A facial recognition app out of Russia is raising eyebrows, both because of its abilities and the privacy concerns it sparks. The app, FindFace, involves users submitting photos-- for example, of someone they saw on the street and might like to be able to contact. Then, the app searches a Russian social network called Vkontakte to look for a match with a reported accuracy of about 70 percent among the millions of accounts. It's even performed better than Google at a competition called MegaFace. While some have praised the app for its ability to make successful matches-- law enforcement and casinos are said to be interested in the tech-- others have privacy concerns.

United Parcel Service and FedEx Corp. are having a hard time keeping up with holiday shipping volumes that have "blown past expectations," writes The Wall Street Journal. And the delayed delivery of millions of orders could rapidly become the Cyber Grinch that stole this Christmas. Meanwhile, back at the Santa's workshop located in Cambridge, U.K., Amazon has apparently made its first customer delivery by drone. Also according to the Journal, the drone made the trip in about 13 minutes, well ahead of the promised 30 minute windows for its "Prime Air" drone delivery service.

Revealed: 'Natural thermostat' that cools the air in Earth's atmosphere during violent solar storms Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) release electrically charged plasma from the sun These also create shock waves similar to supersonic planes making sonic booms The shockwaves heat up and expand Earth's atmosphere However, they also cause nitric oxide to form, which cools it down again Strong solar activity, which includes CMEs, is known to damage satellites, cause power outages back on Earth, and even disrupt GPS navigation services The shockwaves heat up and expand Earth's atmosphere Researchers have pinpointed the'natural thermostat' that cools the air in Earth's upper atmosphere after violent solar storms.
