He was responding to a question about a U.S. regulatory probe into such deals at a conference. Scientists create digital models of World Heritage sites NEW LANARK, Scotland - A team of British scientists is preparing to create a digital model of Mount Rushmore using laser scanning so that the iconic U.S. monument can be recreated were it to be damaged.

Virtual reality used for blind to map real world RALEIGH, North Carolina - Virtual reality can let video game players escape from the real world but a group of researchers are using virtual reality to help the blind join the real world more, by navigating real places. Researchers at the University of Chile and Harvard Medical School are using three audio-based PC games that allow players to navigate a labyrinth, a subway system and real-world buildings based on audio cues. "Essentially the games work by interpreting information generated by spectral sounds like footsteps and door knocks," said Lotfi B. Merabet, PhD of Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and Harvard Medical School and co-author of "AER Journal: Research and Practice in Visual Impairment and Blindness." Italy antitrust chief warns Google of heavy fines ROME - Italy's antitrust chief urged Google <GOOG.O> to begin talks with Italian publishers to resolve allegations that it coerced newspapers into posting stories on its news website, or risk heavy fines.

Ebay petitions EU to stop blocks on Internet trade BRUSSELS - Three quarters of a million eBay Inc users have signed a petition urging European Union antitrust regulators to stop companies blocking online sales, the Internet auction house said on Thursday.

Behind the snags, drama, hype: Meet the Boeing 787 SEATTLE - Boeing Co's <BA.N> long-delayed and hotly anticipated 787 Dreamliner is a case study in the growing pains that can accompany engineering innovation.
