A new way to make cubic zirconia with very small crystal sizes could be key to making hydrogen fuel cells more reliable and cost-effective.

The invention by a team led by Zuhair Munir, distinguished professor of chemical engineering and materials science at UC Davis, was recently included in Nanotech Briefs magazine's Nano50 awards for 2007. The awards recognize technologies, products and people most likely to impact the state of the art in nanotechnology.

The lawsuit, filed by brothers Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss, and Divya Narendra, accuses Zuckerberg, Facebook's 23-year-old C.E.O, of stealing the source code, design, and business plan for Facebook in 2003 when he briefly worked in the Harvard dorms as a programmer for their own fledgling social-networking site, now known as ConnectU.

The plaintiffs have demanded that Facebook be shut down and that full control of the site - and its profits - be turned over to them.

I've tried teas, medication, milk, calcium supplements, going to bed early, going to bed late, hot shower, cold shower, etc. etc. Nothing seems to work. And I had a really bad experience with one of the medications awhile back. I hated the feeling of being forced into sleep, so I forced myself to stay awake through the effects of the pill. OMG, bad bad.

Anyway, I'm going to give Melatonin a try and see if it helps.
