The first thing Erin Wood wants her baby to know is that Dad, Brian, died to save their lives. “. . . In his final act he did the only thing that would save us,” said Wood, 31. With an out-of-control Chevy Blazer bearing down on him, the 33-year old North Vancouver man braked and swerved his Subaru wagon so that he would take the force of the head-on collision, saving his wife of five years, pregnant with their first baby..

Over the weekend, we noticed Craiglist had replaced a certain notorious section of its site with a black bar reading censored.A longtime and well-known digital resource for prostitutes and the people who engage their services, Craigslist has come under fire many times over the past few years for its erotic/adult classified ads. Craigslist has stated it does everything it can to comply with government and legal stipulations and has an attorney manually screen all of its Adult Services ads. The company once said that 700,000 ads were manually rejected in just one year.Still, this hasnt stopped sex trafficking on the site, nor has it stopped the site from coming under harsh criticism for its business.In a recent poll, we asked if you thought Craigslists Adult Services section should be censored. Here are the results.Our readers are surprisingly liberal-minded about the Adult Services section. The vast majority of you (71.37%) said you thought the site should not be censored for a variety of reasons:Among our readers who thought the site should be censored, two-thirds found the Adult Services section objectionable because they felt it allowed Craigslist to profit indirectly from prostitution.Of those who thought the site and the adult sections should remain uncensored, almost half of you (46.15%) felt the censorship was unwarranted because prostitution should not be illegal in the first place. These broad-minded folks comprise almost 33% of everyone who voted in the poll.Others who were against the censorship in this case thought that Craigslists anti-prostitution policies were sufficient or stated another reason for opposing Adult Services censorship.As of this moment, were not sure if or when the sites adult section will be back online or why it was taken down in the first place. While prostitution isnt likely to become legal in the U.S. any time soon, well keep you posted on Craigslists dilemma as more details become available.More About: censorship, craigslist, prostitution, sexFor more Social Media coverage:Follow Mashable Social Media on TwitterBecome a Fan on FacebookSubscribe to the Social Media channelDownload our free apps for iPhone and iPad

Elephant goes bonkers...kills a man...

Comics are known to sometimes be nothing more than soap operas with thought bubbles, but sometimes the stories can get seriously dumb.

For disillusioned Obama supporters, the ACLU's July report "Establishing the New Normal" is not a heartening read. After being voted into office on promises that included undoing abuses carried out under the Bush administration - promises to protect privacy, to end government-sanctioned torture and rendition programs and to end the use of military commissions for non-enemy combatants - President Obama's administration is proving it is far easier to tow the line than buck a trend.

An 80-year-old Minnesota man is facing felony charges after a marijuana raid, with police claiming he is the leader of a what they called a "large-scale grow operation." Welcome to the world of American drug enforcement, where an old man tending a few plants -- at least some of which he had apparently given names -- passes through the Drug War looking glass and becomes magically transformed into a major grow-op.

Oh, sure -- a few people have called Google's Nexus One a "superphone," but suddenly, that nickname has taken on a whole new level of meaning. A team of talent from MIT has put its head down in order to concoct a new Android application that can come darn close to solving complex computational problems in just a fraction of the time that it'd take a bona fide supercomputer. The goal here is to let researchers and scientists convert to Google's mobile OS, but if you aren't falling for that one, it's also designed to "let engineers perform complicated calculations in the field, and to better control systems for vehicles or robotic systems." Of course, the models that are hosted on the phone do require a supercomputer to create, but once certain formulas are embedded, the app can then compute approximations in mere seconds rather than hours. Best of all, rbAPPmit is available for download as well speak in the source link below, but we'd probably wait for the (presumably thick) user guide to surface before diving in headfirst.
