...Real World--the hug is gaining ground on the handshake. There are many iterations, including the hip-hop hug (a manly shake-and-squeeze combo), the ass-out hug (an awkward ordeal that precludes genital contact) and, for someone you're really close to, the full frontal (your standard bear hug). The big squeeze has been on the rise at least since 2006, when the Free Hugs campaign exploded worldwide. It got another boost last year, when hikers from Ohio and Pennsylvania started the Hugs for Humanity project, walking across America to deliver a million hugs. And yet another when...
...There is a dialogue that can be had between an artist and a historian of science,” she says. “I don’t think [the two fields] should be conflicting. The angles of view that an artist can bring to bear are equally as valid as those that a scientist can bear.” However, Purcell admits that despite her frequent collaborations with natural historians, she has encountered difficulties in attempting to reconcile her approach with scientists’ when depicting biological collections.“Egg and Nest,” Purcell?...

But the most effective way for the College to remove all semblance of a Harvard J-term to actual school (and therefore drudgery) is to ask its students to serve as teachers...
...forefather of Porsche sports cars ever since. But you may prefer to skip the history and simply admire the stunningly beautiful automobiles. Car lovers can spend all day taking in models such as the 356 No. 1 Roadster (released in 1948, it was the first sports car ever to bear the Porsche name), an armada of 917 racing cars, and numerous variations on the iconic 911, whose shape still best captures the Porsche spirit...
