...Guangcheng [Sept. 4]. Disgust threatened to turn to despair. What hope is there for individuals like Chen, outgunned and outnumbered? But then I recalled the words that novelist Lu Xun wrote 85 years ago, at the end of his short story My Old Home: "Hope cannot be said to exist, nor can it be said not to exist. It is just like roads across the earth. For actually the earth had no roads to begin with, but when many men pass one way, a road is made." A pebble cast in the water may seem insignificant, but it creates ripples...

Arkani-Hamed’s favorite topic of discussion is the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) experiment, a 27-kilometer-long machine that will begin operation in 2007, combining two beams of particles at incredibly high speeds and energy and will help test his contributions to the multiverse hypothesis...
...that Harvard actually requires (some) mental exertion and print out a transfer app to Yale. Finally, some of you may have already begun to think about classes. Likely, you’ll want some help, so here’s some advice on advising: It doesn’t exist here. Your proctor will be unable to tell you if there are any decent Cores, and sectioning is tantamount to taking the SAT and undergoing a frontal lobotomy at the same time. No one can help you with this. Peer advising is a new program created to lubricate the process...
