"  Welcome to PM/AM, PopMech&amp;#039;s morning briefing on the top science and tech stories for today. Read This Astronomers have found an asteroid with rings, and in space, that&amp;#039;s unusual. [via Wired] Relive the early days of the iPhone, one of the most transformative pieces of technology in the last decade. [via The Wall Street Journal] NVIDIA just made their handheld, the Shield, cheaper and better. [via Android Central] Watch This Arguably the most terrifying Cambrian predators, anomalocarids were 7 foot long ancient sea monsters that ruled the ocean depths. But a recent fossil discovery suggests that at least one species of anomalocarid was in fact docile and happy-go-lucky--ever burdened by the fearsome reputation of its closest relatives. [via Scientific American] Consider This Recently there&amp;#039;s been a push for Apple to diversify its emoji portfolio, primarily to create more racially diverse faces. This isn&amp;#039;t in reference to the Simpsons-style, jaundice-yellow emojis that most users are familiar with, but rather to the recent growth of symbols depicting specific races\u2014and mostly white ones. Of the currently 800 emoji characters, only two represent people other than caucasian. Suggestions from DoSomething.org, the website that originally posted the petition, was to use existing designs but just vary skin tone. Apple isn&amp;#039;t against diversifying, as it added same-sex couple emojis in 2006 for iOS 6. Maybe the safest bet would to go back to the benign yellow-face emojis of an earlier era that didn&amp;#039;t try to depict real races. Anyway, we are talking about a list of icons that includes a smiling turd, so Apple could probably stand to expand its offerings. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
