| 34 Things Wrong with 'Star Trek' the Videogame Posted: 26 Apr 2013 09:49 PM PDT There was one wonderful moment in the Star Trek videogame on the bridge of the Enterprise.

| The Blindingly Obvious Truth About Bottled Water Posted: 26 Apr 2013 09:26 PM PDT Sales of bottled water in the United States rose by nearly 7% in 2012, according to the Beverage Marketing Corporation. |
| Asia's Week: Bad Tidings For Export Processing Zones Posted: 26 Apr 2013 09:19 PM PDT Low-wage export manufacturing, often in designated zones, has seeded the early stages of industrialization in many Asian economies. But hazards to health and safety are legion, particularly when independent unions and outside monitors are weak. That's certainly the case in Bangladesh, the world's second-largest garment exporter that has a minimum wage of $37 a month. The dramatic collapse of a multi-storey factory complex outside the capital Dhaka on Wednesday with over 300 lives lost is a reminder of the steep human cost. Workers had reportedly complained about cracks in the wall but to no avail. It collapsed during work hours and overhead photos reveal the crude construction that left it so vulnerable. |

| GOP's Dave Camp: Why Not Put All Federal Employees Onto Obamacare's Exchanges? Posted: 26 Apr 2013 08:39 PM PDT In response to this week's brouhaha regarding attempts by members of Congress to avoid having to enroll themselves and their staff members in Obamacare's health insurance exchanges, Michigan Republican Dave Camp, Chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee, has offered a new proposal: Why not put all federal employees on the exchanges? It's an attractive idea, but it has some downside: it would dismantle a popular model of market-based health reform. |

| The New Xbox: Touch Controllers and Named "Infinity"? Posted: 26 Apr 2013 07:22 PM PDT Is this the new Xbox logo that we'll be seeing on May 21st? We know that the console exists with "Durango" as a code name, but we have been hearing over and over that the final device is going to be called the "Xbox Infinity", and the image below is purported across Twitter and Reddit to be an "official leak". But the logo on the left – sent to us by a source here in Seattle – doesn't mention "Infinity" at all. In fact, it does more to reinforce a rival rumor that the new Xbox will in fact be called just Xbox, similar to how Apple's third-gen iPad was just called "iPad" and not "iPad 3". |
