Ray-J goes in on Fab about Fight in Vegas! Calls Fab Broke!! Also Fabs response..
Ray-J calls in on the Breakfest Club and Goess In.....
Fabolous Addresses Ray J Altercation With DJ Clue [Audio]
Fabolous Adresses Ray J Dustup, Says No Fight Occurred
Fabolous finally broke his silence regarding the alleged "fight" with Ray J and managed to sting the singer with the same banter that angered him from the beginning. The Brooklyn rapper phoned in to homey DJ Clue's Power 105 evening show dismissing all counts of a physical altercation with Ray J. According to Fab, he was caught by surprise at the singer's allegations during his radio interview and maintains that he was never punched, a claim Ray J boasted about.
"Who called in, Tupac?" Fab joked about Ray J's tirade on the morning show. "Tupac called in? That wasn't Ray J. You can't be serious. That wasn't Ray J. That wasn't him. That wasn't Willy Norwood Jr. That wasn't him. That wasn't Brandy brother."
During his conversation with Clue, Fab took a much more relaxed, calm approach noting that he doesn't take Ray J's threats serious at all but isn't quite happy with how the singer handled the situation in Vegas either.
Fabolous gave his account of the story where in his mind the issues stemmed from a few jokes he made about Ray J on Twitter. In a recent episode of Floyd Mayweather's "24/7" HBO show Ray J is highlighted singing in the living room section of Floyd's home. The clip drew a few rounds of laughs from Fab and others that at first appeared to be all fun. Initially Fab ran into Ray J at a dinner thrown by mogul Diddy that was also attended by comedian Kevin Hart. The collective all shared laughs over the ordeal and went on their separate ways but Fab's next occurrence with Ray J was less jovial.
Floyd Mayweather Jr. Buys 50 Cent $20,000 Watch
While preparing for a show at the luxurious Palms hotel Fab again crossed paths with Ray J, this time flanked by 50 Cent and the freshly minted champ, Floyd Mayweather whom Ray J refers to as "The Money Team." Fab claims an amped up Ray J was still reeling over the earlier jokes and began to get testy with him before he snatched him up by his red hoody, but no fight occurred.
"It was no fight, it was no swing" Fab maintains. "This whole story that he made up, that Tupac rant about him swinging on somebody and all of that s--t is all lies. Its all, high on coke, on that Whitney. That's all on that Whitney last night. Ain't no swings take place. You can ask the Money Team. The Money Team was standing right there. Ask the Money Team that hes probably the water boy for" Fab joked referring to 50 and Floyd.
In his interview Ray J claims that he bruised Fab after delivering a blow to the face but according to Fab aside from a lost pair of sunglasses at no point was he ever hurt. In the aftermath of Ray J's threatening interview this morning show host Clue asked Fab if he was interested in squashing the situation.
"There's nothing to squash" Fab responded. "We can progress in our own ways. He can go his way and I can go my way. He can continue playing the piano at Floyd's crib if he wants and i'll continue to do what I do and he can continue to do concerts in ni--as living rooms all he wants."
Fabolous is currently still in Vegas and says he plans to turn his attention towards the music to vent his frustration. Before departing the interview he warned that he may "get into more trouble" with making a few comments on Twitter about the situation.
"#TwitterPSA - If you have money but you're a lame it doesn't make you COOL or REAL.. You're just a LAME wit MONEY!" Fab tweeted after the interview holding true to his word" Fab tweeted after the interview.

Toshiba Develops No-Glasses 3D TV
Come this December, Toshiba will will start selling what would be the world's first 3-D televisions that work without forcing viewers to put on special - or goofy, as the case may be - glasses to enjoy the full experience.
Toshiba offered a first look at its new flat panel television during the Ceatec technology conference taking place this week in Japan. the liquid crystal display TVs flatpanels will be available in 12- and 20-inch versions. The cost will range between the equivalent of $1,400 and $2,800. Unfortunately, this very cool and groovy-sounding product is only going to be sold in Japan for the time being. No word yet on Toshiba's plans to introduce the product to overseas markets.
If it works as advertised, the new technology may help accelerate the adoption of 3D televisions. With the exception of tech hipsters and early adopters, most consumers have shied away from buying 3d televisions because of the cost and hassle of using special viewing glasses.
According to Toshiba, the special sauce is "an integral imaging system" that offers "nine different perspectives (parallaxes) of each single 2D frame which the viewer's brain superimposes to create a 3-dimensional impression of the image." The company says it also developed "a powerful engine and an algorithm to extrapolate these perspectives out of the 2D frame and used a perpendicular lenticular sheet, an array of lenses, that enable the viewer's brain to superimpose the perspectives."
The project had been rumored to be underway for months.
Scientist find 16 New Super Earth (planets with possible life)
(But Its 36 Light Years Away From Us)
Astronomers using ESO’s world-leading exoplanet hunter HARPS have today announced a rich haul of more than 50 new exoplanets, including 16 super-Earths, one of which orbits at the edge of the habitable zone of its star. By studying the properties of all the HARPS planets found so far, the team has found that about 40% of stars similar to the Sun have at least one planet lighter than Saturn.
The HARPS spectrograph on the 3.6-metre telescope at ESO’s La Silla Observatory in Chile is the world’s most successful planet finder [1]. The HARPS team, led by Michel Mayor (University of Geneva, Switzerland), today announced the discovery of more than 50 new exoplanets orbiting nearby stars, including sixteen super-Earths [2]. This is the largest number of such planets ever announced at one time [3]. The new findings are being presented at a conference on Extreme Solar Systems where 350 exoplanet experts are meeting in Wyoming, USA.
“The harvest of discoveries from HARPS has exceeded all expectations and includes an exceptionally rich population of super-Earths and Neptune-type planets hosted by stars very similar to our Sun. And even better — the new results show that the pace of discovery is accelerating,” says Mayor.
In the eight years since it started surveying stars like the Sun using the radial velocity technique HARPS has been used to discover more than 150 new planets. About two thirds of all the known exoplanets with masses less than that of Neptune [4] were discovered by HARPS. These exceptional results are the fruit of several hundred nights of HARPS observations [5].
Working with HARPS observations of 376 Sun-like stars, astronomers have now also much improved the estimate of how likely it is that a star like the Sun is host to low-mass planets (as opposed to gaseous giants). They find that about 40% of such stars have at least one planet less massive than Saturn. The majority of exoplanets of Neptune mass or less appear to be in systems with multiple planets.
With upgrades to both hardware and software systems in progress, HARPS is being pushed to the next level of stability and sensitivity to search for rocky planets that could support life. Ten nearby stars similar to the Sun were selected for a new survey. These stars had already been observed by HARPS and are known to be suitable for extremely precise radial velocity measurements. After two years of work, the team of astronomers has discovered five new planets with masses less than five times that of Earth.
“These planets will be among the best targets for future space telescopes to look for signs of life in the planet’s atmosphere by looking for chemical signatures such as evidence of oxygen,” explains Francesco Pepe (Geneva Observatory, Switzerland), the lead author of one of the recent papers.
One of the recently announced newly discovered planets, HD 85512 b, is estimated to be only 3.6 times the mass of the Earth [6] and is located at the edge of the habitable zone — a narrow zone around a star in which water may be present in liquid form if conditions are right [7].
“This is the lowest-mass confirmed planet discovered by the radial velocity method that potentially lies in the habitable zone of its star, and the second low-mass planet discovered by HARPS inside the habitable zone,” adds Lisa Kaltenegger (Max Planck Institute for Astronomy, Heidelberg, Germany and Harvard Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, Cambridge, USA), who is an expert on the habitability of exoplanets.

Back to the Future Sneakers..Marty McFly's Air Mag Sneakers Are Real
Just 22 years after we first saw a glimpse of the shoe of the future, Nike has at last made the Air Mag, the self-lacing, light-up sneaker worn by Marty McFly in Back to the Future II. It’s not the first BTTF shoe Nike has made, but its certainly the one closest to the movie-prop original, and was designed to be an exact replica.
So, how do you get your hands (or feet) on this awesome piece of movie history (or future)? You’d better be prepared to spend some cash. Nike is auctioning off 1,500 pairs of Air Mags on eBay, with the profits going to the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s research. Prominent Googlers Sergey Brin and Anne Wojcicki have put up $50 million, with which they’ll match all donations.
