...1970s, when a few intrepid teenage surfers from Half Moon Bay, led by Jeff Clark, thought it might be possible to ride the giant waves without ending up on the rocks. They survived. "It isn't like Hawaii, where you just ride it straight down to the foam. At Mavericks, you have a long ride - over a minute - and you find yourself dancing with the massive power of nature," says Clark, now 52. For years, Clark tried to spread the word that Mavericks existed, but the pros scoffed. The common assumption was that really big waves broke only in Hawaii...
...people living busy lives to spend more time together, is this really that bad? Actually, it’s a bit exciting. What’s next for us? Weekly late-night pajama chats with Häagen Dasz? Cranium night? Hallway football (foam, for comfort)? —Alexander J. Ratner ’11 is a Physics concentrator in Quincy House. If he doesn’t pick up your phone call, he is likely in the midst of scoring a touchdown...
...much as he could, Cameron tried to place the cast emotionally inside the environment of Pandora.

From an elegant cappuccino to some New Jersey diner mug-tar, there’s a coffee out there for everyone. You may add or subtract espresso shots, foam, ice, soymilk, and sugar-free hazelnut syrup as you see fit; you are free to project our personalities onto our drink to whatever extent you choose...
Gortney called the LRAD "a terrific non-lethal weapon," and said cargo ships plying those waters should also use other means - slippery foam and barbed wire around ships' entry and exit points - to ward off pirates. But kinder, gentler techniques have their limits. "At the end of the day, if your opponent has an AK-47, the LRAD is not quite as effective as that AK-47," he said. "A well-placed round from an M-16 is far more effective than that LRAD...
