LOTD for June 4

Study found that both men and women are MUCH less happy in their relationship when the woman earns more money than the man, leading to a sharp increase in divorces.  This result is consistent with a previous study that found that women prefer men to be intelligent and ambitious.  Men prefer women to be intelligent and ambitious...but only if their wives earn less than them.  I don't understand why the men surveyed feel this way--I hope Lori makes more than me soon!

Cameras with a new sensor will be able to take clear and sharp photos in dim light (1000x more sensitive to light than current cameras) while using 10x less battery and cost 5x less:
