cnnmoneytech:


We’ve been playing around with the BlackBerry PlayBook tablet for a few days. Frustratingly, its impressive specs are undercut by missing apps like email, calendar, and BBM. Here’s our vid review of the tablet, which goes on sale today. -Julianne

msnbc: Flesh-eating bacteria have cost a young woman her left leg and will result in more amputations, but she is defying the “slim to none” odds of survival that doctors gave her, more than a week after a gash to her calf sent her to the emergency room. Aimee Copeland of Snellville, Ga., had her left leg amputated last week. On Thursday, doctors determined that the 24-year-old would need to have her remaining foot and her hands amputated, according to her grad school classmates. Image: family photo via aimeecopeland.com

2105: Cosmic Log - Silly science takes the prize: Every year, the Ig Nobels honor the truly weird wonders of science … like the emergency bra that converts into a pair of gas masks. Tonight you can watch the Ig Nobel ceremony live as it unfolds (or crumples up in laughter). The Ig Nobels are presented by the folks behind the Annals of Improbable Research, a scientific humor magazine. Marc Abrahams, the annals’ editor and tonight’s master of ceremonies, likes to say that the awards recognize “achievements that first make people laugh, and then make them think.” Among my own favorite winners: the inventor of the flame-throwing car alarm … the researchers who determined that empty beer bottles make better weapons in a bar brawl than full bottles … and the scientist who wrote a research paper about homosexual necrophiliac duck rape.
