...Slingbox Pro is the new flagship in the Slingbox family, which also includes the Slingbox AV, which handles basic cable and any non-HD video from set-top boxes and other video sources, and the Slingbox Tuner, which doesn?t work with a set-top box, but rather connects directly to the cable sticking out of the wall for less mess, but also less flexibility. Both the Tuner and the Pro have pass-through capability so, in most cases, you can leave it connected to your setup without disrupting your at-home viewing. You must connect the Slingbox...

Participants include students, administrators, law enforcement officials and crisis management experts. Officials say no new policy or funding will be announced at the event, which will feature panels dubbed...
...Oxbridge tradition of higher education, upon which Harvard College was self-consciously based, was formed in the 12th and 13th centuries partly in opposition to the University of Paris. The last adhered to the lazy continental practice of off-campus housing, where students would live in the city and connect with their teachers only at lectures. Instead, Oxford and Cambridge sought to develop residential colleges—what the founders of Harvard would later call “a real college” instead of the NYU-like nonsense—to foster student-faculty interaction...
