...requesting such a volume. Frankly, I hadn’t realized that the “book” I had to read for my internship with Art Education for the Blind would consist of a series of audio tapes and a spiral bound notebook of tactile drawings. Somehow, I had assumed that “Art History Through Touch and Sound” would be a practical guide to finding resources, not the resource itself. After two years of dealing with Harvard’s system of advising, that assumption seemed perfectly reasonable...
...Apparently a small bunch of Palm users have had rather nasty shocks to their system. Static electricity, they say, has somehow made its way from their Palm cradles to their PCs during the HotSync process, which is where the two exchange and back up information. Result: fried motherboard. This appears to have happened enough times for San Francisco attorneys to file a class-action lawsuit last week. The law firm has garnered testimony from at least 40 new complainants since the suit started to be publicized. Palm maintains it is not aware of any such problem...
...potential death blow for computers; that's why you're supposed to ground yourself by touching the metal casing before installing a new graphics card, sound card or internal drive. I also know it would have to be a huge long-shot for an electric current to somehow pass from your body to the Palm's casing, down the cradle cable and into the computer.

...That he has managed to define himself, somehow, as synonymous with Thailand's technologist tomorrow may be Thaksin's greatest trick. In these weeks before the verdict comes down, he crisscrosses the country, assuring rural voters that he and he alone can make Thailand prosperous. If this Constitutional Court rules against him, he implies, the people should not stand for it. Some members of his party publicly warn of mob violence in the event of a guilty verdict. Throwing Thaksin out of office would be like taking money out of your own sarong and burning it. This Constitutional Court, these...
...flavors, they wind up obliterating the essential character of a dish for fear of offending delicate Western tastebuds. Meanwhile, a lot of visitors forgo many of the city's delights by refusing to eat anywhere that lacks the appearance of a sanitized upmarket eatery, mistakenly assuming that Thais are somehow more tolerant of badly washed food and dirty cutlery. The following places don't have air-conditioning to match global fast-food chains?but neither do they serve homogenized pap. Some have English-speaking staff and translated menus; when they don't, just smile and point. Prices are often...
