'The average has gone from 141sqm in 2006 to 111sqm now and is not expected to rise again in the foreseeable future, due to rising consumer preference for smaller, more secure and easier to maintain homes in the face of rising property rates and utility costs'

Micro-bouqets
The images below may look like images from your garden, but these are created by chemical interactions in beakers on the scale of microns, rather than inches or cm.
+Harvard University 's Wim L. Noorduin, lead author of the work that just appeared in Science, _ noted in a report on phys.org (http://goo.gl/BJbSd), "For at least 200 years, people have been intrigued by how complex shapes could have evolved in nature. This work helps to demonstrate what's possible just through environmental, chemical changes."
Also from that story: To create the flower structures, Noorduin and his colleagues dissolve barium chloride (a salt) and sodium silicate (also known as waterglass) into a beaker of water. Carbon dioxide from air naturally dissolves in the water, setting off a reaction which precipitates barium carbonate crystals. As a byp... more »

Why the new Google+ rocks for writers.
Some writers are less than gruntled about Google+'s new design. Here's why they should love it.
The complaint goes like this: The new Google+ emphasizes pictures and de-emphasizes words, which is a Pinterest-like move that panders to non-readers and disadvantages the word people.
This whole argument is false, and here's why:
Falsehood #1: You need a lot of words, not a picture, to promote writing.
It's false because that's how the most successful books are promoted: with pictures, not a wall of words. Ask any book jacket designer.
Falsehood #2: A "card" doesn't have enough information to convey what's in a written work.
In fact, that's how libraries were organized for centuries -- with a catalog of cards.

My great-nephew Nic Clegg skydiving.
16th May 2013 - RIP in a car accident.
from Las Cruces Sun News - Mechanical engineering student and a Crimson scholar. Nic was [also] a lifeguard at NMSU. [His parents met as lifeguards on Clifton Beach in Cape Town]. The Aquatic Centre was closed Friday and will remain closed throughout the weekend "During this time of grieving, it would really be unsafe and irresponsible" for the Centre to be open Danny Montoya said.

+23 Ultraconserved Words
A study by Professor of Evolutionary Biology Mark Pagel and his team used statistical methods to show that certain words (23 of them) have changed so slowly over long periods of time as to retain traces of their ancestry for up to 10,000 or more years.
The words:
- thou
- I
- not
- that
- we
- to give
- who
- this
- what
- man/male
- ye
- old
- mother
- to hear
- hand
- fire
- to pull
- black
- to flow
- bark
- ashes
- to spit
- worm
The study: http://www.pnas.org/content/early/2013/05/01/1218726110
I note, with sadness, that neither #Cableicous nor #Kamelåså are on that list.

No extension breakage due to the new Google+
I'm freakin' amazed right now! I was watching +Vic Gundotra present the new Google+ stream and I was thinking that for sure I would now have to work frantically for hours to adapt +Do Share to the new Google+ code.
I got home and refreshed, and to my surprise *everything still works!*
Something like this doesn't happen by chance, this shows that the Google+ team took into account that there are extensions out there that rely on Google+'s UI code, and that CSS class names and the such should not change, all this while completely redesigning how the stream looks and behaves.
Big respect!
This totally makes up to how +Dave Besbris warned against extensions breaking last time things moved around :)

Newly declared Marine Protected Area (MPA). Prince Edward and Marion Islands, are located almost 2,000km south of South Africa in the Southern Ocean. Subject to rampant poaching during the late 1990s. Spectacular marine wildlife, including albatrosses, penguins, killer whales and Patagonian toothfish.

Centralia, an American Tragedy.....
I went to this place looking for a little history and a little nature. What I found was a quiet natural disaster I had never heard of. The swamp marsh formed between the Weeki-Watchee and Chassahowitzka spring river systems creates the worlds most ideal habitat for the specific requirements of the majestic Bald Cypress. As a result of this rare environment, and fed by some of the cleanest water in the world, these trees where monsters of rare proportion many of whom where more than a thousand years old. This place was on the level of Yosemite or California's great Redwood Forest yet because it was full of money and off the map it was plundered. In twenty years the Centralia Lumber Company clean cut what had taken nature luck and thousands of years to build, the largest stand of the largest cypress the world has ever known. The town of 1500 residents dried... more »

Welcome to the G+ Campus
Frequently we ask ourselves what G+ really is. Some say it is a kinda giant brain and we all appear to be glial cells in it. Others talk about the singularity. Most of us think it's a social network because that's the most familiar concept we have and we are comfortable with that. Yet it's unlike any social network we have known before. Trends emerge almost spontaneously, subjects arising independently in an emergent culture way where synchronicity plays a vital part.
But really it's none of that. +Marisa Goudy nailed it when she said it reminded her of campus. At College synchronicity is everywhere because everything there has been engineered to challenge your mind, broaden your horizons and make you learn.

Richard Wagner's Opera „Tannhäuser“ in Düsseldorf
The opera cancelled, the performance now four hours of music. Intended to show Wagner's anti-semitism - 12 people were taken to hospital during the performance in a Nazi setting.
The link is a videoclip in German, but the images will speak across language barriers.

Tldr; talk to your kids, listen just as much, embrace language evolution and value it's history as we are many generations living together and need communication across those barriers.
-
Having missed out on these trends, I've realized I'm going to be put out of context by my daughters generation.
But also realized that being consistent in my communication with my daughter I will most likely both be able to pass on the ability to her to be able to communicate with my generation. And with her, the internet (ie urban dictionary) and talks like these I will most likely learn just enough to be able to understand their version, while avoiding being the "hip parent" (that most often overshoots and fails).

SU joins thousands across the world in walking for the right to safe water

Organised by the Stellenbosch University Water Institute (http://www0.sun.ac.za/water/) and the NEPAD Southern African Network of Water Centres of Excellence (SANWATCE), more than 100 members of staff and students, including the executive mayor of Stellenbosch, Mr Conrad Sidego, walked the 2.4 km on Tuesday 19 March.
