Is Google Making Us Stupid? by Nicholas Carr – Atlantic Monthly, July/August 2008"According to Vorgan (The Memory Bible) and Small, one of America’s leading neuroscientists, digital technology has altered the neural circuitry in human brains and triggered an evolutionary process in just one generation. The authors identify the inherent problems and challenges this poses, providing a technology toolkit filled with strategies to preserve one’s humanity and keep up with the latest technology. They make their case based on abundant research in the areas of health, psychology, pediatrics, education, business, and technology. Their exercises include developing face-to-face communication skills as well as mastering electronic games. A compelling as well as timely read, this is highly recommended for all libraries.” "iBRAIN: Surviving the Technological Alteration of the Modern Mind."
October 23, 2009: A British couple, Paul and Rachel Chandler, were kidnapped from their 38ft sailing boat off the archipelago of the Seychelles during the night. The distress signal was sent out at 22h00. Naval forces and Search & Rescue centres did not swing into full action until the story broke on 27th October and Somalis informed the media that the couple was in their hands. The yacht S/Y Lynn Rival was found the next day abandoned by naval forces off the Central Somali Coast and the two hostages had been taken first onto an earlier sea-jacked merchant ship, the MV Kota Wajar, and then onto land near CeelHuur north of Harardheere. Since then the retired Britons are kept in hiding inside Somalia and a ransom demand has been made. As of December 23, 2009 there has been an attempt to pay the ransom to the pirates, however the British Government has blocked the transaction due to their strict policy of not negotiating with pirates.March 2010: http://www.channel4.com/news/articles/world/africa/chandlers+aposmay+be+released+soonapos/3570762Paul and Rachel Chandler, the British couple kidnapped by Somali pirates last October, could be released within weeks, a Somali official has said.October 2010: still not released
