...since, despite complaints about the euro, there have been no such drastic side effects. From retail sales to savings patterns, the data appears normal. "There are no indicators that something terrible happened," says Enrico Giovannini, the former head of the Italian statistics office who now works at the O.E.C.D. in Paris...
...companions for the weekend seemed normal enough when we first met--a couple of high school teachers, an electrical engineer with his son and grandson, a woman in the wholesale food business and others. But as they eagerly dressed to go outside, I began to wonder. Certainly, even from indoors, the view was magnificent. At a few minutes before sunrise on a brilliant Sunday morning, the snow-covered mountains to the north and west were tinted pink while the valleys below still lay in shadow. But venturing out didn't seem like the wisest move: the temperature hovered around...
That's about normal for this time of year at the summit of Mount Washington in New Hampshire's White Mountains. It isn't the tallest peak in the country.

Storms blow up without warning. Every so often a hiker caught unawares by plunging temperatures, fierce winds and snow squalls dies of hypothermia...

Still, problems arose in the layering of foreground and background, which at times was dizzying, and the fact that the ball's rapid movements prevented it from ever coming into focus. And there are other hurdles to overcome; the technology requires twice the normal bandwidth of a regular HD broadcast, which satellite and cable carriers aren't likely to offer until there is enough content (now there isn't any), and the NBA will need to plow a lot of money into development if it wants to expand the technology's reach...
