• Science
• Relativity drive: The end of wings and wheels?
  Brilliant idea, can't wait to see the working model, though I think we will still need the wings and wheels, just not the engine.
• Scientist shocked as Arctic polar route emerges
  Oooooo-kay. Anybody else want to move as high as possible?
• Virgin Galactic Unveils SpaceShip Two interior
  My favorite part of the story: someone traded in 2 million Virgin Atlantic frequent flier miles for a trip!
• Television
• America Nabs the Vicar of Dibley
  Such a funny television show that will likely be completely horrible on American television.
• Fox tries to thwart DVR fast-forwarding
  After all that advertiser whining, all it takes is a little creativity. At least until the 30-second skip button becomes standard.
