28.11.2008Harvard Physicist Plays Magician With the Speed of Light
Lene Vestergaard Hau can stop a pulse of light in midflight, start it up again at 0.13 miles per hour, and then make it appear in a completely
different location. "It's like a little magic trick," says Hau, a Harvard physicist. "Of course, in all magic tricks there's a secret." And her
secret is a 0.1-mm lump of atoms called a Bose-Einstein condensate, cooled nearly to absolute zero (-459.67 degrees Fahrenheit) in a steel container
with tiny windows. Normally well, in a vacuum light goes 186,282 miles per second. But things are different inside a BEC, a strange place where
millions of atoms move barely in quantum lockstep.

I don't normally post about
trailers or movies, but since
Dark Messiah Might and Magic
(they dropped the of, I
think?) launches tomorrow I
figured why not. This trailer
will absolutely get your blood
pumping for the game, I know I
can't wait to play it
tomorrow now. Wowzers.
Right now the only
mirror I can see is the
Fileplanet mirror, sorry guys.
I know how some of you hate
Fileplanet and all. I'll look
for some more mirrors during
the day and add them once I
find them. Feel free to add
them to the comments area as
well.
Just to
remind you, Dark Messiah Might
and Magic launches on Steam
tomorrow October 25 at 10AM
Eastern Time for North
America only. The rest of the
world launches on Steam on
October 27 at 10AM GMT.
The video runs for 2
minutes and 34 seconds, and is
really stunning. Not the
greatest quality mind you,
especially for a 20 meg WMV
file, but it works. Enjoy.

Multi-touch, big-screen interfaces are all the rage among the cable news networks -- most notably CNN and its "Magic Wall," which even

Saturday Night Live
spoof. More recently, NBC got into the act by bringing in a Microsoft Surface tabletop computer, putting a high-tech sheen on its political
coverage.
