  • Wireless Broadband Networks: the U.S
    Wireless Broadband Networks: The U.S. Experience Bharat Rao and Mihir A. Parikh ABSTRACT: Corresponding to the rise and acceptance of the 802.11b standard (Wi-Fi) in the United States, wireless local area networks (WLANs) that offer high-speed Internet access at numerous locations in markets that cover education, health care, manufactur- ing, retail, hospitality, government, and transportation are experiencing rapid growth. There has also been an active establishment of innovative business models to tap into the general demand for high-speed Internet access by creating wireless broadband networks based on clusters of WLANs. This paper outlines the key factors driving Wi-Fi growth and describes competing technologies. Using mini-cases, it explores the strategies of four or- ganizations involved in developing wireless broadband networks (Boingo, Joltage Net- works, Sputnik, and NYC Wireless). Although operating in the same market, these organizations offer significantly different access methodologies and services. The nature of possible future innovation in this domain is also examined. KEY WORDS AND PHRASES: Broadband network innovation, business models, wireless infrastructure, wireless LAN, Wi-Fi, 802.11. High-speed wireless access to the Internet has witnessed explosive growth in the U.S. market. Wireless local area networks (WLANs) are widely used in markets such as education, healthcare, and manufacturing, and increasingly in retail, hospitality, government, and transportation [7, 9]. Rapidly decreas- ing prices and home networks have fueled this growth [1]. In the last quarter of 2001, the sales of WLANs increased by 20 percent according to a study by Cahners In-Stat/MDR [3]. The growth in WLANs can be traced to the cre- ation of 802.11b, the IEEE technical standard that enabled high-speed mobile interconnectivity.

There Are Two Stocks for That. Nicholas Jasinski and Al Root 26 February 2021 “We wanted flying cars, instead we got 140 characters.” That is a 2013 quip from technology guru Peter Thiel, lamenting that the future hadn’t turned out like futurists predicted decades earlier. Soon, however, investors might be able have both, tweeting as they are flown around cities. They’ll just have to wait a few more years. The air-taxi start-up Joby Aviation is becoming a publicly traded company by merging with a special-purpose acquisition company, or SPAC, backed by LinkedIn co-founder-turned-venture-capitalist Reid Hoffman and Zynga founder Mark Pincus. If approved by its shareholders, the SPAC, Reinvent Technology Partners (ticker: RTP), will combine with Joby by the end of the second quarter. Air taxi doesn’t really do Joby’s business model justice, however. The company wants to be both the designer and manufacturer of its own fleet of six-rotor, four-passenger electric vertical takeoff and landing, or eVTOL, aircraft, plus operate the air-taxi service in cities around the world. “We are kind of like Tesla, meets Uber, meets the air,” said Joby’s executive chairman Paul Sciarra, who is also a Pinterest (PINS)c o-founder. The company wants to get people places faster and safer, for the same cost as driving—and with a better view, soaring above gridlocked traffic.

  • Bohemian Rhapsody
    8 Bohemian Rhapsody aul Haggis and Deborah Rennard married in 1997, soon after Paul’s divorce from Diane became nal. Paul was still seeking joint custody of his three daughters. Without Pconsulting him, Diane had taken Lauren and Katy out of the Delphi Academy, apparently intending to enroll them in public school. Paul and Diane were ordered by the court to undergo psychiatric evaluation, a procedure that Scientology abhors. In December 1998, the court surprised everyone by awarding Paul full custody of his daughters. According to court records, the ruling followed the discovery that the girls were not enrolled in school at all. The girls were stunned. They had watched the hostilities through Diane’s eyes. No one had prepared them for the possibility that they might be taken from her—until then, it had been the three girls and their mother against the world. The girls thought the decision was unbalanced and unfairly inuenced by the fact that their father had more money. Alissa vowed she would never speak to him again. Haggis was also caught short by the court’s decision. In addition to the year-old son, James, he had with Deborah, he suddenly had two teenage daughters on his hands as well. (Alissa was twenty-one at the time, and lived on her own.) The girls felt uprooted and they missed the emotional support of their mother. They didn’t resent Deborah; actually, they appreciated her advocacy and the way she balanced out Paul. Still, it was a difficult adjustment for everyone. Paul put the girls in a private school, but that lasted only six months.

Devotees of the Church of Scientology have gained access to thousands of British children through a charity that visits schools to lecture on the dangers of drugs. A Sunday Times investigation has found that Marlborough College is one of more than 500 schools across Britain where the charity has taught. Critics of the charity, Narconon, say it is a front to promote the teaching of Scientology — the controversial "religion" founded by L Ron Hubbard, the science fiction writer. Schools contacted last week said they knew nothing about the charity's links with Scientology. There is no apparent reference to the Listen to church in its drugs education literature. The Times Narconon's UK website states that its work is based on Hubbard's every morning "drug rehabilitation technology" and displays his photograph; but it refers to him as an author rather than the founder of Scientology. Narconon promotes a number of unorthodox theories and treatments — based on Hubbard's work — which experts say are not backed by scientific evidence. In California, where Narconon has its international headquarters, the state department of education has advised schools against using the charity. The UK prisons ombudsman has warned governors to ban it from jails because of its Scientology association.
