I feel sorry for that stock. I know what it's like--like in the old song, "You Took My Heart and Stomped That Sucker Flat." That feeling of neglect.

Somebody needs to start a new mutual fund, named "Animal Shelter," to buy up all the abandoned dogs and cats.

Electronic bra stops breasts bouncing and keeps them warm

A Californian man has invented an electronic bra that will stop sportswomen's breasts bouncing and keep them warm.

Michael Pottenger from Santa Monica says the bra is fitted with electronic underwiring which the wearer can manipulate.

He says a two-way switch will allow women to control the rigidness of the bra and the movement of their breasts.

Mr Pottenger says piezoelectric strips are woven into the cups. When the switch is activated electricity goes to a resistor which stiffens the bra's cups.

This steadies the movement of the breasts and warms them up, the New Scientist reports.

The switch may also power separate piezo strips to more actively counteract breast movement.
