发帖数: 7349 | 1 Over the years, the secret service has developed a range of technological
devices for improving security. Petro recalls asking Reagan on several
occasions to wear a bulletproof vest. (Reagan would grumble and groan but
usually comply.)
Over the last decade, such innovations have come thick and fast. A whole new
array of gadgetry has been added to the service's armoury, from face-
recognition technology to a new generation of armoured vehicles.

Charles H. Townes, a visionary physicist whose research led to the
development of the laser, making it possible to play CDs, scan prices at the
supermarket, measure time precisely, survey planets and galaxies and even
witness the birth of stars, died on Tuesday in Oakland, Calif. He was 99.
His daughter Linda Rosenwein confirmed his death.
In 1964, Dr. Townes and two Russians shared the Nobel Prize in Physics for
their work on micro... 阅读全帖 |

Washington with a Glock-toting personal assistant acting as a bodyguard may
make it a little awkward for the group the next time it seeks a donation

Media Matters reportedly took more than $400,000 from the Joyce Foundation

Anton completed his first road marathon at a mere 12 years of age.
He also went on to win the Leadville 100 in both 2006 and 2007 with a
stellar performance in 2007 finishing with the second fastest time ever and
3 1/4 hours ahead of the nearest competitor.
Anton has a unique approach to training and competing which is termed by
others as a ‘return to simplicity.' He advises people to ditch the training
plans and to not get caught up in conventional gadgetry such as stopwatc |

发帖数: 11737 | 10 The China Hi-Tech Fair is taking place in Shenzhen this week, and among the
gadgetry being shown to attendees is a Kinect-like motion sensing unit built
for games called the i-dong.
Developed by Taishan Online Technology Co Ltd., the i-dong (as reported by
Tech-On!) is not a new console but, rather, a peripheral that can be used
with other devices, such as PCs and set-top boxes.
i-dong comes in two parts: a thin black sensor unit with a camera and IR
lights (imagine something directly in-between... 阅读全帖 |

what Israeli authorities are doing after a new regulation passed in the
country this week, and nearly a dozen passengers have had to surrender their
shiny new toys.
