Light Novels are essentially novels but are written in short paragraphs or easy to understand language such that it provides for fast reading. They are extremely popular amongst teenagers in Japan due to the ease of understanding it and reading it. Due to the fact that the story is simple enough to grasp as well, many light novels are also adapted into animes with some even being more popular than the light novel itself. With so many genres and different kinds of stories in the world of visual novels, there is an abundance of anime that derived from light novels. So join us today, as we explore the top 10 animes that were adapted from light novels!
10. No Game No Life
- Episodes: 12
- Aired: Apr 9, 2014, to Jun 25, 2014
Behind the legendary game character known as Kuuhaku, or 'Blank' is actually a pair of siblings. Sora and Shiro are NEETs who viewed the world as a lousy game. Retreating into the gaming world, they were virtually indomitable. However a strange email challenging them to a game of chess soon changes their life as they are whisked away to the land of Disboard. All disputes in this world are settled through games, something the siblings excel in, so it wasn't long before they were named rulers of the humans. Finding the resolve and determination to play games once more, the duo sets out to conquer this new world with their talents.
As if the storyline was not intriguing as it was already, this anime adaptation added a whole new dimension that made even the readers fall in love with the series once more. Firstly, the colours were splendid and vibrant. The animation style was on point with the description in the books. The references were all executed perfectly. Truly, the adaptation created a brand new experience for us, inviting us to fall in love with this series once more.

During after school one day, Koyomi happened to catch a falling Hitagi. Noting the fact that she was virtually weightless, he chased after her only to be promptly stapled in his mouth. Bizarre as it was, he was still relentless in getting to the truth of things. After all, Koyomi survived a vampire attack and was no stranger to the world of oddities. This is the story of a chance encounter and the developing relationship between of the two of them.
If anything, the Monogatari series is a very word intensive book. It has witty dialogue, warped perceptions of society, and close to no action at all. It is truly an unorthodox style of writing, unique only to one writer. Yet however, the adaptation captured the essence and intention of the writer perfectly. Conveying the same level of brilliance as that of the visual novel, you have to watch it to understand the distinction that the Monogatari series sets!
8. The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya
- Episodes: 14
- Aired: Apr 3, 2006, to Jul 3, 2006
Kyon is just an average high school student. Haruhi on the other hand, not as much. So when Haruhi invited Kyon to join the SOS Brigade, a club specialising in the supernatural, he was taken aback. With Haruhi as the acting leader of the group, the Brigade are often led into weird adventures at the whim of Haruhi. The silent days that Kyon had wished for are slowly disappearing as he embarks on one of Haruhi's weird mission again.
One thing the adaptation did well was to capture each of the scenes perfectly right down to last detail. Little was eliminated from the original light novel. Even the infamous Endless Eight was animated into 8 episodes making the viewers almost as frustrated as Kyon. In a way, this unique style was what skyrocketed the series in fame with numerous memes generated over the quirky story. This is fitting for something as unorthodox as Haruhi.
7. Yahari Ore no Seishun Love Comedy wa Machigatteiru
- Episodes: 13
- Aired: Apr 5, 2013, to Jun 28, 2013
Hachiman Hikigaya is a nihilistic high schooler whose views of the youth culture is so jaded such that he no longer gives an effort to participate. In an attempt to change him, his homeroom teacher forces him to join the volunteer club. Asides from being the only male member, he has to work with the female that is dubbed as the Ice Queen, Yukino Yukinoshita. This unlikely duo was able to produce miraculous results, however. Combining the wits of the two, the only problem lies on the clashes of their personality. Perhaps there's a greater reason as to why their homeroom teacher decided to put them together...
Yahari explores the darker side of the high school life. Eschewing the notion of the perfect high school life, it is a more philosophical narration than your average slice of life. What the adaptation did well was to present the ideas that Hachiman has and having the animation complement those ideas. It can be said that the anime is just as good as the novel. As such, this anime just simply grows on you.
- Episodes: 13
- Aired: Jul 7, 2015, to Sep 29, 2015
As the MMORPG known as Yggdrasil is slowly shutting down its servers, Momonga, one of the masters of the guild Ains Ooal Gown decides to wait until the very last moment. While originally intending for their server to log him out, he was shocked to realise that he was still in the game. What's more, the NPCs all seemed to develop a personality of their own. Taking a while before realising that he is now a part of the game, Momonga sets his sights on investigating this new world and to find out if there are others stuck in similar situations. When you are an advanced wizard with a formidable guild, however, it becomes apparent that the journey is sure to be easy as well as interesting.
Overlord is a highly descriptive novel. It is easy to understand therefore why is was such a highly adaptation. The action sequences were beautifully drawn and animated. The music was highly fitting of those sequences. Overall the series was animated by a reputable studio. Watch the series to know exactly what we are referring to when we say that animators simply brought this series to life.
5. Rokudenashi Majutsu Koushi to Akashic Records
- Episodes: 12
- Aired: Apr 4, 2017, to Jun 20, 2017
Sistine Fibel is attending one of the most renowned magic school. Her objective is to get well versed enough to solve the mystery of the mysterious Sky Castle. Her plans were seemingly cut short, however, when her teacher was replaced. Glenn Radars is a rather sloppy and unskilled teacher. His incompetency frustrates Sistine. Beyond this facade, however, lies a master of all types of magic which shocks even Sistine.
The fantasy element was retained in the adaptation. Using the potential of fantasy to elicit the imagination of the viewers, the animation allowed us to finally perceive the author's world as the author would have imagined it to be. The anime had wonderful art and excellent character development. At the same time, the story was kept simple. This allows the anime to be absorbed easily, making it an enjoyable anime to watch.
4. Re: Zero kara Hajimeru Isekai Seikatsu
- Episodes: 25
- Aired: Apr 4, 2016, to Sep 19, 2016
Whilst leaving the convenience store, Subaru Natsuki suddenly found himself in a new land. Believing his dreams of finally becoming a game character has come true, he was anything but elated to realise that he had... absolutely no skills. He was even saved by a maiden with white hair. Joining her in her quest to get back an insignia, their adventures came to an end when they were both murdered savagely. That ought to be an end to his adventure. However, Subaru found himself alive once more...
The 'isekai' trope or otherwise known as the transport to another world trope is quite frequently used in the industry. So it is a refreshing take on this trope when the author managed to engage the readers. Instead of having an insanely overpowered character, we have a character whose unique power is reliving moments in order to escape the cruelty of fate. Needless to say, the steps he takes is one of hardship and resilience. What the adaptation did well was to express the protagonist's inner struggles and frustration. That, along with its high ratings is a testament to how good the adaption is.

- Aired: Oct 2, 2008, to Mar 26, 2009
Taiga Aisaka, a diminutive girl with a feisty personality. Wielding a boken, she is known throughout the school as the Palmtop Tiger. Ryuuji Takasu, an intimidating looking person with piercing eyes. Yet however, he is a kind and gentle soul and loves cleanliness to a fault. Together, they strive to woo different people but yet realised that the only person that truly understood them was the other. Sometimes, love works in mysterious ways, but for now, the chapter between these two is just starting...
Toradora is a romance light novel. Romance is adaptable. It can be understood both visually and in written form as long the writer is skilled enough to evoke the feelings of love in us. However, the animation came as a bonus to us. The dimension of music was added, alongside movement. Character interaction became easy for us to understand and those emotions became easier to grasp. All in all, it conveyed the same level of emotion as the author had intended.
2. Kokoro Connect
- Episodes: 13
- Aired: Jul 8, 2012, to Sep 30, 2012
Realising that no other clubs fits them, five students banded together to create the Student Cultural Society. At first, it seems like a gathering of multiple students engaging in daily conversations. Curiously though, club members Aoki and Yui find themselves switching bodies for no reason one day. This is the start of a chain of mysterious events that will threaten the club, their friendship and perhaps even themselves as an individual... Join them as they unravel the mysteries while attempting to maintain their friendship as well.
It is not every day that you swap bodies with one another. While it may be easy to pen down thoughts and perception in writing, it is even harder to express it visually. Human emotions are hard to emulate in general. In the case of Kokoro Connect, however, the characters are pushed to their limits. The music, the facial expressions and the mood that the art sets all contribute to eliciting the emotional part in us, enabling us to empathise with the characters. Little needs to be said on how great this adaptation is therefore for it is no easy feat.
1. Sakurasou no Pet na Kanojo
- Episodes: 24
- Aired: Oct 9, 2012 to Mar 26, 2013
Due to his kind nature of not abandoning lost kittens, Sorata Kanda had no choice but to move into the infamous Sakura Hall of his school. Advised by his close friend Nanami to find owners for the cats so that he can move back into the regular dorms, he was all set on doing so until the appearance of Mashiro Shiina. She was an internationally recognised artist. A savant, Shiina was just as talented as she was immature. Sorata had no choice but to look after her along with the other quirky characters that reside in Sakura Hall. Hence begins the life of Sorata and the pet girl, Mashiro.
Similarly to Toradora, romance light novels can be understood in different forms. What changes it, however, is the degree of depth that an animation adds to a paper words. Even if a writer is talented to write visually, the obvious form of visual presentation will still be better. In a sense, the Toradora adaption exceeded the expectations of fans. Great art, the freedom of movement between characters and an OST that fits every scene well are the reason why the adaptation of Sakurasou was highly successful during its time.
So these are the top picks for light novels that were adapted to anime. Are you a light novel reader in general? Have you ever read a light novel in your life before? How are they compared to the anime? In fact, do you think the animes matches the expectation that the original light novels have set? Let us know in the comments below and we will see you next time!

Dutch writer Tonke Dragt published her children's book De Brief voor de Koning in 1962, winning the Dutch children's book of the year award in 1963, and even winning a major award in 2004 for the best Dutch children's book of the past 50 years. Per the book's publisher, Leopold, the book has sold more than 1 million copies worldwide and has been translated into more than a dozen languages — including English, though that edition didn't hit bookshelves until 2013.
A review in The Guardian after the book's English publication pointed out just two small supernatural elements in the story — meaning that one of the biggest differences between the book and the series is the addition of magic. There's no prophecy and no, um, whatever that glowing thing was at the end of the series.
The other major difference: The character of Lavinia is just a girl our hero Tiuri meets on his journey, not the person who would become his partner in the quest. Tiuri did have a buddy on his quest in the book, but it was actually a mountain guide named Piak. Also Queen Alianor didn't exist at all — the strong female characters were added just for the Netflix production.
One similarity: "At the end of the book, a jester tells Tiuri a story about a man who chased a rainbow: 'he realised that what mattered was not the rainbow itself but the search,'" the review points out. That's an applicable parable for the ending of the series, too (if you know, you know).
The series isn't the only adaptation of the novel. Before Netflix got a hold of the story, a Dutch film written by Maarten Lebens and Pieter Verhoeff hit theaters in 2008.
Though the book didn't get its English-language release until 2013, it's been a classic in Europe for decades. In fact, three Scandanavian stars of the show — Gijs Blom, who plays the evil Prince Viridian; Jakob Oftebro, who plays the gallant Prince Iridian; and Yorick Van Wageningen, who plays the regal King Favian — all read the book as children.
"We have more than one storyline to follow. We have so many different people and you get to follow each one and follow their journey," he said.
Added star Thaddea Graham, who plays independent young novice Iona, "We take a modern take on a classic story and the messages are still very much the same. We just try to let it resonate with a modern audience and I really think it pays off."
The biggest change was also the most important for Ruby Ashbourne Serkis, who plays Lavinia: "the writers did a really good job of bringing strong female characters into it, which is really important especially for today," she told ET. "Some of the strongest characters in the show are female and they weren't in the book."

Fundamental-mode Love- and Rayleigh-wave dispersion computations for multilayered, perfectly-elastic media were studied. The speed of these computations was improved, and the accuracy brought under full control. With sixteen decimal digits employed in these computations, fifteen significant-figure accuracy was found possible with Love waves and twelve to thirteen figure accuracy with Rayleigh waves. In order to ensure that the computed dispersion is correct to a specified accuracy, say σ significant figures, (σ + 1)/4 wavelengths of layered structure must be retained above a homogeneous half-space. To this accuracy, the homogeneous half-space is a sufficient model of the true layering it replaces. Using this result, it was possible to refine the usual layer-reduction technique so as to ensure retention of the specified accuracy while employing reduction. With this reduction technique in effect, and with σ specified below single-precision accuracy, the program can be run entirely in single precision; the specified accuracy is maintained without overflow or loss-of-precision problems being encountered during calculations.

Sewer sludge comes from human waste flushed down toilets and sinks. This water is then filtered and heated to remove any bacteria. However this process does not remove dissolved metals and chemicals that are too small to be filtered out. The fact is that some amount of toxins remain in the water.
Used to Water Crops
Sold at Whole Foods
Even stores like Whole Foods allow this practice on the produce they sell. Most people shop at stores like whole foods to eat healthier, not to expose themselves and their families to more toxins. Thankfully, they are now requiring that their suppliers do NOT use sewer sludge to grow their produce.

Aegina, Saronic Islands, Greece, c. 525 - 475 B.C.
"Greek Turtles" minted on the island of Aegina were most likely the first coins struck in Europe. They were popular in their own time and accepted for payment far from the island. Because they were the first European coin type and because they are attractive and interesting, the "Greek Turtle" is considered a "must have" by many ancient coin collectors.

The reciprocal transformation of matter and energy is a major theme of both modern physics and Jewish Mysticism. These thought-provoking parallels give us a holistic picture of ourselves as Jews participating in the greater universe.
Parallels of Mysticism and Science
The secularization of Western man's world viewed during the course of the 'scientific revolution' of the past three centuries has engendered a profound dichotomy between man's religious/mystical beliefs and his intellectual/scientific perspective. The dramatic discoveries in the physical sciences during this century have not as yet profoundly affected this aspect of modern man's basic weltanschauung. However, if one explores the philosophical ramifications of some of these discoveries, what emerges from this analysis is a scientific perception of the universe which has, to a great extent, converged on that of the traditional mystical viewpoint that is central to religious thought.
Matter-Energy Duality; Underlying Unity of Physical Reality
In classical mechanics, a basic distinction was maintained between matter and energy. The various manifestations of energy (electrical, chemical, thermal, gravitational, etc.) may be transformed into one another as may the various states of matter. However, the realms of matter and energy remain entirely disjointed -- each realm retains its own integrity and is subject to its own conservation law. This kind of duality of the physical (matter) as separate from the analogue of the spiritual (energy) is central to classical physics. In contrast, a cardinal tenet of modern physics is the complete unity of the universe. Matter and energy are just different manifestations of the same underlying physical reality. As predicted by Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity, matter can be transformed into energy and vice versa. Matter and energy are both manifestations of the Divine Will and can be freely interchanged and transformed
This synthesis is even more dramatically demonstrated by the theory of Quantum Electrodynamics. The picture which Quantum Electrodynamics portrays of the underlying ground of reality -- of the very nature of space itself -- is profoundly different from the static conception of classical theory. The universe is seen as continuously involved in transformations in which matter and energy are spontaneously created and destroyed. Matter in the form of particle -- antiparticle pairs instantaneously comes into being and disappears. Although this fundamental dialectic is not directly observable, its manifestations become apparent in such phenomena as vacuum polarization, Zitterbewegung (extremely high frequency oscillations in the expected value of the velocity), and the Lamb Shift -- phenomena which make Quantum Electrodynamics one of the most precisely verified theories in all of physics from an experimental standpoint.
This picture strikingly parallels the Torah perspective. In Jewish mysticism the ultimate dialectic of the physical universe is described as a continuous process of Ratzo and Shov The Ratzo signifies the mystical union of the finite with G‑d -- the loss of identity, sense of self and ultimately the voiding of the physical which accompanies a spontaneous plunge into the Infinite Transcendent Source of the universe. Shov signifies the return to physical reality, the coming back down into the material universe as a differentiated entity brought into being by the dictates of the Divine Will. Although the Torah perspective provides a far deeper insight into the dynamics of the process described (Divine purpose as opposed to spontaneous inexplicable fluctuations), at the phenomenological level the descriptions of this ultimate dialectic are remarkably close.
Of course, the ultimate unity of all things as manifestations of Divine Will is the central image of Jewish mysticism. Just as the potential for the infinite, the abstract, the amorphous -- the spiritual and its physical analogue -- energy emanates from Him, so also does the potential for the finite, the limited, the categorized -- the material. Thus the physical and spiritual, matter and energy, are both manifestations of the Divine Will underlying reality and hence can be freely interchanged and transformed. Here also, we have an almost exact parallel to the matter-energy duality of Special Relativity.
A further instance of duality which pervaded classical physics is the sharp differentiation made between the observing subject and the observed object. To classical mechanics, man -- the subjective observer -- can be idealized as being wholly apart form the object of his observation. His interactions with this object are incidental to the observing process. Man's internal, subjective life is disparate from the external, objective reality of the universe around him. This is in direct opposition to the Quantum Mechanical view. In this view such a duality no longer obtains. The observer (subject) and observed (object) can only be described as parts of a total all-encompassing system. The process of observation itself alters the state of the system -- the conditions of the very thing to be observed. Internal life and the external universe, man and his environment constitute one indissoluble entity. Any idealized separation, any duality so distorts the actual situation as to make the resulting system meaningless. Internal life & the external universe, man & his environment constitute one indissoluble entity
In Jewish Mystical Philosophy there is a similar profoundly holistic image of man as part of the plenum of reality. To some extent this is expressed by the microcosm-macrocosm apposition in which the universe -- the macrocosm -- is regarded as a reflection and manifestation of the archetype -- man -- while simultaneously man reflects and manifests the structure of the universe. The theory underlying this reciprocal relationship is that every aspect of the universe is a revelation of Divine creative energies. Hence at every level of the cosmogenic process there is expressed the pattern of the same primal Divine creative energies -- a "homoeomorphism" -- at the level of the individual, human society and the totality of the universe.
Outer and Inner Environment: A Reflexive Relationship
Another major way in which Jewish mysticism vitiates the artificial subject-object distinctions is in its representation of man as the one who internalizes his environment. Man cannot remain a separate, objective observer. He internalizes all external experiences to which he is exposed and incorporates them into his very being. Man's actions profoundly affect on a physical as well as metaphysical level the very nature of the world around him
When exposed to the potential for evil in the world man does not remain aloof. He assimilates part of that evil within himself, thus making his efforts to overcome his grosser nature that much more difficult. The nature of the environment within which man lives profoundly affects his perception and understanding of the world around him. On the other hand, man's actions -- the manner in which he comports himself in his world -- profoundly affect on a physical as well as metaphysical level the very nature of the world around him.
In marked contrast to most mystical systems, Jewish mysticism is profoundly action oriented. The most exalted flights of metaphysical speculation, the most sublime states of ecstatic mystical union are a valueless perversion of mans purpose if they are not coupled with a B'chein -- a constructive, practical consequence with respect to man's life and relationships in the here and now -- the material world around him. Whether it is to sensitize him in his relationships with his fellow man or to re-inspire him to higher devotion to his Creator through his actions (mitzvot) on this world, some positive behavioral modification is of crucial importance. Man, the internal subject, and his universe, the external object, must become a synthesized whole.

Bosnia War Victims Deserve Swifter Justice
Radovan Karadzic is making a mockery of efforts to strengthen courts’ ability to try and prosecute accused war criminals. Karadzic faces charges of genocide, war crimes, and crimes against humanity, all of which left 100,000 dead in the 1993-1995 war. Yet he has failed to show up when the trial started, claiming he required more time to prepare his defense. Um, he had thirteen years. Is that not enough time?
Maybe not. The court handed the former Bosnian-Serb leader nearly one million pages of court documents. That seems excessive. But they should demand he be present for the court proceedings. The notion that by forcibly dragging him into court would elicit sympathy or undermine the court’s legitimacy is nonsense. Serbian supporters of Karadzic already dispute the legitimacy of the court and consider it a show trial. The problem is that, like the trial against Slobodan Milosevic, the court comes off as feckless and weak. In its quest for being thorough and diligent, it is taking way too long to reach any verdict. The worst shame would be if Karadzic is able to kick the ball down the court indefinitely and dies in his peace in the comfort of his Dutch cell, Milosevic-style. It also would give Charles Taylor and other genocidaires in the dock a strategy to postpone justice as long as conceivably possible.
The victims of the war crimes deserve better, swifter justice.
New research links urban planning and political polarization.
- Canadian researchers find that excessive reliance on cars changes political views.
- Decades of car-centric urban planning normalized unsustainable lifestyles.
- People who prefer personal comfort elect politicians who represent such views.
Progressive America would be half as big, but twice as populated as its conservative twin.
- America's two political tribes have consolidated into 'red' and 'blue' nations, with seemingly irreconcilable differences.
- Perhaps the best way to stop the infighting is to go for a divorce and give the two nations a country each
- Based on the UN's partition plan for Israel/Palestine, this proposal provides territorial contiguity and sea access to both 'red' and 'blue' America

• Interviews with patients and two resource persons were used to determine primary psychiatric diagnoses in 577 consecutive men entering an alcohol treatment program (ATP) at a veterans hospital. Twelve months later, about 95% of the sample were successfully followed up with a patient and resource person Interview to establish the clinical course over the year for the four most populous diagnostic subgroups. At intake into the treatment program, the 432 group 1 primary alcoholic men were older, had a later age at onset of alcoholism, demonstrated a lower intensity of drinking, had fewer antisocial problems, and used fewer categories of drugs than the 60 men in group 2 with primary drug abuse and the 40 men in group 3 with primary antisocial personality disorder. During the follow-up, men in groups 2 and 3 had a greater likelihood of drug use, more police and social problems, and demonstrated higher (more adverse) outcomes on a clinical outcome scale. The nine group 4 men with primary affective disorder at intake demonstrated an increased risk for past suicide attempts and psychiatric care and had a higher rate of affective disorder in first-degree family members. These findings underscore the importance of distinguishing between symptoms (eg, sadness or antisocial problems) and diagnoses and the need to establish primary and secondary labels in substance abusers.

The U.S. company Hyperloop is planning to construct a “new Silk Road” passing through Russia, the Reuters news agency reported Tuesday.
Hyperloop co-founder and executive chairman Shervin Pishevar said in a press release that the road would be used to delivering cargo from Europe to China.
Pishevar attended the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum last week to sign a cooperation deal with Moscow authorities and the Summa Group, a company which invests in infrastructure projects. Moscow officials are planning to use Hyperloop technology to build new transport links between the city’s airports, and the capital’s center and rapidly expanding suburbs.
"Hyperloop can improve life dramatically for the 16 million people in the greater Moscow area, cutting their commute to a fraction of what it is today," Pishevar said in a press release.
The Hyperloop system - a project based on the ideas of tech billionaire Elon Musk – is designed to propel futuristic carriages carrying passengers or cargo on cushions of air. The trains would work in a system of airless tunnels, potentially reaching at speeds of up to 1,200 kilometers per hour. Tests began in the United States in May.
The Vedomosti newspaper reported last month that Russia’s state railway company had set up a working group to study the possibility of using Hyperloop technology.
Transport Minister Maxim Sokolov also announced that Russia was developing its own version of the Hyperloop system, the RBC news website reported.

NPR Journal Covers by IBWorlds
IBWORLDS of http://www.ibuildworlds.com/ just extended the use of Blender NPR to some very elegant looking journal covers.
These covers were designed for a collection of policy pieces written by university students and which present “an inspiring exemplar of our generation’s unique propensity to engage with and accept the responsibility of today’s complex and interconnected challenges.” The series features six journals covering topics in Energy and Environment, Health Care, Defense and Diplomacy, Education, Equal Justice, and Economic Development.
Cover designs were inspired by the featured article in each journal and created using Blender. For example, the Energy and Environment cover represents the challenges of climate change and the green technologies that can help societies to overcome them, while the Health Care cover illustrates the idea that while there is a lot of biomedical research being completed, much of the hard data is released quite slowly, a trend that needs to change.

Attempted Murder is the seventh book in the Molly Tinker Mystery Series. The series was written for the Poodle Club of America Rescue Foundation. All profits from the sale of the books go directly to rescue dogs.
Molly and her two poodles bring another killer to justice. She’s an official cop now, so she has to play by the rules, and Molly is good at it. A sniper is shooting at motorists, and in a matter of days,
she makes an arrest. Of course, Molly gets shot at, and her VW Bug gets riddled with bullets. But that’s nothing compared to what happens to her husband, the police chief. He’s in a rehabilitation hospital for a couple of weeks with a broken leg, courtesy of the shooter, watching hour after hour of old television shows and eating tasteless food.
The book is light and humorous summer reading.


The Internet of Things (IoT) is an umbrella term for billions of Internet-connected devices that share data with each other. Thanks to this data-sharing network, IoT will become a driving force in creating more efficient communication across many aspects of our lives, including transportation, energy, manufacturing, city infrastructure, identification, and healthcare.
That world is fast becoming a reality. According to Gartner, the sensors and connectivity that will drive this future will be found in an estimated 26 billion objects by next year. Furthermore, the McKinsey Global Institute reports that IoT will have an economic impact of between $4 trillion to $11 trillion in the global economy by 2025.
Distributed Ledger Technology Will Drive The Future of IoT
A significant enabler of this emerging world is distributed ledger technology, often referred to as DLT, which is a database of records that enables decentralized consensus. DLTs will enable new economies to emerge among machines by providing the protocol for them to…

I held a dessert party as part of my fundraising efforts for Team in Training and I’m calling it a success (I raised around $200 for the evening.) I have a ton of desserts leftover, but there is a school picnic Tuesday night and ceramics class Tuesday night, so I think I’ll be able to get rid of the sweets pretty quickly.
City Bakery donated a peanut butter chocolate torte that was the most coveted dessert of the entire party. I have to give major props to them for outshining my baking skills (and for donating the dessert.) It was pretty fabulous.
Pictures from the evening…..

Ahhhhhhh, the lazy days of summer. I am not even kidding when I tell you the only reason I got out of my recliner yesterday was to go pee or make food. Those kinds of days are a rarity for me, so I took full advantage and sat on my happy ass ALL DAY LONG. I finally decided to uproot myself around 9pm and I headed into the studio to work on this weeks project.
In the vein of being lazy, this project was all about keeping it simple! I used a limited pallet as well as limited supplies. I only used what I had within arm’s reach (which in MY studio is literally EVERYTHING, but for the sake of this post, lets just pretend I have more space M’kay?) which was acrylic paint, ink and prismacolor art sticks.
I gessoed the record, painted the vinyl area with the acrylic paint and inks and then I drew and shaded my girls face with the art sticks. I used a small pieces of a book page for her dress and finished the piece off with an oil pastel and some Twinkling H2o’s.
I think she is super cute and I love the peaceful expression on her face. This piece is now available for sale, so email me at firstname.lastname@example.org if interested.
We are going out of town next week, so I am setting myself a challenge for Thrift Shop Thursday and Mixed MEdieology Monday – Find something that I can alter ‘on the road’ and use limited supplies to create the entire piece! Tune in next week to see what I find and how it turns out 😀
I found THE coolest thing at the thrift store today!!! I am soooooo excited to alter this thing and share it with you on Monday. I have already been working on it for about four hours and iz have only just begun. This is gonna be a GOOD one!!!!
This weeks video is a bit different and a bit longer than usual. I explain why in the video, so I won’t go into it here LOL. I also explain why there is no Mixed MEdieology Monday project this week.
This has been an extremely difficult week for me. I was sick all week with a sinus/inner ear thing which I still have not recovered from, my birthday came and went and I was too sick to really enjoy it AND I had ONE OF the worst video editing experiences to date. I think the editing nightmare was compounded by my being sick, but it bothered me so much, I even contemplated not doing videos anymore. Like, at all. Yeah, it was THAT bad.
But enough of that! I am ready to just move on from this week and begin anew with next weeks project!
31 Days of Halloween – Day 17
Today’s post was inspired by a picture I saw on Facebook. The picture was of a girl walking down the street with a drawstring bag hanging from her wrist. The bag looked as if it was carrying a severed head because there was a face protruding from the inside out. As soon as I saw it, I KNEW I had to make one!
You can watch the video walk through below.
The outside of the bag is burlap and the lining is green cotton. I created my pattern and sewed the outer bag and lining bag separately.
I added more prominent features to a paper mache’ mask that I had by adding paperclay to the lips, cheeks and nose.
I inserted the face in between the outer bag and liner and glued it into place. I stitched the top of the bag and added champagne colored ribbon for the drawstring.
I have to admit I am thrilled with how it turned out and I LOVE the looks I get when I carry it around. It is a full size purse and since I sewed it on the sewing machine, it is extremely sturdy.
If you are interested in purchasing a head in a bag, please leave me a comment and I will get in touch with you.
See you tomorrow!!!!!!
Have you ever created something and when it was finished you couldn’t believe *YOU* were the person that created it? It just seems to go above and beyond what you thought your abilities were???
Have you ever done that?
This painting has been one of those experiences for me. It’s like I can sense a subtle shift in my creative prowess. There is new understanding of my materials. There is more depth. There is growth. I am extremely proud of this piece and I feel like I am coming into my own as an artist.
Not only is this my Amazing Mold Putty® Design Team post, it is also my Sakura Design Team Submission piece. That’s right, I am applying for the Sakura Design Team and because the two companies products work so well together, I figured I would use one to showcase the other.
You can view both full video tutorials below. I used a TON of techniques and products on this painting so grab a cuppa, prop your feet up and snuggle in for this in depth tutorial.
The first thing I did was create my molds. My son collects fossils and he has a real starfish and a real seahorse in his collection, which I borrowed for this project. I decided to make two separate (half) molds for each item instead of fully encasing them because I needed my cast items to be able to face either direction and also have a flat bottom. I made a mold of both sides of the seahorse and two molds of each side of the starfish, because they are small.
Once my molds were set I used a small paint brush to paint the inside of the starfish molds with Terri Sproul’s Mixers – bronze. The mixers are mica powder and have a lot of shimmer! Next, I filled the molds with 3D Crystal Lacquer. Make sure, if you are using molds with small spaces, to spread the mold open a bit so your Lacquer can get down into all of the crevices.
While my starfish were drying, I worked on the seahorse. I mixed Alumilite dyes – blue, yellow and white to create the colors I wanted for my seahorse. I mixed the colors on a pallet then added 3D Crystal Lacquer to the dye and mixed it until there were no streaks. I then filled my seahorse mold with two different colors of dyed Crystal Lacquer. I made sure create one small streak of blended color in the middle so it looked more cohesive. I let my Crystal Lacquer molds set overnight, giving them a full 24 hours to dry. 3D Crystal Lacquer doesn’t stick to Amazing Mold Putty, so once my items were set I was able to pop them right out of the molds with no problem! Items cast with 3D Crystal Lacquer will remain flexible even after they are completely dry, which will allow you to bend and shape them as needed.
Next I began working on the background of my painting. I painted an 11 X 14 canvas with turquoise and ultramarine acrylic paint. While the paint was still wet I added some drops of water then blotted it with a paper towel.
The next layer was drippage of Pearlescent Ink – silver moss, followed by some sponging of acrylic craft paint – mango, but only on the bottom 1/3 of the painting. I then applied white acrylic paint using large bubble wrap over the entire background.
Once I had the first layers of my background down, I started incorporating my mermaid. I had a sweet, little, mermaid-esque face already drawn in my sketchbook, so I tore her out and applied her to the canvas using matte medium. I sketched the outline of her tail and body using graphite, and then I painted in her flesh tone with acrylic paint – titan buff, and shadows with Neocolor II watercolor crayons. For her tail I mixed mango and red metallic craft paint with iridescent medium to get the color I wanted. Her hair was a darker mixture of the mango and metallic red, and then I added straight mango and white for highlights.
I needed to incorporate my mermaid into the background more, so I added some strips of sheet music stained with distress inks – peeled paint and broken china. I then painted over the sheet music with a wash of white acrylic and water.
I used a glitter gel pen – orange, to draw lines and scales on her tail and body. I worked in sections and while the ink was still wet I sprinkled on embossing powder – carnelian. I embossed the powder using my heat gun which also gave me some amazing bubbly texture where it super heated the paint!
It was FINALLY time to add my 3D Crystal Lacquer seahorse and starfish! I rubbed just the ridges of each item with a bit of Sennelier oil pastel – iridescent red gold, to give them a bit more shimmer, then I glued them in place using more Crystal Lacquer.
I applied more white acrylic paint using punchanella to the background just to blend things together a little more.
I then printed out my text “Hold a true friend with both your hands,” tore the words out, stained them with Distress Ink – tea dye, peeled paint and broken china, then I inked the edges using faded jeans. I attached the words using matte medium then added little bubbles and a few highlights using gel pen – blue glitter and white.
For the finishing touches I glued on some real seashells using 3D Crystal Lacquer and then I glued on mica flakes using matte medium. The mica flakes are one of my FAVORITE bits!!!
The very last thing I did was add a few spritzes of homemade glimmer mist all over the painting.
My glimmer mist recipe – mix gum Arabic, Terri Sproul Mixers – blue pearl, and two drops of golden fluid acrylic – phthalo blue (red shade,) in a mini mister, fill the mister with water and SHAKE.
And there you have it! My AMAZING Mold Putty/Sakura mermaid painting. I am so very proud of this piece and I hope you enjoyed it as well.

We’re a little less than a month away now from the US debut of Samsung’s first foldable phone hitting the market here, which will arrive at a time when the idea of a bendable form factor has spread like wildfire throughout the global smartphone industry. At this point, it’s pretty much a question of who’s not lining up to experiment with a foldable model, thanks to everything from the introduction of Huawei’s Mate X to the forthcoming Motorola RAZR, foldable prototypes that have emerged from companies like Oppo and Xiaomi as well as LG’s foldable that’s also coming later this year.
Samsung, meanwhile, has arguably been among the most aggressive with its experimentation in this regard, having patented what appears to be the most varied lineup of foldable phone models — with yet a new design just added to the list.
One of Samsung’s most recently revealed designs depicts a smartphone that unfolds to the size of a tablet, with a screen on the inside and outside. The South Korea-based tech giant has also just patented another, one that resembles the recently unveiled Xiaomi foldable design of a display that is foldable on two sides around the main body.
The approved patent, which was spotted by Dutch tech news blog LetsGoDigital, shows a phone with a large flexible display. Unfold the two sides, and you now have a tablet-sized device. Fold the two sides back, and you have a display that covers the entirety of the device.
There’s no indication of when or if Samsung will ever move forward officially with this design. However, among the things that stand out from the patent documentation is the seeming lack of connections for things like a charger. Samsung tends to be detailed with patent drawings, so there’s speculation that this design could support wireless charging. This also doesn’t seem to be a model that a cover would easily work for, a reminder that scratches are going to be even more of a consideration and danger to foldable mobile devices than they currently are for smartphones.
LetsGoDigital notes that his appears to be an advanced design model, no doubt an outgrowth of Samsung’s already-stated intention to release a new foldable smartphone annually. Similar to the release cycle for its premium smartphones like the Galaxy S devices.

Without explaining how, iFixYouri says it came into possession of a complete iPhone 4 shell with its glass face in tact, but minus its internal componentry. It then performed several drop tests of the device from 3 and a half feet above ground, which shattered the glass panel on the third attempt, as can be seen below.
The firm did not disclose the surface onto which the unit was dropped, nor did it perform any investigation into whether the device was more susceptible to damage sans its internal components and the added density and structural resistance they may provide.
Nevertheless, the firm is using the experiment to generate attention and challenge Apple's stated claim that the iPhone 4's all-new design and build quality are "like no other mobile device." The iPhone maker said earlier this week that the device's aluminosilcate glass front and back are "chemically strengthened to be 30 times harder than plastic, more scratch resistant and more durable than ever."
iFixYouri contends that while the glass may be 30 times stronger than plastic and able to withstand bending, its durability still falls short on sudden impact, which is "what causes 95% of glass shattering. Not because you bent the glass in your pocket, not because you dropped it and it bent, but really because of sudden impact."
The firm also argues that the iPhone 4 sports a design flaw that "will bite [Apple] in the future." Is says that in the new device, the glass sits on top of the unit's aluminum frame, where on previous models it was recessed and protected by a chrome bezel.
While iFixYouri's one-off test should be considered anything but conclusive, Apple similarly appears to be veering on the side of caution with its announcement that it will sell its very first set of iPhone protectors alongside the iPhone 4, dubbed Bumpers.
To be made available in 6 colors for $29.99 a piece, the accessories don't obscure the front or back of the handset, but instead wrap its edges in a shock-absorbing, rubberized material.
"With metal buttons for volume and power, two-tone colors, and a combination of rubber and molded plastic, Bumpers add a touch of style to any iPhone 4," Apple says. Several third-parties are also racing to market with similar protective casing designs which are likely to fetch a bit less than Apple's first-party offerings.

"Now there was a famine in the land.."
Okay, so there is a famine in the land, and as such Isaac uproots his people and they go live among the Philistines in Gerar. At this point, we can assume that Isaac was thinking of heading down to Egypt like his father before him, however Jehovah does not want this and he lets Isaac know in no uncertain terms. Of course, Jehovah does not only tell Isaac not to go to Egypt, but he also reiterates his covenant with Abraham. As Isaac is the rightful heir to Abraham's title, it is obvious that he should be gifted Abraham's gifts. Okay, it does not make sense, but it does establish the gifting of privilege and property to the eldest son.
"Then Jehovah appeared to him and said: “Do not go down to Egypt. Dwell in the land that I designate to you. Reside as a foreigner in this land, and I will continue with you and bless you because to you and to your offspring I will give all these lands, and I will carry out the oath that I swore to your father Abraham.......on
account of the fact that Abraham listened to my voice and continued to
keep my requirements, my commands, my statutes, and my laws.”"
Amazingly, Jehovah is able to guarantee the giving of a settled country to a single man, but he is not able to sort out a simple famine.....anyone else see a minor problem here?
Now while Isaac is living among the Philistines, he decides to follow his fathers brilliant example and lies to the people about his wife Rebekah.
"When the men of the place kept asking about his wife, he would say: “She is my sister.”
He was afraid to say, “She is my wife,” for he said, “The men of the
place might kill me because of Re·bekʹah,” for she was beautiful in
So, as with his father Isaac deems it necessary to lie when a God has promised him bountiful blessings, it is almost as if he does not believe Jehovah will protect and bless him. Oh, and thats disregarding the fact that Rebekah is his wife who surely he should want to protect if we are to believe the Christians who claim family values. Perhaps Isaacs lack of conviction is what makes Jehovah love him so much. Unfortunately for Isaac, and fortunately for Rebekah, Abimelech the king of the Philistines in Gerar finds out that Isaac has been lying. But instead of throwing him out of the area where he so graciously took Isaac and his people in, he commands his people not to touch her or they will get the death penalty.
"But A·bimʹe·lech continued: “What have you done to us? One of the people could easily have lain down with your wife, and you would have brought guilt upon us!” Then A·bimʹe·lech commanded all the people, saying: “Anybody touching this man and his wife will surely be put to death!”"
After this time Jehovah starts blessing Isaac immensely and Isaac becomes the wealthiest and mightiest person in the area. The poor king that had Isaacs back needless to saygets nothing. Needless to say this new found wealth does not sit well with the Philistines, and so they move to get Isaac ejected from the area.
The Philistines subvert Isaac by filling up the wells he is using, which were dug by his fathers slaves. Then, Abimelech goes to Isaac and tells him that he must leave as he has become to strong.
"A·bimʹe·lech then said to Isaac: “Move from our neighborhood, for you have grown far stronger than we are.”"
What the Philistines did was very wrong, but then what Isaac does next is just as bad. Simply put Isaac does not leave Gerar as requested.
"So Isaac moved from there and encamped in the valley of Geʹrar and began dwelling there."
So, we have a good Christian role-model yet again not obeying requests. Needless to say apologists try get around this refusal by Isaac by saying he moved but not very far. However, this is rubbish, as Isaac re-digs the wells that the Philistines filled in which Abraham had "dug" long ago, see Genesis 21, as such it is impossible for him to have moved.
Isaac again dug the wells that had been dug in the days of his father
Abraham but that the Phi·lisʹtines had stopped up after Abraham’s death,"
Needless to say the Philistines start complaining and arguing that these wells are theirs, and so we embark on a journey of well naming.

|Groups bring learning experts to TCI for youth consultations|
|Thursday, 27 January 2011 11:39|
Thanks to support from the Sands Resort and the Rotary Club, the One World Foundation sponsored a visit from two learning difficulties experts who have been holding consultations at the Cheshire Hall Medical Centre on Providenciales.
Speech therapist Debbie Venditti and occupational therapist Dr Claire Richardson have spent two weeks working with youngsters suffering a range of disabilities including autism, cerebral palsy, epilepsy, learning difficulties and Down syndrome.
And the self-funding trip, supported by Sands Resort and Rotary Clubs in TCI and New York, has been hailed a “huge success” by InterHealth Canada consultant pediatrician Dr Helen Leonard.
“The One World Foundation is a fantastic charity that, among many other things, offer support for disabled children all over the world,” she said. “It has a group of experts who volunteer their services and we have been really fortunate to have Debbie and Claire with us.”
Hearing from experts in their fields, both parents and children have benefited hugely from their experience and skills, Leonard said.
“These sort of services have been limited in the TCI, and we see this as the start of better things to come,” she said. “InterHealth Canada is working closely with the Ministry of Health to further develop these services and to ensure long term progression and sustainability.”
Toronto-based Venditti said she has been encouraged by the positive attitude of parents.
“It’s been a really fulfilling trip,” she explained, “and I have been very impressed by the facilities here at the Cheshire Hall Medical Centre.” She added that she was impressed by the way parents and guardians have embraced the activities and exercises demonstrated and with their determination to continue to work with their children at home.
One youngster who has benefited from the visit is two-year-old Tania Alutten.
“This has been a wonderful opportunity for Tennia to work with two leading specialists and she has made great progress,” said Tania’s mum Lathia. “Their methods and ways are really inspiring and can see the difference it’s making.”
Meanwhile, Richardson, who practices in New York, revealed that she and Venditti hope to return to the TCI in the near future.
“We have seen youngsters come from all over the country, and that shows that both the need and commitment is there. What’s important now is that the work we have started continues.
“I know both Dr. Leonard and the government are working hard to improve facilities and services for disabled children, and we would be delighted to return to help again in the future.”

A VCE student became a class hero yesterday when he donned his fire helmet to put out a school bus blaze.
Monbulk College student Brodie Leticq was on his way home from a math exam when the bus’s engine caught fire travelling through Olinda.
The 17-year-old CFA volunteer helped avert tragedy when he took charge, helping up to 40 students from the bus before it went up in flames.
When volunteer firefighters from Olinda and Monbulk arrived at Monbulk-Olinda Rd minutes later, Brodie suited up and joined in on the action.
Brodie, who joined the Sassafras junior squad when he was 11, said six years of training just kicked in.
“You sort of find yourself in a different body. As it unfolded, I just sort of knew what to do, moved people away as quickly as possible,” Brodie said.
He said it was a matter of minutes before flames licked the roof of the bus, after noticing smoke at the back of the vehicle about 3.30pm.
“We were all sitting round, smoke just started rising up so a few people started screaming. We just made sure we stopped the bus and I just made sure everyone got off.
“As we got off there was a sort-of bang and that’s when the flames started to show and eventually the flames ended up out the top of the bus,” he said.
Classmate Jayden Faull described Brodie’s heroic actions as “awesome”.
“The back of the bus, all of a sudden smoke was coming up and we all jumped off,” he said.
On seeing his mate leap into action, he said: “It was awesome.”
Brodie was one step closer to his dream of being a career firefighter after manning the pump in putting out the inferno yesterday.
With a health exam this afternoon and two more in the coming days, he said yesterday’s events didn’t serve as too much of a distraction.
“I think ill be fine, if you don’t know it by now then you probably wouldn’t do that well anyway,” he said.

Georgia tax revenue dips in November
A drop in sales tax revenue helped contribute to a 0.7 percent decline in total tax revenue in Georgia in November, the Georgia Department of Revenue reported Friday.
The state took in $1.35 billion in revenue in November, including $435.1 million in sales tax revenue (down 3.6 percent), $701.5 million in individual income tax revenue (up 3.3 percent) and $9.6 million corporate income tax deficit.
The state explained the sales tax drop: “While gross sales tax collections improved $15.75 million, or 2 percent, compared to last year, the distribution to local governments totaled $378.5 million, which was an increase of nearly $32 million or, 9.2 percent, compared to last year’s distribution. With refunds essentially flat, the large distribution variance offset the growth in gross collections.”
Year-to-date in fiscal 2013, the state’s tax revenue was up 3.7 percent to $6.96 billion.

2013 was the year of the Justin Timberlake takeover. After seven years, Timberlake finally released new music and took back his place as one of pop’s biggest artists. So why was The 20/20 Experience not nominated for Album of the Year at the 2014 Grammys?
Beginning in January, he released the lead single, “Suit & Tie,” off the two-part album The 20/20 Experience. Part One was released in March and it sold over 900,000 copies in its first week, giving him his best debut for his career. The two-part album went on to become the best selling albums of 2013.
In September, he released Part Two to complete the album experience. The problem with the second half of the album is that his lead single, “Take Back the Night” was not as strong as his other singles, giving it less airplay and fewer sales. Not to mention that the somewhat darker sound on Part Two was a little confusing, as it did not go with Part One.
The Recording Academy considered both halves of The 20/20 Experience as one album, so that might be a reason as to why the album was overlooked. It was, however, nominated for Best Pop Vocal Album. Considering how much attention, work and time went into the making of the LP, it does not do justice for not being considered for the top honor of the night.
Though the second half of 20/20 was subpar, the album as a whole exceeded expectations. Luckily for Timberlake, he is still nominated for seven awards, including two for Jay-Z’s song “Holy Grail.”

Report: Mark Turgeon might be looking for way out of Maryland
Mark Turgeon has been the head coach at Maryland for a decade now, but a recent report suggests he might be looking for a way out of College Park.
Jason “Lurch” Bishop cited a source during Tuesday’s The Sports Junkies on 106.7FM The Fan in Washington D.C., that Turgeon might be looking for an exit plan from Maryland. However, he’d be looking to land a major job somewhere in the Midwest if he leaves the Terrapins.
“Someone close to the program said (Turgeon) has been looking for power-five jobs back in the Midwest,” Bishop said. “That he is looking to get back home. He’s from Topeka, Kansas. He was sniffing around the Wichita State job after they let go of Marshall, but Wichita State hired the assistant for a five-year deal. That’s just a rumor. All rumors. But the guy told me Turge might be fed up with the pace of DC, get back home, slow it down a little bit.”
Turgeon, who took over at Maryland in 2011, led the Terrapins to a 17-14 record this season and reached the second round of the NCAA Tournament. In his 10 seasons, the Terps are 221-113 with a 105-79 record in the B1G. Maryland has won one B1G title and has reached March Madness five times in seven seasons.
Maryland would’ve undoubtedly been in during the 2019-20 season had the tournament not been canceled.
Over the course of his coaching career, Turgeon has had stops at Jacksonville State (1998-2000), Wichita State (2000-07) and Texas A&M (2007-11). His teams have appeared in 10 NCAA Tournaments and four NITs.
