...That's just something cafe patrons and commuters are going to have to deal with. But thanks to Alain Rossman, not every stranger will treat you to half his conversation at an unseasonable volume. He will be too busy using his mobile to trade stocks or download MP3s or play chess with his buddies...
...agents searched Lee's office and discovered three computer tapes - VCR-size cassettes in metal jackets - containing downloaded weapons codes. Computer-forensics experts concluded that Lee had used his classified computer in the X Division, where nuclear warheads are designed and assessed, to download voluminous mathematical descriptions of the characteristics and performance of various thermonuclear warheads to an unsecure portion of the computer-storage system. Prosecutors say he stored the data in a subdirectory protected only by a password that consisted of his initials. Then, the evidence showed, he went to another division at Los Alamos and borrowed a colleague...
...Then an action that Parker called "deeply troubling" last December - that Lee had told a colleague he was borrowing a computer recording device to download his r?sum? when in fact he planned to copy top-secret files, as was alleged by FBI special agent Robert A.

Every day Riffage presents a featured artist, offering up downloadable songs from a performer who's usually unsigned or on a tiny, independent label. The acts are chosen by Riffage staff members (they draw from music submitted to the site), and Riffage's users rate the music and post reviews. Last week one of the showcased acts was a San Francisco-based country group called the Court and Spark (a user named Rodco called the band "supercool mood country"). Using a 56K modem, it took a mind-numbing 2 hr. 20 min. to download the band's track Sugar...
