Silas Xu ’05, an applied math concentrator in Cabot House, is an editorial editor of The Crimson. For the remaining summer and during the fall, he is studying and researching in Paris, where calling mummy could not be easier—cell phone signals abound, even in the metro system...
...Creaser is entitled to feel hopeful as he takes aim. As fossil deposits go, Riversleigh is like a golf course where you can't help but shoot sub-par. Bones abound: even the untrained eye can spot them protruding from the gray limestone outcrops. In an area of 40 sq. km, Archer's teams have found and named hundreds of sites since 1976, when he and palaeontologist Henk Godthelp decided to check out reports that Riversleigh - then a cattle station, now part of Lawn Hill National Park - might contain valuable fossils. And it did - in the same way that...

For example, LG sees 5% profit margins on its mobile phones; Samsung earns in excess of 20%. Nor does it help that LG Electronics is a member of one of South Korea's mammoth, family-controlled conglomerates, called chaebols, which are infamous for mysterious and convoluted business practices. In February the company broke a promise to investors and pledged $130 million to buy bonds of a nearly bankrupt affiliate, credit-card issuer LG Card. Kim says...
