Mark Frauenfelder: In 2003 La Luz de Jesus gallery in Los Angeles exhibited the work of Norm Eastman, one of the best known men's adventure magazine illustrators from decades past. Judging from the paintings in this exhibition, the readers of those magazines seemed to like reading stories about Nazis torturing (and in this illustration, cutting the hair of) scantily clad women.

US going digital in 2009

US going digital in 2009 09/20/2004 10:44 AM
US Senator John McCain is attempting to get $1 billion in federal funding for consumers to help them move over to digital signals. Although currently a proposal, the legislation could help people move over to digital TV. Currently, it is proposed that broadcasters switch of the analogue signal and go all digital in 2009 if the 85% threshold is met. Although many US broadcasters currently send digital signals, very few Americans own digital enabled sets due to the prohibitively high cost.

The funding is thought to be aimed at devices to allow Analogue to Digital conversion for older TVs. McCain wishes to help low income families who would be badly affected by the switch. The legislation views the digital switch primarily as a technological advance, rather than a commercial move for hardware makers. "Consumers who rely on over-the-air television, particularly those of limited economic means, should be assisted."

The switch to digital means better quality for viewers as well as much more; analysts suggest that the revenue from selling off the analogue signal spectrum could be in the billions for the government. The switch also allows the freeing of space for better emergency services communication - a issue raised after the problems with 9/11. The US is following a similar move planned in the UK, who will be switching off the old signal in 2007. Freeview, the UK free digital service, works via a set top box. It offers ~30 free channels, and is currently installed in 4 million homes.

Turns Out 2009 Will Be The Year Of 3G

Turns Out 2009 Will Be The Year Of 3G 05/04/2004 12:21 PM
For each of the past three years, someone has come out with a prediction that the current year would be "The Year of 3G" when third generation mobile phones and services would really gain user acceptance. Every year that's proven to be a very bad prediction. This year, is no different, as back in March people were once again saying that 2004 would be "The Year of 3G". Of course, there's just not that much 3G to go around (you're better off in Asia than elsewhere, but it's still mostly a 2G and 2.5G world). So, now, it turns out that it's not 2004, but maybe it's 2009 that will be the real year of 3G. At least that's what the latest predictions from Analysys Research seem to suggest. This isn't all that surprising. People in the industry always like to assume that customer adoption will be nearly instantaneous, and reality always lags behind. As we said a month ago, maybe we should just declare this the decade of 3G to cover all our bases. The other idea is to declare 3G dead (something some of the WiMax hypers in the press might actually do) - which seems to be the universal sign that a wireless technology is about to catch on.

There are plenty of reasons to hate our government, from low quality cheese handouts to an embarrassing lack of prisoner-fueled gladiatorial events, but at least they have no problem telling scientists to stop sucking the creme filling from grants and start building robot arms. Darpa, the funds-holding financier of many military project, has put out a challenge to modern prostheticists to build a fake arm with, "enough finesse to pick up a raisin or to write in longhand. It needs to be sensitive enough for the wearer to demonstration to do day-to-day tasks in the dark. And the limb will have to be strong enough to lift 60 pounds at a time."
