...With only a part-time job - she visits office-supply stores and makes sure that the floor-model printers have enough paper and ink for demonstrations - Stevens found she could pay for food and utilities, or she could pay the mortgage. Not both. After she fell four months behind on her payments, the bank moved to foreclose. Stevens briefly considered letting the bank have the house, but her oldest daughter, Maggie, 28, has a new baby and is enrolled in nursing school. "I just have to get her through that," Stevens explained. So after several sleepless nights, she decided...

The small tattoos could replace the often painful finger-pricks that diabetics endure up to twelve times a day to monitor their blood glucose levels. The ink...

...debates raging in the newspaper world is whether yesterday's ink-stained wretches can be reprogrammed for a digital future. Pedersen says no, and he's not kidding. VG Nett is a separate company from the print Verdens Gang; it takes only 5% of its material from the newspaper, and hires young, inexperienced reporters. When the paper cut editorial staff, Pedersen didn't offer a single one of the old boys a job. "Just tell me the last time the same person won the 100-meter dash and the marathon," he says...
