...player who drops the hammer instead of hitting a nail; and “Social” which happens when sparks fly between the hammer and the nail and everyone drinks. As far as Collins can remember, from summmers spent mixing drinking and sharp objects, sparks have never flown. “I used to heat my house with wood, so the fact that flipping a hammer is a party trick is kind of funny to me,” says Daniel A. Reid ’06. Harrison R. Greenbaum ’08 calls himself...
Following Finkelstein’s speech I was told by a student that Finkelstein had accused me of having recently flown to Israel “to advise their government on how to suppress the free speech of Israeli pilots.” I called The Crimson reporter and told her that was a lie.

At Tsukuba Space Center, JAXA's main campus, located about a 40-minute train ride northeast of Tokyo, Yoshiyuki Hasegawa and his team were recently putting the finishing touches on Japan's next small step. In a gigantic clean room the size of a warehouse, Hasegawa...
...help Pakistan, if requested. Meanwhile, the helicopters Musharraf dispatched to help victims of the earthquake were diverted from duty scouring the Afghan-Pakistan border for al-Qaeda and Taliban fighters, one Islamabad official said. Reporters who wanted to travel to the ravaged regions were told they could be flown into the worst hit areas of Uri but were unlikely to be brought back immediately as the military helicopters were pressed into service mainly to bring the injured in for treatment. Could U.S. troops and aircraft in Afghanistan be deployed? That question is a sensitive one on the Pakistani side because...
