"U.S. researchers have demonstrated a form of plastic computer memory that uses the spin of electrons to read and write data, computer experts say.

Scientists at Ohio State University see "spintronics" as an alternative to traditional microelectronics that could store more data in less space, process data faster and consume less power, a university release said.

Normal electronics encode computer data in a binary code of ones and zeros, depending on whether an electron is present or not in a void within the memory material.

But researchers have long known that electrons can be polarized to orient in particular directions, like the poles of a bar magnet. They refer to this orientation as either "spin up" or "spin down" and have been working on a way to store data using that spin. The resulting "spintronics" would store and transfer twice as much data per electron."

"Police in South Korea today raided Google offices in an investigation of the company's Street View mapping project, the latest instance of a country scrutinizing the company's collection of Wi-Fi data.

The Korean National Police said in a statement that they have launched an investigation into unauthorized data collection and illegal wiretapping.

Google officials in London confirmed the raid. "We will cooperate with the investigation and answer any questions they have," the company said in a statement."

"The brain appears to be a vastly interconnected network much like the Internet, according to new research.

That runs counter to the 19th-Century "top-down" view of brain structure.

A novel technique to track signals across tiny brain regions has revealed connections between regions associated with stress, depression and appetite.

The research, in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, may lead to a full map of the nervous system."

"Indian officials are assessing the environmental impact of an oil spill from a tanker collision off Mumbai, after the leak stopped on day three.

About 500 tonnes of oil is thought to have flowed from the MSC Chitra after it crashed with another Panamanian-registered ship on Saturday.

There are fears for marine life and ecology along the Mumbai coastline and the Arabian Sea.

Officials said it would take a month to bring the spill fully under control.

A team from the Netherlands has been called in to help pump out the 2,200 litres (480 gallons) of oil thought to remain inside the ship."
