Today Is Ada Lovelace Day!
Close friends with inventor Charle Babbage, Lovelace was intrigued by his Analytical Engine and in 1842, she translated a description of it by italian mathematician Luigi Menabrea. Babbage asked her to expand the article, “as she understood [it] so well”, and this was when she wrote several early ‘computer programs’. Ada Lovelace died of cancer at 36, her potential tragically unfulfilled.
The annual Ada Lovelace Day aims to "raise the profile of women in science, technology, engineering and maths", by seeking to redress the balance by honouring the unsung heroines of science, technology, engineering and mathematics, and by providing opportunities for women to be heard, to be experts, and to tell the stories of those who have inspired them.
The inspiration for Ada Lovelace Day came from psychologist Penelope Lockwood, who carried out a study which found that women need to see female role models more than men need to see male role models. “Outstanding women can function as inspirational examples of success,” she said, “illustrating the kinds of achievements that are possible for women around them. They demonstrate that it is possible to overcome traditional gender barriers, indicating to other women that high levels of success are indeed attainable.”
Get involved and find out more by visiting the Finding Ada website and the Ada Initiative, a non-profit organization dedicated to increasing the involvement of women in the free culture and open source movements.

there's one thing Dexter loves it's science! If there's a second thing,
it's blood.

years apparently! - and looking forward to catching this when it lands in the UK on Sky 1 on October 22.

NYCC: 'The Last Of Us' prequel from Dark Horse Comics
At New York Comic Con, Dark Horse Comics and Naughty Dog have announced they'll be doing a prequel comic series based on Playstation 3 game 'The Last of Us'.
The series will focus on protagonist Ellie and her life prior to the game's events. Artwork shown at a panel during Comic Con showed Ellie as a child with a new character, another little girl named Riley, in a crumbling city landscape.
The series will be written by both Neil Druckmann and Faith Erin Hicks with Hicks illustrating as well.
After seeing the various trailers for the game, I am looking forward to the game. If the prequel comic is as good as the other Dark Horse Comics gaming spinoffs (Mass Effect, Dragon Age) then this should be something good as well.
