...today's art world, a place without living culture heroes, you can't even imagine such a protean monster arising. His output was vast. This is not a virtue in itself--only a few paintings by Vermeer survive, and fewer still by the brothers Van Eyck, but they are as firmly lodged in history as Picasso ever was or will be. Still, Picasso's oeuvre filled the world, and he left permanent marks on every discipline he entered. His work expanded fractally, one image breeding new clusters of others, right up to his death...

And againstDartmouth Ferrucci was simply unstoppable, scoringsix goals and eight points to end his career inthird place on the Harvard scoring list...
...China has a pipeline a hundred times wider, and at&t has just been hired to make it even bigger. Will China really have 4 million citizens online by 2000? "Try 20 million," says Zhang, who has watched the government exceed growth targets in everything from telephones to agricultural output...
