(Reuters) - Puerto Rican residents lost a bid on Tuesday to force the U.S. government to recognize the health effects on the local population of testing of weapons and experimenting with chemicals on the island of Vieques for decades. A U.S. appeals court in Boston ruled that the federal government has immunity from any lawsuit over its actions. For about six decades after World War II, the U.S. Navy used a portion of Vieques as a weapons-testing ground and firing range, detonating bombs and experimenting with chemicals from napalm to Agent Orange and depleted uranium. ... - Kim Auisp

TALLAHASSEE, Florida (Reuters) - A measure to turn over nearly a third of Florida's prisons to private for-profit corporations died in a nail-biting vote in the state senate on Tuesday. In a stinging defeat to leaders of the Republican-led state Senate, a proposal to privatize at least 27 south Florida facilities was defeated by a coalition of Republicans and Democrats who said the promised 7 percent savings was uncertain and the cost to nearly 3,800 state workers too high. The vote was 19-21. ... - Kim Auisp

Since Tim Cook took over at Apple last year shortly before the death of Steve Jobs, not a great deal has been heard from the man at the top. But on Tuesday the new CEO appeared on stage at the Goldman Sachs Technology and Internet Conference in San Francisco to take part in a wide-ranging discussion about the company, its current situation and where it’s heading. The event gave observers an opportunity to get to know the new CEO a little better and find out more about his plans for the tech giant. - Kim Auisp

Little Deviants isn’t so much a game as it is a series of demos that allow you to see what the Vita can do. If ever there comes a time when we return to the days of new hardware including a game, Little Deviants should be the game with the Vita. - Kim Auisp

Of all the launch day titles for the Vita, few push the hardware’s GPU quite as much as Wipeout 2048. Visually, it is impressive. The graphics themselves are around the level of late PS2, maybe very early PS3 games, but the impressive part is the detail you can see in the backgrounds while burning through futuristic cities. It is a sight. - Kim Auisp

Michael Jackson: The Experience is a game for fans of Jacko. That might seem somewhat obvious, but it is truer than you might think. The previous incarnation of this game for the consoles was a dancing game, so even if you were only a mild fan of Jackson, you could still get into the dancing mechanics of the game. You didn’t need to even have a familiarity with the music to get some enjoyment out of it. Like the 3DS version before it, the Vita version is different. - Kim Auisp

(Reuters) - New York City's pension funds should boost investment in local transportation, power and communications projects to create badly needed new jobs, the city's Public Advocate Bill de Blasio recommended on Tuesday. "We are leaving resources on the table that we should be putting to work right here in the five boroughs," de Blasio, who is expected to run for mayor in 2013, said in a statement. ... - Kim Auisp
