A big asteroid will be passing by our planet tonight. The asteroid is 650 metres in diametre (more than 3x the size of the tallest building in Vancouver, Shangri-la!). But have no fear, it will pass about 1.8-million km away (that’s about 4x to 5x the distance between earth and the moon).

Do “brain games” actually improve cognitive function? A new study says don’t waste your money.

It's Week 2 and the Site C dam is the focus.  Liberals say it's past the point of no return, Greens would cancel it (but haven't given any details) and the NDP plan is still a question.  The Vancouver Sun's Vaughn Palmer is here with his take on the day's headlines.

A new Facebook function will let you use your camera (on your smartphone) in order to have resources at your finger-tips instantly...thanks to augmented reality.  Tim Dickert has the tech report.

A day after BC Liberal leader Christy Clark campaigned at the Site C dam touting its job creation, a trio of UBC scientists are out with a report that says the project is no longer economically viable, and it recommends construction be suspended immediately and it be reviewed by the BC Utilities Commission, something BC NDP leader John Horgan says he'd do if he wins the May 9th election.  The report found alternate options for generating electricity like wind power and energy conservation have become cheaper and BC Hydro's predicted demand for electricity has dropped significantly.

BC Liberal Leader Christy Clark says not only is the BC NDP plan to get rid of tolls expensive and irresponsible, but her party claims there are hidden costs the NDP is not talking about.

Specifically, the BC Liberals say eliminating tolls would threaten B.C.’s AAA credit rating.

But, how true is it?
