...beauty of the silvery, 27-cm-long, Chunky-bar-shaped plastic device. "The Slingbox gives you exactly what your home TV experience is when you're on the road," says Sling Media's 38-year-old chief executive Blake Krikorian, who co-invented the gadget with his younger brother Jason so that they could watch San Francisco Giants baseball games while globetrotting. "It frees the TV from the confines of the living room." Krikorian put the device to the test in Cannes a few weeks ago. Attending an annual television conference called MipTV, where producers, broadcasters and Internet companies...
...Tyrones of Eugene O'Neill's finest drama were his own cursed family: actor-father James, two wastrel sons and a mother retreating behind the lace curtains of drug-addled despair.

Madame Crommelynck also starts to comment on what we have been reading, asserting that "Beautiful words ruin your poetry" and "A poet throws all but truth in the cellar."
