NEC LaVie Y brings Lenovo's 360-degree IdeaPad Yoga hybrid tablet to Japan
Don't think that Lenovo is keeping the IdeaPad Yoga's bendy secrets all to itself: its Japanese partner NEC is bringing a variant of the ARM-based Yoga 11 to the land of the rising sun as the LaVie Y. The 11.6-inch blend of laptop and tablet keeps the signature 360-degree display, 2GB of RAM and 64GB of storage as its more internationally-minded counterpart, and confirms that there's a quad-core Tegra 3 powering either of the Windows RT systems. What differences exist will stem from the software: there's hints of a custom NEC app on an otherwise vanilla interpretation of Microsoft's platform. The LaVie Y should precede its IdeaPad sibling by days, arriving in stores around November 22nd, although any local buyers will pay dearly for the privilege with an estimated $1,136 price. We'd suggest that patience ought to be a virtue for everyone else.
[Thanks, Gerald]

Attack kills 4 Pakistani Shiite pilgrims in Iraq
BAGHDAD (AP) ? Iraqi officials say four Pakistani Shiite pilgrims heading to a shrine in central Iraq died in an attack on their bus.
Salahuddin provincial police say Friday's attack involved a roadside bomb that struck the pilgrim's bus near the town of Balad.
After the bomb exploded, gunmen opened fire on the bus from the roadside. Balad is 55 kilometers (50 miles) north of Baghdad.
Police say 14 people on the bus, including the Iraqi driver and the guide, were wounded in the attack. Medics at a nearby hospital confirmed the casualties. They spoke on condition of anonymity because they are not authorized to talk to the media.
Violence is down from 2006-2008, when Iraq seemed close to civil war. But deadly attacks against security forces and Shiite pilgrims are still frequent.

Electronic Tweezers Grab Nanoparticles
MTorrice writes "A beam of electrons can pick up and carry nanoparticles, according to a new study (abstract). The so-called electronic tweezers could help scientists in diverse tasks, such as building up new materials nanoparticle-by-nanoparticle, and measuring the forces between nanoparticles and living cells, the researchers say. In the past, scientists have manipulated microsized particles, including single cells, using a beam of laser light called optical tweezers. But the force required to trap a particle with optical tweezers increases as the particle gets smaller, making grappling with nanoparticles difficult. Researchers at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory developed an alternative to optical tweezers by modifying a transmission electron microscope, which produces images by passing a stream of electrons through a sample." Reader Sven-Erik adds news of a tractor beam generated with laser light that can pull microscopic particles over distances of 30 micrometers (abstract).
