...Europe say they don't know whether this harassment problem extends beyond Britain, the only place where such cases have been made public. "We believe this is really a case of first impression," says Tim Sparapani, Facebook's director of public policy in Washington. "We've searched far and wide within the company and, among the collective memories of staff, we think this has no precedent." (See "Gift Giving on Facebook Gets Real...
...decision to back two new nuclear reactors shows a commitment to reducing climate change, the technology is a complex one with various drawbacks, and the president should keep an open mind with regard to new technological innovations that might offer a better solution. One such innovation is the nation-wide Smart Grid that is being studied by the Department of Energy. A Smart Grid is expected to be more efficient in delivering electricity and has a smaller environmental impact than conventional methods. We hope such projects continue in tandem with the new nuclear initiative. Until the Smart Grid and other...
...plane hit - between the first and second stories of the Echelon building in northwest Austin, about 10 miles from downtown - one eyewitness on the ground told a local television station that there was "giant fireball about 50 feet wide."

The instruments still sound prepackaged and the chord changes, while effective, remain obvious. The production, though...
...cast similarly wide at Volte, volte.in, in the tony Colaba district, where the exhibits range from video art to LED installations. There are occasional poetry readings and talks by artists too. "People are often intimidated by art in old-fashioned galleries," says owner Tushar Jiwarajka. "We wanted a friendly space with nontraditional art." Showing from Feb. 27 to March 25 is work from the young British-Indian video and performance artist Kiran Kaur Brar. "Gallery culture will take a while to catch on, but we are in this for the long run," says Jiwarajka. Let's hope another market crash...
