...case where the devil is in the details, it's in the practical application of sanctions as a coercive instrument against Iran. The U.S. and the Europeans have so far been successful in getting two rounds of sanctions passed by the Security Council. That's no mean feat, given that China and Russia, two permanent Security Council members, have extensive economic ties with Iran and are often at loggerheads with...
...unearths a governmental plot that has the potential to destroy the earth. People planning to see this movie should not hope for the next “Donnie Darko.” Kelly, the director of both films, appears to realize that he will not surpass his previous feat; rather, he makes allusions to his cult classic by designating the signature rabbit symbol from “Donnie Darko” as an icon for the underground Marxist movement that begins to unravel the apocalypse plot. In doing this, he acknowledges that the success of the cult is everywhere. Here...
...Richter led the Crimson (3-1-0, 3-1-0 ECAC) to its blanking of Union (2-4-2, 0-2-2), making 27 saves on the night.His efforts against the Dutchmen helped earn the Crimson back-to-back shutouts.

Richter wasn’t even alive in 1982.“[The Dutchmen] had some good chances, but our guys kept them to the perimeter for most...
...shallower, and the passage across easier. He told a reporter for The New York Observer last month that “the whole point [is] to not be too in-your-face or condescending”—to present your argument simply, without over-simplifying.Ross manages the spectacular feat of making this crazy music seem logical by taking a modular approach. Rather than trying to pack every opera, symphony, and concert into one narrative, he subdivides relentlessly and then assembles and reassembles the pieces to suit his arguments. (For music theorists, the technique is similar to twelve-tone composition...
Bioengineer J. Craig Venter is expected to announce within the next few months, perhaps weeks, that he and his company, Synthetic Genomics of Rockvile, Md. and La Jolla, Calif., have created Earth’s first artificial life form. The feat will be an important milestone in the growing scientific world of “synthetic biology” (synbio). If you haven’t heard of synthetic biology yet, you are not alone. Research in this groundbreaking field is advancing light years ahead of public awareness, but decisions made now will have implications for everyone within the next...
