...networks, using a server, CD player/recorder and hard drive to store hundreds of hours of music. Once downloaded from your CDs, music is sent to as many as seven small receivers, or clients. Five can be wireless, and each can power a pair of wired speakers. MusicCast can simultaneously transmit different music to, say, the kitchen, den and two bedrooms. You can also compile custom CDs from the server to play elsewhere. This family jukebox isn't cheap: list price for the server and one client will be $2,800; additional clients, $600 each...
Cross-fertilization—the process by which different strains of a crop combine to produce a new organism containing genetic material from both parent strains—can only occur with whole grains. Crushing the kernel of a grain, known as milling, prevents it from reproducing and thus transmitting its genetic material to a daughter organism. Milling GM crops thus eliminates the danger of cross-fertilization and strain contamination by making it impossible for the crops to transmit their altered genes by reproduction...
McDonald's new national ad campaign will revolve around a national "dollar value menu" that will eventually include the Big 'N' Tasty burger, the McChicken sandwich and special sizes of fries, soda, salad and various desserts.

Vividon, a two-year-old start-up based in Sudbury, Mass., took a similar approach to selling its devices, which transmit streaming audio and video signals over cable-TV systems and the Internet. It made its first big sale last December to Samsung, the Korean electronics giant. Vividon was then able to land sales in the U.S. But it still garners a third of its annual revenues, which are approaching $5 million, from Korea, Japan and China. "The classic way of building a start-up is to cultivate business Stateside first, then expand overseas," says CEO David Ellenberger. "But with...
