...fossil fuel pollution because uranium enrichment involves release of carbon dioxide. Scientific studies of nuclear fuel cycle carbon dioxide emissions show that they are between 0.5 percent and 4 percent of equivalent coal-fired emissions. So the use of nuclear energy to generate electricity clearly helps reduce the overall amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. And finally, Zamore’s account of the radiological emissions from nuclear plants during normal operations was misleading. In fact, the normal operation of a coal plant releases more radioactive material than a nuclear plant.ROBERT WILLIAMSBrattleboro, Vt.May 23, 2006The writer is the spokesman...
...What he has done since the motorcycle accident in 1966, as a songwriter and performer, would amount to an excellent body of work, a pretty distinguished career, for anybody else. But four decades of post-crash Dylan can't come close to matching what he accomplished between the ages of 19 and 25. The changes he's put himself through are less radical and notable than the ones he achieved in his first years in the Village. (For a more acerbic take, see Richard Goldstein's recent cover story in The Nation.) Dylan still does concerts, playing the old hits...
...real sport. And we are.” Despite the freedom they allow students, club sports at Harvard do not receive much financial support from the College, leaving teams to rely on fund-raising and student pocket-money to cover expenses. Harvard Red Line receives a small amount of money from the Athletics Department and the Undergraduate Council each year, according to Chen.“We don’t get the funding or the access to facilities that varsity sports do, and that can be a bummer. But we are in control of our own destiny...
...radio waves that come back out with a bunch of little antennas and then, by comparing the output of the antennas and doing a few hundred million simple calculations, it determines, roughly, how much water and fat was around the protons in a single tiny spot. The relative amount of water and fat at that spot in you determines how light or dark a little spot on the picture will be. Do this for a few hundred thousand spots and, voila, a detailed (though still far from perfect) picture of one slice of one part of your body...
...comprise a significant portion of the survey. In turn, the aggregate data of all courses should be available when students weigh courses from the whole of Courses of Instruction. As long as undergraduates are given the freedom to choose their own courses, there is no reason to restrict the amount of information that they can provide each other about these courses. The CUE Guide is only one source of information among many, but limiting the CUE in any way only limits its ultimate utility. Given that the CUE Guide is one of the primary course selection resources, the CUE survey...
