...Justice didn't put Gates on display just to make him look bad. The video set up Boies' third witness, Apple senior vice president Avadis Tevanian. Apple says Microsoft threatened to withhold a key piece of software--Microsoft Office for Macintosh--unless Apple joined Microsoft's war on Netscape's Internet browser. But Gates offered Boies no help on this point.

That memorable 1966 display of the so-called Leonid meteors was visible across much of the Western U.S. and marked the century's greatest meteor storm to date. Now, after 32 years of relatively modest return visits, the Leonids are poised to stage another celestial spectacular on the nights of Nov. 17 and Nov. 18. How spectacular? Scientists forecast heavy meteor showers and, just possibly, a full-blown storm as dramatic as the one 32 years...
Even though scientists expect this month's peak display of Leonids to occur over China, Japan and Southeast Asia--during daylight hours in the U.S.--J.P.L.'s Yeomans suggests that Americans who are curious should scan the early morning skies on both Nov. 17 and Nov. 18.

The prints were also used in order to display political or social allegories, much like the political cartoons of today's newspapers. All in all, the French world was thrilled to finally have an artistic movement that encapsulated them, and not the royal or religious scenes they were used...
