It’s Pizza for Polio Day.

Organized by the Rotary Club of Chatham, this is the 8th year for the fundraiser.

Any pizza ordered today from the participating restaurants, takeout or delivery, will see a portion of sales being donated back to the Rotary Club to help eradicate polio worldwide. Proceeds will also be tripled by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation to support the eradication of Polio.

Participating Chatham-Kent pizzerias are: Andy’s Place, Konstantinos, Mike’s Place, Original 2 Pizza, Pie-zano’s, Pizza Tonite, and Steve’s Pizzeria.

Big jump expected at the pumps today. Prices are rising by 6 cents (on average) a litre across the province, to 166.9.

Locally this morning the prices are (on average) at: 169.9 in Chatham, 159 in Wallaceburg, 157 in Blenheim and 155 in Tilbury.

Motorola has a new phone they’re working on with a screen that shrinks and expands.

The phone starts out at a very pocketable 4 inches high, but with the click of a button, the OLED panel extends to a normal-sized 6.5 inches. Another click retracts the phone back to its original form. It’s usable at both sizes, and the content on the screen adapts to the size, including the home screen, videos and more. There’s also a laptop version.

Motorola already makes a folding device, the Razr, that’s unfortunately only available in China. The rollout screen is still just a concept for the time being.
