  c%`ks"c+"b!'d>"qv'iu'

  ,With the threat of climate change
always on the horizon1 cities around the
world are looking for ways to make their
public transportation greener4 ,Many
places have turned to buses that are
more fuel efficient or subways that run
on electricity4 ,The ,Byron ,Bay
,Railroad ,Company in ,New ,South
,Wales1 ,Australia1 has taken this idea
one step further4 ,They have built the
world's first fully solar-powered train1
which just went into service this
,January4
  ,The project was started over eight
years ago by the company's director1
,Jeremy ,Holmes4 ,He wanted the train to
be not only solar-powered but also
stylish and cool4
  ,Therefore1 they found an old train
from the late #aidjs and restored it to
working condition4 ,This area of
,Australia usually gets over #bjj sunny
days per year1 so they added
custom-built solar panels to the roof4
,The train has giant batteries for
storing electricity to use on cloudy
days and a diesel engine in case of an
emergency4 ,Although the train only has
enough power to run three kilometers
from the center of ,Byron ,Bay to a
nearby beach1 ,Holmes hopes that the
technology will be an example for other
cities to follow4

  ,Throughout ,Asia1 millions of people

,,KTV that is proving that bigger isn't

  ,Mini ,K,T,Vs are about the size of a

shopping malls around ,China and ,South
,Korea4 ,Users can walk in and not only
sing a song1 but also record one1 or
even a whole album4 ,At around ,,US 4#c
for #ae minutes1 the booths are an
affordable and fun way to kill some
time4 ,The best part is customers can
pay with their phones4
  ,By ,June of last year1 experts
estimated that the number of people
using mini ,K,T,Vs had reached over #aj
million in ,China alone4 ,Certain brands
of the machines1 like ,Minik1 have
already spread to #ejj cities4 ,This is
great news for people who love to sing
but might be shy about being heard by
others4 ,It also helps that they can get
a semiprofessional recording experience
for a fraction of the cost and time4
,Keep an eye out for this hot new trend

weather patterns4 ,They must also have
the technical skills to operate

  ,Many companies around the world have
been experimenting with automated stores
that serve customers without a staff of
employees4 ,These stores use
state-of-the-art hardware and software
to take the trouble out of shopping and
checking out4 ,In late ,January of
#bjah1 the ,President ,Chain ,Store
,Corporation 7,,PCSC7 joined the ranks
by opening their first unmanned store in
,Taipei1 ,Taiwan4
  ,Located at their corporate
headquarters1 this experiment has been
called the ,X-store by the ,,PCSC4 ,It
became the second unmanned #g-,Eleven in
the world after the first was opened in
,Seoul1 ,South ,Korea1 in ,May of last
year4 ,In order to serve customers more
efficiently1 the ,X-,Store has the
latest technology1 including artificial
intelligence1 facial recognition
software1 and special checkout hardware4
,They have even built a few friendly
robots to clean the store and greet
customers4 ,During the early stages of
this project1 the store was only
available to company employees and open
for #ab hours a day4 ,However1 the
company hopes to perfect their methods
and technology so that they can open
this kind of store to the general
public4
  ,Before long1 going to the convenience
store could be easier than ever4

  ,When the seventh month of the lunar
calendar rolls around1 the ghosts come
out to play4 ,That's right1 ,Ghost
,Month is coming up again4 ,It's time
for the dead to visit the living and for
the living to honor the dead4
  ,The tradition of leaving out food for
hungry ghosts during ,Ghost ,Month comes
from ,Buddhism4 ,According to legend1
,Mulian1 a follower of the religion1
asked the ,Buddha how he could stop his
mother from suffering after she became a
hungry ghost due to her greed in life4
,Mulian was told to leave a tray of food
out for monks returning from a summer
retreat in the seventh lunar month4 ,The
monks then prayed for seven generations
of the man's family1 ending her
punishment4
  ,Since then1 many traditions have
popped up around this holiday4 ,Here are
a few things to avoid during ghost
month4 ,Don't leave your clothes outside
to dry at night1 because ghosts might
occupy them4 ,Avoid swimming1 or the
ghosts might drag you underwater4 ,If
you don't want to attract evil spirits1
stop whistling at night4 ,Above all1
enjoy keeping the tradition alive1 even
if it is mostly just for the dead4

  ,As far as pizza goes1 it's one of the
most popular kinds of all time4 ,But
when you go for a slice1 do you know the
history behind your pie8 ,Get to know a
little about this fan favorite--
,Neapolitan4
  ,Neapolitan pizza gets its name from
the ,Italian city it was born in3
,Naples4 ,The ingredients are pretty
basic4 ,Take some pizza dough1 tomatoes1
mozzarella1 basil1 and olive oil1 and
you've got yourself a pie4 ,But the real
secret is in the sauce4 ,In order for a
,Neapolitan to be truly authentic1 there
should be more sauce than cheese4 ,This
means the middle can become kind of soft
and wet1 making ,Neapolitan pizzas
difficult to serve by the slice4 ,Maybe
that's why they're usually served
smaller than other pizza pies1 maxing
out at around #aj to #ab inches4
  ,Neapolitan pizzas1 like all pizzas1
owe their existence to ,European
flatbread4 ,In ,Naples1 farmers began
topping their bread with tomatoes in the
#ahth century4 ,It wasn't until #ahhi
that baker ,Raffaele ,Esposito first
made the classic ,Neapolitan style
pizza1 the ,Margherita4 ,He named it for
the queen1 and gave it the colors of the
,Italian flag1 with red tomatoes1 white
cheese1 and green basil4

  ,Mario ,Kart is one of the most
popular ,Nintendo series ever created4
,In the games1
players select their favorite ,Mario
characters and try to get the fastest
time as they speed around the racetrack
in little go-karts4 ,Recently1 tour
operators in ,Tokyo found a way to bring
the fun and excitement of the game to
the streets of ,Japan4
  ,Several tour companies began offering
special ,Mario ,Kart tours in ,Tokyo4
,Most tours last two hours and cost
around ,,NT 4#b1jjj4 ,Tourists get to
drive go-karts and wear costumes to look
just like their favorite characters from
the game4 ,The tours quickly became a
big hit with ,Nintendo fans worldwide4
,However1 driving go-karts through
,Tokyo's busy streets proved to be
dangerous4
  ,After a series of traffic accidents1
the ,Japanese government decided to take
action by passing new laws to protect
go-kart drivers4 ,Drivers are now
required to wear seatbelts and helmets
to reduce injuries4 ,Operators must also
do more to improve safety standards4
,This includes installing rear-view
mirrors in each go- kart to help drivers
see the road better and stay safe4 ,With
a bit more safety equipment1 people can
still try their hand at some real-world
,Mario ,Kart racing4

  ,The ,,US government finally admitted
that it has spent millions of dollars
trying to figure out if ,U,F,Os are real
or not4 ,For many years1 people who
believed in ,U,F,Os were ignored as
strange people who sat in their
basements wearing tinfoil hats4
,Meanwhile1 conspiracy theorists have
long claimed that the ,,US government is
hiding the truth behind these claims of
alien contact4 ,It turns out that the
,,US government has been secretly
studying these unidentified flying
objects for years4
  ,From #bjjg to #bjab1 a program called
the ,Advanced ,Aviation ,Threat
,Identification ,Program checked out any
reports of mysterious flying objects in
the sky4 ,Many pilots reported seeing
aircraft that defied the laws of physics
or moved faster than anything the ,,US
military had4 ,Because of this1 the
program was funded with tens of millions
of dollars to make sure that ,China or
,Russia did not have new technology that
the ,,US did not know about4
  ,Unfortunately for conspiracy
theorists1 the ,,US government could not
prove the existence of aliens4 ,While
some of their findings remain top
secret1 the program did not find
anything concrete1 so it was shut down
in #bjab4 ,Though the military could not
come up with the answers1 many people
believe the truth is still out there4

  ,It's often been said that the ability
to communicate is what sets humankind
apart from the animal kingdom4 ,Animals1
of course1 have their own ways of
speaking to one another4 ,However1 one
creature in particular has come closer
to a human level of communication than
any other4 ,Her name is ,Koko the
gorilla4
  ,Koko's journey began when she was
just one year old4 ,In the early #aigjs1
she was loaned from her birthplace at
the ,San ,Francisco ,Zoo to a woman
named ,Francine ,Patterson to be used in
her psychology research4 ,As part of her
project1 ,Patterson decided to teach
,Koko sign language4 ,At first1 ,Koko
was only supposed to be with ,Patterson
for four years4 ,That1 however1 would
just be the beginning4
  ,Teaching a gorilla sign language is a
slow1 difficult process4 ,Patterson and
,Koko interacted daily as the great ape
grew up4 ,During these periods1 ,Koko
had to learn how to connect certain
movements and gestures of her hands and
fingers with spoken ,English words4
,Koko slowly came to master about #a1jjj
signs and understand nearly #b1jjj
,English words4 ,This is about the same
as the speaking ability of an average
kindergarten student4

;-ey'-2"1 ,Koko

  ,In addition to learning how to
communicate like a human being1 ,Koko
also began showing other forms of
human-like behavior4 ,In #aihc1 when
asked what she wanted for ,Christmas1
,Koko said she would like to have a cat4
,She was given a stuffed animal at
first1 but that wasn't good enough4 ,In
fa ct1 she signed that the gift made her
sad because it wasn't a real cat4
  ,On her birthday the next year1 ,Koko
was finally allowed to choose her own
cat from a litter of kittens4 ,Koko
cared for the kitty that she named ,All
,Ball like it was a baby gorilla4
,Sadly1 ,All ,Ball was later hit and
killed by a car4 ,On learning ,All ,Ball
had died1 ,Patterson said ,Koko made a
sound very much like a human crying4
  ,Koko turns #dg this year1 and her
relationship with ,Patterson is as close
and strong as ever4 ,Together1 the two
of them have developed the research on
communication between species4 ,Koko's
public image has also helped to raise
awareness for environmental protection
and the protection of endangered wild
gorilla populations4 ,In a very real
way1 ,Koko has helped humans become more
humane1 one sign at a time4

  ,Amla ,Ruia is responsible for
providing water to over #cjj of ,India's
driest villages4

  ,Each year1 over #cjj million people
in ,India have problems getting enough
water4 ,Without water1 people can't grow
crops or raise animals4 ,In some cases1
people are even dying of thirst4 ,Thanks
to the hard work and contributions of
,Amla ,Ruia1 over #cjj villages in
,Rajasthan1 one of ,India's driest
regions1 have access to fresh water4
  ,Ruia is using a technique called
check dams to help these villages1 which
are often poor and have little money for
big projects4 ,Luckily1 check dams are
very easy to build4 ,Low spots in the
landscape are used1 and simple walls are
built to catch and hold more rainwater
naturally4 ,Check dams are actually a
very old technology and have been used
in the region since ancient times4
  ,Amla ,Ruia and her charity group
called ,Aakar ,Charitable ,Trust have
been working with communities to build
these dams for the past #aj years4 ,Now
that she's #ga years old1 she has taken
more of a role in the planning4 ,But
despite her age1 ,Ruia shows no sign of
slowing down4 ,She continues her mission
of helping ,India's thirsty farmers
collect and store the water they need to
survive the dry climate of ,Rajasthan4

environmental services to working at an
animal shelter4 ,Most of these just
weren't for him4 ,Finally1 a help-wanted
ad for a local hospital caught his eye4
  ,After turning in the application and
paperwork1 he was accepted4 ,When ,July
rolled around1 ,Henry entered a hospital
volunteer program and spent a lot of
time with patients in his local
hospital4 ,The more he got involved in
that project1 the better he felt about
the work he was doing4 ,After realizing
how many people in the world could use
his help1 he appreciated that he was
healthy and able to give back to people
that were less fortunate4 ,This
life-changing experience inspired him to
study harder so that he could get into

elevate the language to its highest
forms4 ,During the early parts of the
#aith century1 a group of writers known
as the ,Romantics questioned the
direction that ,Western society was
going at the time4 ,They used their
poetry and writing to focus on emotion1
nature1 and the imagination4 ,Still
regarded as one of the greatest poets of
all time1 ,Percy ,Bysshe ,Shelley died
this month in #ahbb at the age of #bi4
  ,Shelley was born into a minor noble
family in ,Horham1 ,England4 ,During his
school years1 he was often bullied and
pushed around4 ,He spent a lot of time
by himself reading and soon developed
the independent ideas that he displayed
later in life4 ,When he entered ,Oxford
,University in #ahaj1 ,Shelley was
already making a name for himself by
releasing his first novel called
,Zastrozzi4 ,His fame quickly grew1 and
he was soon hanging out with the biggest
names in literature at the time1
including ,Lord ,Byron1 ,Thomas ,Love
,Peacock1 and his second wife1 ,Mary
,Shelley4 ,Sadly1 at the height of his
career1 his sailing boat went down off
the coast of ,Sardinia1 and he died4
