"Since I Mentioned Bluetooth Dept.: The technology is finding use as a way to keep from losing children at the zoo—specifically, the Ålborg Zoo in Denmark. The zoo lets you put dog tags on your kids, and the areawide Bluetooth system keeps tabs on them. Information concerning the whereabouts of a lost child is passed via SMS on parents' cell phones. This technology could come in handy at Toys "R" Us, since the company redesigned its stores with aisles like labyrinths, in which losing kids is easy. Eventually, of course, Bluetooth will be used to locate everyone so those black helicopters can find you effortlessly." John Dvorak

MALAYSIA TO BAN DIVORCE VIA TEXT MESSAGING
Malaysian men may no longer notify their wives that they're divorcing them via e-mail or text messaging, according to an Islamic court ruling last week. The practice had gained in popularity in some Islamic countries in recent years, with some religious authorities sanctioning it. According to Islamic law, a husband can divorce his wife simply by declaring his intention to do so and then repeating that desire before a religious law judge. (The procedure for wives is much more difficult.) Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad said that while text messaging is not explicitly prohibited under Malaysia's current laws, "it is not the way to get divorced." Abdul Hamid Othman, the government's official religious adviser, added, "Husbands should not be allowed to freely use SMS (text messaging) and other easy methods such as e-mails, voicemail or even facsimile to begin divorce proceedings. We must put a stop to it as it is morally wrong and unacceptable to society." (AP 31 Jul 2003) http://apnews.excite.com/article/20030731/D7SKO2FG1.html
