...sanguine is NASA about this problem - or, at least, so sanguine is it trying to appear - that while Cain says engineers will spend the night analyzing the images and data from Atlantis, he does not think the inspection will yield anything to cause further worry. "We probably won't even need a focused inspection in this area," says Cain. "Still, we want them to take the time and review the data...
...Calling off the exercises after they have already begun might appear to be a show of weakness by NATO, but such an action would be infinitely better than provoking Russia into another war. Even if the exercises cannot be called off at this point, however, they are indicative of a larger problem in NATO’s approach to relations with Russia.

...epidemiologists begin to crunch the data on H1N1, we should have a better idea of how it spreads - and how dangerous it might be.

Although aggregate admissions rates would still fall, the sense of shared sacrifice would be lost. Sandel claims the commodification of emissions might remove the stigma associated with emissions. Paying for emissions could very well just become the price of doing business as usual...
Even today, Nesson rarely dresses up much for work, and ties don’t appear to be a consistent part of his repertoire. Black turtlenecks, black Berkman Center fleeces, black bubble vests—all fairly casual—tend to dominate his on-campus wardrobe. At his first meeting with his new lawyer, Joel recalls, he found Nesson sitting in his office clad in a T-shirt that read “Gay?...Fine By Me”—part of a Law School campaign to encourage openness...
