What to say when your daughter tattoos her neck …
I need some air. Atmotube is changing the way we experience air quality. The pocket-sized device is equipped with sensors that can detect 127 Volatile Organic Compounds and poisonous gases like carbon monoxide. After completing a successful Kickstarter campaign the device is gaining traction because of its benefits for parents, athletes and people suffering from health conditions. Atmotube senses the air quality every ten seconds then pairs with a smartphone app to give the most accurate and real-time information. If the quality dips below a certain level you will automatically receive a notification. Co-founder Vera Kozyr said,“Every day, we unconsciously take more than 20,000 thousand breaths and don’t even think about most of them. Unless we have a problem, we don’t think about what we’re breathing in and how the air might affect our bodies.” Atmotube is just one of several devices aimed specifically at giving everyday people the ability to monitor air quality. #PowerToThePeople.

Bernardi’s #EpicFail
Quotes can be impactful but for conservative senator Cory Bernardi it’s clear he cited his sources wrong. In a tweet to his 15,000 followers he mistakenly quoted a neo-Nazi line rather than Voltaire. The tweet goes something like this, “To know who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticize.” So who does the statement belong to? The American white nationalist Kevin Strom, also neo-Nazi and Holocaust denier. Hhmm we think a crash course in citing the Internet may be needed.

A Social Media Miracle
Holidays aren’t the only time for miracles. Social media has recently reunited a family with the silver cross medal of their ancestor. The metal was found by Collins Sawler and was missing for 35 years. The medal is specifically cherishable considering they’re only awarded to family members of fallen service heros. Sawler and his daughter looked up the name on the back of the cross on the veterans’ website then immediately turned to Facebook for help. Within hours the rightful owners heard about the news.
