While Ethan Allen makes mosquito nets look romantic, living in a country where mosquito nets are purely utilitarian and totally necessary (mine was a hideous blue colour with an ugly flower pattern in the netting, and was rigged up to the ceiling with fishing line – no four poster beds to be found) will dash any romantic ideas post-haste. April 25th is World Malaria Day, and as part of the ‘Nothing But Net’ campaign to get mosquito nets to parts of Africa where malaria is a very real and very deadly problem, the UN has commissioned an easy little came called ‘Deliver the Net’: The challenge: race the sun and hand out as many insecticide-treated bed nets as you can to African families. The more nets you deliver – before the mosquitoes come out – the more lives you save. Once you’re done playing the game, sign up, confirm your email, and a life-saving bed net will be sent on your behalf!
SegaWorld’s dead, right? Don’t tell Sega! They’ve just signed a deal with Dubai-based property firm Emaar to open a whole load of “indoor theme parks” across…the Middle East and North Africa. The first, to be built in the Dubai Mall, will feature arcade cabinets, more complex/expensive simulators and a roller-coaster, and will be based heavily on Sega’s Japanese Joypolis centres. Sega CEO Hajime Satomi: Entertainment is about living dreams, it is about experiencing joy and culture. In joining with a company of Emaar’s stature and power, we hope to convey the pleasure and excitement inspired by great entertainment to people all over the world.
