The company said it has contacted the affected customers and is offering to enroll them free-of-charge in a credit-monitoring service so that customers can discover if there is any irregular activity on their account. "We regret this situation has occurred and realize this may cause concern for our associates and customers," said Stephen Weisz, the president of Marriott Vacation Club.
Commercial space flight rules set.

More than 120 pages of proposed rules, released Thursday, governing the future of space tourism touch on everything from medical standards for passengers to preflight training. They spell out qualification and training requirements for the crew, and mandate training and informed consent for the "space flight participants"--known in more earthly terms as passengers.
Another patent win for RIM.

Closely held NTP, a patent holding company, successfully sued RIM for patent infringement in 2002. It later won an injunction, stayed pending appeal, to halt sales of RIM's BlackBerry device and service in the United States. With the court appeal process largely exhausted, RIM has moved closer to a possible shutdown in the United States. A U.S. judge in Virginia is considering NTP's request to lift the stay, which would halt RIM's service in the country.
