Quantum Entanglement sounds kinda sexy

But according to this article, it ain't so much. Well, fine. But a girl can dream, can't she?

The article opens adding insult to injury:

"Quantum entanglement" may sound like an awful sci-fi romance flick, but it's actually a phenomenon that physicists say may someday lead to the ability to teleport an object all
the way across the galaxy instantly.

Whatev.

And then there's this tidbit:

"When two electrons are placed close together, they vibrate in unison. When you separate them, that's when all the fireworks start."

And this:

Then, if you vibrate one of them, somehow on the other end of the galaxy the other electron knows that its partner is being jiggled.

Whoa. I'd read this.

A Bad Hair Day...

...can be science-fiction. Trust me, I know from experience. However, I admit it wasn't quite this bad:

More zombie love

I ask you, what's not to love about this site? Check it out!

Fact following fiction?

An article in the UK Daily Mail touts a new synthetic blood substitute that mimics bone marrow production to aid wounded soldiers on the battlefield.

Sounds fantastic and life-saving. But the article failed to mention if Ziodex Industries is behind the development. They are, after all, after a new cash crop.

Of course, the Japanese could be behind the new synthetic. I hear there's a growing market in Bon Temps, Louisiana.

Well, that explains it

I love this scientific conclusion by Annalee Newitz about this story from from io9:
Mystery object orbiting distant star baffles astronomers

"I think we all know what's going on here. It's a hollowed-out planet that an advanced civilization uses as a spacecraft, which fell into orbit around the star after vacuum vampires slaughtered the crew. It's the most obvious explanation."

Works for me.

Books that make my literaryish paranormalish heart beat faster

Oh man, this went straight into my Amazon cart. As a Jane Eyre and Buffy fan, this couldn't be a sweeter idea.

And if this wasn't enough, I discovered many other titles of pure awesomeness.
This beats comics to film any day.

All that's missing is a classic with aliens. I'm thinking something with Northanger Abby...c'mon, people, don't let me down!

A new sci-fi romance?

H/t Galaxy Express.

This film looks amazing!
