Red-light special




Red-light special: In a wrinkle on the radar detector, a new gadget warns drivers when they approach a red-light camera.

The device comes with a manufacturer's warning: “This unit may be subject to severe overheating if used in Lynnwood, Washington.”

Nobody could have predicted: The scale and scope of the nation's housing bust shocks even the director of the Joint Center for Housing Studies at Harvard University.

The Buzz assumes the professor remains hard at work on his academic papers entitled, “Honest, We Really Thought Real Estate Values Would Increase By 20% a Year Forever,” and “That Unemployed Guy Who Got a $500,000 Mortgage Seemed Like a Decent Chap.”

The day the music died: A new book that examines the breakup of the Beatles tries to pin down exactly when the Fab Four began to go their separate ways.

It could have been with the death of manager Brian Epstein, or it could have been the launch of the litigation-plagued Apple record label, or it could have been when Paul insisted on recording “Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da” … ah, the heck with all that. Just blame Yoko and call it good.
