...happened, '94 again, one of the two went on to win. Two Asian teams have progressed, a genuine and welcome novelty. But at week's end, the favorite to take home the Cup was the oldest member of the old order: Brazil. And England's demolishing on Saturday of Denmark reminded us that other traditional powers remain formidable contenders...
...imperial a country as the U.S. - which is, one strongly suspects, Zinn's point.

...Though they have deployed only a few thousand Web-enabled ATMs in the U.S., manufacturers are already primed for the next phase of automated tellers to be used in a wireless-or even cashless-society. This spring, NCR will begin a pilot program in Denmark that lets users access their cash by pointing a Bluetooth-enabled mobile device at an ATM rather than inserting a card.
