Organized Crime: is any crime committed by more than one person (or maybe even a hyperorganized German, like me...) Well, according to the motion picture/recording industry, that's organized crime.

Phone Home: A cell phone for the elderly is being developed which slows down speech, and it comes with the added safety device of an alarm that will go off in case the old person falls over. I'm sure this has been patented, since everything seems to be- including a noisy operating interface, patented by Microsoft.

Once again, Slate's explainer clues me in: this time, it explains what the black boxes on the Israeli settlers heads are. It also links to an article on an Arab party trying to sue the Israeli settlers for usurping their color (orange.)
