...settlement in the interim. Intel settled its suit with the FTC last week before the case even went to court, sidestepping the kind of white-hot publicity that has roasted Microsoft. And yet the only word to come out of Redmond is a leaked memo from Microsoft lawyer David Heiner to the executive team. Shunning all evidence to the contrary--including Judge Jackson's stern admonitions and chief prosecutor David Boies' demolition of defense witnesses--Heiner insists that the government's case is a house of cards built on "various random incidents or pieces of e-mail." Bad news...

Kaiser, road builder; steel, aluminum and magnesium producer; creator of jobs running into the millions; and finally, but not least, founder of Kaiser Permanente, America's largest and most successful health-care program. ALBERT P. HEINER Walnut Creek, Calif...
Quartett aims to disturb. Heiner Muller's play, a loose re-interpretation of the novel Les Liasons Dangereuses, toys with notions of gender and desire in a series of icily barbed dialogues. Running approximately an hour in itself, the play is carefully prefaced by a series of Muller fragments, apparently intended to augment the spectacle of soulless debauchery.

As we were informed that the action took place in a post-World War Three bomb shelter...
...much lighter and allow the sail to stretch less with the wind. The latest sails include laminated polymers and woven fibers that offer greater strength and can maintain sail shape better in all directions, making the sail more able to adjust to wind changes. America 3's technical director, Heiner Meldner, a physicist who once designed nuclear weapons, says his sails are a composite of fibers, including carbon and liquid-crystal polymers. The Italians use a woven carbon-and-Kevlar fiber glued to a Mylar backing...
...Heiner Muller was once without full recognition in his own country. The East German playwright had a festival of his works this month in Frankfurt, and has been praised by international audiences for plays like Hamletmaschine and Quartett. It's only now that his dramas, pointedly dealing with the theme of revolution betrayed, are being staged at home. If Muller, 61, were to dramatize the end of the Communist regime in East Berlin, he says, "it would be a tragedy about incompetence and stupidity." He adds that many figures in recent history wouldn't make strong fictional characters. One exception...
