Model shows crash impact on pregnant women
Ford, Virginia Tech and Wake Forest are teaming to create a computer-aided model of a pregnant woman for virtual crash test simulations. The model would help safety researchers better understand how skeletal structures, internal organs and the brain are affected by crash forces. Researchers Virginia Tech and Wake Forest have nearly completed three years of preliminary research to compile data about pregnant women and their developing babies, such as abdominal shape and tissue properties.

Need a new shirt? Hit the Lamborghini shop
You used to have to travel Beijing to ensconce yourself in all things Lamborghini, but now that a second Automobili Lamborghini boutique has opened just outside of Los Angeles it's much easier to get its "glamorous and exclusive" gear. The shop, at the Westfield Topanga shopping center, sells items from the Collezione fashion line, including men's, women's and kid's clothes and accessories, as well as Lamborghini-crested t-shirts, sweatshirts and accessories.
