...make 50% of them accessible. But unlike the Underground, London's buses will all be accessible by next year. And under London's Dial-A-Ride program, disabled people are entitled to an unlimited number of trips in licensed black taxis, subject to availability. Traveling beyond city limits can prove even more difficult than navigating urban areas, as Louis Pion finds when he takes the train from the Belgian university town of Louvain-la-Neuve near Brussels to his parents' home in Leuze-en-Hainaut, near the French border. The 23-year-old theology student, who has cerebral palsy, telephones...
...thing, Otellini's "platformization" still has to prove itself in areas other than Centrino. Later this year Intel will announce an as-yet-unbranded platform for desktop computers (dubbed Desktrino by company insiders) that takes advantage of Intel's dual-core technology. Dual-core puts two brains on the same chip, which makes it easier to run multiple applications at the same time. But Desktrino may be outmoded before it is born. IBM, Sony and Toshiba took a surprise lead recently when they announced production of their Cell processor, which has eight brains to Desktrino...
...Judging the Bush Doctrine Columnist Charles Krauthammer's "Three Cheers for the Bush Doctrine" [March 14] was narrow-minded and premature.

"It would have been too painful; it reminded you of Ian too much," explains Sumner. He adds that the group needed to prove it could make it on its own living merits: "I didn't fancy being an Ian Curtis impersonator, really." That was never a danger. The 1983 song Blue Monday proved a smash hit with clubgoers - becoming the biggest-selling 12-in. single ever - and New Order further anchored themselves in the club...
...unusual experience in that all but one of my math and science teachers from kindergarten through high school were women. They provided direct evidence to me that women could excel in math and science. I only hope that more girls will be sufficiently provoked by prejudice to prove the common notion wrong. Women make just as good engineers, physicists and science professors...
