Life of Pi (PG)
Time Out rating:
Time Out says
Tue Dec 11 2012
Yann Martel's 2001 novel 'Life of Pi' divided readers: some found its wide-eyed spirituality and magic-realist invention intoxicating, while others choked on its pantheistic platitudes and winsome authorial voice. Against all the odds, Ang Lee's epic 3D adaptation might just unite the two camps: fans will lap up the film's dedication to capturing the spirit of Martel's words, while doubters may well find themselves – slowly, grudgingly – persuaded by the film's astonishing visual confidence and narrative force.
Three actors (notably teenager Suraj Sharma) play Pi, the middle-class lad from Pondicherry whose adolescent explorations of faith are interrupted when the container ship he's travelling on goes down in the Pacific. Everyone on board is drowned, except for Pi and four denizens of his father's zoo, among them a ferocious Bengal tiger named Richard Parker. The question is how long boy and tiger can coexist, miles from land and fresh water, and with precious little hope of rescue.
A word of warning for the traditionalists: 'Life of Pi' is a film steeped in CGI, and there are very few shots here without some kind of process element. But this isn't some sort of sickly, soupy digital phantasmagoria: Lee handles the special effects and especially the 3D with absolute surety, creating moments of jaw-dropping, eye-ravishing beauty. 'Finding Neverland' writer David Magee's script isn't quite so successful: mostly he manages to avoid both syrupy sentiment and hazy magical thinking, but a late diversion onto an island randomly populated by meerkats feels jarringly out of place, while some of the voiceover is a little heavy-handed.
But it all comes together in a blunt but forceful finale, as the scales fall from our eyes and all our doubts are cleverly addressed. It's here that Lee stamps his claim on Martel's work most forcefully, and all that rampant visual excess comes into sharp focus. For Lee, this isn't just a story about God, life, death and our place in the world – it's about cinema too and how, in the modern age, it's inextricably interlinked with everything we feel and experience. It's a remarkable moment in a remarkable film: flawed, yes, but marvellously ambitious, and unforgettably gorgeous to look at.

Spiritual Will
Had Its Will
Richard Parker,
He's the lineman.
Hey I need you.
You're somethin'
Rock the boat,
A little patrol of safety
From the most dangerous thing of all,
What keep me on my toes
Till the morning come.
Put 'im beside your bed.
You grow strength that way.
Never a release from the tiger.
I'm not lyin'.
Among other things
You show it rules to obey
It will learn them.
Boy mustn't get too carried away.
The moment of mastery has arrived.
A friendship now it knows you.
Take him to salt.
He's your challenger no more.
It's your moment past him.
Something bigger,
Bigger than life even,
Is your next movie.
Can't a cheetah do it,
Make on earth reveal God.
Richard Parker,
Thank you Richard Parker.
I must've been asleep.
This symbolism gown,
This gonna cost yah.
You make them wear veils
What you'd reach for wrong.
I skipped a generation,
Let it come in for school.
After a good many trials and tribulations
I reached my way North.
Now what did Life of Pi
Have to teach us?
You know,
I wanna tell you somethin'.
You thought you just winked right out of there.
For oneness to occur
How many miles of road
With their temple
That's-Not-All-the-People-Can-Discover –
The comic consciousness.

This movie starts slow. The shipwreck scene at sea is only somewhat believable, if you allow yourself to be distracted by the CGI, but it drags, and the references to religion are just a mish-mash of ancient superstition that don't mesh well with the supposed story being told. In the end we learn there is possibly another story that is the "truth", and which is preferred? Well I liked neither. And neither story was "true" since all was fiction to begin with.
"Life of Pi" felt like a story that wanted to go somewhere but didn't know how to, like the author was Pi and trying to figure out how to write a story for the first time, hoping that the proposed alternate story at the end would give the time spent on the rest of the tale some sort of validity, which it didn't. It reminds me of a joke I heard a few years back, one of those jokes where I wondered why I wasted my time listening to it, and I will repeat it here, giving it a Life-of-Pi ending:
One day, Juan is out trimming his hedges. His neighbor looks over and says, "Juan, you're a great guy. You don't beat your wife, abuse your kids, or kick your dog. You should run for Mayor!"
So Juan runs for Mayor. People see what a great guy he is, and they elect him.
After his term is over, Juan is back out to his hedges. His neighbor looks over again. "Juan, you're a great guy. You don't beat your wife, abuse your kids, or kick your dog. You should run for Senator!"
So Juan runs for Senator. People see what a great guy he is, and they elect him.
After his term is over, Juan is back out to his hedges. His neighbor looks over again. "Juan, you're a great guy. You don't beat your wife, abuse your kids, or kick your dog. You should run for President!"
So Juan runs for President. People see he's a great guy- doesn't beat his wife, abuse his kids, or kick his dog. So they elect him. However, as Juan is sitting in the Oval Office one day, a shady man in a black coat walks in and says, "Juan, you're a great guy. But you need to start screwing up- beat your wife, abuse your kids, and start kicking your dog. Or I'll kill you." So Juan begins to beat his wife, abuse his kids, and kick his dog. After a while of this, Juan's old neighbor comes in.
"Juan, what are your doing? You used to be a great guy- now your family is gone and your dog has run away! You need to fix things up, or I'll kill you!"
So Juan is freaking out, but he decides to go out with honor. He patches things up with his wife and kids, and he gets a new dog. The next day, the shady man comes into his office and shoots Juan with a golf gun.
- What's a golf gun? -
I don't know, but it sure made a hole in Juan.
- That was a stupid joke -
Which do you like better, the stupid joke or "Life of Pi?"
- The stupid joke -
So it is with God.

Alan Fri Feb 1Rated as: 4/5 -
I'm very much in two minds about this movie. I found the book rather precious and pretentious, but worse, rather draggy. The film, of course only takes a couple of hours to tell the same tale, and the time passes enjoyably enough. Some of the 3D is good but a few sequences eg the flying fish, were naff and out of sync with the rest. I don't know if I'm the only one, but certain objects had some ghosting, thereby losing the spell. In the end, though, the whole pretext of the movie left me unconvinced, not because I normally don't accept "spiritual" explanations, but because the bathetic conclusion was far less profound than the author and screenwriter seem to think it is. As for Obama claiming that the story is an elegant proof of the existence of god, surely the key words at the end of the movie would leave that in some doubt.

Pi by Ivette Fred-Rivera
The Taiwan-born director Ang Lee works on a version of Yann Martel's award-winning novel with the same title, adapted by the American writer David Magee. Pi is Pi Patel, as a teenager played by Suraj Sharma and as an adult by Irrfan Khan.
The beginning of the movie The Life of Pi sets partially the premises of the narration: a pond, animals, birds, humans, interacting serenely in a natural setting. A mural displayed at the background, a very common element in the Indian landscape, reiterates this atmosphere. Indian landscape is one of the first things that capture our eyes, strikingly exuberant, shrubbery, trees, flowers, animals, green everywhere. On the left of the screen, we can see an image of god Ganesha, son of Hindu gods Shiva and Parvati, whose head is that of an elephant, showing the divine nature that animals can have in the Hindu pantheon. According to the very well known Shiva-Purâna, Parvati, Shiva's wife, was disturbed once by her husband who entered the house, even though she was taking her bath. The goddess felt annoyed, because she didn't have any personal servant to guard her door. So, she rub her body skin and, with the perfumed unguents obtained, she molded the shape of a glorious young boy. She granted him life and named him Ganesha, ordering that he should be on guard in front of her house. When the child intended to impede the great god Shiva to enter the house, he enraged. In the battle, Ganesha got his head cut off. Parvati was inconsolable by Ganesha's loss. Unable to find the child head, Shiva grafted an elephant head on the dead body and gave him life again. Then he recognized Ganesha as his elder son. Ganesha is very loved, he is the god that removes all obstacles. The beginning of the movie seem to contrast with Herzog's conception of nature as fearsome and terrible. But we still have not seen or imagined the storms that are to come. Pi will need all the help he can gather from Ganesha to survive.
The adult Pi narrates his story to an inquisitive author (Rafe Spall) who travels to India in search of stories to write as Western culture is exhausted from itself. As a teen, Pi and his family travelled by steamer from India to Canada, where his father hoped to restart his business as a zookeeper, and brought his zoo animals with him. Pi reminds his parents, and us, that Columbus was looking for India. A storm wrecks the ship, and finally Pi ends himself all alone on a lifeboat with an adult Bengal tiger. They spent together 227 days at sea across the Pacific before being rescued.
"I was prepared for the first day of classes. I'm Pi", he explains about his school life in Pondicherry. Boys and girls are separated at classrooms. Pi is an irrational number. Never settles into a permanent repeating pattern, as the teenager Pi. Indian newspapers publish student's high scores on national academic tests as a way of expressing national pride.
Religion was the only contact between Pi's mother and her culture. "I knew Krishna first", explains Pi. Krishna contains the entire universe in his mouth. 'Animals have souls. I have seen them in their eyes', Pi says to his father. "Animals do not think. The tiger is not your friend. You are projecting your eyes on him ", the rationalist father responds emphatically. We have to be careful. Tigers are called 'big cats' but are not pets. Richard Parker is a digitally created Bengal tiger, though looks amazingly real. Who does not want this tiger in the garden?
The Bengal tiger has been classified as an endangered species since 2010. They inhabit in tropical and subtropical forests. It is the national animal of both India and Bangladesh, immensely beautiful. It has the colors we most associate with India, yellow to light orange, with stripes ranging from dark brown to black, and a white belly, showing the different skin shades of its people. The protagonist is the tiger. His first appearance is phenomenal.
Indians are very resilient people. Pi wants to know what happens, whatever it is. "Thank you for giving me my life�, he says during the storm. Watching in another previous scene the beautiful innocence in the eyes of Pi and Anandi –which I have seen so many times all over India– reminded me that the Delhi gang rape victim watched this movie just before being raped. She fought desperately for her life, but, very sadly, could not survive as Pi did.
'We have to let things go, but the worst is not being able to say goodbye. Appa was right. The tiger was not my friend. He did not look back to say goodbye.� But, Pi, remember, Richard Parker was in captivity from the very start. It was his time to be free.
The Japanese bureaucrats, who came to the hospital after Pi's rescue to ask him about the ship wreckage, did not like Pi's story, found it unbelievable, how the tiger did not eat him? It did not explain also why the ship sank, the technical reason involved. Pi invents a flat story and then asks them: 'Which story do you believe: the fictional or the true one?' Pi asks, in turn, the writer: 'The one with no animals, no island, no carnivore islands? In both stories, my family dies, I suffer. Which one do you prefer? So it is the same with God', Pi affirms. 'It's an amazing story. The story has a happy ending', answers the writer. 'It depends on you, The story is up to you now', says Pi.
I do not like the end. It should have ended when the tiger disappears on the island. This is a fatal error, it weakens the narrative. Although the idea of choosing between the stories illustrates the belief issue, it could have been presented more creatively. Pi equates believing in the story with the tiger with believing in god. The alternate story is so boring that no one will like it. So we become believers trivially.
Work on India is very hard. We, non-Indians, run the risk of being superficial, either demonizing or idealizing it. The cultural imaginary conceives India as the land of spirituality and magic realism. India is the last place to find god since it is the last place on earth that he will abandon. The majority of Indians are very good people. No other way is possible for us to see them. A very good Bengali friend in Kolkata once told me: "We are not that good, you see us better than we are�. "Through our gaze you may see your better self�, I insinuated.
I am surprised this movie has 11 Oscar nominations. This is excessive. Animal lovers should see it! Excellent visual effects, the tiger, the storms, and the music. In this respect, Philip French has expressed it marvellously: "The movie does for water and the sea what did Lawrence of Arabia for sand and desert."Ivette Fred-Rivera Mon Jan 14 -
This film suprised me, and not just because I haven't gotten around to reading the book (yet!).
The story itself is an amazing one, with twists in all the right places, a dose of sadness in the plot but triumph too. You really feel for Pi thanks to the way the story is told and the direction in the film.
The social effects are brilliant too - very convincing as you will quite honestly think it's all real.
My only tip would be to make sure you keep listening and concentrate at the end section. It's quite important but really ties the whole story together; if you don't get it, you might not get that nice feeling of all the loose ends coming together as I did.Paula Thu Jan 10Rated as: 5/5

July 24, 2012 Mozambique 2011 © Brendan Bannon WASHINGTON, DC JULY 24, 2012—A first-of-its-kind study released today at the International AIDS Conference by Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) maps progress across 23 countries on HIV treatment strategies, tools, and policies needed to increase treatment scale-up. The results show that governments have made improvements to get better antiretroviral treatment (ART) to more people, but implementation of innovative community-based strategies is lagging in some countries. The study, a collaboration with UNAIDS, looks at 25 indicators in each country, ranging from coverage of ART and prevention of mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT), to whether nurses instead of doctors can start patients on HIV and TB treatment—critical to relieving the burden on health systems and to getting treatment further into communities—and how many health facilities in each country offer ART.

For immediate release (5/24/12)
Contact: Matt Ehlers, 919-250-4314
RALEIGH, N.C. -- As rural North Carolina continues to wrestle with a changing economic landscape, its communities have a new set of tools to tackle those challenges: 28 graduates of the N.C. Rural Economic Development Center's leadership program.
The Rural Economic Development Institute is an intensive, three-month training program designed for rural leaders. REDI provides techniques to improve participants' leadership skills while imparting proven strategies to help put those new skills into action. This year's class included town administrators, community volunteers, extension agents and the president of a community college.
More than 800 rural leaders have graduated from REDI since the program began in 1989.

REDI participants and their guests gathered May 18 at the Rural Center to celebrate the training's conclusion with a commencement ceremony. Rural Center President Billy Ray Hall impressed upon the graduates that REDI does not end with the final formal workshop. He encouraged them to keep in contact with one another to share their challenges and successes.
"The relationships that developed in here will be your relationships," he said. "When you pick up that phone, there will always be someone on the other end of the line."
Rural Center board member and REDI graduate Andy Anderson delivered the keynote address. He acknowledged that rural parts of the state face tremendous obstacles in their journeys toward economic success, but he encouraged the audience not to dwell on the negatives.
"People talk about what rural North Carolina is not, what is does not have," Anderson said. "I take issue with that."
Instead, he implored the graduates to work diligently in tackling local problems and to become agents of change in their communities.
"You have the future in your hands," he told them.

Two designers talk about why they make robots, and how they plan to give their machines social skills.
Two designers talk about why they make robots, and how they plan to give their machines social skills.
This week on Spark: We find out all about Angelina, the AI program that designs simple video games from scratch. Also, how to make robots more lovable, how a Roomba can work in harmony with your cat, and whether humans are tempted to destroy robots if given the chance. More robot fever, on Spark!
Michael Cook is a PhD student at Imperial College, and he's fascinated by video games. He's also fascinated by artificial intelligence, and he's fascinated by creativity. And so, he's found the perfect research – exploring whether Angelina, an artificial intelligence program he's created, can design video games from scratch.
We know that human beings attach emotions to robots. We tend to think of them as anthropomorphic, even if we know they're not alive. Young designer Julia Ringler wanted to know if humans would actually hurt robots, given the chance and how humans would feel about doing it. She engineered an experiment to find out.
As we move towards a future with robots and smart devices everywhere, the focus is usually on designing these objects to be as smart as people. But what if we created them instead to be as smart as a puppies? That's a design philosophy Matt Jones embraces. He's a principal at a design company called BERG and he wondered if it was possible to develop user interfaces to be well, a little more loveable. He calls his design theory "Be as smart as a puppy" (or BASAAP) – instead of designing for "artificial intelligence" we should emphasize "artificial empathy".
Carlos Asmat is a young Montreal engineer with an idea for a social networking service: a social network for robots. As we get more and more 'smart' objects in our environment – from sensors to Roomba robots – what would happen if you could connect those objects so they can share updates and data?
Fresh from signing a £1m deal with Gollancz, the science fiction author Alastair Reynolds has penned a story for the Guardian which follows a new recruit sent out to battle in an interstellar war.
Nineteen years after his first short story appeared, and nine years after the first of his eight novels was published, Scales is Reynolds' first foray into militaristic SF. In it, he explores the transformations war imposes on soldiers as his hero Nico's mission evolves into something stranger than he could have possibly imagined.
Reynolds is best-known for his mastery of space opera – the SF sub-genre in which the stakes are high and the aliens deadly – but, after 16 years working for the European Space Agency, he brings a scientist's rigour to the genre's high drama.
Dr. Robot, I presume? Your appendix may be removed by motor-driven, scalpel-wielding mechanical hands one day. Robots are debuting in the medical field… as well as on battlefields. And they're increasingly making important decisions – on their own. But can we teach robots right from wrong? Find out why the onslaught of silicon intelligence has prompted a new field of robo-ethics.
Plus, robo-geologists: NASA's vision for autonomous robots in space.

Logitech UE rolls out new wave of headphones and wireless speakers
Logitech purchased the Ultimate Ears headphone line way back in 2008. Since then, slowly but surely, the UE logo has been creeping in as the upscale Logitech audio brand -- witness the UE AirPlay speaker from earlier this year.
As of today, the Logitech UE branding officially goes large with the introduction of seven new audio products. Among the new models are two mobile Bluetooth speakers, three new headphones with memory foam cushions, a noise-isolating in-earphone with four-armature speakers in each earpiece, and the next evolution of the Squeezebox Radio powered by Logitech UE's new mobile companion app.… Read more

TUCSON - Countless kids are still suffering more than a month after Hurricane Sandy.
Homes are destroyed and debris is still littering the streets.
One of Kristi's Kids heard about this and is stepping-up to help. A Tucson child who is Paying it Forward.
Kira Ellis's dad, Scott, is a firefighter with Golder Ranch Fire District. He was in New York last September honoring the victims of 9-11.
Just a few weeks after he returned, another disaster struck.
"When Hurricane Sandy hit, I was pretty much glued to the screen because I made a lot of friends out there," says Scott.
Seven-year-old Kira also watched.
"She was asking a lot of questions and I didn't want to sugar coat it. I wanted her to understand what was going on. People's houses were destroyed. They had nowhere to live anymore.
Kira wondered about the kids. What happened to their favorite toys?
Most of the toys, gone forever, most likely and Kira didn't like that answer.
"She talked with her mommy about it and talked with me about it and wanted to donate a bunch of her toys."
Wow! This kid has a lot of heart.
"We saw all the damage and we also talked about doing the drive," says Kira.
That's how Kira Kares was launched. They set up a facebook page, set out collection boxes. But instead of focusing on toys, they decided on something more portable.
"Gift cards would be a lot easier to ship," Kira explains.
Kira's team counted-up the credit then shipped it out in time for Christmas.
Firefighters, in New York, made sure they got to the kids who need it the most.
The perk of Paying it Forward says Kira?
"Well there's one fun part and that's helping kids in need."
Kira Kares isn't going anywhere since there will be birthdays to celebrate and back to school needs.

These are just jokes. I hope every one have a smile after this. Have a nice weekend.
Though i have used both, i decided to stick with an oval shape since im fairly a beginner and wanted to improve my shots, to be more accurate in my hits, as advised by some of you guys...
i am clearly the only prince racket user...quadraform shape...y frame.
i have an M+XL and its the best thing ive ever used...the others just dont feel right...has a tremendously large sweet spot and you get stupid amounts of power from nothing...i tried iso n hated it...loved wilson oval rackets...im odd...lol
ISO bigger sweet spot. Never really used an oval for long.
i perfer iso coz of the larger sweet point.
I am a big fan of the ISO system, I still have a Carbonex Clasic in my bag as a back up but my last 3 racquets have been ISOs (a pair of Yonex MPs (broken) and my current Ashaway), OK so I may get a little more power out of an exceptional shot with the Carbonex but I have more than enough with a normal shot with an ISO.

I've used both...and I like both. They tend to have their own charm. I started badminton with a Victor Storm 30, which is the ovallest racket ever...the sweet spot is small, the strings and grip it came with were rather poor, it was expensive for an mid-entry level racket...but luckily it was a very light 3U and the frame itself was built like a tank. Aside from the paint, the rest of the racket was immune to crashes, mishits, throws, etc...
Course this has nothing to do with head shape. Hitting a sweet spot on an oval is like christmas though...and it feels good.
Lately I've only been using Isometrics though, simply because I'm getting the most value out of them for my money in my opinion. My netplay has benefited especially from Isos, since the slightly wider frame allows just enough room to tap the shuttle over the net stabily.
Has anyone ever used some of the upper tier Victor rackets? I use a Super Ti-15 Long, (I think its retired now) and the frame is as long as an oval and as wide as an isometric! Although it's officially listed as an Iso frame, I compared it with my Woven-8 and it's definitely longer.
Lost of string tension = cost !!
Hi Guys,
I think we can relate the experience of using badminton ISO frame with the 'oversize' type tennis rackets, I used to play some tennis and initially I chose 'oversize' rackets(mostly Prince) so that I do not mis hit the ball so much, but over time when I can play better tennis, I would prefer a regular size frame, I feel I am in more control, I think is the 'feel' at the impact that helps me to learn at each stroke that I just made and it helps me to improve on the next stroke, over time it helps me to play a more consistent shots, and this is very important in tennis, you can see that top tennis players would still hit a simple shot down the net.
Ofcourse application to badminton in this matter is some what different, my personal history is as below :-
Oval(Cab8dx) -> Oval(Erra) -> ISO(MP55) -> Oval(Cab21SP) -> Oval(Airblade Tour) -> ISO(MP55) -> Oval(Airblade Tour-current)
Personally I have below to consider(some what in sequence by importance) :-
-Smashing power
-Lost of tension
on consistency, I find that I do not have limitation on Oval(smaller sweetspot) since I am quite consistent on my shots because I play atleast twice a week. And having the long history of using oval racket really helps me on hitting the right spot consistently. Also I think if I really do miss-hit the shot off the center, both rackets would still not producing a good shot for me during the game and it would not be much difference in a competition since both rackets would produce a bad shot and open up opportunity for the opponent, I dont think a slightly wider sweet spot would come to rescue in that situation.
For smashing power, it is not really a fair comparison here since MP55 really does not have the power that the Airblade Tour can generate when you really whack it, I think it is due to the stiffness and weight of the Airblade Tour(man this racket is heavy)
as for the feel, strange, both my Cab21SP and Airblade Tour is way better than the MP55, why is it so ? The Cab21SP is the most fun racket to use in my personal oppinion because it simply produce the best 'feel', it is very easy to hit an overhead and gauge how far the bird would travel, I doubt if many ISO can do that, and if they do I think they must be very expensive to own one.
as for fast flick and jab I think ISO would be more handy cause this is the time when I miss-hit the most due to the fast pace of the shots.
LOST OF TENSION !! Dont you guys think that this is in fact very important for normal players if they dont plan to replace their string once a month ? Okay let me share my story, I had the Airblade Tour at 24.5lbs(BG-66 yellow), played for 3 weeks, then at this time I am bored, so I re-string the MP55 with 25lbs(BG-66 blue), play with MP55 and left the Airblade Tour un-touched, then after 2 weeks, the MP55 is now feeling like a 22lbs !! WHY ? when I compare it with the Airblade Tour which is still having the old string, the Airblade Tour is definitely having higher tension than the MP55 now !!
I felt the lost of tension at play so I test it by hitting the string with my palm and listen to the pitch it produce from both rackets, together with the experience during the game, they must have about 1.5 to 2.5 difference now(rough estimation).
I put tension at the lowest position because I dont mind re-stringing the racket often, but I doubt so for other players, so combining all this with tension reason(cost), I will definitely go for Oval.
i prefer ISOval, lol joking but i think there are pros and cons for both

View more posts for Smart phones
Smartphones can do so many things today and combine multiple consumer electronic devices into a single slim, pocket-friendly device. With all these devices can do theres no reason to leave them at home. Before heading out on a trip here are some easy ways to make the most of the phone while away and help avoid bill shock when you get home.
1. Globe-Trotting Phones: Whenever traveling out of the country find out if your phone will work where you intend on going before you leave. There are some GSM-only phones that will work in multiple places around the world, but not everywhere. Depending on where youre going will dictate if a GSM phone-only will work. If not youll need a world phone. There are quite a few world phones available such as the Motorola Photon 4G and the DROID 3 by Motorola. These are true world phones because they work on both CDMA and GSM networks. That means its bound to work with cell phone networks around the world. To find out if you have a true globetrotting handset check the phones specs. Under networks youre looking for it to say CDMA and GSM. If the specs are confusing call your carrier theyll tell you if the phone will work outside of the US.
2. Vacation Rentals: If it turns out the phone you have wont work where youre going and youll need a phone its easy enough to get one before you go. Renting phones used to be a bit of a cumbersome process. Thats not the case anymore. Simply call your existing carrier before you leave and they can set you up with a compatible phone and plan. While you're at it ask them if there's anything that can be done to lower the plan for the phone you're leaving at home while you're away.
3. Data Basics: These days people text, e-mail, and surf the web on a smartphone far more than they talk. Doing these activities over a WiFi network isnt using data. However, when there is no WiFi connection this is done over a data network. The phone youre using is smart so its constantly running connectivity features in the background and its main task is to ping the mail server to check for any incoming mail. This requires data. If youre roaming out of the country all that connectivity is going to add up to one hefty bill.
Heres a tip: To only use WiFi while out of the country go into phone settings. Select connectivity and deactivate mobile networks. This will ensure that there is no data being used in the background.
4. Plan Ahead: If you do indeed have a phone that will work out of the country contact your carrier before you leave. Youll need to change some of the features of your plan to avoid bill shock when you return. Even if you have unlimited texting with your existing plan youll need to activate International texting. Its true texts sent and receive will cost more, but in the long run it will be a lot cheaper than if you dont activate such a plan. Plus, it will ensure that texting will work out of the country.
5. Memory Maker: As mentioned earlier smartphones are more than just phones, they are video players, portable music players, and high-end digital cameras. So why not take advantage of all those features while on the road. If your smartphone doesnt have at least 8GB of memory either on board or on a microSD card then invest in at least an 8GB microSD card. Be sure to get a higher class (6 or higher) since these cards tend to be faster and work well in other electronic devices.
Here are a few ways to make the most of phone storage while away:

With Mothers Day on its way it was lovely to spend some time with my mam recently as she visited me at Extinct Design HQ! We spent time comparing shiny threads and ribbons and off cuts of material, we talked about various sewing projects I had started and techniques and workshops my mum had recently attended… Then, we made a plan. We made some coffee. The the ipod tunes and stories flowing over us in the background and through my bunged up nose, fluey eyed state we managed to finish off some items and get started on some rather gorgeous Mexican looking hearts – possibly to adorn a headband or even to be made into brooches!
Made from my mothers embroidered, layered fabric she had made herself and my stash of ribbons and pom-pom string – a true collaboration!
