Pink Stuff: Little Girl In Toy Store Rails Against Gender Stereotypes (VIDEO)

Riley has an important message for all the toy makers and marketers out there: stop trying to force pink stuff on girls. They like other colors, too. And while you're at it, some girls like superheroes just as much, if not more, than princesses.

If you were looking to add some inspiration to your Christmas Eve, watch this little girl's impassioned speech against gender stereotypes in toy manufacturing. We only wish we had been this articulate and impassioned when we were her age.

Motorola Droid Xyboard 10.1 hands-on impressions (video)

Don't call it a comeback, it's a Xyboard -- Motorola's rebranded (for the US, anyway) Xoom 2. A 10.1-inch attempt at sidestepping the original Xoom's notoriety. With baked-in LTE of the Verizon variety, a slimmer waistline and a distinctive design, this Android 3.2 tablet could very well inject a dose of excitement back into the company's flagging category appeal. But with the spotlight-stealing ASUS Eee Pad Transformer Prime already on the map and dazzling consumers with its notebook-like functionality, will anyone even notice Moto's second swing at Honeycomb? Are LTE speeds and an improved silhouette enough to lure wayward users back into the company's willing embrace? Does anyone even care about non-Ice Cream Sandwich tablets? Read on as we explore the odd ends and angles of this curiously-shaped slate.

Apple's New Palo Alto Store Might Be the Best Yet [Apple]

Apple's retail spaces share a common design theme with the products they sell?focusing on minimalist accents and a clean, easy-to-navigate design (barring the swarming hordes of customers). The new "prototype" store under construction in Palo Alto promises to draw on the best ideas from Apple's decade in retail.

The new $3.15 million dollar storefront is being built just one block from the very first Apple Store and will borrow designs from other popular Apple outlets. The new two-story, 15,000 square foot, Palo Alto space will share the same curved-glass roof and other patented designs from the Upper West Side store. It will also employ a basement and rear mezzanine for storage and offices, a tactic used in numerous other stores. In fact, Apple has brought in the same architectural firm that created the iconic Covent Garden and Pudong stores to generate this one.

Moving forward, Apple wants to avoid single-layout, cookie-cutter store designs and instead focus on adapting each retail space to the specific site and environment in which they're located. That's a relief because as anyone who's visited the store on Haight Street in San Francisco, white and glass everything occasionally sticks out like a sore thumb.

Tech Buzzwords Make Shortlist for Word of the Year (Mashable)

The Oxford English Dictionary has chosen its (two-word) word of the year: Squeezed Middle. Last year's word of the year was big society, and the word of 2009 was unfriend. Those who spend time on Twitter might have guessed that OWS, occupy or 99% would have come out on top this year. They didn't come out on top, but they did make the shortlist, alongside some notable tech buzzwords. Gamification, clicktivism and crowdfunding made the U.S. shortlist, while hacktivism, sodcasting (playing music on your phone's speaker in a public place) and -- not surprisingly -- phone hacking made the UK list.

[More from Mashable: Retweet & Sexting Are Now Words In Oxford English Dictionary]

Here's the full U.S. shortlist for 2011's word of the year, along with OED definitions:

• Arab Spring: A series of anti-government uprisings in various countries in North Africa and the Middle East, beginning in Tunisia in December 2010.
• Bunga bunga: Used in reference to parties hosted by the former Italian prime minister Silvio Berlusconi, at which various illicit sexual activities were alleged to have taken place.
• Clicktivism: The use of social media and other online methods to promote a cause.
• Crowdfunding: The practice of funding a project or venture by raising many small amounts of money from a large number of people, typically via the Internet.
• Fracking: The forcing open of fissures in subterranean rocks by introducing liquid at high pressure, especially to extract oil or gas.
• Gamification: The application of concepts and techniques from games to other areas of activity, for instance as an online marketing technique.
• Occupy: The name given to an international movement protesting against perceived economic injustice by occupying buildings or public places and staying there for an extended period of time.
• The 99%: The bottom 99% of income earners, regarded collectively.
• Tiger mother: A demanding mother who pushes her children to high achievement using methods regarded as typical of Asian childrearing.
• Sifi: A bank or other financial institution regarded as so vital to the functioning of the overall economy that it cannot be allowed to fail, a.k.a. "systemically important financial institution."

The English language is ever evolving. Retweet and sexting were added to the dictionary in August, and earlier this year, Oxford acknowledged LOL, .
