The card is shaped differently so that a blind user can feel the text braille instructions, a low vision user can read the important information in high contrast & because of the bump, blind users can use the QR codes to know which corner of the card to scan. Notice the ridge around the QR code in the bottom right. It's brilliant! The second side is in small text.

The scientific name for the animal on the right, the common eland, is tragelaphus oryx. The smaller animal, on the left, is commonly known as a scimitar-horned oryx. The two species are related!
Code, the common eland, is a gentle giant who loves to entertain human guests. He'll tolerate much taunting from his distant cousins before making a head gesture that'll scare them away.
P.S. Flickr has been up and down this morning. It's back up at the moment, but I need to leave for work. Will catch up soon!

Meet Johno, not the sort of guy you introduce to your daughter or to your wife for that matter.
The 'Bloke Code' focuses on a group of friends, 5 guys aged 29 to 34, all with varying lives, some married or settled, and some not so settled. We meet the guys in a bar, Johno is recanting another of his escapades, the one where her husband comes home early.#theblokecode
Coming soon to a festival near you.

Jaina Lefevre: Hi Moms!
Debra Charron: "Hiyas sweetie"
Deets Carroll: hey kiddo! Have a good day?
Jaina Lefevre shrugs. 'It's okay." She looks over at Deb. "Today's it, right?"
Debra Charron nods as she removes some civilian clothes from her closet and begins to dress, "Yes Starfish, its supposed to be very soon now"
Jaina Lefevre looks at Deb. "I'm coming to watch, okay? I want to see you kick his ...butt." she looks down at herself. "I should put on pants maybe?"
Debra Charron nods and smiles as she slips on her oldest jacket and reaches for the gunbelt, "The little beach is pretty grimy - pants would be a great idea"
Deets Carroll nods to Jaina. "It's today." She reaches under the bed and pulls out a heavy trunk. "Pants might be warmer." She opens the trunk and begins to dress as well.
Jaina Lefevre goes to find pants and pulls them on, taking her skirt off. "Anything else I can do? Like, borrow a gun?"
Deets Carroll finishes braiding her hair and glares at the child. "You and your slingshot are what started this mess. I don't think giving you a gun is the wisest move.
Debra Charron smiles at Jania and kneels down to give her a hug, "Sweetie, the idea is that just Tres and I have guns - to settle this. This way we don't have to make a war and get lotsa other people fight"
Jaina Lefevre narrows her eyes at Deets. "IT was NOT my fault. Don't blame me. I thought it was, but it wasn't. He was told to get me when Assbrink saw me on the camera. He /told/ me that."
Jaina Lefevre turns and wraps her arms around Deb and whispers. "Don't you let him hurt you, Mommy. He's a pansy."
Deets Carroll gazes into her trunk trying to choose between a sniper rifle or the combat shotgun, and finally chooses the shotgun.
Debra Charron hugs Jania and struggles with how much reality she needs to make the child aware of, ultimately deciding that the event itself will be eye-opening enough. "Starfish, I love you. Tres has needed taking-down for a long time, so if this hadn't happened it'd just be over something else"
Debra Charron flips open her cell and makes a quick call
Jaina Lefevre kisses her cheeks and hugs her tight. "Well, tell Mom that because it's NOT my FAULT!"
Deets Carroll slips on her shades and straightens, shrugging to get the heavy vest to sit comfortably. She sighs, and crouches to the child's level. "I know it's not your fault, Jaina. I shouldn't have said that. We're all just a little on edge." She offers an armored hug.
Jaina Lefevre goes to hug Deets. "Don't say those thiings. That's not nice. We gotta be there for Moms so she can win."
Deets Carroll smiles, and hugs the child close. "You can cheer for her. Get your friends, too." She releases the girl and stands.
Debra Charron extracts her USP from its holster and carefully examines it, checking its function, sights and heft. She ejects the magazine and inserts a fresh one, locking it in place before returning the weapon to its holster
Debra Charron looks at the clock over the bed, "Well - we'd better get down there. I'd hate to be late for my own duel." Deb hugs Jania again and whispers, "I love you Starfish" before releasing her and turning to Deets. Deb smiles and gives her an awkward hug over her tactical vest, "I love you too Deets"
Jaina Lefevre slips a little ribbon dolly into Deb's pocket. Hair ribbons and knots. "IT's a good luck charm. Everyone hasta have those."
Deets Carroll smiles and returns Deb's hug. "Just kick his ass."
Jaina Lefevre is ready to go, and holds Deb's hand a moment or two before letting her go.
Deets Carroll checks the time. "I should get down and check the place out. I'll see you soon."

Bletchley Park
The nineteenth-century mansion and estate near Milton Keynes in Buckinghamshire,
has received latter-day fame as the central site for British codebreakers during World War II, although at the time personnel and location of the facility was a closely guarded secret, the estate housed the worlds first code breaking computer. Early personnel on the GC&CS team included Alan Turing, Gordon Welchman, Hugh Alexander and Stuart Milner-Barry.

Vodafone has announced plans to provide coding training to 1,000 teenage girls across 26 countries in what is the world’s furthest-reaching in-person global coding programme of its kind. The commitment was announced in advance of @WomenScienceDay. Vodafone is partnering with @CodeFirstGirls to address widening gender gap in STEM.
For many years, women and girls have played an important role in science and technology. Without the work of technology pioneers like Hedy Lamarr and Barbara Liskov, we would not have Wi-Fi and email as we know it. But despite this, women and girls are still grossly under-represented in science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM) education and careers. Only 35% of girls enter further education in STEM subjects, and many have little encouragement to equip themselves with the skills to thrive in these industries.
Vodafone wants to help change this. In a partnership with social enterprise Code First: Girls, Vodafone’s #CodeLikeAGirl programme will provide five-day, coding workshops for girls, ages 14-18, across its geographical footprint in Europe, India, the Middle East, South Africa and Australasia. In 2017, 500 girls across Vodafone’s 26 markets were taught to code as part of the Vodafone and Code First: Girls partnership. This year, 1,000 teenage girls will benefit from the programme.
Hello !
These is uncertain times, uncertain. So, I send out the Batmans, to prowl the streets and reassure the People of Gravesend, who feel better if a super hero is striking poses nearby.
"OBJ !" * cries a bulbous nosed Troll, passing by. "That's a fine Elvis impersonation."
"Ha ha ha !" laughs the Batman indlugently (yes, Plum Duff Batman, for those who have been here before). "This is my 'Billy Idol'. Were I to do Elvis I would risk Armageddon, for that is the code signal that foul smelling Communists have landed and the President must obliterate us all lest we fall under the yoke of totalitarianism."
"Oh..." says the Troll. "I see. I have to say it does look like Elvis, and in Gravesend no-one knows this 'Billy Idol'..."
"Are you telling me the Communists HAVE landed ? OMG ! OMG !"
It's a misunderstanding. I have to go and sort it out, speak soon.
Walk Tall !
* OBJ - jive talk for Oh By Jingo, a polite expletive. Not like OMG, which is rude.

A combination of very sore feet (ow, blisters) and low creativity means I'm not going to complete this year's Cardiff Photomarathon. This makes me very sad. I wish I could recapture the enthusiasm I had in the previous Photomarathons — the enthusiasm that inspired me to create Thing a Week. Maybe one day I'll get my groove back. Fingers crossed.
This picture was the second topic — 'Poetry' — and the only picture I took that I was happy with. I'm uploading it here because it seems like the kind of picture that people might like to use to illustrate a blog post. Sometimes these bloggers give me credit too, which is very kind. But that's another story.
(P.S. I really don't like the new Flickr!)
More than 60 teachers from the Lower Mainland gathered today at the Microsoft Centre of Excellence in downtown Vancouver to learn basic coding techniques from some of the best instructors in the industry – all to make sure BC students have the skills they need to succeed in today’s changing world.
Education Minister Mike Bernier joined teachers in an interactive ping pong ice breaker game. Teams had to create a simple algorithm to guide a blindfolded teammate to retrieve a ping pong ball. The game helps develop communication and critical thinking – vital skills needed for future success.

Men’s best defense against the monthly Her-ricane.
Men no longer need to fear the wrath of menstrual madness. MEDL Mobile is pleased—and very relieved—to introduce Code Red: a simple but powerful menstrual calendar for men to keep track of—and survive—their girlfriend’s/fiancé’s/wife’s monthly cycle.
SIMPLER IS SAFER
What makes Code Red so much more valuable than other period tracking apps is the profound simplicity and ease of use.
All you have to do is set the start day of her most recent cycle, and the app takes care of the rest!
When the tracking starts, Code Red will provide special alert messages for every phase in her cycle. There are five different alerts, and each calendar day comes equipped with a wealth of tips and advice to brave even the most violent of storms.
“Every month, women go through the same ups and downs, but the men in our lives never seem to catch on,” said Lisi Harrison, Co-Creator and Author of New York Times #1 Bestselling series’ The Clique and Alphas.
“Code Red will be a life saver for thousands of guys out there,” said Kevin Harrison, Co-Creator, “Its each guys personal color coded Terror Alert System…”
ALERTS
Smooth Sailing Alert --- Let’s you know when she’s feeling like a team player.
Horny Alert --- Let’s you know when you’re able to score.
PMS Alert --- Let’s you know when to hit the (cold) showers.
Ovulation Alert --- Let’s you know when to sit on the sidelines (unless you’re ready to start a junior league).
Code Red Alert --- Let’s you know that it’s game time and you’re way out of bounds.
FEATURES
Fully automated menstrual calendar
5 special alerts for each phase of her cycle
Dynamic animations for each alert
Helpful suggestions to survive each phase
Links to local vendors for presents, groceries and goods (via Google Maps)
Advanced calendar toggle settings
Code Red is the brainchild of Pro Surfer and Humanitarian Jon Rose, and was facilitated through development by husband & wife team Kevin and Lisi Harrison.
Kevin & Lisi have been together for 180 menstrual cycles. The recurring stress that always followed inspired them to find a way to help alleviate their shared aggravation over the monthly houseguest.
Developed by men and women for the benefit of each other, MEDL Mobile, and it’s partners are excited to present this great app and share the many benefits it will bring.
“It’s good for everyone; It’s a giant step towards world peace.” –Lisi Harrison
We are proud to call Code Red a Shiny MEDL Object.
At Coding for Kids Camp, young coders used sequences, loops, and conditionals to navigate mazes, solve puzzles and create stories.

In England, our local area of Bournemouth & Poole has run out of phone numbers, to save the earth collapsing, we now have to dial our area code if we have to dial a local number.
If we don't, we get a reminder if we fail to dial 01202 before the local number we want, this might change after a month to a not so polite message, after six months your phone will explode, or for those on the Virgin Network, Richard will pop round to tell you off.
