First Test Tube Penguin Born

Penguin "184" was hatched at San Diego Sea World.

The chick was hatched 12 weeks ago and is the first penguin to be successfully produced through artificial insemination.

This technology could greatly help the penguin, which, due to oil spills, is considered a "near threatened" species.

It is also intended to increase genetic diversity in captive penguin populations.

Light Shown on Black Seadevil

The Black Seadevil, a type of anglerfish, was caught on camera at a depth of 1,900 feet.

This is significant, as this fish has been seen only a dozen times and even less often alive.

Anglerfish are known for their famous "light bulb" attachment.

The ocean is filled with mysteries.

Controller Draws Blood

A new device, called Bloodsport, draws actual blood anytime the user is shot in the video game.

The aim of this product is to amp up blood donations and to make gaming more of a challenge.

The device measures how much blood has already been taken to ensure that 'it powers off before you do."

Thus far, only $3,000 of the $25,000 needed to kick start the project has been raised.

Santa Drops a Yule Log

Poo-Pourri, a toilet deodorizing company, is kicking off the holiday season with a new ad, featuring Santa in his natural state.

In the ad, Santa decides to relieve himself in a British home he has just delivered presents to.

The smell emanating from the bathroom is enough to wake the girls of the house up, who come into the bathroom to find Santa sitting on the toilet.

Clearly, Santa needs some Poo-Pourri.
