To the Lost City. 03/19/2005 02:56 AM
To the Lost City. Researchers at the University of Washington discovered an undersea hydrothermal vent field that promises new information about the origins of life. A monthlong research trip in 2003, documented online, yielded results that have just now been published in Science (subscribers only, sorry). The UW's Lost City site has much of interest, including an online journal from the excursion; pictures and video are also available here and here.

04/09/2004 04:00 PM

  • AP: Voters reject big Wal-Mart store. Voters rejected a ballot measure designed to allow Wal-Mart to build a giant Supercenter store in this Los Angeles suburb without environmental review, siding with activists who said the retailer's plans would hurt the community.
  • Finally, folks are starting to stand up to the giant. The Inglewood case was an especially egregious example of Wal-Mart trying to use its overwhelming clout to get what it wants, and it's gratifying to see that voters were not fooled.

    AP - Andre Agassi sat alone, starting blankly at an Arthur Ashe Stadium doorway, the silence punctured by the rustling leaves on nearby trees. Soon, he'd walk through that exit, his U.S. Open done with a 6-3, 2-6, 7-5, 3-6, 6-3 loss Thursday to top-ranked Roger Federer in a quarterfinal suspended by rain early in the fourth set the night before and wrapped up in the worst of swirling winds.

    Lost Revenue? Nope ... Just Lost
    Opportunities
    04/15/2005 06:43 PM
    Whenever we hear about established industries whining about how much money they're losing from alternative forms of media consumption, we just shake our heads. If you do too, then brace your neck before reading on. A new study by Accenture says that TV networks will "lose" $27 billion in the coming five years because of ad skipping by DVR users. Not being able to read the full story on AdAge, we can only assume that Accenture thinks advertisers will pull back from the networks to the tune of $5-plus billion per year, simply because DVR watchers can skip ads. Not likely. The connection is highly dubious and the figures are entirely far-fetched. Yet even more troubling is the age-old "lost money" methodology. Each ad skip does not proportionally diminish the network's coffers -- no money is being subtracted from their bottom line. Rather, any "losses" from ad skipping would come from the network's inability to adapt to new trends and attract those dollars elsewise. The networks are losing money to ad-skipping no more than record companies are losing money to downloads. The quicker they see these as lost opportunities, instead of lost dollars, the better for them.

As the day wore on, our group — foreign journalists and Iraqi staff — had grown larger. A picture taken before we headed out shows us, dressed up and smiling, offering a plastic-cup champagne toast.

    08/01/2004 03:30 AM
    According to a recent study by Current Analysis, unit sales of notebooks equipped with a widescreen 15.4-inch display have steadily continued to climb throughout the first half of 2004. As of June 30, the widescreen market accounted for 48% of all notebooks sold, compared to only 15% in December 2003. The growth represents the highest share yet for the widescreen models since its introduction in the spring of 2003 and demonstrates widescreen systems are selling in greater numbers than its traditional square counterparts.
