Last week, we did a bunch of AppInventor stuff. I like these labs (if you can call them that) because they are easy to do but if you aren't careful, they won't work. I like watching how they're made and then seeing the result because it makes me feel like a super amateur computer programmer (HA - like that will ever happen). AppInventor is a nice break from Python because it isn't as hard mentally, but it still challenging to make sure I have all the parts.
Scientists are coming up with a new bug repellent:

If that actually works, it will be really cool. I have to use bug spray a lot but I hate how it smells because of all the chemicals in it. The natural bug spray would probably be a lot better for the skin as well.
