1. 'Good night': Haunting final contact from missing Malaysian jet

    35

    The last words from the cockpit of missing Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 – "all right, good night" – were uttered after someone on board had already begun disabling one of the plane's automatic tracking systems, a senior Malaysian official said.

    Both the timing and informal nature of the phrase, spoken to air traffic controllers as the plane with 239 people aboard was leaving Malaysian-run airspace on a March 8 flight to Beijing, could further heighten suspicions of hijacking or sabotage…Video and read more

  2. Why 5-Year-Old Kids Can Do Algebra

    31

    Find algebra difficult? Well, think about this: Scientists find that even 5-year-old kids can do it. Now do you feel better?

    If not, maybe this will help. Preschoolers can do basic algebra — and we do mean very basic — through gut instincts that we share with a lot of other animals, but by the time we get fully involved in the educational process algebra will become a lot more difficult. Read more

    Such short-range rocket tests are usually considered routine, as opposed to North Korean long-range rocket or nuclear tests, which are internationally condemned as provocations. North Korea has conducted a string of similar short-range launches in recent weeks that have coincided with the annual military drills by allies Washington and Seoul…Watch video and read more

  5. The bridesmaid dress nightmare ends — with online rentals

    Bride and bridesmaids

    Bride and bridesmaids: Bridesmaids often have to shell out hundreds of dollars for designer dresses that they’ll never wear again. The new web site Vow to Be Chic aims to end the waste by renting high-end dresses for the wedding party.

     

    By Aaron Pressman, The Exchange, March 14, 2014

    Kelsey Doorey has been a bridesmaid six times, experiencing the excitement, the emotions — and the expense. While men in wedding parties typically rent their tuxedos, women get stuck paying for dresses they’ll probably never wear again.

    “Many of my best friends aren’t engaged yet, so I have many more to come,” she says. “It’s an honor, but it’s an expensive honor.”

    So the 28-year-old recent UCLA business school grad decided to do something about it.

    Her new company, Vow to be Chic, rents designer dresses for bridesmaids from a website. Instead of paying hundreds of dollars for a new dress, customers pay $95 to $125 and, after the bride and groom head off into the sunset, the dresses go back.

    Exclusive deals

    The site has struck exclusive deals to carry several of the most popular styles each from five of the eight top designers of bridesmaid dresses, including Swoon and Lula Kate. Every dress is available in multiple colors and a full range of sizes.

    Traditionally, a bride selects the dress for her bridesmaids, who then each must head to one particular boutique for a fitting. It’s often stressful as well as expensive – think of Katherine Heigl’s character in the movie “27 dresses.”

    Malaysia asks countries for data to help find jet

    Officials revealed that the final words from the cockpit — "All right, good night" — were spoken to air traffic controllers after the plane's data communication system had been partially disabled. The pilots did not mention any trouble on board, suggesting they may have been misleading ground control.

    As investigators dug through the background of all 239 people on board Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 and the ground crew that serviced the plane, a new detail emerged that strengthened speculation that one or both of the pilots were involved in the aircraft's disappearance more than a week ago…Watch video and read more
