++ Hey everyone, one more week until school starts again. I'm very excited to start at UofT, I move in on the 6th I think, it really depends on my dad's availability.
++ Today was a really unusual day for us (Carlin and me), cause we got to see a military helicopter, the Sea King. Carlin's grandfather was in the military during WW2 and since he is one of the last survivors, some people from the Canadian Air Force came to congratulate and meet him. They landed the helicopter in the backyard of Carlin's aunts house in Huntsville, it was pretty amazing.
++ A few new things will soon be added on the website, Carlin's first section on the website is probably going to be a review section, where she will be recommending books and doing her own analysis of different books. We are also planning on doing movie reviews at one point. Carlin will also start putting quotes everyday on the main page which I am definitely looking forward to. Maybe on the next week or so we'll put those things online.

++ Love 'em or hate 'em, you've got to admit that spiders are some pretty impressive, well-equipped animals. They have a top-notch sensor array, a built-in construction set, a heavily armored body and a highly effective venom-injection system. How many other creatures can claim that?
++ These remarkable adaptations have made spiders some of the most successful carnivores in history. In their 400 million years of existence, they've spread over every continent and mastered nearly every environment on Earth. Today, there are about 40,000 known spider species, and potentially thousands more we haven't discovered yet. This is pretty astounding when you consider that there are only about 4,000 different species in the entire mammal kingdom.
++ In this article, we'll find out how these unique animals spin webs, attack prey and walk straight up walls. We'll also look at some particularly interesting spider species, including spiders that swim, spiders that jump from branch to branch and spiders that can kill a person.

++ Some influential cancer researchers are questioning the conventional wisdom that finding a cancer early will improve the chance of survival.
++ In a special series, CBC looks at the controversy over whether early detection in an outdated idea for some cancers, the value and potential harm of screening tests that detect disease in people who don't show any symptoms, and how researchers are using new technologies to detect cancer earlier and determine which ones are most likely to kill.

++ Iraq's soccer team moved to the semi finals of the Olympic games after winning against Australia, Portugal, Costa-Rica and only loosing to morocco. This is pretty shocking and now they are playing Paraguay to see who goes to the finals. The other game in the semi finals is going to be Italy X Argentina, two great soccer teams. Argentina being undefeated so far, without even letting any other team score on their net so far.
++ Brazil only has 3 medals till this point on the 10th day of the games. One gold and 2 Bronzes. Canada is in 15th, with one gold, three silvers and one bronze.

++Two days ago was the start of the Olympic Games in Athens. I watched the opening cerimony and it was really nice, i specially liked Bjork. I used to hate her music but for some reason after listening to it more I got to actually like some of it.
++Canada has not won medals yet, but it is still really early on the competition. So far a few surprises like the Turks who are 5th with the Ukranians in the medal standings. The US is 7th and Russia is 8th.
