Senator Edward Kennedy Suffers From Seizure

Senator Edward M. Kennedy, the brother of the late President John F. Kennedy, has been hospitalized after suffering from a seizure. He was taken to Massachusetts General Hospital where doctors worked hard to try to find the cause of the seizure. He was flown to the Massachusetts General on Saturday after becoming sick and being treated in the emergency room of Cape Cod Hospital.

Luckily, he did not suffer from a stroke, as the physicians first thought and he is currently doing well. Over the next couple of days he will have more evaluations done on him to find the cause and what should be done to treat him.

By 2050 People Could Marry Robots

I read an article that says that by 2050 Massachusetts might be the first state to legalize marriage between humans and robots. The article says that people may be happier in marriages with a robot rather than another person. The article even says that it would be possible to have an intimate relationship with the robot. The article also says that being able to own a robot could decrease the criminal acts of rape, pedophilia, and sexual assault.

Woman Arrested Wearing Fake Bomb at Airport

In Boston a woman, named Star Simpson, was arrested at gunpoint after she walked into Logan International Airport wearing a fake bomb strapped to her chest. The fake bomb was made out of a computer circuit board, wiring, and Play-Doh putty.

A Massachusetts Port Authority official notified the police and troopers tracked Simpson down outside of Terminal C. She was arrested and it was determined the bomb was fake. Simpson is a 19 year old sophomore at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
