...expect some Googlefied version of the Rural Electrification Administration: the company's not about to fan out all over the country, delivering high-speed connections to the woefully underequipped masses. Such a project would be massively expensive - Verizon has spent $23 billion in infrastructure for its 100-Mbps FiOS network, which reaches only 18 million people around the U.S. Rolling out nationwide high-speed connections would likely break the bank, even at Google. But if successful, Google's pilot could be a spark to help push U.S. telecommunications companies toward more rapid development...
...This brilliance is not quite captured in their debut album, The King Lost His Pink, which was evidently recorded in haste (for some excruciating moments the live favorite "Head to Toe" is actually out of tune) and without the benefit of a seasoned producer.

"I like counting the laps," says Jeanine Renden, who along with her husband was wearing an orange wig with two lions perched at the top (like on the Dutch coat of arms). "It's exciting." Not nearly as exciting as her hairdo. If counting isn't your thing, you can always stare at the scoreboard. "It's every exciting to compare the times," says Dutch fan Eric Vanserstraadan, who was sporting two Dutch flags...
