(ITA - 2004 - 1a Fase) Men in cobalt-blue In reality, a perfume is the liquid essence of herbs, fruit, flowers and certain woods. In dreams, its not that way. In the ebb and flow of the imagination, a perfume always breathes. When creating his recent Polo Ralph Lauren Blue, stylist Ralph Lauren began with the freedom suggested by the color blue: seaside, cloudless sky and jeans. From this feeling arose the other elements of the new cologne. In the vocabulary of a perfumist, there are the warm tones of melon and tangerine, of basil and sage and the soft scents of amber and musk. The idea is to please an urban man who is taken by adventure, the sea and jeans. It follows the original Polo, that is now 25 years old.

A machine vision 4sewer inspection project has sparked 5interest in using the pipes to lay cables 6for telecommunications traffic. The project, named Inspecting Sewage Systems and Image Analysis by Computer, or Isaac, is part of a larger 10European Commission-backed initiative to promote use of vision technology. Project coordinator Mark Sawyer explained that the inspection system employs a tractor-mounted CCD matrix 15camera and curved mirrors for imaging inside the pipes, and proprietary software to convert the data into a perspective that humans can interpret. It 19will enable rapid detection of defects in 20pipe walls and could be in operation within 18 months. The prospect of using the sewers 23for telecommunications is still evolving, 24he said. Commercial relationships25between cable companies and sewer landlords must be negotiated, and the technology to install cables has yet to be developed. However, he added, an accurate survey of the sewer system30brings it closer. Its a concept that could 31well go down the tubes.

(ITA - 2003 - 1a fase) About Men Card Sharks By Erick Lundegaard If all my relatives suddenly died and all my friendships dried up and all of my subscriptions were cancelled and all of my bills were paid, I (I) guaranteed mail - two pieces a week, by my estimation - 2for the credit card companies (II) me. They are the one constant in my ever-changing life. They are 1hot for what they think lies in my wallet. They are not just 1hot for me, either. I realize this. They want everyone, send mail to everyone. Everyone, that is, except those who need them most. The absurdity in my case is the 3puny sum being sought. I work in a bookstore warehouse, lugging boxes and books around, at $8 per hour for 25 hours per week. Thats roughly $10,000 per year. One would think that such a number could not possibly interest massive, internetted corporations and conglomerations. 11Yet they all vie for my attention. Visa, Mastercard, Discover Card - it doesnt matter - American Express, Peoples Bank, Citibank, Household Bank F.S.B., Choice, the GM Card, Norwest, Chevy Chase F.S.B. Not only am I preapproved, they tell me III have no annual fee. Their A.P.R. keeps dipping, like an auction in reverse, as each strives to undercut the other: from 14.98 to 9.98 to, now, 6.98 percent. I am titillated with each 9newer, lower number, as if it were an inverse indication of my self-worth. (...) At some point, in passing from computer to computer, my name even got smudged, so now many of the offers are coming not to Erik A. Lundegaard but to Erik A. Lundefreen. He may not exist, but 10he has already been preapproved for a $4,200 credit line on one of Americas best credit card values. After several of these letters, I began to wonder: What if Erik A. Lundefreen did sign up for their cards? What if he went on a major spending 4spree, maxing them out and never paying them off? What would happen when the authorities finally arrived at his door? (...) In the old days, it was necessary to hide behind trees or inside farmhouses to 5outwit the authorities. Now it seems theres no better hiding place than an improperly spelled, computer-generated name. 8It is the ultimate camouflage for our bureaucratic age. Meanwhile, the offers keep coming. A $2,000 credit line, a $3,000 credit line, a $5,000 credit line. If a 6paltry income cant keep them away, what will? Death? Probably not even death. Ill be six feet under and still receiving mail. Dear Mr. Lundefreen. Membership criteria are becoming increasingly 7stringent. You, however, have demonstrated exceptional financial responsibility. Sign up now for this once in a lifetime offer.
