Are you serious about using your jacuzzi? Are you ready to take it to the max, or do you just use it to relax? If the latter, then you're definitely not ready to participate in the sport of extreme jacuzzing, which involves sitting in a jacuzzi in the most extreme environments. In the past, this band of daredevils has warmed up in a jacuzzi at the top of an Alpine peak. For their latest stunt, they suspended a jacuzzi 39 meters below a bridge in Switzerland.

India lags behind many other countries in computer technology. Only half of the colleges in that nation have access to the Internet. To broaden computer and especially Internet access, the Indian government is now selling a simple tablet computer called the Aakash at a subsidized rate of $35 each:

The 13-ounce touch-screen device can handle basic computing, including email, social networking, surfing, online banking, instant messaging and multimedia. The stripped-down system uses Google's Android 2.2 operating system and comes with headphones, Wi-Fi access, two USB slots, 256 megabytes of internal memory and a 7-inch screen. It is not considered on the same level of the more advanced tablets available to consumers.

"This will allow basic computing beyond the mobile phone," said Vishal Tripathi, an analyst with Gartner, a high-tech research firm.

Although the tablets were designed in the UK, they're being assembled in India in the hope of spurring domestic production of computer hardware.

This video, which shows multiple C-3POs dancing with multiple Darth Vaders to disco versions of Star Wars theme music, is allegedly from an 80s French TV show. I'm not sure if it's fortunate or tragic that the original trilogy didn't take advantage of disco music's popularity.
