Live shows from U2 and the Foo Fighters were all well and good, but let’s be honest, they weren’t the miracle of childbirth. A 23-year-old Minnesota woman named Lynsee (no last name given) is ready to step in where Bono left off, opening up the birth of her child to the world wide Web.
“We wanted to share this experience,” she told ABC News. “If I were in a classroom, I’d be teaching about development. It was a way for me to teach… A way for me to use myself as a textbook.”
Lynsee, set to give birth in the next couple of days, will be broadcasting the birth via the pregnancy social networking site, MomsLikeMe. Other users are welcome to participate in the event via chat. ….

Baking cookies in your oven is fine and all, but if you want to turn out some tasty cookies in a very short time, consider turning to your trusty waffle iron. Turns out you’re only 90 seconds away from crispy, chewy, cookie-goodness.

Although your oven will still have its place for making large batches of cookies, using your waffle iron can bake up a cookie in just 90 seconds. It’s the perfect solution for previously prepared dough when you just need a quick sugar fix instead of an entire pan hanging around the house to tempt you. ….

Space explorers have yet to get their hands on the replicator of “Star Trek” to create anything they might require. But NASA has developed a technology that could enable lunar colonists to carry out on-site manufacturing on the moon, or allow future astronauts to create critical spare parts during the long trip to Mars.
The method, called electron beam freeform fabrication (EBF3), uses an electron beam to melt metals and build objects layer by layer. Such an approach already promises to cut manufacturing costs for the aerospace industry, and could pioneer development of new materials. It has also thrilled astronauts on the International Space Station by dangling the possibility of designing new tools or objects, researchers said…..
