...that they would not fly above 28,000 ft. (8,500 m), the minimum cruising altitude of commercial jets. But that agreement collapsed in April after the operators claimed that flying at lower altitudes would burn too much fuel, making it tough to operate profitably. In October, Eurocontrol will conduct a simulation in Budapest that will flood air-traffic control with hundreds of microjets. If the test suggests that the safety of larger planes could be compromised, Eurocontrol may push regulators to mandate dedicated flight paths and better collision-avoidance gear...
After giving birth vaginally, by caesarean and then vaginally again, I nearly lost consciousness reading "Womb Service." The line "Pretty tidy way to conduct the often messy business of childbirth," about Euna Chung's elective caesarean, was most disturbing. Trust me: suffering the effects of major invasive surgery is not a tidy way to do anything. Vaginal birth has been proven to be safest for moms and babies.

...Signet Society building on 46 Dunster St. seems like the perfect place to conduct an interview with Harvard’s cellist extraordinaire, Mimi Yu ’08. And at 5 p.m., when the Signet’s Friday Tea is in full swing with soft jazz music wafting down the hallway, it’s also the perfect time.But life at Harvard hasn’t always been so perfect for Yu, who counts an Office For the Arts fellowship for the current year among her many achievements. Yu found it difficult to meld her differing interests together...
