I didn't make this one up! From Modern Mechanix:
"With the aid of the "gnathograph," an instrument as mouth-filling as its name, a dentist's patients may now be assured of a perfect fit for artificial teeth. Fitted to the jaws as shown above, the new device registers the arrangement of the teeth and the direction of the "bite," to guide the dentist in straightening teeth or fitting inlays, crowns, bridges, and plates. Its inventor, Dr. Beverly B. McCollum of Los Angeles, Calif., demonstrates in the picture [below] how the instrument is then mounted for use in tooling a plate to just the right shape to give the most comfortable fit in the mouth."

Saudi women in U.S. seek segregation on Facebook
Image by Kawetijoru via Flickr"JEDDAH: A 22,000-member group for Saudis studying in the US on the social networking website Facebook has been split into two groups, one for women and one for men. The split follows a request from the group’s female members who wanted extra privacy.
“The separate page for Saudi women is a valid decision. We took it to fulfill the wishes of the Saudi women in the US. We have been contacted by a lot of women asking for their private group,” Majed Aleid, media chair of the “Saudis in the US” group, told Arab News in a letter."
This is just sad beyond belief. Why even bother coming to the U.S.?
