"A network of tiny pipes of water could be used to cool next-generation PC chips, researchers at IBM have said.

Scientists at the firm have shown off a prototype device layered with thousands of "hair-width" cooling arteries.

They believe it could be a solution to the increasing amount of heat pumped out by chips as they become smaller and more densely packed with components. "

"Ira Isaacs readily admits he produced and sold movies depicting bestiality and sexual activity involving feces and urine. The judge warned potential jurors that the hours of fetish videos included violence against women, and many of them said they don't want to serve because watching would make them sick to their stomachs."

""There's no question the stuff is disgusting," said Diamond, who has spent much of his career representing pornographers. "The question is should we throw people in jail for it?""

A top federal judge who is presiding over an obscenity trial in Los Angeles has been caught posting explicit photos and videos to his web site. The judge told the Los Angeles Times that he didn't think the site was publicly accessible.

Alex Kozinski (at right), a conservative appointee of former president Ronald Reagan who is chief of the U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals, posted a photo of naked women standing on all fours and painted to look like cows, as well as a video of a half-naked man with a farm animal. A step-by-step pictorial depicted a woman shaving her pubic hair and other images showed masturbation and what the Times called "contortionist sex."

And... this is new? For a few years now, in the UK, benefits have been paid directly into bank accounts, and there's special debit accounts with a card available in Post Offices.

I guess it'll take Barack Obama to create a universal healthcare system in the US, starting in, say... 2009/10? (if at all?), whereas we in the UK have had the NHS since... what? The late 1940s/early 1950s? Do keep up, America.

"Following the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s warning on Tuesday that tomatoes might be linked to several cases of salmonellosis in Texas and New Mexico and other seven U.S. states, some stores have already pulled the products from their shelves.

There have been 57 cases of salmonellosis (the illness caused by the Salmonella bacteria called Saint Paulthat) since late April in Texas and New Mexico. Seventeen people have been hospitalized , but no death has been reported, the CDC said. Moreover, about 30 people have been sickened in Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas and Utah.

The bad news is that no single source, farm, or grocery store has been found to be responsible for the outbreak. "

Mexican salsas were traditionally produced using the mortar and pestle-like molcajete, although blenders are now more commonly used. Well-known salsas include

* Salsa roja, "red sauce": used as a condiment in Mexican and southwestern U.S. cuisine, and usually made with cooked tomatoes, chili peppers, onion, garlic, and fresh cilantro.
* Salsa cruda ("raw sauce"), also known as pico de gallo ("rooster's beak"), salsa picada ("chopped sauce"), salsa mexicana ("Mexican sauce"), or salsa fresca ("fresh sauce"), "salsa bandera" ("flag sauce", in allusion to the Mexican flag): made with raw tomatoes, lime juice, chilli peppers, onions, cilantro leaves, and other coarsely chopped raw ingredients.
* Salsa verde, "green sauce": Mexican version made with tomatillos. Sauces made with tomatillos are usually cooked. Italian version made with herbs.
* Salsa taquera, "Taco sauce": Made with tomatillos and morita chili.
* Salsa ranchera, "ranch-style sauce": made with tomatoes, various chilies, and spices. Typically served warm, it possesses a thick, soupy quality. Though it contains none, it imparts a characteristic flavor reminiscent of black pepper.

>evidence linked to child sex abuse

See? In the UK, the police can do ANYTHING. They have the power to enter, search & seize ANYTHING they suspect pertains to CP - and they can do so WITHOUT a warrant. And you can forget about encrypting stuff. You can be charged with impeding investigations, withholding evidence & perverting the course of justice. In other words, if you've got stuff that NEEDS to be encrypted, as far as the police are concerned, it's CP. Better start nuking those HDs, UK lolicons. They have MI6's ECHELON & GCHQ's supercomputers on their side (they've helped the FBI crack many a CP ring in the US & other countries).

Operation Orr is watching you.

"TOKYO - A man who police said "was tired of life" drove into a crowd of pedestrians Sunday and then went on a stabbing rampage in Tokyo's top electronics and video game district, killing seven people and wounding 10, authorities said."

"News reports said the man crashed a rented, two-ton truck into pedestrians, then jumped out of the truck and began stabbing the people he'd knocked down before turning on horrified onlookers."

"At least 17 ambulances rushed to the scene"

"Nearly two weeks after its historic landing, scientists operating the U.S. Mars probe Phoenix are still trying to deliver a soil sample into one of the instruments, mission scientists said Monday."

"Though images relayed back to Earth showed the dirt sitting on top of TEGA, detectors inside the instrument indicated that none of the soil particles had fallen through the screen at the entrance to the oven.

According to scientists, the soil could be clumping together for several reasons, including the presence of salts that bind the material together or moisture in the soil that developed during landing and cemented the particles together. These factors, combined with the large amount of dirt delivered to the instrument, seem to be keeping the sample from getting in the oven for heating."
