Trump misunderstood MIT research, university officials say
Massachusetts Institute of Technology professors and researchers say President Donald Trump badly understood their research, which led to him misunderstanding the affects of climate change, then leading onto his decision to resign the United States from the Paris Climate Agreement. Trump announced at the White House Rose Garden that he would pull out of the climate agreement, stating it would not reduce global temperatures quickly enough to have a desirable impact. "Even if the Paris Agreement were implemented in full, with total compliance from all nations, it is estimated it would only produce a two-tenths of one degree Celsius reduction in global temperature by the year 2100," Trump said. Trump also added on, that the affect is a "tiny, tiny amount." His claim was based on research conducted by MIT. MIT published a document titled, "How much of a difference will the Paris Agreement make?" In the contents of the research, it showed that if countries followed up with the collaborative deal, global temperatures would slow by between 0.6 degrees celsius and 1.1 degrees celsius by 2100. Trump viewed this as a small percentage change. However, MIT researchers say by pulling out of the climate agreement, it could reach as high as five degrees celsius, which is very detrimental to the progress of fighting climate change.

The new Ubisoft logo
Ubisoft surprisingly unveiled a new logo this week. The new emblem is a redesigned version of the company's famous symbol, similar to a vortex, but is now simple and colorless.
This is the first change of the 2003 logo when the French company presented its idea of an authentic three-dimensional emblem and colored in royal blue. This is the fourth time Ubisoft has changed its logo. When it was founded in 1986, the company had developed a stylized theme of the 80's text in pink color (then it was still called Ubi Soft).
Ubisoft describes their new logo as "minimalist, modern and monochromatic". The subject is inspired by the current "flat" design trend. The company added: "The swirl and lettering O are deliberately designed to resemble human-painted shapes and symbolize our human qualities such as enthusiasm, curiosity, and the grain de folie(crazy particle) that Ubisoft boasts."
The new logo definitely does not have a distinctive color or depth, but Ubisoft still has many ideas for it. The company assured Twitter users who have doubts about the new animations in the games, "we still have many different animations" - because at the start of each Ubisoft game, the previous emblem is specifically animated to match the style and aesthetics of the game .
Solar Powered Blinds
Around a few months ago, Tesla unveiled their impressive line of solar panels. Their solar panels were made in such a way that was both very compact and resourceful. Their goal was to create a panel that would replace the shingles on a roof. Previous solar panels simply went on top of shingles. By replacing the shingles themselves with solar panels, a lot of space would be saved and more panels can be used. Being able to shrink solar panels down to that size was very impressive and now, a company has managed to shrink down the size even further. A company has managed to develop solar panels that can be placed over window blinds and act as another way to harvest the Sun's energy. The company known as SolarGaps, have started a Kickstarter campaign to fund their project. Their aim is to provide a compact panel that can be placed over most window blinds. So far their Kickstarter campaign has been successful, gaining $60K of their $50K goal.

Bryson Tiller - True To Self
True To Self released on May 26th and it is the second studio album by the RnB singer Bryson Tiller. Over the years of soundcloud clout and then finally the release of his first studio album Bryson has received a lot of good feedback. The album is fairly long with an impressive 19 songs. Most of the songs seem to feed off of each other sort of like a DJ is mixing them together at a party and it forms a very well put together album. The elements of this album are similar to Bryson's other music as he addresses issues such as current girlfriends, ex girlfriends, children, depression, enlightenment and close to any other contradictory couple of words you can think of. Personally I found the album incredibly enjoyable to listen to, and a relaxing vibe album. If you're not looking to be in your "feels" then I wouldn't suggest this album is for you.
I give this album a 7 / 10. Close to a medium rating just because it seems washed on release. We've heard this same type of stuff too many times. Nonetheless, it's still enjoyable.
Real Madrid defeats Juventus in UEFA Champions League final
Real Madrid are the first to win back-to-back titles since the competition morphed into the Champions League. Real's victory against Juventus starring Cristiano Ronaldo with two goals which took his career tally to an extraordinary 105 Champions League goals. Cristiano's first goal in this game was his club's 500th in the competition. Real Madrid’s title was its 12th, and the third in four years. It's worth mentioning that Zinedine Zidane has now won five titles, including two Champions League titles, in his 18 months as Real manager. Mario Mandzukic scored a goal for Juventus on a scissoring shot midway through the first half, but that wasn't enough to stop Real Madrid from heating up and writing this victory in the history of soccer.
Acme Gallery Closing After 22 Years!
According to an online source, the Acme Gallery in Los Angeles will be closing their doors after an astonishing 22 years in business. The gallery was founded by Robert Gunderman and Randy Sommer in 1994 and artists have described the gallery as a home instead of a business. It has been confirmed that Acme's final two shows are scheduled through June 10. Once both of those exhibitions are finished, Acme will officially close their doors! The Acme Gallery was home to amazing exhibitions that will already be remembered forever in art history. Its closure has been a great shock to many artists and people who had the opportunity to experience its magical atmosphere.

MPGH News
This week we are featuring the MPGH News section.
Lets run down memory lane to when the News Force began. Our current Moderator and Middleman, Psychotic, had formed this team in 2012, forming their first edition (20th edition - oldest that can be found) seen here. A year later, the News Force had suddenly disappeared, probably due to the Halloween edition taking a toll on every single member. If you'd like to read about the last edition where Psychotic was Head Editor for that period of time, visit here. 3 months later, bowlcut rose to the challenge and produced the 44th edition, having a reign with Ameer who joined at edition 53 as the second head editor. Color usurped their positions in 2015, but had lost his position to Psychotic who made a return on the 72nd edition. Cursed had noticed Psychotic's inactivity towards the end of 2015, taking up the role of Head Editor while Psychotic resided to Freelancer. However, on the 107th edition, Hova had taken up the position while Cursed had become a freelancer, similarly to Psychotic. Hova's reign as Head Editor has been from 21 June 2016 up until now and hopefully longer.
LONG LIVE HOVA!!!
