A new study shows that crows remember people's faces and will recruit other crows to attack those that have wronged them.

We've all heard of all-you-can-eat, but all-you-can-watch is a whole new concept. A new company is going to let people watch all the movies they can stand for only $50 a month. They're starting out in San Francisco, but if things work out well, they're hoping to expand nationally. What do you guys think, would you buy the pass?
