Carriers Reject a 'Kill Switch' For Preventing Cellphone Theft - NYTimes.com: "Mr. Gascón said that, based on e-mails he had reviewed between a Samsung executive and a software developer, it appeared that the carriers were unwilling to allow Samsung to load the antitheft software. The emails, he said, suggest that the carriers are concerned that the software would eat into the profit they make from the insurance programs many consumers buy to cover lost or stolen phones. “Corporate profits cannot be allowed to guide decisions that have life-or-death consequences,” Mr. Gascón said. “This solution has the potential to safeguard Samsung customers, but these emails suggest the carriers rejected it so they can continue to make money hand over fist on insurance premiums.”"
The Federal Communications Commission chairman, Tom Wheeler, said the agency will move the nation’s century-old network of circuits, switches and wires toward an Internet-based system.--
F.C.C. Chairman Calls for Transforming the Technology Used by Phone Systems - NYTimes.com: "“This is what I call the Fourth Network Revolution,” Mr. Wheeler wrote. “History has shown that new networks catalyze innovation, investment, ideas and ingenuity. Their spillover effects can transform society — think of the creation of industrial organizations and the standardized time zones that followed in the wake of the railroad and telegraph.” The transition from the old system, known as time-division multiplexing, to Internet protocol communication, or I.P., is both symbolic and substantive. Millions of Americans already have I.P.-based telephone service, which transmits packets of data and carries larger amounts of that data than is possible with the old system."
Google Delivers Giant Packs of Toilet Paper, Just in Time for the Holidays | Wired Business | Wired.com: "Target was an inaugural partner with Google Shopping Express. The addition of Costco means Google now has the third and fourth largest U.S. retailers on its platform (Walmart is number one; Kroger is number two). Together, Target and Costco had more than $140 billion in U.S. sales last year, far exceeding Amazon’s. For Google, joining with these brick-and-mortar stalwarts is a much quicker way to scale up selection compared to building warehouses and buying inventory itself, as Amazon does. This leaves Google free to focus all its energy on perfecting the logistics of same-day delivery — the kind of number-crunching at which it excels. Google may never beat Amazon at its own game. But selling toilet paper by the case could give Google the practice it needs to become a particularly pesky antagonist."

DNA indicates Eurasian roots for Native Americans, new study says
Washington Post
The genetic analysis of a 24,000-year-old arm bone of an ancient Siberian boy suggests that Native Americans have a more complicated ancestry than scientists had previously realized, with some of their distant kin looking more Eurasian than East Asian.
