...This controversy about the prohibition of Nazi symbols is merely a form of window dressing. The awful truth is that most war criminals have never been tried or punished. In many cases they simply returned to their normal lives and professions in German society. Hence it is not surprising that the hunt for these by now aging war criminals still goes on today. That's why Germany's "constant struggle to distance itself from its past" might mean it is doomed never to escape it. Roger Jansoone, ICHTEGEM, BELGIUM...
Remove the gossypol, however, and you'd have a cheap and abundant form of protein for everyone. But get rid of all the gossypol, as plant breeders did in the 1950s, and insects will devour the defenseless cotton. Enter Keerti Rathore, a professor at Texas A&M University, who found a way around the problem through genetic engineering. In new field-trial data, Rathore's team demonstrated that it can turn off the genes that stimulate the production of gossypol in the cottonseeds while the rest of the plant keeps its natural defenses. "This research potentially opens the door...
...invites players to take the musical parts of their favorite groups, playing replica instruments and scoring more points as they reach higher levels of dexterity. But winning is not the goal, as our group, whose ages ranged from 28 to ... quite a bit older, discovered. The idea is to form a musical community with your friends in the basement and the bands you venerate - even if, like most of our group, you've never played a video game before.

...inside the top pop quartet of the 20th century, whether you're an experienced gamer or not. It arrives with the blessings of McCartney and Starr, the group's surviving members, and of Yoko Ono and Olivia Harrison; all were on board to expand and exploit a form that didn't exist when the Beatles were shaking up the world. Harrison's son Dhani, 31, helped bring Apple and Harmonix together; Giles Martin, son of Beatles record producer George Martin, devised intros for the songs culled from the band's studio banter. Like the Cirque du Soleil's Las Vegas...
...focusing on its latest reprocessing technology, which produces less waste, Areva aims to capture one-third of the new reactor construction market by 2030. That will be increasingly difficult because competition is heating up. Siemens now looks set to form a partnership with Rosatom, the industry's second biggest firm. And China's push for nuclear plants means there will probably soon be competition from there...
