    Ralph Lauren To Stage 4D Visual Spectacle On MAdison Avenue – To celebrate the 10th anniversary of its $200-million-per-year U.S. e-commerce business and the launch of its e-commerce site in the UK, Ralph Lauren is staging a “four-dimensional” light installation on Wednesday night at its flagship locations in New York and London. We simply MUST do the same thing when we launch the Johannesburg 2oceansvibe Radio studio! [mashable]

    Pink Has A Bun In The Oven – Pink is reportedly pregnant with her first child. The 31-year-old singer – who is married to motocross racer Carey Hart – is 12 weeks pregnant, and is “really happy” with the news. A source said: “She’s 12 weeks along. She wanted to do it between tours, when she has some time off.” Awesome. Nearly as awesome and the source of the report. [earthtimes]

    Amazon Defends ‘Pedophile’s Guide – Amazon is selling a self-published book defending pedophiles, sparking discussions about the retailer’s obligation to vet items before they are sold in its online stores, and threats of boycott from Amazon customers if the book is not removed. The name of the book is “The Pedophile’s Guide to Love and Pleasure: a Child-lover’s Code of Conduct.” Charming. I should contact them about my Murder 101 book I wrote some time ago. [timeslive]

    Google Fires Employee Who Leaked News About Raises – Google is known to hire the best and the brightest Silicon Valley has to offer, but hanging onto that talent can be a struggle. Google’s bold move to boost morale — a 10% across-the-board pay raise — has already cost it one worker: The employee who leaked the news. Reminds me of that chick who refused to work for Shuttleworth. One year before he gave them all a bar each. [cnnmoney]

    Groggle Loses Fight With Google – To Australian entrepreneur Cameron Collie, Groggle seemed the perfect name for a website comparing the price of alcohol, or ‘grog’ as it is known Down Under, at nearby bottle stores. Web Goliath Google, however, felt differently. Now, after a six-month legal tussle, Collie has changed the name of his business, which hopes to show customers where to find their neighbourhood’s cheapest liquor, to Drinkle. [news24]

    Honeymoon Space Shuttle Lets Newlyweds Enjoy Microgravity Lovemaking – Yelken Octuri, the man who designs interiors for Airbus, has earlier impressed us with his two Aircraft of the Future concepts called Flying yacht and the Sailing aircraft, which appear to have come straight from some sci-fi fiction. Another interesting design from Yelken Octuri is the Honeymoon space shuttle for a weightless honeymoon in space. [bornrich]

    Take Your Work On The Road – Never run out of juice again, let the OneDayOnly guys have your back. Also, I heard that they have Tiger Woods’ bed going on sale pretty soon. Wait. What? Good vibe. [onedayonly]

    Madoff’s Possessions To Go On The Block – Care to cook your breakfast in the Madoff family’s toaster oven? Limber up on their yoga mat? Safeguard your family with their carbon monoxide detector? Now is your chance – for a price. The United States Marshals Service on Wednesday unveiled hundreds of items that it will auction off this weekend to raise money to repay the victims of Bernard L. Madoff’s vast Ponzi scheme. [nytimes]

    Washington Bans Caffeinated Alcoholic Drinks – The ban, enacted by the Washington State Liquor Control Board, follows one imposed last week in Michigan. Several other states have moved to restrict sales of the drinks, which include Four Loko, a fruit-flavored malt beverage that has an alcohol content of 12 percent. They say it’s a ‘toxic and dangerous brew,’ which may be true. But not so for me, when using Pussy Natural Energy drink. [nytimes]

    What Your Baby Remembers – Scientists who study infant memory are gathering around the idea that not only are babies not forgetful, but under the right circumstances, they can form memories that last for incredibly long periods of time. And even though when they grow up they might not consciously remember their diapered days, the memories that children form in the first years may actually be the ones with the greatest impact on their lives.
