Tape Technology May Diagnose Melanoma Quicker

Tape has many useful purposes. It can help with wrapping presents, fixing a hole or hanging up a poster. Now, the sticky adhesive may have the potential to detect skin cancer. Instead of cutting samples of skin that could be malignant, there’s a new tape-stripping product on the horizon that could prevent painful incisions at the dermatology office.The tape, based on EGIR™ technology (Epidermal Genetic Information Retrieval), takes surface level cells from the skin to check if there are any problems. While the tape is not currently being used on patients, it would make detecting melanoma easier.“Tape stripping is like taking a small piece of scotch tape and literally stripping the mole or a lesion of concern,” said Dr. Orit Markowitz, assistant professor of dermatology at Mt.

Facebook's New HTTPS Mode May Break Facebook Syncing

If you want your Facebook pictures to sync, don't turn on HTTPS! Facebook has a new security feature that lets you use secure HTTPS protocols when possible in order to help keep your private data private. However, if you turn this option on, some Facebook app connectivity may be broken. For example, on Windows Phone 7, if you turn on HTTPS you may notice that your friends' photos no longer update, you will no longer see any images in your "What's New" Feeds, and you won't see Facebook photo libraries update in the Pictures hub. The same is true with the older HTC Sense UI installations in Windows Mobile 6.x as well as some Android Facebook integration...

Beware: New Facebook virus - "look at you haha:P

It appears that there is a new Facebook virus that is going around that may be causing problems.  Unwitting Facebook users are writing on friends' walls with a "Heyy [friend], look at you in this video.. What are you doing?" and attached is a picture with the caption "Look at you haha:P" which is really a link to a Facebook app, not a video.  The picture doesn't have a 'play' button like videos on Facebook. If you have seen this, add a comment below with your location so we can see how widespread this is. You may get this from friends, and before you realize what it is, you click on it.  Be careful because it is likely not really from your friend.  If you're not careful, you may be sending this app to your friends. Malicious...
