...college also comes beer. Whether it is chugged straight from a keg, sipped at a bar or competed over during a Beirut game, beer defines Harvard life just as much as the Core curriculum or Larry Summers. So this week, Drinky Drink challenges you to put your well-rested brain to the test and brew some of your own malt beverage. The process, though a little lengthier than a trip to Louie’s (an ale can be made in a week and a lager in one to two months), is well worth it. Rock Bottom?...

Already, scientists in Australia, Portugal and China have removed a group of stem cells involved in the sense of smell from regions deep in the brain and transplanted them into a small number of patients with spinal-cord injuries. These cells are constantly regenerated, making them a potentially rich source of new cells that might be coaxed into becoming spinal-cord neurons. Several teams in the U.S. are investigating another group of stem cells taken from the nasal cavity, where they are much easier to harvest...
...fine, but it truly stands out as a phone. It uses a regular keypad rather than a touchscreen, so it feels much more like a phone than its competitors, the Samsung I300, Handspring Treo and T-Mobile Pocket PC Phone Edition.

At about $600, it's not cheaper than buying each separately, but at 6.6 oz., it's lighter. One catch...

For decades, domestic product out-grossed the big Hollywood offerings, but Hong Kong has become just another struggling local mini-industry. Part of the problem is the brain drain to the U.S. of directors like Woo and top stars Chow Yun-fat and Jet Li. Even the great cinematographer Christopher Doyle, the Australian Emigr? whose bold, painterly eye set the palette for Wong Kar-wai's moody dramas, has gone traveling again...
