A Minnesota high school cheerleader has been arrested after police say she prostituted a teammate who has a developmental cognitive delay.
Montia Marie Parker, an 18-year-old senior at Hopkins High School in Minnetonka, was said to be popular among her classmates. Her future, however, is now on hold, pending the outcome of charges that were recently levied against her for sex trafficking and promoting prostitution.
“This particular situation is highly unusual for us. We’ve never had a situation like this before,” Chief Mark Raquet, of the Minnetonka Police Department, told The Huffington Post.
According to a copy of the criminal complaint provided to HuffPost by the Hennepin County Attorney’s Office, the investigation into Parker began on March 9, when the parent of a 16-year-old girl contacted local police and told them she found disturbing text messages on her daughter’s phone.

While we’re still scratching around with Ultrapixels and OIS, scientists in Singapore claim they’re working on something that could change the entire field of photography. Researchers at the Nanyang Technological University have developed an image sensor made out of graphene that’s 1,000 times better at capturing light than traditional CMOS or CCD sensors, all while using 10x less energy.

“Sharing is caring,” goes the old saying. But you may want to get a second opinion when the “caring” is done by a hospital, and the “sharing” is that same hospital scheming to siphon off part of your $300 million estate.
That’s the charge made in recently filed court documents involving Huguette Clark, a reclusive, extremely wealthy heiress who died in May 2011 at the age of 104 after having spent the last two decades of her life at Beth Israel Medical Center in Manhattan. Over the course of those 20 years, officials at the nonprofit hospital may have engaged in what The New York Times has termed “an all-out fundraising campaign” to extract donations from Clark.
Clark was originally admitted to the hospital in 1991 at the age of 85, after she was found emaciated and in poor health in her Fifth Avenue apartment. After receiving treatment for a skin cancer that had disfigured her face, reports the New York Post, she continued to stay in various rooms in the hospital, even though, court documents state, there was likely “no medical basis for keeping her.”

A Chinese newborn who was trapped in a sewer pipe moments after his birth has been released from hospital into the care of his grandparents. Local officials and media reports said Thursday that authorities have concluded it was an accident, meaning his unwed mother is unlikely to be criminally charged.
The baby’s stunning, two-hour rescue from a pipe underneath a squat toilet in Zhejiang province’s Pujiang county captivated the world, prompting both horror and an outpouring of charity on behalf of the boy, who was released from a hospital late Wednesday.
The boy’s maternal grandparents took him home and the mother remains under medical care, the state-run Jinhua Evening News reported, in an account confirmed by a local police official who declined to give his name when contacted by telephone. Earlier reports had said that the 22-year-old mother herself took the baby out of the hospital.

A new invisibility cloak for data can make information vanish by creating holes in time, new research suggests.
The researchers, who describe their work today (June 5) in the journal Nature, found that by tweaking the optical signals in telecommunications fibers, they created a way to essentially mask data sent between a sender and a receiver to outside observers. This isn’t the first time researchers have taken a page from Harry Potter: Last year, scientists also demonstrated a similar invisibility cloak.
But the new “time cloak” can create many time holes in rapid succession, which means masked data could be sent at commercial data speeds, said Martin McCall, a theoretical-optics researcher at Imperial College London who was not involved in the study.
.
Scientists demonstrate how they have have created, a new invisibility technique that doesn’t just cloak an object (like in Harry Potter books and movies), but masks an entire event. It is a time masker that works by briefly bending the speed of light around an event.

We’re not sure whether to be amazed or alarmed.
A “massive” coronal hole that rotated toward Earth from May 28-31 was one of the largest such holes NASA says it has observed all year.
The amazing part is that NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory was able to capture some spectacular ultraviolet footage of the hole in the sun’s corona. (Watch in the video above.)
The potentially alarming part?
Coronal holes (dark, cold areas in the sun’s outermost atmospheric layer) are the sources of solar winds — streams of charged particles that travel at more than 1 million mph and can cause auroras and geomagnetic storms (worldwide disturbances of the Earth’s magnetic field) when they reach our planet.

Smooth, round pebbles found by NASA’s Mars rover Curiosity provide more evidence that water once flowed on the Red Planet, according to a new study.
The Curiosity rover snapped pictures of several areas with densely packed pebbles, and by closely analyzing the rock images, researchers discovered that the shapes and sizes of the individual pebbles indicate that they traveled long distances in water, likely as part of an ancient riverbed.
The rocks were found near Curiosity’s landing site, between the north rim of Gale Crater and the base of Mount Sharp, a peak that rises 3 miles (5 kilometers) above the crater floor.
.
The Curiosity rover investigated an area on Mars named Hottah, which appears to be part of an ancient riverbed.

Two teen girls stabbed 16-year-old Skylar Neese to death and left her body on the side of a road because they didn’t want to be friends with her anymore.
That’s what Neese’s father Dave told CNN in a shocking new interview, which focused on the night Neese was lured out of her Star City, W.Va. home and killed. Her body was found months later.
Rachel Shoaf, 16, pleaded guilty last month to killing Neese on July 6, 2012 and an unidentified minor was arrested, but has not been tried yet.
When asked what he had to say to the two young suspects, Dave Neese didn’t hesitate.
“Rot in hell,” he said. “I want them to go through the pain and agony my daughter went through. I want them to have no life because Skylar doesn’t have one.”
Dave Neese said his daughter and her killers were “inseparable” friends. He said he was “sick” when he found out that the same girl who had asked him for updates in the search for his missing daughter had stabbed her and left her body under branches in a Pennsylvania township.

Authorities have recovered the body of Holly Fischer, a missing North Carolina woman whose car was found at the bottom on an 800-foot embankment Sunday night.
Investigators had been searching for Fischer since last week, when she left her parents’ home in Knox County, Tenn., presumably for her home in Charlotte, N.C.
“It is with unbearable sadness that we can confirm that she was not found alive. Our hearts are broken … We are all devastated to lose our beautiful daughter, sister and friend,” Fischer’s family said in a statement posted to a Facebook page created to share information on the case.
According to the Wilkes County Sheriff’s Office, a family friend who was searching for Fischer contacted authorities Sunday night and told he spotted car tracks going off the road in an area off N.C. 16 in Millers Creek, N.C.
