...would like Ray Koval (Owen) to love her, but it's clear she'd survive without him. Their relationship is not a road to an altar; it's about being with someone who gets you. It's mature love, in short, even if it's set in a glamorous cloak-and-dagger world where the goal is to scam the bosses into funding your fabulous lifestyle...

Physics and magic aren't often mistaken, but increasingly, physicists themselves seem to be trying to change that. Last year, a team at the University of California, Berkeley, announced that it had developed materials that could lead to an invisibility cloak. Last month, a group of researchers at Harvard University and the National Institutes of Health reported that it had accomplished something not unlike levitation, causing a microscopic sphere of gold to rise above a glass surface. Now, according to a paper published in the Jan. 23 issue of Science, a team of scientists from the Joint Quantum Institute...
...want to come out and play. Just when this most technical of sciences starts to become impossibly arcane, it goes goofy on you, as it did last year with the announcement that physicists at the University of California, Berkeley, had developed a tiny working model of an invisibility cloak. This week, the physics magic shop announced yet another wonder: levitation. Really...
...measure, that's important stuff, though as with last year's invisibility cloak, it doesn't portend magical applications in the everyday world - and won't for a long, long time. "If you're looking for a free trip for your body on quantum levitation, you're not going to get it with this," says Parsegian. Even at its most fanciful, physics, it seems, can play around for only so long before it gets back to serious work...
