Ardunio

Yadda yadda buy some ads already - so as
tradition dictates the slot is taken with
something we've recently bought on Amazon. The
Arduino is a circuit board you can download
code into and then make it do things. Mainly
we've used it with a small speaker, ripped out
of a kids' toy, and a handful of variable
resistors to make a chiptune arpeggiator. They
cost bugger all (under £15) and are a damn site
easier to get your head round than fiddling
with logic chips. The code is simply "if then"
kind of stuff, rather than having to measure
resistor values and getting really confused.
Nice hobby, if you're a bit geeky.

: WHAT B3TA PEOPLE HAVE BEEN MAKING THIS WEEK

>> match.com - Meet Jeff <<
"Those match.com adverts suck," claims woahbot.
"They don't portray online 'dating' like they
should — so we've taken matters into our own
hands and made our own." The camera just loves
ad star Log.
http://www.b3ta.com/links/match_com_Meet_Jeff

>> Very Specific Facebook Graph Searches <<
Web ubernaut Tom Scott has been playing around
with Facebook's new Graph Search. The results
can be narrowed down to a slightly alarming
degree. Companies that employ people who like
"Racism", anyone?
http://actualfacebookgraphsearches.tumblr.com/

>> Bored Stiff <<
"A disgusting little animation called Bored
Stiff," explains Man in a Cat scribe Ian
Ravenscroft. Ugh. Never go to hospital.
http://www.b3ta.com/links/Bored_Stiff

>> Cheesy 50s brain-melt <<
"This is all made from an old piece of film
footage about the wonders of capitalism or
something," scribbles Cyriak. Watch it HD if
you can.
http://bit.ly/Ys7QnT

>> Obama's Cassetteboy inauguration <<
Barack Obama's way with words takes a new
dimension, with the help of Cassetteboy. "We
spent most of last night cutting up Obama's
Inaugural Address. Here's what we pasted back
together."
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fK6nH5ZG4q8

-------------------------------------------------

: QUESTION OF THE WEEK
Sorry

Last week we asked you to write letters of
apology to those you have wronged. We still
can't work out the confession of murder on
their daughter's wedding day:
http://b3ta.com/questions/sorry/

* MARKER - "While working as the sales manager
of (probably) the last CDR manufacturer in the
UK, times were tough. We took on a few extra
jobs to pay the bills, one of which was packing
U2 CDs, inserts and promo stickers into jewel
cases before boxing them up for distribution.
The whole factory got involved, but not being
very good at mindless tedium, I amused myself
autographing one or two discs. Nothing fancy,
just things like "Enjoy! Bono," and "All the
best, Bono." So, I would like to humbly apologise
to any excited, little U2 fans (particularly if
they are big, scary, violent, baseball-bat-wielding
little U2 fans) who thought they had got their
hands on something unique, personal and special,
especially if they showed them off to their
U2-loving friends, and especially especially if
their friends were slightly skeptical about the
idea of Bono standing in the CD production line
with a magic marker, and extracted the piss by
the gallon. Sorry."
(blyerkit)

* LETTER - "At primary school I had an odd teacher
who, if you did something wrong, would make you
write a letter of apology to him. If it was
really bad, you'd have to write several. I was
new and didn't really understand the point when
I did something wrong and was told to write five
letters of apology. Not understanding, I wrote
"S O R R Y" He went batshit while I stood there
wondering what the fuck was going on. "But you
said five letters! There are five letters!"
(inflateable)

* PROMOTER - "Kate. I feel I must explain. I was
supposed to be meeting a promoter I had never met
before, in the pub before the gig when you arrived
early. I guess the reason I said what I said was
your short hair, small breasts and gender neutral
clothing. I guess I can't be held completely
responsible but I am sorry that the band all burst
out with laughter and caused you to run out of the
pub when I innocently asked you if you were Geoff
and you replied, "No I'm Kate". They were laughing
at me, not you, I promise."
(PhillieJoe)

>> This Week - SELF IMPORTANT <<
Tell us tales of jumped-up officials, the mad,
old bloke who runs the Neighbourhood Watch like
it's a military operation, Colonel Blimps,
pompous bastards and people stuck up their
own arse.
http://b3ta.com/questions/selfimportant/

-------------------------------------------------

: SITES IN BRIEF
Stuff we like that wasn't made by our mates

>> Weird and bizarre hotel reviews. <<
Nicely done, Tumblr; saving you the effort of
digging through the text, just finding the
nugget of funny and fucking off.
http://tripadvisaargh.tumblr.com/

>> Retro web pr0n <<
The first porn image on a computer screen was
in A. 1980? B. 1990 or C. 1970? Bzzzt, wrong.
It was 1956.
http://bit.ly/XC1YST

>> Vine - video loop sharing app <<
This is the week that Twitter launches Vine, a
long-form photo experiment that gives you 6
seconds of video in a loop. Fun to make deffo,
but haven't made up our minds how fun it is to
watch other people's yet. Basically, animated
gifs with sound - You're The Man Now Dog &
Flickr will be a bit peeved if this takes off.
Here's our quick go, giving you a guide to the
cups of our kitchen. Install the app to your
phone if you fancy a play.
http://vine.co/v/b5t9qhrZgZm

>> Porno-postboxes <<
Remember the 'Planning Notices in Brighton'
bloke? Well, he's called Phil Lucas and is an
occasional stand-up comedian, and most recently
has been sticking rude signs to postboxes. Read
them here, before he's arrested on a jumped-up
terrorism charge.
http://bit.ly/VbLd0p

>> Darkest confessions of anonymous creatives <<
We've got a friend who's the creative director
of an ad agency - do you know his secret?
Colour blind. Doesn't dare tell the clients.
http://www.thecreativeconfessional.com/

>> M&S padded man pants <<
Yep, now you can pretend you have a large cock,
rather than the embarrassing smoothness between
your legs that means you've never been with a
lady. Am I right boys? How the fuck this is
right for cosiest of brands M&S isn't for us to
guess.
http://bit.ly/ne8b81

-------------------------------------------------

: VIDEO SCHMIDEO
Like an unlooping Vine

>> How to play dirty at Scrabble <<
Five minutes on how to improve your Scrabble
game and make your friends utterly hate you.
The trick? Be defensive, cut off the board from
the other player and make up words. Tsk.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s1aq6sJEuVU&t=52s

>> Javascript is the new Rock'n'Roll <<
We recently met a gentleman by the name of
Circuit Ben (name changed by deedpoll!) who
makes synths and music circuits for a living.
He recommended we watch a 30-minute-long video
about how to code music in Javascript. This
might not be funny ha ha for everyone, but we
found it fascinating. Love the whole code =
music stuff going on. Overtone is incredible
too, but javascript is easier to pick up and
play, as it's already there in your browser.
http://bit.ly/NlLH5X

>> Teabag Mousepad <<
Frankly frightening video where a child's voice
is overdubbed by some big geezer. Wonder if
there's any instant weirdness doing the idea
the other way round?
http://www.b3ta.com/links/Teabag_Mousepad:2

>> Ice Cream Van vs Prince Harry <<
In one of the most obvious bullshit set-up
scenes ever filmed, pretend hardman Prince "I
bagged a Johnny Foreigner, what ho!" Harry
pulls out of a TV interview to do Army
maneuvers. Nicely mocked with a little bit of
music here.
http://www.b3ta.com/links/Ice_Cream_Van

>> Mehdi makes a rail gun <<
You didn't think the world needed a Tommy
Cooper of electronics demonstration videos but
you were wrong. Second time we've featured
Mehdi. Go him!
http://bit.ly/Y3sq9Y

: FOLLOW FRIDAY
Trek in the City

Spun-off from the fact that Kim Cattrall, the
actor who played cougar Samantha in Sex in the
City, also had a part in Star Trek VI, the
tweets combine sci-fi babble with stuff about
shoes.

: B3TA IMAGE CHALLENGE
Results from the Gay Robots Challenge

Last week we wanted you to celebrate the
wonderful world of gay robots. Actually, we
didn't because we were worried it would all
turn out a bit homophobic - but it was voted
for and we were stuck with it.

Your favourites included:

* QUIT: like Brokeback Mountain, but
with pixel stetsons (Lumpbucket)
http://www.b3ta.com/board/10913249

* SPACE: rare glimpse of heuristically
programmed algorithmic goatse (drbroon)
http://www.b3ta.com/board/10912098

* PLUG: unconventional socket for
homoerotic household (Moon Girl
Technologies)
http://www.b3ta.com/board/10911493

All these images, and the highest as voted by
you can be found here:
http://www.b3ta.com/challenge/gay-robots/

>> New challenge: Sausages II <<
This week's challenge revisits familiar yet
fertile territory: sausages. Celebrate their
power and meaty magnificence through the gift
of Photoshop. Sausages.
http://www.b3ta.com/challenge/son-of-sausages/

-------------------------------------------------

: WHAT HAPPENED NEXT?
Follow-ups on previous stories.

* HOW THE 'MAJOR KEY VERSION OF MINOR KEY
SONGS' HACK WORKS - spoiler in two words
"Celemony Melodyne" - which isn't the name of
a 14 year old Serge Gainsbourg tried to bugger.
http://bit.ly/XCIBch

-------------------------------------------------

: STAR IN NEXT WEEK'S ISSUE

Make something cool and tell us about it. If
you are in it then people will see your stuff.

Things we'd really like to see include

* TWITTER BOTS TO CURE TWITTER ADDICTION - Can
someone write a twitter bot that we can follow
that posts every hour, "Hey, you're on twitter
a lot. Haven't you got work to do?" Thanks.

* MORE EFFECTIVE PHONE SCREENING - Phones
should automatically google any incoming number
you don't recognise. We want to be pre-warned
before picking up.

* PENIS SWAPS - Swapping the key noun in an
aphorism with "penis" improves them: beating a
dead penis; wake up & smell the penis; bad
workman blames his penis. No idea where we're
going with this. Oh, absence makes the penis
grow harder.

THANKS:

by Tyronne, quigonjim, Fork, Figmaus,
combatcameraman, zacherynuk.
Image challenge by Fraser Lewry.
Mike Trinder is QOTW bloke.

-------------------------------------------------

TOP TIP:
When eating fruit pastilles, as soon as you
find your favourite flavour is next, stop eating
from that end of the packet. Open the other end
and eat from that side instead. That way your
last fruit pastille will be your favourite and
you won't be left with lime-flavoured
disappointment. (Draconacticus)

AND FINALLY - tonynibbles has written an
'advice slip' site that reads like the kind of
stuff we might occasionally stick in as a top
tip. So here you go:

==================================

Today's Featured Humor : -) - Top 10 Strangest Pageants in the World

Here is some good news for those of us who have prepared a secret acceptance speech for that sudden moment of fame. It's time to take it out because we don't need to win a beauty pageant to read it aloud. We now have scores of other pageants to choose from. There is just one tiny glitch; we have to think a bit out of the box. Think about landing up in prison, being pregnant or becoming a nun. Ladies and gentlemen, please put your hands together for our top ten weird pageants ideas from around the globe.

10. Miss Atom


No, Miss Atom is not the name of the villain in latest Batman flick. This is a beauty pageant with a nuclear twist.

"The idea behind the contest is to demonstrate how many beautiful girls and young women work in nuclear, because this industry has been closed from public for a long time and the word "atom" evoked usually negative feelings," explains Ilya Platonov, Nuclear.Ru's General Manager. Nuclear.Ru is the organizer of the Miss Atom, a web-based beauty pageant open to contestants, aged 18-35, that are employees of businesses, companies and institutions of the State Corporation "Rosatom" as students of nuclear-related educational establishments.

The popular Miss Atom has been run since 2004. Apparently, last year was as hot as a fission core with a record 340 participants representing more than 60 organizations, businesses and educational institutions in nuclear related fields in Russia, Ukraine and Kazakhstan.

Profile photos often have contestants posing against backdrops like nuclear power plant, machinery and objects. Miss Atom is held every year as an image-building PR campaign for the Russian nuclear industry.

9. Miss Plastic Surgery

What can you expect in a nation obsessed with beauty pageants and plastic surgery? The first Miss Plastic Surgery was held at Beijing, China in 2004. Women and transsexuals between the age group of 17 to 62 participated in this pageant for the title of "best artificial body". All the contestants had to present a doctor-certified proof of their surgical enhancements. Titles like Miss Biggest Change were also presented. A few shots of Botox, cheek and waist liposuction and a surgery to widen the eyes; fetched Feng Qian the title of Miss Plastic Surgery 2004.

8. Sister Italia

This was the brainchild of Father Antonio Rungi, an Italian Catholic priest. Father Rungi announced an online Sister Italia contest in 2008 for nuns in the age group of 18 and 40. People could choose the most attractive nun from the pictures and spiritual profiles in his blog. But before the contest took off, there was a huge controversy and Father Rungi had to cancel the event.

7. Alternative Miss Ireland

Dr. Jekyll and Hyde would have won this competition hands down. The contestants (men, women or animals) of Alternative Miss Ireland are supposed to bring out their alter egos on the stage with whatever props they consider necessary. There are swimwear and eveningwear rounds where judges looks for usual pageant stuff like poise and personality. But what happens inside these rounds can be unpredictable, whacky and outrageous. The contestants of 2009 lied down on bed of nails, turned into green monsters, cracked sex jokes and even snorted cocaine. The winner was crowned with the famous Medusa Crown of Shamrocks.

6. Miss Pregnant



Beauty pageant candidates expelled for their hidden belly secrets can still win the crown; they just have to head in a different direction. Miss Pregnant pageants are being "born" in almost every country. After Peru and Russia, the US also had a contest for to-be-mommies in Cincinnati. The candidates had to strut down the ramp in bikinis before the judges to win $1000 for baby expenses.

5. Miss Prisoner


If looks could kill, some inmates of Bogota's Buen Pastor Prison would be serving a double sentence. Every year this Colombian jail holds a Miss Prisoner contest in memory of Virgin of Mercedes, prisoners' patron saint. Participants walk down in elaborate masks, feathers and gowns to win the coveted title. Contests like these are also held in Rio de Janeiro, Sao Paulo, Nairobi and Lithuania to boost confidence and desire for reform among the inmates. While cash prizes are common in these pageants, a Siberian prison even offers an early parole to the winner.

4. Miss Condom

Here is how this one goes. You just take a condom, prepare your lungs and blow it to the hilt. Thailand, a country battling growing AIDS problem, hosts this four-nation contest. Aimed as an infotainment event, the contest also requires participants to answer questions on the deadly virus and safe sex practices.

3. Miss Mama Kilo


Most of the beauty pageants set a weight limit for the participants. Miss Mama Kilo also has a strict weight limit but the contestants have to be over that limit and not under it in order to qualify for the contest. The annual pageant held in Cameroon invites all women over 90 kilos to walk down the ramp. The beauties are judged not by their waist but by their views on various social issues and traditional housekeeping skills. Miss Mama Kilo is Cameroon's way of changing perception of plus-size women.

2. Miss Muslim Moral


When Khadra al-Mubarak said he was looking for women with inner beauty to participate in his beauty pageant, he actually meant it. The participants of "Queen of Beautiful Morals" held in Saudi Arabia have to be covered completely in their black abayas. There is no Miss Congeniality, Miss Perfect Ten or Miss Beautiful Smile in this contest. Candidates are judged on their moral, family and social values. The winner of the pageant took away $1333 cash, a diamond watch and a paid vacation in Malaysia among other prizes.

1. Miss Landmine Survivor


The landmine problem in Angola and Cambodia stirred artist Mortan Traavik to start this pageant. The idea was to highlight the issue and restore self-esteem among landmine survivors. The Cambodian authorities thought the contest was distasteful and banned it. It was later held in Norway. The winner of Miss Landmine Survivor Angola gets a customized prosthesis made in Norway.

-------------------------------------------------

: WHAT B3TA PEOPLE HAVE BEEN MAKING THIS WEEK
Pipes, Candles & P Diddy

>> Prince Charles Pipes <<
"Charlie loves a big organ," double entendres
Swede Mason. The more you listen to this track,
the weirder Charles sounds - and the more common
the next voice you hear, including your own.
http://www.b3ta.com/links/Pipes

>> Candle puzzle <<
What happens when you burn the candle at both
ends? Any ideas? "A nice puzzle that you can
easily set up yourself with a candle and a few
bits and bobs," writes Nicholas Harrigan. This
level of infectious enthusiasm is impossible to
fake.
http://www.b3ta.com/links/Candle_puzzle

>> P Diddy appreciates... <<
A sophisticated guy, Diddy deserves this
automated tumblr to document his varied tastes.
"Today P Diddy is appreciating something
delicious, but probably unlikely," informs
shardcore.
http://diddyappreciates.tumblr.com/post/40675279169

-------------------------------------------------

: AMAZON TAT
The shit they sell and the reviews you write

* MOBILE PHONE FLASK - if you're an alcoholic
who wants to put a kick in your pint then why
not buy a flask in the style of an old Nokia
phone? Classy.
http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/B007MP01X2/b3ta-21

* COMMUNION WAFERS BOX OF 1,000 - this for the
trollish reviews, "These little beauties are
perfect for the dieter. Order several boxes of
Jesus, and He'll help you out with that
unsightly double chin, just as you prayed!"
http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/0805470859/b3ta-21

* PhD "LOLS" - Imagine the giggling oceanography
academics who got to name this book:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/0444415742/b3ta-21

-------------------------------------------------

: QUESTION OF THE WEEK
Saying the unsayable

Last week we wanted to know when you'd been
forced to say what everyone thinks, but isn't
saying. Because you are all such gentle flowers:
http://b3ta.com/questions/sayingtheunsayable/

* "Careful Where You Stand" - "Bloke I used to
work with ponged a bit and, as the only other
man in the office, I was nominated to find a
quiet moment: 'Adam, sorry to say it, but your
feet really smell bad.' A:'I think that's my
trousers, actually.' 'Oh, right. Well your
trousers smell bad then.' A:'They would, I've
been wearing them for about a month.' 'Would you
consider changing them, then?' A:'Alright. I'll
wear a fresh pair tomorrow.' 'OK, good. Because
people have noticed and there's been a few
complaints from the girls. And it is fair
enough, to be honest.' A:'I don't really care
what the girls think. Some of them are quite
bitchy.' Me:'In what way?' A:'They keep saying I
smell.'" (SnowyTheRabbit)

* "A Message" - "I had a long train journey down
to London with the boyfriend. We'd just settled
down in our reserved seats when I started to
realise someone in the carriage had really bad
B.O. It was quite a quiet train and not wanting
to offend anybody, I wasn't sure how to suggest
to my boyfriend that I thought we should move as
it stank. I was sure he could smell the
offending odour. I hit upon a brainwave: I'll
write it on my phone and show him. I quickly
typed out, 'Stinks in here. Someone has bad B.O.
Shall we move carriages?' and showed him. This
is the point when he said in a rather loud voice
'BO?' (pronouncing it BO as in BO' Selecta)
'What's BO? Who has BO?', at which point I went
bright red and slid far, far down into my train
seat..." (tiddlywink)

* "Warning Sign" - "I quite like Coldplay. Whew,
it's a relief to finally get that off my chest."
(moon monkey)

>> This Week - SORRY <<
With Tesco taking out full page adverts to
apologise for selling us ponyburgers, now is the
time for us all to say Sorry. Write a letter of
apology to someone who deserves it here:
http://b3ta.com/questions/sorry/

-------------------------------------------------

: SITES IN BRIEF
Stuff we like that wasn't made by our mates

>> Major scaled <<
Classic songs, digitally reworked from minor key
to major. Inappropriately cheery.
http://vimeo.com/majorscaledtv

>> The Cold War dollhouse <<
Marketed during the Cuban Missile Crisis of
1962, this children's toy has a slightly
heart-wrenching faithfulness to reality.
http://bit.ly/WmTi3m

>> Parcel for Mr. Assange <<
Interesting experiment - mailing a remote camera
to Wikileaks founder Julian Assange, documenting
every step of the journey. How many levels of
security does Assange's post have to pass
through? Will the camera make it to the man
himself?
http://archive.is/lIwe8

>> Game developers' hidden messages <<
Data hidden in the ROM of retro computer games;
like a time capsule of young programmers
bragging, birth announcements, complaints and
office gossip from 20 years ago. Genuinely
fascinating.
http://bit.ly/ZRkWuO

>> Death Row meals <<
Photographer recreates prisoners' final meals in
his apartment. Morbidly fascinating. Is there so
much fried food because it's comforting or
because you can finally stop worrying about your
cholesterol?
http://bit.ly/VluCd9

>> WTF Evolution? <<
Tumblr blog takes nature to task, with examples
of its questionable taste and competence. Yeah!
Stick it to the man!
http://wtfevolution.tumblr.com/

>> Waxy melt-groin tights <<
Pretty much what it says in the title; these
leggings make it look as if you're dripping wax
down your thighs. Fashion, huh?
http://bit.ly/ScC62G


-------------------------------------------------

: VIDEO SCHMIDEO
Like TV but w/o the Julie Burchill lynch mob

* MOON HOAX REBUTTAL - Although the author has
no way of knowing if anyone has been to the
Moon, he knows that in 1969 they couldn't have
faked the video. Worth sticking around for the
final point at the end.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sGXTF6bs1IU

* EXTREME SPORTS KITTENS - GoPro seem quite
voguish at the moment; a sports camera that can
be attached to anything. Last week it was a
trombone and this week it's playing with
kittens. Now stick one on your tummy and film a
FPS where the weapon is a penis.
http://bit.ly/Vb4BQy

* LIVE-ACTION SHOT-BY-SHOT RECREATION OF TOY
STORY - simply extraordinary level of work and
what a way to really get a hang of film making.
(We recommend 17:30 as a timestamp.)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5G0j_Huv2Fg

* I'M A DOG AND I LIKE SOCKS - metal and
ridiculous lyrics - reminds us of something
Andrew WK might have written.
http://www.b3ta.com/links/Im_a_dog_and_I_like_socks

* TRUST FAIL - fall and I'll catch you. Oh.
http://www.b3ta.com/links/Trust_Fall

-------------------------------------------------

: FRIDAY GAME
Physics Pacman

Wouldn't normally link to a downloady game but
the idea is so neat - a version of Pacman where
you rotate the maze and drop him onto the
ghosts. Watch the video:
http://stabyourself.net/notpacman/

Strange Quotes:

Electricity can be dangerous. My nephew tried to stick a penny into a plug. Whoever said a penny doesn't go far didn't see it shoot across that floor. I told him he was grounded. - Tim Allen

Men do not like to admit to even momentary imperfection. My husband forgot the code to turn off the alarm. When the police came, he wouldn't admit he'd forgotten the code.....he turned himself in. - Rita Rudner

If you can't beat them, arrange to have them beaten. - George Carlin

That married couples can live together day after day is a miracle that the Vatican has overlooked... - Bill Cosby

My mom said the only reason men are alive is for lawn care and vehicle maintenance. - Tim Allen

We have women in the military, but they don't put us in the front lines. They don't know if we can fight, if we can kill. I think we can. All the general has to do is walk over to the women and say, "You see the enemy over there? They say you look fat in those uniforms." - Elayne Boosler

==================================

Today's Featured Humor : -) - Strange Numbers Fun - Calculate Your Birth Number - Find Out Who You Are Like!

Your Birth Number
Birth Number is considered to be the most powerful tool within numerology to calculate the destiny of an individual.The importance of birth numbers have been recognized since the earliest civilizations. Birth number is evolved from the date of birth of an individual.


Example: March 20, 1950
3 + 20 + 1950 = 1973 = 1 + 9 + 7 + 3 = 20 = 2 + 0 = 2
2 is the Birth Number to read for the birth date in the example.


#1 THE ORIGINATOR
#2 THE PEACEMAKER
#3 THE LIFE OF THE PARTY
#4 THE CONSERVATIVE
#5 THE NONCONFORMIST
#6 THE ROMANTIC
#7 THE INTELLECTUAL
#8 THE BIG SHOT
#9 THE PERFORMER



#1 - THE ORIGINATOR

1s are originals - Coming up with new ideas and executing them is natural. Having things their own way is another trait that gets them as being stubborn and arrogant. 1s are extremely honest and do well to learn some diplomacy skills. They like to take the initiative and are often leaders or bosses, as they like to be the best. Being self-employed is definitely helpful for them.... Lesson to learn: Others' ideas might be just as good or better and to stay open minded.

Famous 1s: Tom Hanks, Robert Redbird, Hulk Logan, Carol Burnet, Wynn Judd, Nancy Reagan, Raquel Welsh.

# 2 - THE PEACEMAKER

2s are the born diplomats. They are aware of others' needs and moods and often think of others before themselves. Naturally analytical and very intuitive they don't like to be alone. Friendship and companionship is very important and can lead them to be successful in life, but on the other hand they'd rather be alone than in an uncomfortable relationship. Being naturally shy they should learn to boost their self-esteem and express themselves freely and seize the moment and not put things off.
