez con demasiada lentitud hasta fechas recientes) terminó reconociendo que la producción de bienes y servicios tiene efectos negativos sobre ese entorno. Si la supervivencia de la especie humana en el planeta pasa necesariamente por la conservación de dicho entorno, entonces estamos obligados a desarrollar una actividad económica respetuosa con el medio ambiente.
Desde la perspectiva que ofrece la ciencia económica, este reto puede identificarse con el diseño de nuevos modelos de crecimiento económico en los que la variable medioambiental tiene un papel central. ¿De qué instrumentos se dispone para gestionar un crecimiento económico en equilibrio con el medio ambiente? ¿Son eficientes estos instrumentos? ¿Necesitamos nuevos instrumentos para reforzar este objetivo? Estas son algunas de las preguntas a las que se tratará de contestar, mostrando los límites a los que se enfrenta el mercado para gestionar los “recursos naturales no-renovables” y la acción política en el caso de los “recursos naturales renovables”.

El Puerto del Pico (1.391 m.), es el limite natural entre el Macizo de la Sierra de Gredos y el Macizo Oriental.
El Puerto del Pico es, a la vez, divisoria y mirador. Divisoria entre la Meseta Norte y la Meseta Sur; entre la cuenca del Alberche y la del Tiétar. Mirador a los cuatro puntos cardinales. Al Este el pico del Torozo (2.026 m.), comienzo del Macizo Oriental. Al Oeste, aparecen algunas de las cumbres del Macizo Central de la Sierra de Gredos, como La Mira. Al Norte la cuenca del Alberche, con el telón de fondo de las Sierras de la Paramera y la Serrota, al sur, se sitúa el Barranco de las Cinco Villas, abierto hacia el Valle del Tiétar.
La Calzada Romana la trazaron los romanos, dos siglos antes de Cristo y perteneció a una red secundaria que cruzaba la Sierra de Gredos y se ramificaba después en la provincia de Ávila.
De tiempos de los romanos, es la construcción mas notable de esta zona, la Calzada Romana, una de las mejor conservadas de España, que cruza el Puerto del Pico. Impresionante obra que ha resistido el paso del tiempo y que con un magnifico trazado salva el importante desnivel de la vertiente meridional del citado puerto.
Por esta antigua Calzada Romana, la llamada Cañada Real Leonesa cruza la Sierra de Gredos por el abrupto Puerto del Pico, camino de las dehesas y pastos invernales de Extremadura. El Puerto del Pico ha sido durante siglos el paso natural entre la altiplanicie abulense y el valle del Tiétar.

A mysterious off limits stairway at Kinkaku-ji in Kyoto, Japan. Supposedly, the temples bamboo workshop is what was at the top of the staircase. Unlike at Ginkaku-ji, however, it is not warning tourists (in only Japanese) of the horrible deadly vipers that lie ahead.
The No Limits Bike Racing Championship made its formal Return to the World Famous Brands Hatch Grand Prix Circuit for a Very Special 8 Hour Endurance Race.
Each and Every Team Had a selection of High Powered Racing Machinery that would along with the Rider take on the Might of Brands Hatches' Grand Prix Circuit for a Gruelling 8 Hours Straight.
While Some Teams had as many as Four Riders to make the job a Little Bit Easier other Teams Had decided to go with just Two Riders for 4 Hours Each knowing they Had the Skills and Determination to Keep Racing Hard.
The Championship was in is Last Race of the Season here at Brands and Whoever Won this Final Event would take the No Limits Bike Racing Championship Crown.
Qualifying was up First and setting the Pace at the Top of the Timings was (Andelle Leathers / RatMally Graphic) on their Kawasaki 998/Kawasaki 1000 Racing Bikes with an Incredible Time of 1.31.846 and a Top Speed of 95.37 to take Pole at The Start of the Race.

In Third Place was (Earnshaw's Motorcycles) BMW 1000/BMW 1000 Racing Bikes with A Lap Time of 1.32.099 and an Top Speed of 95.11mph.
With Qualifying Over and a 11:46am Start Fast Approaching all of the Riders to head out for the First 2 Hours. Just like Old School Le Mans the Riders all Lined Up on the Opposite Side of the Pitlane with their Respective Teams Holding onto the Bikes Ready for them to Blast off into the Distance around the Circuit.
A Loud Bang from the Calcian Signalled the Start of an 8 Hour Endurance Race and each Rider Ran Towards their Bikes Fired them Up and Set off onto the Race Track.
During the First Hour All Riders Made it through the First Opening Laps without any Problems and already many of them were getting up to Speed while some other Riders Preferred to nurse their Machinery for the First Hour to Avoid anything Breaking or Failing on thease High Powered Machines.
As Hour two Approached Everyone was still going strong and The Riders were Each Getting into a Really Good Rhythm of the Grand Prix circuit while other Teams had opted to Head to the pits to swap Riders and Give themselves more of a chance to take Victory with a selection of different Talents and Bikes available.
The Start of Hour Three saw a lot of Different Battles Going on thought the field and on the Back Straight there was some Close Wheel to Wheel Action Between Every Rider traveling at Speeds close to Nearly 100mph. Some Riders were Pushing so Hard that Even their Front Wheels Rose into the Air Making for some Epic and Thrilling Moments. An Overtake by Rider Number 97 on 36 was the Highlight so Far.
Hour Four and Still Each Rider was not Giving Up on the Chance of Victory with Half of the Endurance Race Completed by Now it was Time for Another Rider Change and with Many Teams Heading for the Pits Once Again Each New Rider Ventured Out onto the Brands Hatch GP Circuit it Beautiful Sunlit Conditions Although thease Must Have Been Playing Havoc with the Visibility for the Riders. Non the Less After Just One Retirement Earlier Due to an Engine Fire and a Marshall that should Have Really Been More Prepared. the Remaining Riders Soldered on.
The Fifth Hour was now Upon them and after a Very Hectic and Fast set of Laps Earlier Many Riders were setting down into their Positions to make sure the Bike they were on would Survive to the End. Druids was a Place to witness some Incredible Overtakes During this Time with the Light Levels Lowering and The Riders Really Looking like they were Pushing Hard and Encouraging their Machines to solder onto Victory.
Hour Six and with the Light Levels Now Falling even Lower it looked like this Endurance Race would be Ending in Nearly Dark Conditions as the Rider Kept on Going. The Few Retirement's Earlier on during Hour 2 and 3 were now just a Memory in the Surviving Riders Minds who all had One Goal in Mind. Get This Bike to the End of The Race.
Hour Seven and by now the Light was Nearly all But Gone with the Last Rays of Sunshine Disappearing Entirely from the Tops of Druids and yet Despite this now disadvantage i terms of Having a lot less light The Riders Still Continued to Push Hard and Fight their was To Victory in the Closing Stages as the Race Reached its Climax.
The Final Hour was Finally here and Every Rider who Had Been Concentrating Hard all Day was Now in a Position to Push Hard for that Final Hour of Glory that would mean the Difference Between either a Race Victory or a Race Loss. As The Minuets Slowly Ticked Down and The Last Light of Day Had been Long Extinguished from the Circuit. it was the Team of (Delkevic Racing's Liam Marchant / Gary Johnson / James Edwards and Luke Scott who took a Resounding Victory after 232 Laps and a Gruelling 8 Hour's of Racing 2 For Each of The Riders. Congratulations Delkevic Racing an Incredible Achievement.

Until Then Keep Racing and Never Give Up Hope of One Day Standing on the Top Step of the Podium.
