Traditional lab tests for disease diagnosis can be too expensive and cumbersome for the regions most in need. George Whitesides’ ingenious answer, at TEDxBoston, is a foolproof tool that can be manufactured at virtually zero cost.

Yeah the entire Jon Stewart Interview

Jill Scott is fighting allegations that she not only breached an agreement but owes her former record label three albums.

In a statement issued Friday, a representive for Scott says the lawsuit has “no legal merit” and “misrepresents” the singer’s long held relationship with the label she has called home for at least ten years.

“The lawsuit filed on February 3, 2010 by Hidden Beach Recordings against Jill Scott has no legal merit and misrepresents the history of Ms. Scott’s relationship with the label. Jill Scott has the legal right to terminate her recording contract with Hidden Beach Recordings under California’s 7-year rule, where she had been a recording artist for more than 10 years,” the statement reads. “During her time at Hidden Beach Recordings, she released several highly successful albums. At this time, with many creative projects in the works which include music, film and television roles and product development, Ms. Scott looks forward to continuing to further her artistry and building the Jill Scott brand in other creative environments.”

As previously reported, Scott is due to appear in a series of film related projects (Sins of the Mother, Why Did I Get Married Too) this year, followed by the release of an album titled Light of the Sun.

” L’Homme Qui Marche I (Walking Man 1) – sold within eight minutes for £65 million ($104.3 million). The sale of the Giacometti sculpture set a new world record at Sotheby’s auction”

‘Walking Man I stands as a symbol of humanity always striving, ever seeking’

An undisputed masterpiece of Giacometti’s sculpture, L’Homme qui marche I is also one of the most iconic images of Modern art. It represents the pinnacle of Giacometti’s experimentation with the human form, combining a monumental, imposing size with a rich rendering of the surface. Capturing a transient moment in the figure’s movement, Giacometti created both a humble image of an ordinary man, and a potent symbol of humanity.

Well, if Anne Hathaway – 27, from the quiet, affluent suburb of Millburn, New Jersey – is so prim, so naive, so wide-eyed and so innocent, then what on God’s earth is she doing sitting opposite me, mid-way through a long, hot, lazy lunch in Los Angeles, flashing her hazel eyes while gently tonguing, yes, tonguing, the back of her china-white palm like a tip-hungry stripper at Le Crazy Horse? It’s an act that’s head-swimmingly discombobulating. The actress’ supposed façade of niceness has been pulled back – just for a split second – to reveal something far, far wilder. For Anne it’s her very own SuBo moment.

“We were talking about kissing,” I offer clumsily, shattering the crackling sexual menace in a voice that, on hearing the words aloud, suddenly sounds about as come-hither as a car’s sat-nav command. Anne, perhaps sensing my inability to form a proper sentence, takes the lead: “You have to leave your mouth open a little bit…” she purrs, making me squirm into uncharted levels of prudishness, closing her eyes and smudging her plump red lips against her own left hand, which she’s holding tenderly with her right as she might the face of a co-star. “Open up,” Anne suggests breathlessly as the earth seems to spin ever so slightly faster on its axis. “More, more, ever so lightly… otherwise you’re going to be getting smooshy,” she advises. “Now… slow it down… just a little bit…”
