Today's Story Highlights

Huawei's Fast-Charging Batteries Could Solve Power Users' Problems
Huawei Technologies last week unveiled lithium-ion batteries that
recharge in minutes rather than hours. The batteries, developed by
Huawei's Watt Lab, recharge 10 times faster than their competitors and
can reach 50 percent capacity in two to five minutes, the company said.
Huawei demonstrated two models at the 56th Battery Symposium in Japan
last week.

Google+ Tries On New Social Media Identity
Google has reintroduced its Google+ social network with major revisions
to its look and feel, as part of a last ditch effort to make the
struggling site a player in a much deeper and more crowded landscape.
The site has undergone a major redesign that takes away some of the
bloat that slowed down the navigation process, the company said. Its new
focus is to serve as a virtual gathering place.

Microsoft Retools Minecraft to Teach Kids to Code
Microsoft on Monday announced that its Mojang unit's Minecraft will star
in Code.org's third annual Hour of Code event in December. A 2-D
tutorial version of Minecraft will introduce players ages 6 and older to
simple coding, encouraging them to mine and craft by using visual
programming, Microsoft said. Players then can engage in a bundle of 14
challenges to reinforce what they've learned.

ISIS Mocks Anonymous' War Declaration
ISIS has rebuffed the declaration of cyberwar Anonymous issued. "The
#Anonymous hackers threatened in new video release that they will carry
out a major hack operation on the Islamic state (idiots)," reads a
message posted in a Telegram channel believed to be affiliated with ISIS
hackers. "What they gonna hack," it continues. "All what they can do is
hacking Alansar twitter accounts, emails etc."
