...regret to inform you that the Faculty of Arts and Sciences will not longer be accepting any incoming physics concentrators. Following the most thorough examination of the contents of the College’s science laboratories, the administrators have concluded that the supply of Bunsen burners owned at present by Harvard cannot successfully accommodate the needs of any new students in the physics track. Instead, the College has embarked upon a substantial multi-year capital investment initiative to repair and revitalize existing burners to promote the long-term health of the physics department and its pedagogy...
...important respects, an education in physics is founded on the use of the Bunsen burner. Concentrators learn a great deal from the heating experience and contact between the open flame and the experimental materials, complementing the experience of problem sets and other laboratory work. Harvard does not admit physics undergraduates without the understanding that Bunsen burners will be an integral aspect of their education...
...accommodating tree branch - is just outside my office. A man in a straw hat grills chicken, pork and fish marinated in garlic, white pepper and coriander root.

My husband and I gorge for $3 - and there's always enough for the street dogs that cozy up to our rickety fold-up table. We may not be epicurean masters of the world, but I like to think we're doing our part for the sufficiency economy...
...burning questions about the universe—and get a decent grade, even if you are a science-phobe.You will have to do a modicum of work—otherwise, you’ll find yourself melting down faster than you can say “TI-89 in a Bunsen burner.” So sally forth, future Science A-listers.The course names of the Science A spectrum may seem neat, but the content can be deceptively difficult and dreary. Science A purports to be a collection of courses which focuses on the hows and whys of physical sciences?...
...musical numbers and sharp show-biz humor. It's also fun as a field guide to '70s celebrities (Avery Schreiber! Mummenschanz!). Season 1 takes a while to hit its stride--the corn crop is heavier than usual in the early episodes--but by the end, Fozzie, Miss Piggy, Dr. Bunsen Honeydew et al. are fully fleshed, or rather fuzzed...
