In honor of Palm Sunday, here’s 5 Variants of Dives and Lazarus
The tune is listed in our hymnal as Kingsfold and tied to No Tramp of Soldiers’ Marching Feet. Great piece.

Barbara #Kingsolver's Demon Copperhad is strongly based on 'Dickens' David Copperfield. To help me understand the former, I've just re-read the latter. It's great!

W brazylijskim #SaoPaulo rozpoczal sie turniej #KingsWorldCupNations - pilka nozna halowa, ale z mocno zmodyfikowanymi zasadami, np. druzyny dysponuja specjalnymi "kartami", ktorych moga uzyc w kluczowym momencie meczu (nie wiedza co to za karty, losuja je i moga wygrac np. kare dla przeciwnika, ale tez... bonusowa karte dla niego).
W turnieju bierze udzial reprezentacja Polski w #bocca, a mecze komentuja #Izak i #saju -

I've just finished _Demon Copperhead_ by Barbara Kingsolver, and it was great. Hard work, and painful to read in parts, but a really good book.
Here is my review: https://app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/a26035a8-0fc0-4fba-aec2-c65dd4cef575

Exploring Cutting-Edge Technology at New Scientist Live
A cosmic ray detector.
A heart scanner.
And a handheld ultrasound probe that connects to a smartphone.
These were some of the fantastic hands on technology demonstrations that you could see and try out for yourself at this years New Scientist Live. Alongside this were many other interactive exhibits and really interesting and engaging people to speak to. And, as ever, there was also an outstanding program of talks and lectures by world leading scientists and speakers.
Dark Matter
First of all, lets talk dark matter. We don’t know if it exists. However, we infer its presence from many things. One example is the orbital speed of stars within galaxies. These starts are moving faster than they should be for the matter that we see present. This implies there should be something that we can’t see that is responsible for the extra gravity holding those stars in place – dark matter.
A cosmic ray (in green) detected at NS Live by the team on the Lux-Zeplin standThe Lux-Zeplin dark matter experiment is designed to look for dark matter. However, it is incredibly sensitive and needs to be shielded from all the cosmic rays that are constantly bombarding our planet and even moving through you and I right now. To illustrate their frequency, they set up a cosmic ray detector at the show. It was absolutely fascinating and was easily one of my favourite things to see this year.
Medical Technology
Moving along to medical technology, the Butterfly Network ultrasound probe is an amazing device. It replaces a huge amount of kit. This kit is typically the size of a couple of suitcases and is wheeled around a hospital on a trolley. This new handheld probe plugs into a tablet or smartphone and runs via an app. Much simpler!
Kirsten Christensen-Jeffries and Antonios Pouliopoulos from the team at Kings College London Quiin Lab showed me how it worked. We used it to spot objects in pots of dark liquid as an analogue of doing an actual ultrasound. This experience was informative and great fun.
Using the Butterfly ultrasound probe to detect a flower!The potential applications for something as mobile as this are clearly huge. The technology is so portable and can be used pretty much anywhere. This includes developing countries or remote villages where this kind of technology would typically not be available.
Moving around the corner I came across the team from Medical Mavericks. They used a small laptop connected to us by 3 stick on disposable sensors. The setup was used to take our heart rate. Again, such impressive tech in a small package using everyday available hardware is sure to be useful in areas where you can’t take huge diagnostic machines. A big shout out to the team who were super enthusiastic and great to talk to as well.
Thankfully my heartrate appeared ok on the day!
Engaging Talks Schedule
One of the highlights for me every year is the talks schedule. There were so many to go to, and as ever, I missed some due to the clashes. However, this year I paid an extra £10 to allow me to see the recordings of the ones I missed – a great facility!
If I had to pick out my two favourite talks, my first would be Tim Gregory‘s session on Nuclear. Tim discussed both previous, current and potential future use of nuclear to power space missions. Tim is a very engaging speaker who is clearly passionate and excited about what he does. That rubs off on the audience and makes his talks so easy to watch and listen to.
Tim Gregory kicking off the Saturday afternoon session with his talk on nuclear powerMy other pick would be the final talk of the first day on the Our Planet stage. Dr Gillian Forrester showed how the thermal imaging of facial blood flow can reveal whether humans (and other animals) are stressed or not. I found this absolutely fascinating as this is a phenomenon that is easily measured using simple infrared (IR) cameras that are available today. The research itself was compelling enough, but then Dr Forrester did a live demo with two volunteers from the audience. This really reinforced how usable this method could be for detecting stress using physiologically measurable markers.
Own your own piece of the Universe!
Finally, it wouldn’t be a trip to New Scientist Live if I didn’t visit Martin on the MSG Meteorites stand. This year my haul (as my daughters would refer to it) included a large unclassified meteorite found in North West Africa. It’s fantastic to hold and look at and wonder what secrets it might one day reveal. I also picked up a nice piece of Tektite, which is a natural glass formed from the heat and debris of a meteorite impact. Martin is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about his subject and his stall is packed with fascinating artefacts.
My haul… A lovely piece of Tektite and and a large NWA meteoriteThere is so much more to write and congratulations if you’ve got this far. If you’ve never been, I highly recommend it. This was our third year and every year it’s better and better. You’re in a space with thousands of other people who are curious and interested in the world around them. You listen to and talk to world-leading experts in their fields and you experiment with cutting edge technology. What could be more fun?

Roleplaying types - there's about a day or so left of the Surviving Strangehollow Kickstarter!
I heard about it from Dael Kingsmill, who is one of the contributors. It ticks all of my "weird, wild, creepy fey forest" boxes and I really like the art style of it (the watercolours of Emily Hare) so I've backed it.

Tajne kody dostępu do baz w USA wyciekły do sieci. Ktoś uczył się ich z… publicznych fiszek
Stany Zjednoczone wydają miliardy dolarów na ochronę swoich granic i zaawansowane systemy cyberbezpieczeństwa. Okazuje się jednak, że cały ten wysiłek można zniweczyć za pomocą popularnej aplikacji dla uczniów i studentów.
Tajne kody do placówek służb granicznych wyciekły, bo ktoś postanowił wkuwać je na pamięć za pomocą publicznych fiszek w serwisie Quizlet.
Serwis Quizlet to popularna platforma edukacyjna, z której na co dzień korzystają miliony uczniów przygotowujących się do sprawdzianów z historii czy słówek z języka angielskiego. Ktoś jednak uznał, że to również doskonałe narzędzie do nauki wewnętrznych procedur amerykańskiego Urzędu Celnego i Ochrony Granic (U.S. Customs and Border Protection).
Jak ujawnił serwis WIRED, w lutym na platformie pojawił się publiczny zestaw fiszek zatytułowany „USBP Review”. Zawierał on wysoce poufne informacje dotyczące bezpieczeństwa placówek CBP w okolicach Kingsville w Teksasie. Zestaw był w pełni publiczny aż do 20 marca – zniknął ledwie pół godziny po tym, jak dziennikarze WIRED skontaktowali się z numerem telefonu powiązanym z kontem twórcy.
Czego można było się dowiedzieć z cyfrowych karteczek? Na przykład na fiszce z pytaniem „Kod do drzwi punktu kontrolnego?” na odwrocie znajdowała się dokładna, czterocyfrowa kombinacja. W ten sam sposób rozpisano kody do konkretnych bram oraz wież strażniczych. Inne fiszki zawierały szczegółowe opisy wewnętrznych systemów, takich jak „E3 BEST”, służącego do sprawdzania osób i pojazdów w bazach danych organów ścigania.
Rzecznik CBP potwierdził jedynie, że incydent jest obecnie badany przez Biuro Odpowiedzialności Zawodowej. Cała sprawa zbiega się w czasie ze znacznym wzrostem zatrudnienia w amerykańskich służbach granicznych – agencja kusi nowych rekrutów premiami sięgającymi 60 tysięcy dolarów. Jak widać, szybkie tempo rekrutacji może wiązać się z pewnymi brakami w podstawowym szkoleniu z zakresu bezpieczeństwa informacji. Nauka to potęgi klucz, ale czasami lepiej trzymać swoje notatki pod kluczem.
