After his injury , the outpouring of sympathy was unprecedented , and the media attention surrounding the struggle to keep him alive helped to cast the sport in a positive light . He said the government has armed Arabs in Darfur , creating the conditions that have displaced millions and destroyed the balance of power between tribes and the legitimacy of traditional courts . " The Supreme Court 's first decision of its young term was a swift but divided opinion upholding the death penalty for a California man who killed a young woman during a burglary more than 25 years ago.Yesterday 's 5 to 4 decision was the second time the fate of Fernando Belmontes reached the Supreme Court , and once again the justices sent it back to the California-based U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit , saying the appeals court had misinterpreted the high court 's rulings in overturning Belmontes 's death sentence . They could easily be digitized and made portable so that a person could literally carry their medical history on a USB flash drive , Barrett said.Looking at the nature of computer chips , he said that as they become faster , eventually they will be limited by their size , despite how tiny they become.His comments came after both his company and rival International Business Machines Corp. separately announced Saturday that they had solved a puzzle perplexing the semiconductor industry about how to reduce energy loss in microchip transistors as the technology shrinks to the atomic scale.Intel and IBM said they've devised a way to replace problematic but vital materials in the transistors of computer chips that have begun leaking too much electric current as the circuitry on those chips gets smaller.Technology experts said it 's the most dramatic overhaul of transistor technology for computer chips since the 1960s and is crucial in allowing semiconductor companies to continue making ever-smaller devices that are also energy-efficient.Companies are feverishly trying to discover new ways to adhere to Moore 's Law , the 1965 prediction by Intel co-founder Gordon Moore that the number of transistors on a chip should double about every two years.Barrett said that despite that law , " we are getting to the fundamental physical limitations " of the architecture of current chips.In the spirit of the World Economic Forum 's annual meeting , which has focused on bringing the fruits of technology to the developing world , he said a recent trek to countries like Egypt , Chile , Peru , South Africa and China , among others , showed that there is a need for cheap access to computers and the Internet .
