Morenci, Mich. & Fayette, Ohio
What does your smartphone do? Mine? I don’t have one, but yours can do plenty. Wired has a nifty graphic demonstrating how more than 40 gadgets are now present on a single iPhone. When you scroll over the graphic, a “magnifying glass” appears to make each gadget readable. On your smartphone, I suppose you can scroll with your fingertip.

Go back a thousand years of relationships and everyone in Europe is related. And go back a few more generations and everyone’s tied together:
A genetic survey concludes that all Europeans living today are related to the same set of ancestors who lived 1,000 years ago. And you wouldn’t have to go back much further to find that everyone in the world is related to each other.
“We find it remarkable because it’s counterintuitive to us,” Graham Coop, an evolutionary biologist at the University of California at Davis, told NBC News. “But it’s not totally unexpected, based on genetic analysis.”The cold, hard genetic evidence points to a warm and fuzzy fact. “It underlines the commonality of all of our histories,” Coop said. “You don’t have to go back many generations to find that we’re all related to each other.”

Any Cyndi Lauper fans out there? There’s a great interview by Brooke Gladstone from “On the Media.” Take the short audio, if you wish, but I recommend the full video.

Yeah, I’ve been to this place. I was talked into going to this place. Throwed rolls are entertaining, but I wasn’t after entertainment. It’s a great place to bloat, but then again, I wasn’t seeking bloat.

A not from the Britton-Deerfield superintendent:
Media:
You may or may not have heard that a Deerfield Elementary principal was arrested for drunk driving. This is NOT our Lenawee County Britton Deerfield Principal, Stacy Johnson. Unfortunately for the Novi school system, it is their Deerfield Elementary principal.
Please help extinguish any rumors you may hear.
Sincerely,
Supt. Pelham

This is a few months old, but if you haven’t seen it yet, it’s entertaining to watch the rocket scientists get excited at JPL.
