    1 week ago | abc.net.au | Hannah Barry

    Researchers have developed a $220 temporary face tattoo that can track if a person's brain is working too hard, and whether they should be taking a break. The University of Texas at Austin in the United States developed the e-tattoo, which decodes brainwaves to measure mental strain and tracks whether someone's brain capacity is overloading.

    Donald Trump has announced he will be accepting a $400 million gift from a Middle Eastern government in the form of a luxury aeroplane.

    1 month ago | abc.net.au | Hannah Barry

    There is a high price to pay for anyone who breaks an oath to protect the "absolute and perpetual secrecy" of the upcoming papal vote. Anyone — from priests, cooks, cleaners, drivers, guards and tradesmen — who leaks what they may see or hear at the conclave meeting faces automatic excommunication from the Catholic Church.

  • Fight for justice continues one year after Perth brothers killed in Mexico

    1 month ago | abc.net.au | Hannah Barry

    It's all too easy to disappear along Mexico's rugged west coast. The coastline in Baja California stretches for hundreds of kilometres, with resort villages, fishing towns and farms scattered in between. Its breaks, ramshackle shacks and camp spots are ripped from the cover of a surfing magazine, and each year it attracts thousands of visitors seeking both solace and adventure.

Anyone else remember doing 20 burpees and 20 jump lunges over a seven minute period, keeling over and then eating about ten (10) almonds as a "snack"? Same https://t.co/CoS4q1HbtN
