...soon become much easier, thanks to researchers at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) and Brown University. Richard R. Anderson, a professor of dermatology at Harvard Medical School and the Director of the Wellman Center for Photomedicine at MGH, was instrumental in the development and testing of a newly invented tattoo ink that is fully removable and completely safe. “The tattoo consists of these little submicron particles that are designed so that they carry the pigment permanently, but can be cracked open and then the pigment is released,” Anderson explained. Unlike the ink currently used...
...pepper broth. "It has the same sheen as it did when it was raw!" Call it the Blumenthal-Adrià effect. Ever since Europe's two famously avant-garde chefs, Heston Blumenthal and Ferran Adriá, began using liquid nitrogen to freeze mousses tableside and siphons to turn squid ink into foam about five or six years ago, the walls between the laboratory and the kitchen have begun to crumble. "This is the great revolution in cooking right now: the incorporation of industrial techniques into the kitchen, and the collaboration between scientists and chefs," says José Carlos Capel, food...
...life none of us knew about, a life involving invisible ink and microfilm, the tunnels at Cu Chi and mail drops in the Ho Bo woods. He had a rank (colonel then, major general when he died this week) and, no doubt, a serial number.

...people of Iraq: Nearly 12 million of you braved the car bombers and assassins last December to vote in free elections. The world saw you hold up purple ink-stained fingers, and your courage filled us with admiration. You've stood firm in the face of horrendous acts of terror and sectarian violence - and we will not abandon you in your struggle to build a free nation. America and our coalition partners will continue to stand with the democratic government you elected. We will continue to help you secure the international assistance and investment you need to create jobs...
...bring Amelio two great assets: top talent and a top brand name. Former IBMers say they feel liberated after years of being marginalized as the red ink of Big Blue. "It was more fighting for survival at IBM," says Fran O'Sullivan, now a senior vice president at Lenovo. "We didn't talk about growing." After the acquisition, "there was a real entrepreneurial feel again." There were other benefits too: Lenovo got the rights to use the IBM brand name for five years and snatched the premier Think family of computers. ThinkPad notebooks boast some of the best technology...
