...nanoparticle solvent--silicon "ink"--that would mean lower-cost printing of silicon nanoparticles on polymer sheets. That, in turn, would mean lower-cost solar energy because nanosize silicon is a more efficient converter of solar energy to electricity than previously used materials. It could also mean a nanoparticle light "bulb" that would outlive you. What's more, silicon (as in sand) is abundant and harmless. "It's brand-new technology," says InnovaLight CEO Conrad Burke, 39. "We're in a leading position. We're going to do something that has an impact on people's lives...
...police report said. Purdy then took Cherubino to the massage room and introduced him to a woman called Lydia, the report stated. Cherubino paid Purdy three tracked $20 bills, and followed Lydia into the room, which was “illuminated by a lone red light bulb,” according to the report. Services referred to as “doctor,” “foot fetish,” “Russian ending,” and “pop the cork” were also offered to Cherubino. The report describes...
...delivery of the content in a safe way - all of that is far more costly than you would assume," says Sacha Wunsch-Vincent, an economist for the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development.

Such issues may slow the revolution, but they won't stop it. Industry bosses say they won't give up on the promise of a brighter, faster, cheaper future. So sooner or later, digital is coming to a cinema near...
...Network viewers have seen a tabby cat executed, a molested teenager hang himself, Secret Service operatives gun down a pair of suburban step-parents, a guard hump a secretary in the break room (to table-shaking effect), and a mobster get stabbed in the eye with a shattered light bulb.

Scofield, you see, intentionally landed himself in the big house in order...
...oscillating water column," has been the basis of several plans for generating useful energy. But Denniss, a former lecturer in mathematics and oceanography, curved one wall of the chamber to amplify the wave, much as a car headlight's concave reflecting surface intensifies the light from the low-wattage bulb. And he designed a turbine that rotates in the same direction no matter which way the column of air is moving...
