Sunbeam Products is recalling almost a million crockpots sold by retailers including Amazon, Target and Walmart after roughly 100 consumers were burned — some seriously — when the lids blew off in use, spewing hot food and liquid. The recalled Crock-Pot multi-cooker can pressurize when the lid is not fully locked, causing the lid to suddenly come off in use, posing burn risks to consumers from spewing hot food and liquids, according to a notice posted by the U.S. Consumer Products Safety Commission. Sunbeam has received 119 reports of lids detaching, resulting in 99 injuries ranging in severity from first-degree...

I do not collect many souvenirs, but I saw one piece of inaugural bliss I would like to have: the Commemorative Barack Obama Sunbeam. Each sunbeam, the ad tells us, comes with a certificate guaranteeing that it passed over the “raised visage of the anointed one,” and “while supplies last,” we are promised that the dust motes floating in each sunbeam will contain at least one dead skin cell from the Lightworker himself.

(AP) - Scientists in Israel have concentrated free sunlight into a high-intensity beam typically reserved for expensive laser surgery. Details of the liver surgery experiments on mice appear in Thursday's issue of the journal Nature. "It would be especially valuable in my university's medical center, which has not been able to afford a single laser fiber-optic surgical system," said the study's lead author, Jeffery M. Gordon of Ben-Gurion University in Tel Aviv. Sophisticated laser surgery equipment costs more than $100,000, while the sunlight scalpel system is assembled with off-the-shelf parts. Gordon and partner Daniel Feuermann used a rooftop mirror less...
