In Science/Technology:
- Scientists are going to blow up the moon… well… sort of. They’re sending a missile up to the moon so that when the crater they’re sending it up to blows up, they can see if there’s any ice under the surface.
- Google Voice has presented problems for cell phone carriers, especially AT&T, as people can cancel their subscriptions to carriers and use it instead of normal cell phone use. But many carriers are now allowing it on their phones. Good news if you have an iPhone or an Android.
- While we’re on the topic of Google, Twitter may now sell your tweets to Google and Microsoft so that you can search tweets in Google and Bing.
In World News:
- 17 are left dead in a car bombing outside the Indian Embassy today.
- Herta Müller has won the Nobel Prize for Literature.
- 3 dead newborns and a dead woman were found in a Calgary home. Police are opening an investigation.
In Health:
- The age group swine flu* affects most (middle and high school students) did the worst on getting shots.
- Scientists now think they can link chronic fatigue back to a virus.
*I HAVE to say this every time I say “swine flu”: Swine flu is no more dangerous than normal flu. It’s just a different strain. Don’t get all up in a fuss about it.
