    Solar Tsunami to Strike Earth

    The Sun's surface erupted early Sunday morning, shooting a wall of ionized atoms directly at Earth, scientists say. It is expected to create a geomagnetic storm and a spectacular light show -- and it could pose a threat to satellites in orbit, as well.

    The solar eruption, called a coronal mass ejection, was spotted by NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory, which captures high-definition views of the sun at a variety of wavelengths. SDO was launched in February and peers deep into the layers of the sun, investigating the mysteries of its inner workings.

    Can You Control Your Dreams?

    Techniques to control, or at least influence, our dreams have been shown to work in sleep experiments. We can strategize to dream about a particular subject, solve a problem or end a recurring nightmare. With practice we can also increase our chances of having a lucid dream, the sort of "dream within a dream" that Inception's characters regularly slip into.

    'Hikikomori' bedroom hermits should be regarded as national crisis.

    There are approximately 230,000 people who almost constantly shut themselves in their rooms except to go to nearby convenience stores, according to a survey conducted by the Cabinet Office. The number increases to about 700,000 if those who only go out to do something hobby-related are included.

    Moreover, there are an estimated 1.55 million potential so-called 'hikikomori' who have felt like shutting themselves in their own rooms. Most of them are young people.

    As the population of young people declines due to falling birthrates, the statistics have raised questions about the future of Japan.

    Archetype for iPhone.

    It's always great to see something you worked so hard on finally come to life, I dont think I can count the heated arguements we had over this little pearl. So much time trying to make something for such a small platform worth playing. I played for about 40 min tonight just to see how the rooms filled up and I was shocked at how many were actully playing. I played with the same 5 teammates for the entire duration which is a great sign. You would think they would sign off after a single game, but no. I just imagined a small asian kid or total halo geek laying on his bed with his faced pressed up to his iPhone.

    I then realized I was doing exactly that.

    I had a huge pleasure working on it and look forward to seeing how people react to it. Download Archetype.
