- MIT demonstrates wireless power transfer
06-07-2007 · EurekAlert!
Imagine a future in which wireless power transfer is feasible: cell phones, household robots, mp3 players, laptop computers, and other portable electronics capable of charging themselves without ever being plugged in, freeing us from that final, ubiquitous power wire. Some of these devices might not even need their bulky batteries to operate. Now an MIT team has experimentally demonstrated an important step toward accomplishing this vision of the future.

- Scientists develop new measure of 'socioclimactic' risk
12-10-2007 · EurekAlert!
Researchers have taken a first step toward quantifying the "socioclimactic" exposure of different countries to future climate change. The research team found that China, India and the United States face substantial exposure relative to other nations. By integrating state-of-the-art global climate model experiments with socioeconomic indicators of poverty, wealth and population, we create a unique measure of 'socioclimactic' risk for each nation.

- Happy endings aren't always best
02-12-2007 · EurekAlert!
Advertisements for financial planning services and medications often employ mixed emotions in their advertising. They may begin by raising concern about one's future and end in vignettes evoking positive emotions. Or they may start with strong, positive feelings and then induce worry. Does it matter which sequence of emotions advertisers apply in their messages?
