New Tech monday

The FEMA app, from the Federal Emergency Management Agency, can help before, during and after a disaster. It has several important sections, beginning with its “prepare” menu. This area includes clearly written advice on how to prepare for many different kinds of natural catastrophes, including drought, earthquakes and even volcanic eruptions. It also has advice on how to assemble emergency kits to keep in the home for different types of disasters.http://www.nytimes.com/2015/05/07/technology/personaltech/video-feature-apps-to-cope-and-help-in-a-disaster.html?ref=personaltech&_r=0

Rhino horns are composed of a specific kind of keratin protein. Pembient figured out the genetic code and was then able to reproduce the horns using the keratin in a 3D-printing technique. According to the company's surveys, 45 percent of rhino horn buyers would be willing to buy the 3D printed horns, but wildlife experts are skeptical. The faux horns, they fear, will just provide a "legal smokescreen" that makes it harder to catch illegal rhino horns.http://www.popsci.com/can-3d-printed-rhino-horns-stop-poachers

The SmartWatch 3 SWR50 is a device from Sony that lets you see notifications from your smartphone — including emails, calls, texts and even GChats — right on your wrist. The smartwatch, which runs the Android Wear operating system, also responds to voice commands, so you can ask about the weather or send emails just by speaking.http://www.livescience.com/50528-sony-smartwatch-3-review.html

Ever Changing Tides by: Rachel Shaw
There,
It shimmers best there.
On the great ocean waves.
Sweetly drowning many victims
In a passionate,
Yet truly tragic way.
There it shatters them.
Their individual selves.
To be disfigured,
But then reassembled,
Into one.

There,
In the depths,
A nightingale.
Singing ever curiously,
In hushed tones.
Whispering soft nothings to the breeze.
Butterflies seem to come and go.
Never knowing their way.

Out of the jar,
Braving the allures of the sea.
How strong,
Can a little butterfly be?
When the beautiful nightingale sings,

Will parish be birthed to uncertainty?
this is my leaf kevin. he is awesome and has a best friend named lenard.

3D printers have started to be used for everything we couldn't do before XD They made a dog special legs with one. It was super cool! They also built a small house model. It has proved itself to be a super beneficial invention.
