...perfect wi-fi world, you wouldn't have such a hard time spotting the 18-in. antenna on top of San Bruno--because it would be the only one there. Theoretically, given enough unlicensed radio bands and megabits too cheap to meter, you could transmit via wi-fi all of today's broadcast TV and radio programs and every phone call (cellular or wired) as well--most of it free. That may sound like a tin-can-and-string utopia, but if the past 50 years of technology have taught us anything, it is this: never underestimate what geeks with...
Maybe the most important test of a hall's acoustics is in its ability to transmit bass resonance. "The sound on which the rest of the orchestra's sonority can rest," is what Salonen calls it. In June, he says, when the full orchestra first tried out the place in a rehearsal of Mozart's Jupiter Symphony, "the bass players all had this mad grin on their faces."

And that movement will not take place in anything like real time. Controllers will plan in advance any expedition the rovers attempt, then transmit an entire bundle of instructions, telling them every turn they are to make on the trip. Says Joy Crisp, the project's lead scientist: "In the morning, after each rover has woken up and gotten some sun on its solar panels, we'll send up a set of commands with instructions...
...source close to the prosecutor's office told the Interfax news agency. Yukos rejects all allegations leveled against it as baseless. The disarray reflects schisms within the Kremlin. Despite the confident hands-on image that Putin projects to the world - and which Russia's tightly controlled electronic media transmit daily to its citizens - the President is a tentative leader who almost four years after taking office has still not created his own team. Instead, two factions compete for his ear. The Petersburg group - which Pavlovsky describes as consisting of "bureaucratic populists" - is viewed as ideologically hostile to the big private...
