    An Israeli army officer who fired the entire magazine of his automatic rifle into a 13-year-old Palestinian girl and then said he would have done the same even if she had been three years old was acquitted on all charges by a military court yesterday.

    Gmail is rolling out “Priority Inbox” a Facebook-like feature that predicts what emails are most important to you.

    As messages come in, Gmail automatically flags some of them as important. Gmail uses a variety of signals to predict which messages are important, including the people you email most (if you email Bob a lot, a message from Bob is probably important) and which messages you open and reply to (these are likely more important than the ones you skip over).

    I dont like Facebook telling me who my friends are, and Im not sure I like Gmail telling me what email is more important. I will just have to see how it works once I start seeing the Priority Inbox feature on my Gmail account.

    Guy travels world for 3 years visiting 70 countries in total. This is his account.

    As everyone knows, Im a bit of a wine snob. Here’s an excellent list of tips on how to order wine in a restaurant. This is true Ive seen some wine snobs do this and it makes me sick:
