...Beneath their fine, carbon-fiber exteriors, the two cars employ different methods of sucking power and speed out of batteries. Tesla's Energy Storage System utilizes several thousand lithium-ion cells, which, due to their high energy density, exceptional energy-to-weight ratio and capacity for hundreds of charge and discharge cycles, are increasingly one of the most popular types of battery. The Lightning, on the other hand, has benefited from the wonders of nanotechnology. Its 30 batteries are made of lithium-titanate nanoparticles, a development from the conventional lithium-ion cell; they boast a range of over 185 miles...
ISRAEL'S DANGEROUS EXPORT TO CHINA Washington -- The Clinton Administration is lobbying the Israeli government and an Israeli company to halt the sale to China of an advanced fiber-optics telecommunications system containing U.S.-made microchips. Although the system is for civilian use, intelligence officials fear the sale would give China the potential to build a sophisticated military command-and-control system that would be almost impossible to monitor. The trouble is that liberalized post- cold war U.S. export laws leave officials largely powerless to stop the transaction. Israel has agreed to halt the sale temporarily while the U.S. studies...
During lulls in the rock-'n'-roll war there were G.I.s who rode the waves of the South China Sea on pieces of fiber glass shipped from home. The stretch of sugary sand they favored most came to be known as China Beach. When the war was quit and the Americans were gone, nobody, much less Charlie, was borne upon a breaker for a very long time. Then, about a year ago, a sentimental American vet in Hong Kong persuaded a couple of sports promoters to pitch a world-class surfing competition back in the very sea he had assaulted...
...actually beneficial in terms of reducing the risk of heart disease and type 2 diabetes. It's the same with carbohydrates. The total amount is not important. But high intake of refined starch and sugar is related to a higher risk of heart disease and diabetes, whereas high-fiber whole-grain carbohydrates are related to a lower risk. That's not too surprising, as we know that high intakes of sugar and refined starch have an adverse effect on blood glucose levels...
...consider yourself a team player, he advises, even though you may have to pretend to be one. "Team spirit is for losers, financially speaking." Ownership is for winners, though: "Ownership isn't the important thing--it's the only thing ... You must strive with every fiber of your being, while recognizing the idiocy of your behavior, to own and retain control of as near to 100% of any company...
