My Los Gatos estate for your Facebook shares, Silicon Valley exec says

For the select few with a fistful of Facebook shares to spread around, an 11.5 acre estate and its 10,000 square foot house can be had for around $29 million in pre-IPO Facebook shares. Owner Ken Raasch says he's downsizing after 15 years living in it with his family, and hopes a "stock rich, cash poor" shareholder in the social networking company will make a deal.

Despite its serene appearance when viewed from Earth, the energy produced from the Sun is so strong that every second its core releases the equivalent of 100 billion nuclear bombs. The next time you’re cloud watching, ponder this: by studying the skies, you are essentially staring into history. Why? The light you presently enjoy travels from distant stars and galaxies takes hundreds, thousands and sometimes millions of years to reach us. While Mercury is the closest planet to the Sun, its temperatures can reach a biting -280 degrees Fahrenheit as Mercury lacks the atmospheric pressure necessary to trap heat. Venus, on the other hand, has a thick atmosphere to trap heat and is markedly hotter than Mercury, despite being farther away from the sun. If you are ever lucky or wealthy enough to gallivant to the moon, you can expect your presence to remain much longer than anticipated. As there is no air or wind on the moon, your footprints are likely to last forever (barring a meteoric collision, of course).
