1. Many of my ideas or visual stimuli for the Wiki, originate from the ABC's //The Gruen Transfer// which is on Wednesday evenings at 9:00pm. From an 'Issues' perspective VCE English students will really benefit from visiting the shows website where you can download episodes of the show. So where does the show take its interesting title name from??? //The Gruen Transfer// is named after Victor Gruen, the guy who designed the very first shopping mall. The term describes that split second when the mall's intentionally confusing layout makes our eyes glaze and our jaws slacken...the moment when we forget what we came for and become impulse buyers.

2. I can't believe that this guy is auctioning off his entire life! You have to check out this link as it's a really cool eBay listing complete with video footage of the stuff he's selling. Don't forget to check out the bottom of the auction page for questions from prospective buyers, some of these questions are very interesting. [|alife4sale.com]

3. How fast are you? Take this fun test to find out! Play with your friends and find out whose the fastest. Teachers could use this game toward the end of their class and test their students.
