The new state law doesn’t outlaw some cell phone behavior – including talking or reading publications on a wireless device. Drivers also can still look at directions on a GPS device if it’s affixed to the vehicle.

For Ghostly International’s hundredth release (GI-100), we wanted to commemorate the occasion with something more than music, something bigger, more permanent–a humble monument to our first decade’s work and a gift to our loyal fans. With that in mind, we give you Manzoku: The Ghostly Bento.

I was seriously considering getting a new HTC EVO phone from Sprint until I heard about an additional monthly service charge specific to the phone:
A $10 per month Premium Data add-on will apply allowing customers to take advantage of a richer data experience than ever before.
Multiple sites have reported this charge to be mandatory, even in markets that don’t have 4G coverage, such as Ann Arbor. A $10 extra fee just to use an EVO phone? Count me out. The whole 4G branding initiative is a joke anyway, with data bandwidth caps imminent, lead by AT&T’s announcement earlier this week.

In just the past seven days, residents of Guatemala and parts of neighboring Honduras and El Salvador have had to cope with a volcanic eruption and ash fall, a powerful tropical storm, the resulting floods and landslides, and a frightening sinkhole in Guatemala City that swallowed up a small building and an intersection.
This sounds promising:
NEW YORK (May 19, 2010) – A technique pioneered in the Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine Laboratory of Dr. Jeremy Mao, the Edward V. Zegarelli Professor of Dental Medicine at Columbia University Medical Center, can orchestrate stem cells to migrate to a three-dimensional scaffold infused with growth factor, holding the translational potential to yield an anatomically correct tooth in as soon as nine weeks once implanted.
Nice looking journal program for Mac OS X. I currently use MacJournal for my work notebook, since it allows you to embed PDFs, but this looks like a great program for a basic personal journal.
Major Lazer and La Roux present Lazerproof. A new mixtape available from Mad Decent.

Pretty good list. Here’s the top 5:
Eight years and $100 million worth of reconstruction later, the stairs and arches were still there, and Tamalpais’ familiar clock tower still rises over the hillside campus. Everything else seemed new.
“It’s outstanding. Remarkable,” said Dandekar, who visited the Mill Valley campus for its “grand reopening” Saturday. “I’ve had outsiders pass by and ask me if this was the campus of a private college. They can’t believe it’s a public high school.”
