Blanca to go 

98 - ¡Qué calor!

It was dark, cold and wet. A strong gust of wind was carrying rain in through a broken window. Lightening had struck the window, which exploded and sent shattered glass all over the floor and desk.

Rain was pooling on Superman’s keyboard and he felt drops seeping into his deeper electronics. Severely uncomfortable electric shocks rushed through his body. Wires leading to his CPU had short circuited, preventing any serious damage. 

In response to the short circuit, Superman’s alarm system roared like a lion. It was a built-in feature which informed the user that internal damage had been done. 

“Superman!” cried his owner, who was sitting up in his bed, frightened by the lightning strike. The young man jumped up and ran over to the shattered glass to shield his laptop from the wind and rain. In such an emergency situation, the first thing the owner did was to turn off Superman’s power. He then closed the lid and covered Superman in some clothes so he could attend to the glass and broken window. 

That’s it! I’m done for! I’m dead! Goodbye my sweet owner, my sweet 
simulations! I’ll never again simulate the movement of microwaves through 
circuits and electrical components. My life’s work, my life’s passion, gone… 
Goodbye world… 

And with those final thoughts, Superman powered down into unconsciousness

A 38-year-old from Alaska has become the fastest woman to cycle around the world.

Lael Wilcox finished her 29,000-kilometer ride in 108 days, breaking the previous record by more than two weeks.

The American, who is waiting for her record to be confirmed by Guinness World Records, started and ended her journey in Chicago.

However, to break the record, Guinness doesn't ask cyclists to actually ride all the way around the world.

They must start and end in the same place, and their whole journey — including flights — must be at least 40,000 kilometers. That's the circumference of the Earth's equator.

Cyclists must travel at least 28,970 kilometers by bicycle.

After leaving Chicago in May, Wilcox rode to New York before flying to Europe. She then cycled from Portugal in the west to the Georgian capital of Tbilisi in the east.

She flew to Perth, Australia, and cycled east to Brisbane before cycling across New Zealand and then flying to her home city of Anchorage.

She cycled down to Los Angeles, and then back across to Chicago on the famous Route 66.

Her wife, Rugile Kaladyte (pronounced "RUE-gil-ay KAL-ah-dee-tay"), is a filmmaker. She traveled with Wilcox, taking videos and posting updates on social media.

Wilcox is an experienced cyclist, but the first woman to cycle around the world had only learned to ride a bike a few days before her journey began!

In 1894, Annie Cohen Kopchovsky, a mother of three young children, left Boston and cycled around the world in 15 months — all to win a bet!
