quite shocking indeed.

a new type of chewing gum is in the process of development. it has quite an electric flavor... literally  it contains chewy edible pellets that react with the enzymes in your saliva and emit an electrical charge. it appears to be perfect for pranks but is still under development.

to all those skeptics out there, mind contsol is possible. theres a new toy on the market that involves concentration to use it. it provides a visual to your ability to recognize when you are concentrating and when your not.

for many many years there has been conflict between the Protestents and the Catholics in Northern Ireland. The Protestants wish to be a part of the United Kingdom, while the Catholics wish to be a part of Ireland. recently a silent protest occurred when more than one thousand protesters gathered in belfast carrying large Union flags. a century old tradition of flying the Union flagg over city hall three hundred and sixty five days a year was recently reduced by Belfast's city council to eighteen days a year. what started out as peaceful turned when the protestants passed a catholic neighborhood where they threw bottles at each other resulting in skirmishes with the police.

french military strive determined to wipe terrorism off the slate in Mali. through combined air and ground assaults on terrorist and rebel strongholds they hope to drive rebel forces out of Mali.

um... yeah.

500 +israeli police are sent to forcefully evacuate the E1 construction location of protesters trespassing on a 5 sq mile location which will be the building site for 3,000 plus living complexes in the west bank.

Raspberry Pi Anyone?

new technology enables us to make advancements in the world we thought we might never see. thanks thanks to Upton the rpi is possibly the worlds smallest computer and definitely the cheapest, selling at a price of twenty five dollars. being the size of a credit card and less than a centimeter thick, it is able to run a free open-source linux operating system, plugs into any tv, can power 3d graphics, connects to the internet, has two usb ports, an sd card slot, an ethernet connection port, and is charged by a universal usb mobile charger. when rpi launched its release on the market it sold out ten thousand immediately. this product is perfect for DIY geeks who program their own computer software and let their imaginations run wild.

sad.

a woman in new delhi, india died this month due to the resulting infection from a violent gang rape. the police have already arrested six suspects including a bus driver and a minor. people have began protesting and demanding for more protection to women and more punishment to those behind assaults. the protests are so large that police have closed down roads, public transportation, and the subways in certain areas. the woman was airlifted to singapore for treatment. doctors say that she died “peacefully” early saturday. she had suffered severe organ failure and injuries to her body and brain. though her name has not been released protesters are calling her damini, meaning lightning in hindi.

man or cyborg?

 A man was born with a disease that slowly degrades your eyesight. Over the course of many years he became blind and had to rely on the help of others to do even the simplest tasks of everyday life. Thanks to more modern technology he was able to undergo a surgery that involved the placing of a microchip and other components into his eyes that projected an image onto his retinas and gave him back his sight. Or as he said his “independence”. Though his sight is extremely blurry he can still pick out shapes and colors. He no longer has to depend on others to help him because he can now do it all on his own.
