The game of darts grows up
Why should throwing pointed darts at a target board be solely a bar amusement? Unlike cricket, one of the other national sports in Britain, darts has long since established itself on the continent: It was introduced to Germany in the 1970’s by stationed British soldiers. As it became more... view more (2002-09-09)

Quantum coherence possible in incommensurate electronic systems
Researchers at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign have demonstrated that quantum coherence is possible in electronic systems that are incommensurate, thereby removing one obstacle in the development of quantum devices.   view more (2006-11-03)

Computerized doctors' orders reduce medication errors
Doctors are famous for sloppy scribbling - and handwritten prescriptions lead to thousands of medication errors each year. Electronics to the rescue: U.S. hospitals that switched to computerized physician order entry systems saw a 66 percent drop in prescription errors, according to a new review of... view more (2007-06-28)
