Apparently it is time to talk about Maggot Moon, by Sally Gardner. I say this because it keeps coming into my consciousness lately.
First, it won the UK's prestigious Carnegie Medal in June.
Second, Horn Book, Booklist, and PW gave it starred reviews.
Third, when I was at ALA, I had the opportunity to meet some of Sharon Grover's teen members of "The Book Club Formerly Known as Printz." These are the teens who read widely last year, held their own Mock Printz, and like the Real Committee, chose Nick Lake's In Darkness as their winner. Anyway, when I was chatting with them, I asked them what they were currently reading that impressed them. Two of them immediately responded, "Maggot Moon!"
Fourth, this morning I read a blog post entitled, "The Carnegie Medal–Can Children Have their Prize Back, Please?" in which the author discussed both Patrick Ness's Chaos Walking books and Maggot Moon, about which he said, "Adults should read it. They will love it. The hero is on the side of good and the side of evil is awful and banal and good fights to the bitter end for what it believes in. However, I'm not sure I would give it to a child."
So, since I read Maggot Moon last week, it's time to talk about it. Starting from the blog post referred to above, my first comment is that the author, like so many others, consistently blurs the distinction between children's (e.g., middle grade) and young adult books. I actually thought that Maggot Moon fell a little on the younger side of that distinction, just because of what he said: "The hero is on the side of good and the side of evil is awful and banal." It was a bit too cut-and-dried for teens. There really weren't any grey areas; it was obvious from the beginning that Standish and his grandfather were the "good guys" and the despotic government were the "bad guys."
I can see why the book is appealing, but my biggest problem with it was that it was too improbable. Unless I missed something important, I understood that because the radiation from the moon was too strong to allow landing on the moon, the government had decided to fake a moon landing, to demonstrate their prowess to the world. But if they knew the radiation was too strong, wouldn't scientists in other countries? Wouldn't it be obvious (umm. . . .flag waving in the breeze?) that it was a fake? So what would they be proving? And why would it be important for Standish to demonstrate that it was a hoax?
So that didn't work for me.
The articles about the Carnegie Medal make a big deal about the fact that Standish was dyslexic, and so is the author, Sally Gardner. Again, I didn't see that as being that big a deal. It struck me as being like so many things in children's and YA books–a way to create more tension for the main character, and to isolate him, so that his feats would be even more important.
So that was my initial one-read impression: well-written, but too young for YA and with plot holes that I couldn't get over. Is it this year's version of Wonder? How about you? Have you read it yet?

Large favorites in Monday's MLB odds, the St. Louis Cardinals head to Denver to face the Colorado Rockies, who have been subpar at home this season (11-17).
The St. Louis Cardinals Can Win Because...
These large favorites in today's MLB odds are in very good hands with their starting pitcher for this game. John Lackey has been a consistent and very reliable starter for the Cardinals this season. He's had very few missteps this season. Only once in his last 10 starts has he given up more than three runs, on April 22 against Washington. He has not given up more than three runs in any of his last eight starts. He's given up more than two runs only twice in his last seven starts. He's been a machine for the Cardinals, an important anchor on the staff in the absence of ace Adam Wainwright. Without Lackey's contributions, the Cardinals could not be dominating the NL Central. He's been that essential to the team in 2015.
Then consider this: Since the ball carries in Denver, and since Coors Field is a notorious hitter's park, one of the least friendly places for pitchers to pitch, Lackey doesn't even have to be brilliant to give his team a better than average chance at winning. If he matches his most recent start on June 3, in which he gave up three runs in seven innings to the Milwaukee Brewers, St. Louis should have more than enough to win. You should also realize that Colorado starter David Hale has a 4.26 ERA. It's based on only two starts, but it is what it is. Can Hale really outpitch Lackey at Coors? It's possible, but you probably wouldn't want to bet on it happening.
The Colorado Rockies Can Win Because...
These underdogs are in a situation where a few factors might break in their favor. As you look at the Cardinals' batting order, remember that Matt Adams, their power-hitting first baseman, is out for several months, and possibly the whole season, with an injury. In a park where more runs are generally scored, missing an offensive contributor such as Adams might matter more than in a pitcher-friendly park such as Dodger Stadium or Petco Park. That's one thing working for the Rockies in this game. Another thing is the Coors Effect, and how it might get Lackey out of his comfort zone. That's kind of obvious, though.
Another specific factor is that the Cardinals might not be familiar with David Hale. He's made only 10 career starts and only two this season. When hitters aren't accustomed to seeing a pitcher, that first game against such a pitcher can be a struggle. St. Louis might crush Hale if the two teams meet later in the season, but on this one night, Hale could baffle the Cardinals with his offerings.
Baseball Betting Outlook
The Rockies might make their ballpark work for them, but St. Louis is such a complete team, one that has continued to win even without Adam Wainwright and Matt Adams. The Cards are again rolling having won five of six and 11 of 14.
With the line opening up at -137 at 5Dimes, that seems to be a reasonable price to take the better team in this spot. 5Dimes tends to have good baseball prices and it's better than the other shops right now, so I'll take the Cards for my MLB pick here.
MLB Pick: St. Louis -137

Rbf2 is a recently evolved Retinoblastoma family member in Drosophila, differing from Rbf1 especially in the C-terminus. To investigate whether the unique features of Rbf2 contribute to diverse roles in gene regulation, we performed ChIP-Seq for both Rbf2 and Rbf1 in embryos. A previous model for Rb-E2F interactions suggested that Rbf1 binds dE2F1 or dE2F2, while Rbf2 is restricted to binding to dE2F2, however, we found that Rbf2 targets approximately twice as many genes as Rbf1. Highly enriched among the Rbf2 targets were ribosomal protein genes. We tested the functional significance of this finding by assessing Rbf activity on ribosomal protein promoters and the endogenous genes. Rbf1 and Rbf2 significantly repressed expression of some ribosomal protein genes, although not all bound genes showed transcriptional effects. Interestingly, many ribosomal protein genes are similarly targeted in human cells, indicating that these interactions may be relevant for control of ribosome biosynthesis and growth. We carried out bioinformatic analysis to investigate the basis for differential targeting by these two proteins, and found that Rbf2-specific promoters have distinct sequence motifs, suggesting unique targeting mechanisms. Association of Rbf2 with these promoters appears to be independent of dE2F2/dDP, although promoters bound by both Rbf1 and Rbf2 require dE2F2/dDP. The presence of unique Rbf2 targets suggest that evolutionary appearance of this corepressor represents the acquisition of potentially novel roles in gene regulation for the RB family.

Cyberculture Comes to the Americas
Kunanqa rihsisunchisya Runa Simita, inkakunah rimayninta, Kay musuhanpi, Supercarretera de Informacion, Internetpa Kancharyninwan.
by Barbara Belejack
Even for those without a word of Quechua, the phrase Supercarretera de Informacion, Internetpa, is a dead give-away: "Let's learn Quechua, language of the Incas, the modern way, via the information highway through the light of the Internet."
The message appeared in a Lima newsweekly last July, directing readers to the web page of the Peruvian Scientific Network (RCP), a non-profit, user-financed consortium of individual, academic, non-governmental, business and public-sector members. It was founded in Lima in 1991 with one computer, three modems and 7,000 dollars in seed money from the United Nations Development Program (UNDP). In 1994 the RCP connected to the backbone of the National Science Foundation (NSF) and now includes over 3,000 member-organizations and nearly 60,000 individual users. In the words of director Jose Soriano, it is an autonomous network that strictly applies the concept of the Internet – a network of national networks that belongs to no one and everyone.

TechShop sounds awesome and is close to SF, but not close enough. It's 30 miles away which makes regular trips out of the question for me. Their page does mention that they'd be willing to open a new one in SF or Oakland if there's space and the idea takes off, though.
San Fran Membership Machine Shop?? Answered
I remember some article somewhere mentioning a place in or near San Francisco where you could pay a membership fee to go and use water jets, lathes, laser cutters, mills, and various other equipment. If i recall correctly, you could also take training courses there. However, I can't find the article, and I need help remembering the name/details.... can anyone help me out here?
I want one closer to me. Awesome place!!

Lipitor Injury Lawsuits
Lipitor is a statin drug that is primarily designed and prescribed to lower cholesterol levels in people with high cholesterol. It was approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 1996 and has since become the world's best selling medication of all time. Currently, there are over 20 million people in the world who use the medication regularly. It is estimated that the annual sales of Lipitor throughout the world account for $12 billion in revenue for Pfizer, the manufacturer and marketer of the drug.
Lipitor works by inhibiting an enzyme (HMG-CoA reductase) that is located in the liver and is responsible for the production of cholesterol in the body. While the idea behind the drug is all positive, it has been recently discovered that more and more consumers who have taken the drug are developing serious side effects that could have long-term ramifications on their personal health and well-being.
Lipitor Side Effects
Pfizer promotes Lipitor as a safe drug for consumers with high cholesterol, often toting the minimal health risks associated with the drug. However, several studies suggest that Lipitor may have been aware of the more serious side effects that have affected consumers as of late, and attorneys across the country are filing lawsuits on behalf of injured victims.
Some of the more common side effects associated with Lipitor use include muscle weakness, tenderness, allergic reactions, nausea/vomiting, dark colored urine, and skin and eye yellowing. These side effects, while not life-threatening, can still cause significant pain and discomfort for patients and in extreme cases may not be reversible.
More serious side effects associated with Lipitor use include type 2 diabetes, chest pains, difficulty breathing, memory loss, muscle soreness or weakness, inflammation of the pancreas, stomach or intestinal ulcers, kidney stones, blood in urine, urinary tract infections (UTIs), and inflammation of the esophagus.
Who Can File A Lipitor Lawsuit?
In 2012 the FDA issued a change on statin drug labels. The new labels highlighted that there was a potential risk of memory loss and a small risk of diabetes associated with usage. Shortly after women who felt that Lipitor caused their diabetes began to file lawsuits against its manufacturer Pfizer Pharmaceuticals. Due to the large number of lawsuits filed nationally the federal judicial panel decided to consolidate all Lipitor diabetes related lawsuits in a Charleston, South Carolina. Pfizer opposed the consolidation because they thought that it would entice additional copycat lawsuits.
If you or a loved one has developed any of the aforementioned side effects after taking Lipitor, it may be in your best interests to consult with an experienced personal injury attorney. Our attorneys work on a contingency fee basis, which means there are no up-front costs and all attorney fees are deducted from the gross settlement at the conclusion of your case. Fill out the form on this page to get started, and someone will be in contact with you shortly.

Any type of craps or baccarat system needs to include two components: a cash money management system as well as a wager option approach. Bet option is referred to as the treatment for picking the winning choice lender or player at baccarat or pass or do not pass from craps. There are great deals of techniques preferred by gamers. Some favor to stick to the lineup in craps or the footwear at baccarat. An additional method of selecting which side to wager is your choice before last. As they try to find patterns pattern acknowledgment vintages gamers. Streak play has spondee systems. Baccarat shows up to hold one of the most aspire into the mathematically inclined. Thinking about that the game is performed from footwear that is not reshuffled before a video game was concluded. The math types declare there is dependency from the video game.
Hence, we should be able to develop some advantage over the residence in the next location of the shoe due to the fact that we understand which cards are played at the initial fifty percent of this shoe certainly we would have to keep track to recognize this. Card checking made use of in blackjack as well as started has actually been attempted in baccarat. As the player benefit was really minor the result declared but disappointing. My advice on card counting; do not waste your personal time; it will not finish the job. Approaches of removing the reliance in the baccarat video game occur to be looked into. He analyzed 10s of thousands of repeating patterns about the prominence of this shoe banker or participant as the routine took place. He took care of to extract an edge only much less than produced by card. Dr. Johnson reports that the useful constraint of the baccarat plan is that the very rare event of gambling opportunism. The drama called for a huge portion and bets to produce revenue. The medical professional reasoned the method was a success a solution to obtaining the benefit from the game.
A unique technique is taken by some players depending upon the connection of quantities in a negative expectation video game such as the baccarat game or game. Numbers' continuity idea behind this each time we check out the data is verified out by method. This is not to state you will certainly be provided the betting system by the concept. Right here's the concept. Allow us state we went into the capsa domino we and scientists detailed every roll of the dice day 7 days each week for 6 weeks. That would total up to tens of countless rolls of the dice. For discussion, let us claim 6 weeks of tape-recording represents final thoughts or rolls.

The following information was posted on the UCLA Bruins Athletic website. Congratulations to the four players and UCLA Coach Chen, and be sure to check back for updates and results from the event.
Four members of the UCLA men's and women's tennis teams have been selected to represent the USA at the upcoming Summer World University Games, the U.S. delegation and UCLA has announced.
Martin Redlicki and Logan Staggs will take part in the men's competition, while Terri Fleming and Jada Hart will take on the women's field. The group will be led by UCLA men's associate head coach Grant Chen.
The World University Games, also known as the Universiade, are an international sports competition held every two years and hosted by different countries. The World University Games comprise a summer and winter games held in the same year, and is second only in importance to the Olympics. The 29th Summer World University Games will be held this summer in Chinese Taipei, Aug. 19-30, with over 120 countries competing in 22 sports.
Redlicki was recently honored by the Pac-12 for being part of its Doubles Team of the Year for the second consecutive season. The duo of Redlicki and Evan Zhu teamed to go 21-5 in 2016-17 and wrapped up its 17-3 dual-match mark in the NCAA Round of 16. In singles, the Boca Raton, Fla. native went 29-9, including 22-4 in dual matches. Redlicki was also named to the All-Pac-12 First Team for the second time in as many years.
Staggs was a force for the Bruins on Courts 3 and 4 during his junior season, going 15-0. Overall, the Tracy, Calif. native posted a 21-4 record and capped an impressive 19-2 dual-match season with his 14th consecutive win. He also accumulated six clinching points and tallied three in four matches from March 16 through April 1. Staggs earned his first All-Pac-12 recognition when he was received Honorable Mention consideration Tuesday.
Fleming also had a breakout junior campaign, earning the Doubles Team of the Year award (with Hart) and an All-Pac-12 Honorable Mention selection—both firsts for the Atlanta native. Fleming registered an 18-15 mark in singles play and, along with Hart, ran off seven consecutive doubles wins from March 4 through April 8. For the year, the pair posted a 13-3 record that included a 5-1 mark against nationally-ranked opponents.
After redshirting in 2015-16, Hart posted an 18-10 singles mark in her first season for UCLA. She was twice selected as Pac-12 Player of the Week (Jan. 30, April 10) and was named to the All-Pac-12 Second Team. The Colton, Calif. native totaled a team-high 27 doubles wins, goings 27-8 with partners Fleming and Ena Shibahara.
Chen recently completed his second season as associate head coach under long-time UCLA head coach Billy Martin. Prior to his current role, Chen served as Martin's top assistant for three years. The 2006 UCLA graduate also served for five seasons as the team's Director of Operations. Additionally, Chen's coaching history includes a pair of Southern California Regional Championships in 2007 and 2008 as head coach of the UCLA Club Tennis Team.
Tennis competition begins Monday, Aug. 21 at 9:30 a.m. local time with singles matches in the round of 64. Competition will continue daily through Monday, Aug. 28. All tennis events will be held at the newly-constructed Taipei Tennis Center, which features four indoor courts and 14 outdoor courts, including the 4,000-seat center court.
The four Bruin athletes will stay in the Athletes' Village, participate in the Opening and Closing Ceremonies, and interact with over 5,000 student-athletes from around the world.
American fans hoping to watch the games live will have to manage the 15-hour time difference between the U.S. West Coast and Taipei. The opening ceremony will begin at 4 a.m. PT, Saturday, Aug. 19 with the closing ceremony taking place at 4:30 a.m. PT, Wednesday, Aug. 30. Both events will stream live at www.livefisu.tv. The streaming schedule for competition has not been released.

Flash Player Mods needed
Budget $30-250 USD
Hello. I'm looking to get some mods done FAST (a day should be more than enough for a real pro, I just am not a Flash/Actionscript expert).
I have a player (with all related source files). I need the player to be modded as follows to fit the project:
1) UNLIMITED VIDEO LIST – The Player supports multiple playlists. The problem is, for each playlist, I'm only showing six(6) videos, though my list is over 100. I need this fixed!
2) FULL DESCRIPTIONS – In the playlist, the video descriptions are truncated. No problem with that at all. However, I'd like to be able to show the FULL video description somewhere. I don't care how you do it, so long as the result is attractive. For example, I'm OK with the description text being put beneath the player.
Please answer ASAP, because this job is cross-posted and the first qualified person I find gets it. Thanks!

Ice Skating
Skiing—An International Sport
Sledding Sports
For a swift flight over snow, tobogganing offers sport that is as exciting as skiing. Toboggans are long, flat-bottomed sleds made of thin boards curved up at the front end. North American Indians were the first to use the toboggan, the name of which goes back to the Algonquian word odabaggan. The Indians probably used the toboggan originally for carrying their loads of food and supplies through the woods in winter.

Virtual store and Small Business
Virtual Store is nothing but the website of a company where anyone can buy/look the product/service provided by company. The internet becomes the primary need for people since last decade. We search everything on internet and we can buy anything via use of it. Big companies already captured the wave of technology shift and joined the virtual platform and social media platform which help them to increase their global market reach to get the new customer.
Small businesses or say local businesses that lacked the sight to see the opportunity in technology shift have lost their market to global companies. For ex. Grocery stores who lost their business to Big Bazaar, D-Mart, etc. Now days it's easier to have website for small business. Website can verify the existence of a business, increase visibility to new and current customers, and improve customer experiences. But how many small businesses actually have the website?
Nearly half of small businesses do not have website. Most of them claim that they don't have enough funds to have website as it is expensive for them or website is not relevant for their business. For ex. Panipuri Shop in shopping complex; he does not need website or its not relevant for them to have website as customers are already flooding in to buy the product also Flower shop outside temple does not website as devotees buys the flower who are going in the temple.
But to against the fierce competition in the market the small businesses must have the virtual platform to attract the customer. A virtual store introduces a business, providing an in-depth description of employees, services, and products. It offers informational substance that is searchable online and is ideally available from any device with an Internet connection. The availability of the Internet on mobile and portable electronic devices increases the need for websites to be available on these devices. Thus, responsive websites, mobile sites, and sometimes mobile apps are important for a business's online presence on any device.

Two hundred fifty thousand people have participated in adventure races during the last five years, estimates the United States Adventure Race Association (USARA), which sanctions 90 percent of United States adventure races. "That number should double or triple in the next year or two," says USARA president and founder Troy Farrar, "Half the states haven't had a race yet."
Adventure racing is often described as the sport that shows you "what you're made of." The phrase doesn't make its full impact until you've been out there, cold, hungry, hurting and exhausted, yet somehow push through. Participants want that extra challenge, something more to show for their commitment to fitness than another middle-of-the-pack finish.
A sport in which the fittest individuals don't necessarily win, adventure racing requires outdoor savvy and incredible mental perseverance. Since speed isn't the most important factor, adventure racing needs a fitness program tailored to its mores. Before starting to train, athletes should have a solid aerobic base. The general rule of thumb is three to six months of consistent training.
Training Guidelines
- Choosing a race. There are three types of races: sprint (lasting a few hours to eight), adventure (lasting eight to 48 hours) and expedition (lasting two days or longer).
- Learn about the specific race. What gear is needed? Are certifications mandatory? Longer races often require some certifications, while shorter races sometimes do not. Nevertheless, certifications certainly give you a distinct advantage. Speak with people who have participated in the particular race. If possible, volunteer at it the year beforehand.
- Establish goals. In such a challenging sport, finishing is a victory in and of itself. Highly competitive and experienced teams might shoot for a top-five finish.
- Choose teammates based on common goals, fitness and skill levels. Your team won't work if someone expects to win and others just want to finish and have fun. Nor will it succeed if someone moves two minutes slower per mile than everyone else.
- Train in a team. Training with potential teammates will reveal workable and unworkable differences. This will also provide the opportunity to practice team strategy and decision-making.
- Appoint a navigator and leader. In order to keep moving, successful teams have a pre-selected leader and navigator. Among other things, the leader ensures time is used effectively in places it is often wasted, such as checkpoints, where unplanned breaks often occur. The navigator is responsible for knowing where the team is, has been and is going. Other team members should keep tabs on this as well since racing demands, like physical exertion and sleep deprivation, may cause the navigator to make a mistake.
- Train the disciplines. Most races involve running/hiking, mountain biking, kayaking, and climbing. Therefore, spend as much time as possible practicing these activities. In-line skating, rappelling, swimming and horseback riding may also be included in the training. Lessons are recommended for activities you are unfamiliar with.
- Since a pack creates unique fatigue and balance issues, train with it often. During a race, all your gear, food and water is on your back–that's about 20 pounds. Sometimes you carry your pack throughout the entire race, sometimes through one discipline
- Plan multi-discipline, multi-hour outings. Do a brick workout a session of one discipline immediately followed by another (e.g., one hour of biking followed by two hours of hiking) once a week. Once a month, go on a weekend outing for a multi-discipline team practice of six to 10 continuous hours. Plan your route and navigate on a topographical map. These outings will help determine your team's pace in each discipline and emulate race conditions, from sleep deprivation to nocturnal navigation. Pack and use gear and food as you would while racing.
- Train at night. Since most races require some nocturnal mountain biking and hiking, nocturnal training should be part of your monthly multi-discipline, multi-hour outing. Simulate race conditions by hiking, then biking, for a two to six hour session. To practice navigational skills, plan a route which splits off the initial trail. However, if you're not experienced with nocturnal travel, start by doing one of your weekly workouts at night.
- Learn how to pack. Ten extra pounds is a big deal after 48 hours. Ask yourself: What gear do I really need? What extras should I take? Make sure you have everything on the required equipment list, duct tape wrapped around your trekking poles (to tape your feet if necessary and for other surprises), a watch, water, food, extra flashlight batteries and skin lube for chaffing. Resist much else.
- Learn how to eat. "During a race," says Tucson-based Robert Miner, who races every six weeks, "sometimes how fast you process food [is important]. You're burning 600 to 1,000 calories an hour but can only process 300."
Try different things, such as having a hydration bladder full of water and one of a sports drink. Sip throughout the race and strive for a 3:1 water to sports drink ratio in order to maintain electrolyte balance. PowerBars[R] are good, but bring other solid foods for variety. Anything compact, nutritionally and calorically dense is good.
- Train navigational skills. Your team's navigational skills will enable or disable your ability to finish the race. You can be the fastest team, but if you don't know where you are and need to go, you won't have a successful race. Joining an orienteering club can help you learn navigational skills. Participate in all their meets and a 24-hour Rogaine–a long-distance foot race in which you use a map and compass to find as many checkpoints as possible. You can never know too much about navigation.
- Build strength, power, speed and endurance. Strength-training exercises should closely replicate actual movements. Dips, step-ups, standing hip extensions, push-ups and pull-ups are excellent examples. Do an interval and tempo session each week to build speed and power. Aerobic and brick workouts build endurance.
- Recover. Immediately after the race, eat protein and carbohydrates in a ratio of 1:4 for best glycogen refueling, similar to how you would after a long, arduous workout. Two hours later, eat again.
Feeling overwhelmed? Consider a sprint-style race and stick to Troy Farrar's guidelines. According to Farrar, someone who runs or hikes two or three times a week (with a pack), bikes once or twice each week and gets in some paddling should be able to finish.

In the first of a series of blogs previewing Independents Day on Thursday 6 June, Andrew Franklin (Profile Books) asks why we need independents in the creative industries.
Apple do an awesome job with design and innovation; Google give you all the information in the world; Sony's music list is massively comprehensive, and in a lifetime you couldn't read all the books that Random House and Penguin publish in a year. Don't we have too much choice anyway?
So who needs independents?
The answer is that we all need independents. And we all crave independence. There is something stifling and oppressive about vast corporations – they can be bullying, tyrannical and crush innovation if it isn't part of their five year plans. And the independents, struggling or not, probably pay more tax anyway. Independents are like laboratories for the new, they can experiment, evolve rapidly, and do new things – free of the hierarchies that silence anything seriously different in large corporations. There are compelling reasons why the indie music scene is the most interesting, and the independent publishers repeatedly win far more than their fair share of literary prizes, whether the Booker, for poetry (of course – which big publishers are serious about poetry?) and especially fiction in translation.
I am really excited to be taking part in a panel debate chaired by Stephanie Flanders on how the current economic climate is affecting publishing, the arts and media industries and what that is doing to diversity of voices.
Should we bother about independents? Find out at the ICA on Thursday 6 June.

Ok, last post of the day. Even if I am just talking to my self, it is good to note this down. This is a visual response to my first post about style and instruments. Lesson learnt.. Don't be so friggin fridgid and use them all! It is a joy to create and it is a true joy to use colour and line! Just like it is to spew sound out of a guitar! It is all so similar and it is so obsessive of me to try and reduce my self to a nominal outlet. This capitalist society thinks we should all be highly good at just one thing. I think we are missing some important aspects there however….
Having a wiked time, healing, enjoying the process of development and exploration.
Good night fellow creatures or what ever you are or are not.

Things I would have written about
The past year has been a hectic one. The time for reflection on the year itself has yet to come, but it does seem as if I've been writing "I haven't had time to write" on this blog far too many times. Indeed, there is a lot I was almost dying to write about on this blog that simply gave way to assignments, projects and places I had to be. Those who followed my blog last year and the year before will remember the post frequency that is no longer; there is so much I didn't get a chance to write about this year that I probably don't remember half of it. What follows, though, is a list of things that stick to my mind, in no particular order, which have become outdated, old or pointless, and which I regret having to leave out.
- Those changes to the NCEA in June that were not only overdue, but actually pretty decent.
It feels strange not having written about that (I started a draft but didn't have time to finish it) after the extensive critique I've offered in the rest of this blog. But yes, I did very much like those changes, and yes, I thought they were pretty major changes. And most of all, I'm very, very relieved it didn't involved the awarding of "extra" credits. NCEA's on its road to recovery.
- The rise and fall of John Key, who made a rather entertaining entrance into the political limelight.
It doesn't take a fool to realise he started driving the National Party left, closing the gap between the two main parties. Then there was slip of tongue at the National Party conference, followed by the Labour Party's merciless attack in the following Tuesday's question time. Then he started announcing policies. That was when his poll ratings dropped. Oh dear.
- Those Christian parties, or lack thereof, who also had an entertaining skit.
I dare say they're not giving themselves a very good start. Close the failed party to open a new one, then announce co-leaders at different times without apparent co-operation and then we're not even sure who the co-leaders are? I don't remember whether or not it fell through in the end, but I mean, a coherent performance, well done, guys, well done.
- That referee's rather odd decision, which was a concern but can't be blamed for our early exit from the Cup.
I'm not saying the referee was right, or that we still would've lost had he called that forward pass, but that there are a million factors to a rugby game of which a referee's decision is but one. Sure, they wouldn't have scored that awful try. But I mean, we would have scored had we not kept giving them the ball in the last ten minutes! The referee is often used as a ventilation outlet simply because he is an easy target. It was rather sad to see all of New Zealand go down that path here.
- All those year thirteen students that take media studies and that quiet admiration I had for them.
Yes, the word was "admiration". Maybe I'm overestimating them, but I don't know how they do it. It seems to me like one of those subjects that consumes more time than most and probably requires more skill too. But then, they often seemed surprised when I said I was amazed by the short films they had produced. Maybe I'm just idolising them for no reason…
- The implications of the after-ball not happening, and I didn't say an after-ball, I said the after-ball.
There might have been attempts to organise one, and that there were many that took place, but the fact of the matter is, no matter how you look at it, there was no the after-ball. Why? Because there wasn't one at which most of us were. There's no-one to point a finger at, but it's a rather sad statement on our school's sense of unity. We are not the year I thought we would be.
- Maybe democracy was a mistake… a sad and depressing thought, but I have to explain this.
The school trustee elections and local body elections were both this year, both of which are based on the premise that the people that run units of our society are democratically elected. Parent voter turnout at my school's trustee election was 10 per cent (which isn't a bad turnout, apparently); the student election later that year gave an 18 per cent turnout. Local body election turnouts were what, 40 per cent? I've recently been contacted by the Elections Office to see if I'm interested in helping a big push to get people enrolled for next year's general election. Democracy, the idea that people are involved, seems to need a vast effort to exist at all. And then people are content to complain about elected officials? It might be their democratic right, but a democracy gets the government they deserve—especially if half of them didn't even vote.
There would be many more, obviously, that I wanted to write about at the time but had forgotten about a week later. But I suppose having to neglect your blog is the price you pay for deciding to stay at high school for another year for "social reasons". Maybe next year…
With the end of seventh form looming over, and my final national exams period on its way, I suppose what's to come in this blog is a collection of exam commentaries not unlike mine of last year and the year before (this year's four-exams-in-two-days part should be fun) and, as is the tradition, tributes to the institution I'm about to leave. For anyone that gives a damn. (You know you do!)

Franco Banfi's Amazing Underwater Cave Photos of Sassolo Lake in SwitzerlandBy Marhgil Macuha on Aug 13, 2011 in Amazing, Environment, Europe, Science, World •
Franco Banfi of Cadro, Switzerland took photographs of an underwater maze inside a glacier at Sassolo Lake, Switzerland, several international news sites reported on Thursday, August 11, 2011.
The photographs, which are shown below, were said to be extraordinary underwater caves and passages created on glaciers due to temperature changes between the months of summer and winter.
Mr. Banfi reportedly explores even the smallest passages within the underwater cave, with a considerable risk to his life.
"I'm a professional photographer so I have experience in ice diving in places like Antarctica, the Arctic, White Sea and dozens of mountain lakes. I do risk my life but I have years of experience including around 100 dives under the ice. It's the passion which drives me to get the perfect picture," Mr. Banfi was quoted as saying.
The photographs below were taken last summer while diving with his partner Sabrina, reports said.

Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia has launched a scathing attack on former President John Dramani Mahama for describing the National digital property addressing system as a '419 scam'.
According to Dr. Bawumia, the former president's position has clearly exposed his ignorance on the digital addressing system.
Former President Mahama during a unity walk in Cape-Coast said the NPP government must hold someone accountable for paying for a service that is available on mobile phones already through google map.
"…Otherwise, how can you launch a whopping GPS system that is freely available on our mobile phones and say it is the best national addressing system?… It's such a pity. Why would you embarrass the president so much?" Mahama told the gathering of NDC supporters in the Central region Sunday.
But the Vice President in a response said the former president must not engage in "parroting propaganda" and seek education on issues before he publicly exposes his ignorance.
"Yesterday I read that former President Mahama described Ghana's NDPAS as a 419 scam. When I read his reasoning for such a description, it was evident to me that he has no clue about what he was talking about and was just engaged in parroting propaganda.
"For former president Mahama to claim that Ghana's NDPAS and the accompanying GhanaPostGPS app is a 419 scam demonstrates a complete lack of understanding of the system. We have been witnesses to 8 years of his governance as vice president and president and we know what 419 scams look like.
"The National Digital Property Address System:
- is not your 419 GH¢200 million SADA Guinea fowl and tree planting scam
- is not your 419 Smarttys Bus Branding scam
- is not your 419 $23 million runway at Kumasi Airport
- is not your 419 GH¢ 952 million GYEEDA scam
- is not the 419 $14 million mansion for the vice president
- is not the 419 GH¢657m Woyome, Waterville and other judgement debt scams
"We know a 419 scam when we see one and that unfortunately was the hallmark of the administration of former president Mahama. Ghanaians will find out more soon as people are held legally accountable. With the record that former president Mahama has in the area of governance, it is incredible that he would have the effrontery to talk about 419 scams," the vice president said in a statement.
Dr. Bawumia admonished the former president not to engage in propaganda and speak to facts adding that propaganda will not help him in opposition.
"I should note that propaganda did not help former President Mahama when he was in government and it is certainly not going to help him in opposition. We welcome constructive criticism but before you criticize, please take your time to make sure you know what you are talking about otherwise you would be sadly exposed as being ignorant of simple facts as in this case."

The weather at Kielder has been damp and often misty for the last three days but the four chicks on Nest 1A are thriving and starting to look like ospreys. Feeding time is still a largely a peaceful affair with chick 1 sometimes eating last.
Although on 10 June chick 1 pulled chick 4 back as hunger won over manners!
There is occasional bullying but less on Nest 1A than Nest 2. Mostly they just sleep between meals or look at the world outside the nest. There is more preening now their feathers are appearing.
Feeds can last over an hour now but many are about 30-40 minutes long. Yesterday Mrs YA polished off the tail of one fish exactly an hour after it had been delivered by YA.
Finally a video where chick 4 manages to snatch a bite destined for chick 2. That feed was around four hours after the previous one.
All four chicks line up when there has been a significant gap between meals but often they eat every couple of hours and one or two of them sleep on for a bit before joining the queue!

I've been in NYC for the past two weeks watching sex scandal after sex scandal unfold out here.
First it was Eliot Spitzer and his now-famous, high-priced call girl. Then it was the new Governor admitting that he and his wife had extra-marital affairs during a 'rocky period' in their marriage.
And now it turns out that ex-NJ gov Jim McGreevy and his wife may have had threesomes with a former campaign aide.
McGreevy quit his job in 2005 when his former lover (not the threesome guy) and national security advisor threatened a lawsuit after being fired for having zero national security experience. And this new information – about a different young, male lover – is coming out during his nasty divorce.
Spitzer pretty much had to quit his job when it was revealed that he was identified in an FBI affidavit detailing the operation of a large-scale prostitution ring whose services he had used for many years.
But David Paterson, the new Governor of NY, came right out and admitted his affair, explained the circumstances (marriage problems) and how he resolved them (counciling) and, in my opinion, will come out of this non-scandal without any serious consequences.
So why will Mr. Paterson be given a pass on his infidelity while Spitzer and McGreevy's actions caused the downfall of their political careers?
No- it's not because David is Blind. It's because he followed the two big rules…
1. Don't pay for sex
Don't pay for sex with crystal meth like Ted Haggard. Not with lobbying favors like John McCain. And ESPECIALLY not with large amounts of money – like Eliot Spitzer.
Because it's illegal, you will be forced to resign when the truth is revealed. And make no mistake, it will be revealed.
You can assume that if some young, hot person is willing to take money to sleep with your ugly, old ass then will almost certainly tell their story to the press or the cops with the hope that they will be offered tons more cash for the movie-rights, a book deal and a layout in Playboy.
If you are going to have an affair, make sure it's with someone you know and trust.
2. Avoid Gay Sex
If you are 'happily' married to a woman then an extra-marital affair with another man will become a horribly disasterous scandal.
It's not just because of the gay thing- though that might be part of it for some people. Mainly it's because this scandal is two scandals is one:
a. he lied to us about his sexual orientation!
b. he cheated on his wife.
If you happen to also be a conservative politician with a long anti-gay voting record or a religious leader who spews anti-gay rhetoric in the name of Jesus then it's really three scandals since people will also accuse you of voting/preaching dishonestly – and possibly breaking God's laws as well.
Unless you are openly gay – or at least not married to a woman – you should generally avoid having sex with men unless you are willing to come out – which seems unlikely if you have spent your whole life hiding your sexual orientation. Note: it's too late to do this AFTER the scandal breaks.
Of course, the best solution is to just avoid having sex with anyone that is not your wife.
Other options include leaving politics (no one cares if you aren't in office or running for office) or – if you just have to be a politician – then consider running for office in France where your affairs may actually be an asset.
Tongue implanted in cheek – don't you think that thing about stick to sex with your wife should be the first course of action for a married couple? lol
Followed by, "If you can't do that…"?
Of course that makes sense to normal people like us, Jill.
But hey- I'm not a power-hungry politician who used to be a rich, connected lawyer who used to be a spoiled brat son of a power-hungry… etc… etc…

Cork or screw, eggs and tart
24 comments:
A lot of winemakers that I meet really prefer screw caps for the reasons above-quite valid indeed!ReplyDeleteReplies
It sounded logicalDelete
My preference from screw caps is because I am lazy and do not wish to fight with the cork screw;)ReplyDelete
I like the screw cap.ReplyDelete
Your cranberry tart looks so good!
The 2nd picture of your Cranberry Almond Caramel Tart is amazing!ReplyDelete
- AnonymousApril 2, 2012 at 9:40 AM
What about a cork inside and place a screw on top, you get the benefits of bothReplyDeleteReplies
Hahaha, that means we work twice as hard to get to the wine. That will taste more deliciousDelete
This tart looks fabulous! The colours and from what you say it would have a pleasant... tartness from cranberries too ;-)ReplyDelete
Puff pastry is not difficult to bake with, unless you have to blind-bake it, but tart with caramel is quite tricky (I know something about it...).
I don't mind wines with screw top because I know I'm drinking a rather not expensive wine, i.e. not possible to age more than five years, but I admit there is something traditional and magical with the corkscrew use, the "pop" sound of the cork going out etc.. There is one Austrian wine I buy regularly with a screw trop, it's delicious for its moderate price and I find it perfect for an unfussy afternoon drink, a picnic etc.. I think everything is a question of habit.
Some German producers (one makes extraordinary wines!) have a different method: they put glass corks, which can be taken out easily with one's hand and which are beautiful objects. Apparently glass corks allow the wine to age, but I suppose it must be expensive and tricky to make (it must perfectly fit the bottle while the cork expends). I have had these than 5 years old and quite expensive too and they were divine!Replies
Puff pastry and caramel is tricky, esp for first timer. I didn't realise that the mixture would rise and boil over. And I forgot the pastry would get really soft first and fall over Now I know.Delete
I have never seen those glass corks, it sounds interesting. Must be easier to close the bottle unlike with a regular cork. Its annoying when bits of cork get into the wine.
One red wine I like comes with screw top (Bin 555). Not expensive, delicious and easy to open:)
I have just checked it. I have never seen it here. In fact there are very few non-European wines sold in Switzerland and France. I suppose it's like this in most wine-producing countries... There is a strong protection (and attachment) first of the national wines, and then to European wines in general.Delete
All we get here from the New World is really awful.
I use old porto corks to close wine (they have a plastic cap at the top). Otherwise there are special corks to close wine or even the vacuum systems... but my porto corks are enough for the everyday wine.I also use my old glass corks of course. They are such beautiful objects.
When I have a special, very good bottle, I never close it back. I drink it the same night.
Thats a pity, I was pleasantly surprised to find Bin 555 in Sweden. Swiss chocolates (toblerone, lindt etc) is sold worldwide, even in chocolate producing countries. In return Switzerland should sell non-EU wines:)Delete
Its a good idea to finish the bottle. Its a simpler solution.
Well, I do prefer a cork as I just love the sound of the cork being pulled from the bottle but if I'm at a BYO restaurant and the service is ordinary it's so handy to have brought a screw-top bottle so you don't have to die of thirst as you wait for the waitress to remember that you're there. Definitely, a cork makes me feel the wine must be superior! xxReplyDeleteReplies
I wonder if restaurants can charge corkage for screw top bottles:)Delete
I really want that tart! I have next to no experience with puff pastry, but this seems like the perfect way to get some!ReplyDeleteReplies
Sorry, all gone. Pictures is all I have now:)Delete
I need that in my life! That tart looks incredibleReplyDelete
I always learn something when I stop by...never knew about the cork fungus. And I'm not sure I want to know about virgin boys eggs :/ Off to see your berry tart~ReplyDelete
Yup, still interested, going over to check it out shortly.ReplyDelete
Have you seen the plastic corks? The first time we saw it we were a little taken aback, poked at it and wondered if it was a natural cork gone bad ... duh. I guess that'll work for people afraid of fungus and the snobs who are against screw tops :P
I'm ok any which way ... not fussy, very easy-going, simple person :)Replies
Yes I've seen those, some of the bubbly has it.Delete
Same here, its the contents that matter to me, now how the bottle is sealed since we throw that away anyway. Like presents, I prefer whats inside rather than the type of wrapping paper used:)

Oil futures rose on Thursday after the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries agreed to keep its collective oil output ceiling unchanged for the second half of the year at 30 million barrels per day.
Continue Reading Below
The move implies a supply cut of 1.6 million bpd, OPEC Secretary General Abdullah al-Badri said, and comes after several OPEC members had called on Saudi Arabia, the group's top producer, to trim its excess supply to the agreed limit as a way to defend crude at $100 a barrel.
Oil prices on both sides of the Atlantic had fluctuated earlier, awaiting the results of the OPEC meeting and as investors fidgeted ahead of the closely watched Greek elections at the weekend.
The more actively traded Brent August crude ended up 45 cents at $97.17 a barrel. The expiring July Brent crude settled down 10 cents at $97.03, the lowest level since January 2011.
U.S. July crude settled at $83.91 a barrel, gaining $1.29, after hitting a session high of $83.93. It had ended the previous session at the lowest since Oct. 6.
"Oil prices rallied on OPEC seemingly holding together by agreeing to a production ceiling," said John Kilduff, partner at Again Capital in New York.
"It was a victory for the group that the meeting did not end in disarray, he said.
The recent strong refinery activity in the U.S. gave West Texas Intermediate, the U.S. benchmark, more of lift than Brent, Kilduff said, noting that Brent had been "held back by the continuing euro debt crisis, punctuated by the upcoming Greek elections," he added.
Volumes were subdued, with both Brent and U.S. crude trading about 10 percent below their 30-day averages, according to Reuters data.
Earlier, Brent crude alternately moved on either side on unchanged, as investors believed the euro zone debt crisis was far from over, after ratings agency Moody's downgraded Spanish sovereign debt to one notch above junk status.
U.S. crude rose, initially lifted by gains on Wall Street, despite data showing that the number of Americans filing for jobless benefits rose last week for the fifth time in six weeks. The data underlined persistent weakness in the labor market in the world's largest oil consumer.
Another set of data showed that consumer prices fell in May, raising fresh hopes that the U.S. Federal Reserve would help the weakening economy though additional monetary stimulus.
Extra Saudi oil is said to be largely responsible for lifting OPEC output to 31.6 million bpd, well above the group's formal target that was first set in December.
Oil prices have dropped from a $128 peak for Brent crude in March to $97, and from $110 for U.S. crude, also set in March, to $83, in part because the economic outlook has darkened but also because of increased Saudi output that in April set a 30-year high of 10.1 million bpd.
Raising output was a deliberate move by Riyadh to counter the possibility that Iranian oil output falls heavily when a European Union embargo on Tehran starts next month. Iranian production is already down to a 20-year low.

Book: The Book Thief
Author: Markus Zusak
Even this book's synopsis is one of the finest I've read, describing Markus Zusak's international bestseller as, "A small story, about: a girl, an accordionist, some fanatical Germans, a Jewish fist fighter, and quite a lot of thievery."
When it cursorily informed me that, "This novel is narrated by Death", in the customary block capitals, I immediately dreaded a poor imitation of Discworld. However, Zusak's novel could scarcely be more different to Pratchett's series. Far from entertaining flights of fantasy, this is a harrowing tale of a young girl in Nazi Germany.
Even given the setting, protagonist Liesel Meminger can hardly be said to have luck on her side: the story begins and ends with devastating visits from the narrator. But despite the immense anguish of her childhood, she finds solace in stealing books, and learning from them the power of words.
The writing is exquisitely crafted throughout, making this a long, but constantly rewarding read. Zusak also expertly uses his unexpectedly compassionate narrator to view humanity from the outside, mourning the atrocities and tragedy of the war, but above all celebrating the love and virtue to be found everywhere, even in the darkest hours of our history.
Utterly heart-rending.

Thanksgiving with my family
January 19, 2010 at 8:12 pm Leave a comment
We took the kids back to the states for their year end holidays last Nov-Dec. We went to CA(Hollywood, San Diego, & San Francisco), Las Vegas, Lake Tahoe/Mammoth Lakes, and Iowa. Ate at many fabulous places. Will back post those restaurants later. I got a chance to spend Thanksgiving with my siblings and cousins. That was also the highlight of great eating for me.
Before Turkey Day, we had a bbq-chicken, pork ribs and 2inch thick steaks plus great salads. We had so much meat that night and were all so finger licking good. I didn't have time to take photos of the other meats and salads. I was too in awe of the giant steaks.lol The steaks were simple worcestershire sauce and salt and pepper. Dh made sure I was in charge of those so my sis wouldn't marinade it with anything fancy or funky sauces. But the marinades she put on the chix and pork ribs were so good. The kids got to make smores(1st time ever) after the steaks were done. That was fun for them. My sis actually made a pit for barbeque right in the middle of her garden. Thanksgiving was wonderful. We wnet to 3 houses. I didn't touch any turkey at the first 2 houses. I was saving my stomach for Melody's roast turkey at my sis' house. The turkey was covered with beer, apple cider and salt overnight. Onions and celerys were stuffed inside when it went into the oven. She worked all night chopping and preparing the ingredients for the next night's feast after just arriving hours only from LA. I helped out by making salads(7-layer and taco) and appetizers(jellos with fruit, devilled eggs and pastry filled with munster cheese, spinach and beef with marinara sauce. Dh bought 2 very expensive French champagne-Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin Brut Rose (for toasting Melody's(my niece) engagement to Chris and celebrating Thanksgiving. Lots of guests brought wines. My sis invited lots of people, not just family. She also had Esaan food b/c she knew I love it. It's been 8 years since I went back to Iowa. It was great to be around my brothers and sisters and nieces and nephews and cousins I hadn't seen for a long time. The turkey was the best I've ever had in a long time-so juicy and tasty. I will use that combo of beer/ apple cider from now on when I roast turkeys.

3 Steps to Let Your Personal Brand Statement Shine in Your Resume
You try to make sure your personal brand says what you want it to say. You're a hard worker; a strong leader; a dyed-in-the-wool star employee. You can do the job you're applying for with your hands tied behind your back and your eyes closed. But what does your resume say?
Employers hire people, not skillsets, qualifications or associations. They're looking for values that mesh with their own. They want someone who's pleasant to work with. They want a positive attitude. Where are they going to look on your resume for that information?
Your personal brand statement.
Your personal brand statement shows your target employer how you might offer them unique solutions. It packages your experience, values and goals into one, providing an overall picture of you. You – Mr. or Ms. Up and Coming -, with your smiling face, positive attitude, great values and helpfulness.
With this in mind, let's look at a few tips to write that awesome statement that grabs them by the hiring form.
3 Tips to Make Your Personal Brand Statement Stand Out
Are you "organized and detail-oriented"? How about a "self-motivated and dedicated professional"? Or maybe you "work well under pressure".
So are thousands of others, and you can guarantee your prospective employer has seen several resumes that said the same. You need to find something less general and more meaningful.
1. Get specific about your goals and aspirations.
Employees aren't looking for someone who will be here one day and gone the next. They want someone that's worth the investment.
On the other side, most job seekers aren't looking for a one-off job, either. If you're worried about personal brand, you're most likely looking for a career, which means long-term aspirations.
Instead of saying you're "ambitious and energetic," or "self-motivated and dedicated," put those words into a deeper explanation. What do you really want to achieve? Creative director in five years? Team lead in two years? What's your ultimate goal?
2. Be true to yourself.
What do you really value? Sharing your true professional values is as important for you as it is for your prospective employers. If your values don't mesh, you'll both be unhappy. For example, if you value creative-freedom, you wouldn't be very happy under micromanagement.
Write down your values – anything that comes to mind. Rate them from one to ten, and then choose the top one or two. What can you absolutely not work without?
3. Tie in your previous experience.
How has your experience reflected your goals and values? Think about the moments that prove you're self-motivated (for instance). What has happened in your previous or current position that shows you want to become management? How can you show that you're looking for a long-term career?
Write out a few sentences that tie these things together. For example:
- Six years at my past job shows that I'm looking long-term. (looking for a career)
- I saw a need in my shipping department for better organization and set up a program that has saved the company x number of hours. (self-motivation)
Writing Out Your Personal Brand Statement
Now that you've followed the steps above, how can you put that into 40 words or less? Here's a quick example.
Values: Challenges and design innovation
Goals: Work with innovative teams
Experience: Multinational agencies and global marketing campaigns
Statement: As a veteran graphic designer working in an ad agency for the past 10 years, I've been able to be on the cutting edge of design for several global marketing campaigns. I enjoy the challenge of working with innovative design teams.
Final Thoughts
There are going to be hundreds, if not thousands of people applying for the same position as you. Many of them will have personal brand statements on their resumes, and some will be good ones. Help yours stand out from the rest: share your true values, be specific with your goals, and showcase past experiences that fall in line with them. You're a super star; let them see it!

Live snaps of what's purported to be Sony Ericsson's upcoming all-singing, all-dancing kit, the Nozomi LT26i, have been sighted online, giving smartfans the first peek at what might be the phone-maker's debut HD dual core effort.
The photos reveal an all-white smartie that doesn't look a mile off the ultra-slim dimensions of the Xperia Arc range, except it appears to be considerably flatter and possibly even thinner.
The source claims the handset is powered by a 1.5GHz dual core processor, which, if it pans out, would make it the first of its kind from SE's stable. The real highlight of the show, though, is the fact the handset offers a native 1280 x 720 resolution, as in 720p HD.
This comes with a positively eye-popping 320dpi pixel density, which based on the assumption the screen is 4.3 inches, works out to a 341.54ppi (pixels per inch), higher than that of the iPhone 4S's retina display at 329.64ppi.
Also on board are two front and rear facing cameras. The resolutions for these are as yet unknown but we expect at least an eight-pixel number in the back just like the Arcs.
Whether this handset is the same as the recently rumoured Xperia Arc HD or a completely new model remains a mystery, as does a date for its official announcement. However, with year almost at an end, it's likely to be unveiled early next year at the Mobile World World Congress.
Rest assured, you'll among the first to know as soon as we do.

The Smell and Taste Treatment and Research Foundation in Chicago released a study claiming that the smell of jasmine improved the batting for some major league baseball players. They gave players from the Chicago White Sox armbands with the scent of jasmine and assessed their mechanics, which improved due to the scent. Jasmine is able to increase reaction time in subjects studied. Dr. Alan Hirsch who conducted this study, did also a study on bowling. Bowlers who wore a mask with jasmine bowled better than those who wore a plain mask. Hirsch says that jasmine activates a part in our brain that makes us more alert and focused.
There are also studies done on other scents that could be useful in everyday ailments. Here is a list of those scents:
To Reduce Stress: Cucumber and green apple.
Relaxation: Vanilla and lavender.
Improve learning ability: Mixed floral scent.
Increase your libido: Men- lavender, pumpkin pie, and doughnuts. Women- Cucumber

People aren't the only living creatures that love to dance. And we're not talking about animals. Believe it or not, there is a plant that also enjoys grooving to the beat.
Codariocalyx motorius (or Desmodium gyrans), also known as the Telegraph plant or semaphore plant, is quite the fascinating plant! It is a tropical Asian shrub that has rapid plant movement—just like the Sensitive Plant and the Venus flytrap.The leaves move up and down rhythmically, as if the plant is dancing or sending out Telegraph message.
And best of all, you don't need a time lapse camera to see the movements, as the rapid movements are visible to the naked eye. The plant is made up of a set of leaflets-one larger and two smaller leaflets that are connected by a "hinge," which allows the leaflets to lift and rotate itself.
However, the plant will only "dance" where there is light. Just like a sunflower would turn its head towards the sunlight, the Codariocalyx motorius dances because it wants to absorb the most energy from the sun. Sometimes, the plant will react to the slightest of touch or small vibrations. In the evening or when it is dark, the leaves droop downwards.
The Telegraph Plant would be a fun houseplant for kids or anyone that amuses easily! Simply plant in fertile, well-drained soil and place in a sunny spot (full sun). The more sun the plant gets, the greener and larger the leaves will be. Be sure to keep the soil moist and try not to let the soil dry between watering. It will also produce small, purple flowers.
In the wild, these dancing plants are commonly in Asian countries such as, Bangladesh, China, India, Laos, Malaysia, Pakistan and Thailand. Interestingly, this plant also contains a wide variety of alkaloids that can be used to make pharmaceuticals.
Here is a video clip of the plant dancing:

An organization put together to help put bullying to an end
Evie Clause
Guest Writer
Rachel's Challenge, a group put together based on a sad tragedy to try and put an end to bullying, visited Port Huron Schools on Tuesday, Feb. 10 to try and prevent bullying in not only schools, but everywhere in the community.
They started this after the horrible massacre happened at Columbine High School in Colorado on April 20, 1999, where 12 students and 1 teacher were murdered, and 21 others were injured by two students who had entered the school during the day planning to hurt many.
Rachel always knew she was going to make an impact and change the world. Fort Gratiot Middle School student Lauren Poosch, 13, from Port Huron said, "It was a very inspirational and touching speech. It makes you think about how your actions could affect one another. I really enjoyed this assembly." Rachel accomplished her dream and is still helping others around the world today.
Rachel had many dreams about how to spread kindness to others and how to make the world a better place for everyone.
After the tragic event, one day her dad was looking through her stuff and happened to find an old crumbled up English paper that was never turned in behind her bed. He opened it up, and the paper was all about how to spread happiness and how to be kind.
It also included five goals that we could try to accomplish. Those goals were, "dream big and believe in yourself, be kind to others, practice positive gossip, show appreciation to those you love, and be the answer."
Rachel also wanted the reader to start a chain reaction, once you start doing Rachel's challenges, try to get others to join you.
Rachel wanted others to be inspired, touched, and helped by her and her message. She had drawn a hand on the back of her dresser when she was younger and inside she wrote "These hands belong to Rachel Joy Scott and will someday touch millions of people's hearts." She has made a large impact on the lives of many.
Rachel was always such a happy person that had big dreams. She knew she would make them come true. Rachel was a strong person and she stood up for not only herself but others. She would sacrifice herself for another person.
A few days after Rachel's funeral, Rachel's dad got a strange call from a man he didn't know that said he was having a reoccurring dream about his daughter and it was very odd, but Rachel's father never really thought twice about it until he picked up his daughter's backpack from the police station. Rachel's dad went through her bag, only to find a drawing in the back of a notebook that had 13 teardrops coming from a pair of eyes in the sky. This picture described the man's dream. The 13 drops represent the number of lives that were taken by two former students at that horrifying event. Near the bottom of the drawing was a rose growing, as if the tears were creating new life and helping someone or something.
Rachel was a very inspirational girl that has helped many by spreading kindness and love to all. She wanted to start a chain reaction, a reaction of compassion, love, and hope to help others.
