What's going on here? Even the producers, programmers and performers responsible for presenting the hip-hop-culture-meets-computer-hacker show Netfiend, one of a hundred streaming video shows Webcast weekly by Internet start-up Pseudo.com can't tell you for sure. But they are thrilled to be here so deep into the night. Internet television is an unproved--and, for the moment, virtually unwatched--medium, yet the Netfiend crew is resolutely sure it is on the verge of something very big. So confident are Skat and Pseudo.com's 70 other employees of the vast potential of their still...

State senator Joe Eddie Lopez followed him, asking Davila to tell his officers "that we love the work that you do, that we are slow to express it as much as we should, but that the safety of our children and our families rests in your hands...
With diagrams and slides, Under Secretary of State THOMAS PICKERING last week tried to convince Chinese officials that the bombing of their embassy in Belgrade was a mistake. The Chinese were underwhelmed. But what did Pickering tell the Chinese?
