...hand are the progressives, who feel that the council should tackle a wide range of social issues both at Harvard and beyond. In almost direct opposition are the more conservative "student-services" representatives, who feel that the council functions best as an instrument to improve undergraduates lives...
...Abecedarium through the Jazz Age-naughtiness of The Curious Sofa but will budge no further. An enthusiasm for the obsolete furnishes his rooms with daguerreotypes, gramophones and bell-pulls, and his diction matches the furniture-- his characters say things like "Mercy!" and "Drat!." Gorey's nonsense verse is the direct descendant of Edward Lear's and Lewis Carroll's, and, as it would be impossible to transplant Lear or Carroll to another era, Gorey inherits their Victorian world along with their spirit...
...song. You know the one. That Jackson 5-esque number, the one with the chirpy girl and the raspy guy. They put some rap in it. Yeah, that's right. Two rap breakdowns: same beat, different vibe. Don't worry, the rest of the song was the same, a direct translation from album to club. But think about it. If Len could do that to their radio smash, imagine what they did to the rest of their songs. Just imagine...
...fair, the impetus comes mostly from the firms that are recruiting. Local non-profits, magazines, school districts and Congress have few built-in mechanisms or resources to come here and woo us. OCS does attempt to present a variety of other options (or at least, direct us to the ubiquitous "binders in the downstairs reading room"). We should expect more of OCS, though.

...understand better how it works, maybe we could use that to direct the regeneration and repopulation of neurons in damaged areas of the brain," Gould told the Associated Press, indicating the findings could help future scientists slow or reverse the effects of aging and brain diseases. While it is not known what function the new cells serve, one theory builds on research done by Rockefeller University's Fernando Nottebohm, who found evidence that the brain generates new cells to record events into memory, as opposed to the long-held belief that memories are formed solely through connections of existing neurons...
