...added that it was “never really designed for that much use.” The House replaced the pediment and put a door stop to prevent the slamming, but Lowell administrators think that ten years from now, with the possibility of increased traffic flow, it could fall again, outgoing Lowell House Committee (HoCo) Co-chair Neil K. Mehta ’06 said. Swipe access to the gate will be limited to Lowell residents in order to maintain not only its structural stability, but also to maintain the peace and security of the House, Eck said...
...good things don’t happen then.”The struggle continued into the second period as each team jockeyed for the advantage. With multiple possession changes and strong defensive pressure, the middle frame continued with neither Harvard nor Cornell taking control. The game flow stayed relatively constant—that was, until the Crimson broke through to even up the game at two goals apiece. Senior Jennifer Raimondi gathered the puck in the Harvard defensive zone and played a long pass ahead to freshman Sarah Wilson along the left side boards. Wilson tracked down the feed before...
WHAT THE BUZZ IS SAYING: At the Toronto Film Festival, where both Capote and Brokeback Mountain were launched, Ledger's performance was the one that earned the awe. But Academy members want a little showmanship in the roles they recognize (that's why Hustle & Flow's Terrence Howard is another viable contender), and it's Hoffman who is a one-man show...
...conversely, they could make the impact even worse than expected. And according to a study that sent tremors through the scientific community last week, that is exactly what seems to be happening in Greenland. Glaciers that flow toward the ocean in the southern half of that enormous frozen island are among the world's fastest moving, and their massive outpouring of ice now contributes fully a sixth of the annual rise in sea level. According to a study in the current issue of Science, they have nearly doubled their rate of flow over the past five years, to about...
...likely triggers. The first, says Julian Dowdeswell of the Scott Polar Research Institute at the University of Cambridge, is the breakup of ice "tongues" that reach out into the sea at the glaciers' leading edges. It's likely, he says, that removing that barrier allowed the glaciers to flow more freely. The second is that ice on the glaciers' surfaces has melted at a record rate in two of the past four years. "Some of that water," says Dowdeswell, "presumably percolates down through crevasses," lubricating the soft sediments at the base of the glaciers and allowing the huge ice floes...
