Human Body Parts Found in Tiger Shark's Stomach - Flash Player Installation - 2 views

  • The legs, arms and severed torso of a person were all found inside the stomach of a tiger shark caught by sport fishermen last weekend
  • Tiger sharks can swim over long distances, so it is not yet clear where the 12-foot-long shark consumed its human victim.
  • At least two people were recently reported as being missing in the Bahamas, according to Miller, who isn't ruling out any possible scenario just yet. For example, the person could have already been dead, and the shark may have just scavenged that individual's remains. Miller said a boat on its way to Florida capsized, so the person on board that fateful vessel could have drowned before being discovered by the tiger shark.

Apple loosens its chokehold on app development - Sep. 9, 2010 - 1 views

  • Apple is loosening its grip on its app development for its mobile devices, announcing Thursday that it will drop restrictions on what programming tools developers can use to create iOS apps.
  • The unexpected move means Apple is standing down in what had become an increasingly heated battle between the company and the developers who have created the more than 250,000 apps that stock Apple's App Store.
  • Adobe's current Flash development suite includes a tool for converting apps to run on Apple's platform, but the company said in April that it would stop further development on that tool because of Apple's restrictions and focus more on Google's Android operating system.

Call 911? Maybe not, from a cell phone - CNN.com - 1 views

  • If you can't find this information online or in a local phone book, call the local Police Department's nonemergency number during business hours and ask what they recommend. Keep this list of local emergency numbers short. Only program in the numbers for the towns, cities or counties where you spend most of your time.
  • But most importantly: When calling 911 from a cell phone, say where you are first. If you're unsure of your exact address, at least name the town or neighborhood and glance around quickly to see whether there's something you can say you're near (such as the name of a nearby business or street, or a noticeable landmark). Then quickly explain the nature of the emergency. Before you get into the situation details, give your cell phone number. If you get disconnected, emergency services might not know how to call you back -- but with your number, they can either re-establish contact or enlist your wireless carrier's help in finding you.
    • Diego Degaudenzi
       
      In this highlight the article gives you some tips. For example, they recommend that the first thing you do when you call 911 is give the address. They also recomend for you to give your number incase the call fails and that way the police can track you.
