Dontrelle Willis is quite a professional baseball player; he has participated in the World Series, pitched in an All-Star Game and nearly won a Cy Young Award in his brief but brilliant career. But, he has still never played for his country, but that comes to an end when the Marlins pitcher will play with Team USA take the field against Mexico in a first-round game of the inaugural World Baseball Classic in Phoenix. Playing for your country means a lot more than just playing. You have to play hard; you have to make the people feel proud that is why patriotism takes up on this World Baseball Classic event. Miguel Cabrera is another example of an MLB player who will be experiencing some of these feelings playing for his country, Venezuela, in its WBC debut this afternoon wondering what it would be to lead his home. For all that patriotism, though, Cuba is one of the teams that is compromised to make a good show. Their history of three-time Olympic championships and 25-time World Cup wins clearly makes them the best amateur team, but they have never...

All great journeys begin with a single step. If you stand on the sideline and mutter to yourself about the distance, then you will never start your journey, let alone complete it. As youngsters, we did not worry about time or distance. We only knew that we wanted to go, and we could not understand our parents insistence that something was too far away. Now, as adults, we sometimes let our adult sensibilities stand in the way of what we want. Let me ask you a question. Have you ever thought to yourself that you would like to start your own online business and cash in on the success that others are experiencing on the Internet. If so, what is stopping you. Many people tell me that they do not have the time to start or run an online business. Other people tell me that they do not have the resources to start and run an online business. Some people tell me that they do not have the requisite knowledge. Does any of this sound familiar to you. How much television do you watch each week. How much money do you squander on fountain soft drinks or snacks...

It s not quite like having the Jetsons robot maid do your sewing, but it might be the next best thing. As the first home sewing machine to incorporate high-tech robotics, the Memory Craft 11000 from Janome makes sewing and embroidery easy enough for a first-grader. Manual tasks like threading the needle and snipping the thread at the end of a stitch are automated. The machine s built-in software is designed to make embroidery patterns nearly effortless. If you didn t see the needle and presser foot, you might not realize the Memory Craft 11000 is a sewing machine. The first thing that catches the eye is the large color screen that can be raised or lowered for comfort. Measuring 7.5 inches diagonally and able to display more than 65,000 colors, it guides you through the entire sewing process. You can even watch instructional mini movies on screen. Using technology developed for its industrial robotics division, Janome has given the Memory Craft 11000 professional-quality precision while keeping it relatively small in size. The machine avoids the...

The lid is about to come off one of history s technology feuds. The battle is over who invented the computer: J. It s bitter, it s dramatic and it s about hanging the course of history. It makes grudge boys Bill Gates and Scott McNealy look like two kids fighting over a Microsoft Barney doll. Of course, the first computer was invented a long time ago and the principal players are all dead. But Iowa State has just spent three years and 300,000 constructing an exact duplicate of Atanasoff s machine--in part to disprove claims that it never actually worked. The Iowa State folks will turn it on for the first time in public October 8. If it doesn t electrocute somebody--apparently a real concern with this contraption--it might just solve a couple of equations and once again rile all the interested parties. The story starts in the mid 1930s with Atanasoff driving 100 mph down a yardstick-straight Iowa road. He would drive at high speeds on idle roads to clear his mind when he was working on physics problems, says John Gustafson, a professor at Iowa...
