We've got some good news for gamers that were willing to plunge into the PlayStation-certified world of Sony's tablets. The latest update to the company's divisive Tablet S will let you connect your PS3 controllers with those 32-bit games of yesteryear. The update is available now in Sony's homeland of Japan and the company is also rewarding its tablet faithful with a free download; an Ape Escape-themed mini-game collection. It's not all good news, however. The clamshelled Tablet P doesn't get the controller hook-up and you'll need to buy an additional USB adapter cable to connect a controller to the monoscreened Tablet S. A briefly worded, vaguely translated release awaits after the break.
Update: We've heard from Japanese users that you'll only need to the cable to initially pair the controller with the tablet. After that, you're free to wirelessly play away.

MOSCOW ? Russia's customs agency said Friday that it seized radioactive metal from the luggage of an Iranian passenger bound for Tehran.
Spokeswoman Kseniya Grebenkina told The Associated Press that the luggage had been seized some time ago, but could not specify when. The Iranian hasn't been detained, she said.
The Federal Customs Service said in a statement that its agents found 18 pieces of metal at Moscow's Sheremetyevo airport after a radiation alert went on. It says the gauges showed that radiation levels were 20 times higher than normal.
It was not immediately clear if the substance could have any use in Iran's controversial nuclear program.
The pieces contained Sodium-22, she said, a radioactive isotope of sodium that could be produced in a particle accelerator. Sodium-22 is a positron-emitting isotope that has medical uses, including in nuclear medicine imaging.
Grebenkina said prosecutors have launched a probe into the incident.
Sergei Novikov, spokesman for the Rosatom nuclear agency, told the AP that the pieces are highly unlikely to have come from Rosatom and said the isotope is produced by particle accelerators, not by nuclear reactors.
In Russia, universities, research institutes and big medical centers have the technology to produce it, he said.
"There is an extremely slim chance that it could have come from Rosatom," he said.
Novikov said that Rosatom has never sold Sodium-22 to Iran, but it has supplied it with other types of medical isotopes.
Grebenkina of the Customs Service insisted that the material seized is not highly radioactive.
The U.S. House of Representatives on Wednesday endorsed harsher sanctions against Iran aimed at derailing its suspected pursuit of nuclear weapons. Iran denies Western allegations that it is seeking to build nuclear weapons.
Earlier this year, Atomstroiexport, a Rosatom subsidiary, launched Iran's first nuclear reactor in Bushehr.
Russian officials have insisted that the deal with Iran is in line with international agreements and will oblige Tehran to ship all the spent fuel from the plant back to Russia for reprocessing to avoid a possibility of it being used in a covert weapons program.

CHRISTMAS
Christmas is one big, handsome snow tiger of a Siamese mix. At any given time, his eyes are only half open, making him look serene and mellow. All he needs is a good chin scratch and head rub, and he's content. In fact, he adores being petted and rubbed.
Things weren't always so easy for Christmas. He was found at a ranch near Best Friends Animal Sanctuary and came with a few bumps and bruises, but he's all better now, but he still takes some medication.
Christmas lives in a building with several other cats, a dog and a potbellied pig; he gets along great with all of them. But he's fine being the one and only center of your attention, too. He would do best in a home without kids.
He's a mellow fellow who just makes your whole world cozier.
Enjoy a relaxing Christmas all year long. You and Christmas deserve it!
JINGLES
This mellow, pretty girl was only skin and bones when she was picked up as a stray and brought to Best Friends. She must've had a home once, because she's wonderful on sleepovers, knows the command for "sit" (and is learning "down"), and likes to play with toys. But somehow, she ended up all by herself with nobody to take care of her for far too long.
No wonder Jingles loves to eat! She's known around Dogtown as a "chow hound," and has gained back some of her weight. Born in 2007, Jingles is friendly and easy to greet. But after all the poking and prodding she's endured, she does not like going to the vet! She's on a special diet to help improve her itchy skin.
Generally good with other dogs, Jingles sometimes gets too excited playing with them. If you already have a dog, Jingles will need to meet her new canine family members prior to adoption. Because she can be a little mouthy at times, Jingles would do best with a single person, couple or family. Please contact our adoption team for details.
Jingles is great with indoor cats. She knows who they are and doesn't want anything to do with them. If you have room in your heart and home for this sweet young belle, please give Jingles a ring!
Holiday "Free"dom!
Best Friends animals are so excited to find homes this season that they're buying their own airplane tickets! The first 20 cats and dogs adopted this holiday season will fly to their new homes for free. Most still have their usual adoption fee. Also, senior pets have no adoption fee throughout the month of December.
Best Friends adopts to all of the United States and Canada. Please contact Best Friends Animal Society right here.
See all the animals that need homes... at Best Friends Animal Sanctuary.

Academy Award-winning actress Sandra Bullock tells TODAY's Matt Lauer about her film, "Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close," in which she co-stars with an extraordinary 8-year-old
By Courtney Hazlett
For the first time in two years, Sandra Bullock stars in a major film, "Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close." However, if fans of Bullock's head to theaters expecting to see the actress in every scene, they might be disappointed.
"I'm actually in there for about 24 minutes," Bullock told Matt Lauer during Thursday's TODAY interview to promote the film. Why would an A-list, Oscar-winning actress choose to be part of a project that allowed so little screen time? Bullock told Lauer, "I've already had those moments," referring to some of her bigger leading roles. "There might be more, but I don't know how many moments like this there will be. With stories like this. With directors and casts like this ... you can't say no to that."
"Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close" centers around the journey of a young boy looking for answers in the aftermath of his father's death on Sept. 11. A heavy subject to be sure, and Lauer cautioned potential film goers to "bring tissues" should they see the film.
However, the interview took a lighthearted turn toward Christmas, and how Bullock might spoil her son Louis. Watch the video to see if she gives up what gifts she might be getting for the little guy. Hints:?A plane? A jukebox? Watch and find out.
