Could Conjoined Twins Share a Mind?
| June 3, 2011
It was bedtime for Krista and Tatiana Hogan, and the 4-year-old twin girls were doing what 4-year-olds everywhere do at bedtime. They were stalling, angling for more time awake. Their grandmother, Louise McKay, who lives with the girls and their parents in Vernon, a small city in British Columbia, was speaking to them in soothing tones, but the girls resorted to sleep-deferring classics of the toddler repertory. “I want one more hug!” Krista said to their grandmother, and then a few minutes later, they both called out to her, in unison, “I miss you!”
The First Trillionaires Will Make Their Fortunes in Space
| June 3, 2011
It’s always interesting to me when people start bringing economics into such other worldly endeavors as space exploration. However financial gain will ultimately be the driving force to get us there.

Lewis in his book Mining The Sky: Untold Riches from the Asteroids, Comets, and Planets.

Facebook CEO promises to eat only what he kills

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg has given himself these challenges every year, which have ranged from learning Chinese to dressing up in a suit and tie every day. This year his task is a bit heavier: he plans to only eat meat from animals he himself has killed.
After slaughtering each animal Zuckerberg sends the meat off for processing, and upon return, he and his girlfriend cook it themselves, making sure to use every last bit. And during his numerous restaurant trips (being CEO of a huge corporation means frequent lunch meetings), Zuckerberg doesn’t forget his pledge; if he can’t be the one to provide the meat, he orders strictly off the vegetarian menu.

Facebook Is Number One Tool For Divorce Lawyers
| June 1, 2011
Hmmm, should we blame the cheating spouse? Nope. Blame the lawyers that are now digging through wall posts instead of your garbage can? Nope. Blame Zuckerberg. Damn you Mark Zuckerberg, damn you!
One divorce attorney says that the first place she goes to when starting a case is all the various social networking sites, Facebook being the primary one. The information gleaned there can be useful when trying to negotiate a better settlement for their clients. Like a screenshot of a series of flirty wall posts.
