Virgin Mobiles --> Pink Slip Plan

Virgin Mobile announced a Pink Slip Protection plan that waives as many as three months of wireless phone charges if a customer is laid off. Many companies have been taking the economy into account with their advertising messages by telling consumers they feel their pain.

Virgin Mobile will pay as much as $90 a month for three months. It's only for monthly plans without annual contracts, you must be employed to enroll and you must be on a monthly plan for at least two months before claiming benefits.The wireless carrier is offering the Pink Slip plan in part because unemployment issues tend to affect its prepaid base more than its customers on annual plans.

Virgin Mobile also rolled out an unlimited text and messaging plan for $19.99. Customers can purchase that plan and pay 10 cents a minute for additional voice calls.Payments of $90 a month are not as significant as the hundreds of dollars a month the car companies might waive for people who get laid off. But the message Virgin Mobile is sending will resonate with consumers.

Is Mind Reading Possible?

The scientists demonstrate the ability to decode a person’s preference for one of two drinks with 80 per cent accuracy by measuring the intensity of near infrared light absorbed in brain tissue.

This new technique that uses infrared light brain imaging to decode preference with the goal of ultimately opening the world of choice to children who can’t speak or move.

“This is the first system that decodes preference naturally from spontaneous thoughts,”
After teaching the computer to recognize the unique pattern of brain activity associated with preference for each subject, the researchers accurately predicted which drink the participants liked best 80 per cent of the time.

Most brain-computer interfaces designed to read thoughts require training.
Wearing a headband fitted with fibre-optics that emit light into the pre-frontal cortex of the brain, they were shown two drinks on a computer monitor, one after the other, and asked to make a mental decision about which they liked more. “When your brain is active, the oxygen in your blood increases and depending on the concentration, it absorbs more or less light.”

“In some people, their brains are more active when they don’t like something, and in some people they’re more active when they do like something.”
