Elysium | 2013 Neill Blomkamp, the creator of District 9 has written and directed a new film which is now in post-production and scheduled for release in August 2013. The Film stars Matt Damon and Jodie Foster, as well as Sharlto Copley who played the leading role in District 9. “In the year 2159 two classes of people exist: the very wealthy who live on a pristine man-made space station called Elysium, and the rest, who live on an overpopulated, ruined Earth.” I personally thought District 9 was an excellent film and I can’t wait to hear some more details about Elysium as the release date approaches.

With over 1.1 million people in the world who don’t have access to clean drinking water, water-borne pathogens are a huge problem for the environment and for human health. Fortunately a clever little design has come to the rescue in the form of the Lifestraw The cigar-sized plastic tool is both a feat of engineering and an inexpensive way to deliver potable water to those who need it.Lifestraw delivers the most basic needs and purifies water from potential pathogens like typhoid, cholera, dysentery and diarrhea, becoming one of the icons of humanitarian product design- by the time the water hits your lips, it’s completely safe and potable. The Lifestraw is one of the highlights of the Cooper Hewitt’s Design for the Other 90% exhibition, which highlights products, architecture, and technology that benefits under-privileged demographics across the globe. This is amazing. If there’s a program that makes these and sends them to countries where people need them, I will donate money.
