Smallest Artificial Heart Keeps Baby Alive
Italian doctors implant tiny pump into a 16-month-old boy awaiting his new heart.
Here's a new twist on an long-running story: an artificial heart kept a baby boy alive for 13 days while doctors waited for his new heart,

And it's not because subjects have been trained to smize.
Did you know that you smile when you're frustrated? Starting at 1:20 in the video below, witness a behavior that you may find novel -- and doubly so because you're a human being who is exquisitely tuned to reading the emotional expressions of others.

What if you could have actual humans read websites to you?
A friend of mine, a graduate student in history, says he sometimes so tires of reading that he’ll highlight large amounts of text and have his Mac’s automated voice read aloud to him, while he cooks or exercises. While this seems logical enough to me, it also seems like a stopgap solution. I love being read to, but the last person I would have read to me would be Stephen Hawking. For all the wonders of text-to-voice and voice synthesizing technology, there’s still no match for an old-fashioned, human voice when it comes to having someone read aloud to you.

Look out, kids. Big Mother is watching.
This week, Vodafone starts offering a service called Bemilo that gives parents unprecedented control over how their kids use their cell phones. Bemilo, a £2.95-a-month service (that’s about five bucks), uses a special SIM card that can go in any phone or tablet. Amazingly, and somewhat terrifyingly, parents can log on to a web interface that basically serves as a remote dashboard to their kid’s phone or tablet. There, parents can read all texts, including deleted ones, and can even control who their kid has contact with. Parents can also monitor and restrict browsing of certain websites (read: porn). The BBC has the

Physicists have built a quantum logic gate that combines a quantum dot that fires photons with a photonic circuit that processes them
In the race to build powerful quantum computers, many groups are competing to build logic gates that can process quantum information and still be connected together on a large scale.

A growing body of evidence suggests that the molecular machinery of life emits and absorb photons. Now one biologist has evidence that this light is a new form of cellular communication
One of the more curious backwaters of biology is the study of biophotons: optical or ultraviolet photons emitted by living cells in a way that is distinct from conventional bioluminescence.

Hackers could automate a social engineering trick that has already been proven to work.
A technique used by marketers to trick people into signing up for "free" merchandise could easily be re-deployed as an engine for harvesting untold numbers of Google account passwords. Fixing the issue won't be trivial for Google, because the exploit is fundamental to how Google allows users to recover access to their accounts when they lose or forget their passwords.

In a deadly flu outbreak, shutting airports should reduce the spread of the disease. But networks scientists have discovered a better approach that's just as effective
One of the nightmare scenarios for modern society is the possibility of a global flu pandemic like the 1918 Spanish influenza which infected about a quarter of the global population and killed as many as 130 million of them.

Proof-of-principle experiment shows how humanoid robots can co-operate on a large scale by copying the behaviour of social insects and bacterial colonies
In recent years, various companies and labs have developed impressive humanoid robots that walk, shuffle and even run. Some even dance in groups of up to 20, performing sophisticated choreographed routines.

Quantum tunnelling had always been thought too complex to simulate on today's simple quantum computers. Now a new approach to quantum computing has changed that and opens the door to more complex simulations
The exploitation of quantum weirdness for computing is one of the great goals of modern physics. It's promise is dramatic for a wide range of number-crunching tasks.

Wearable computing, the end of keyboards, enhanced security and sex could all benefit from Touché.
Disney has a new technology, called Touche, that can turn any object, including the human body, into a touch-sensitive surface that recognizes not only when contact has been made, but what kind of contact it is. Plenty of places have covered the details of how this technology works --
