Other institutional support for social life, such as the UC’s funding of House Committees (HoCos), has fallen trap to the same narrow view. According to Dunster HoCo Co-Chair Andrew L. Kalloch ’06, in the past, the UC generously financed HoCo happy hours. “But you couldn’t get that $600 for a cookout or something,” he says. After HoCos asked for fewer restrictions, this semester’s bill gives them the right to do “whatever they want” with the money...
...both sides of the dike--gaping holes, some 10 meters across and eight meters deep. The crater bottoms, I am told, are two meters below sea level. The crater that had severed the dike is almost filled in again, but the main worry is the bombs that have fallen on the sides of the dike. They cause earthquakes that shatter the dike's foundation and make deep cracks that zigzag up the sides. Antipersonnel bombs have also been used; they enter the dike on an angle, lodging underneath and exploding later. This damage does not show up on aerial reconnaissance...

Barrett and Otellini say the division is a work in progress...
...Such big dreams will inevitably come at a cost. Hydropower, once touted as cheap, clean energy, has fallen out of favor in recent years. In 2000, a report by the World Commission on Dams found that in developing countries the damage to communities and environment from building dams was rarely offset by the economic and developmental gains, which often failed to meet expectations. Assuming the World Bank approves funding for the project, Nam Theun 2 will be the first major new dam project the bank has supported in a decade. Opposition to the project has been fierce from international environmental...
