Today's Story Highlights

Apple Springs Bevy of New Products at Watch Event
The Apple Watch wasn't the only new product to take the stage at Apple's
Monday media event -- Apple also introduced an all-new sleek MacBook. In
addition, Apple nabbed the chance to be the exclusive launch partner for
HBO's new streaming subscription service. Among the event highlights:
Apple Watch will be available for preorder April 10, sale April 24; and
Apple Watch Edition starts at $10,000.

Private, Public Teamwork Needed to Fight ISIS on Twitter: Report
Social media firms should team up with the U.S. government to work out
appropriate responses to extremism on their sites, recommends a
Brookings Institution report. J.M. Berger and Jonathon Morgan last year
launched a study to define and describe the population of ISIS
supporters on Twitter. They found that ISIS ramped up efforts on Twitter
following the suspension of many supporters' accounts.

Hillary Clinton's Possibly Fatal Email Mistake
Hillary Clinton's email scandal showcases that she shouldn't be
president. This has nothing to do with her party or politics -- it has
to do with how she seems to approach a decision -- through tunnel vision
leadership. This method isn't biased on the left or right, but it is
more hardwired into men than women. Unfortunately, Clinton seems to have
this in spades.

Precision Laser Weapon Scorches Mile-Away Truck Engine
Lockheed Martin this week conducted a test of its ATHENA laser system.
The successful demonstration attests to just how far directed energy
weapons technology has come. Boring clean through the engine of a truck
mounted on a platform more than a mile away, ATHENA decommissioned the
running vehicle in a matter of seconds. The technology is now ready for
wider adoption.
