This exploits one of the predictions of Einstein's general theory of relativity: that the path of a beam of light (which is a straight line in empty space) is bent inwards by the gravity of a massive object.

The report merely repeats what it has said before - that "greater near-term flexibility in the path of fiscal adjustment should be considered in the light of lacklustre private demand".
But if he makes his work sound deceptively simple, he makes the same light of his meteoric career path.

Dr Lin is already testing a waveguide designed to steer light with a wavelength of 1.5 microns, and he is also working on three-dimensional waveguides made of silicon, which will provide almost total control over the path the light takes, and make really complex optical circuits possible.
Streaming out of the puncture, in a curved path with the water, came the light.
