...unraveling the secrets of human DNA, Harvard alum Roger D. Kornberg ’67 received the Nobel Prize last week for uncovering the crystal structure of the protein necessary to make DNA more than just a blueprint. Kornberg, who is currently a professor at Stanford University, presented a frame-by-frame view of RNA polymerase interacting with DNA——a conversion that leads to the construction of proteins necessary for life. Kornberg’s discovery, published in the journal Science in 2001, showed in atomic detail the chemical construction of RNA polymerase, a protein...
...compliment. Even if the comic-book-y script doesn't let her exercise many acting chops, she's perfect for this heavily physical action role, not just easy on the eyes but possessed of the grace and poise that lends her a stature greater than her pint-sized frame. Produced by effects master James Cameron, the pilot is a visually breathtaking and stylish can of whoop-ass that your TV is probably too small to handle...
...Harvard men’s soccer team left Fairfield, Conn. last night with the same content and victorious feeling as it experienced just two days earlier.

While Saturday’s winner came with minutes to spare before a draw would have been called, the goal from sophomore Mike Fucito yesterday came 43 seconds before the end of overtime. “We were...
...Weiss said. “She’s versatile—I have a lot of confidence in her, no matter where she is.”All three games followed a similar pattern: the Crimson started strong before losing focus and fading towards the end.In the opening frame, Harvard and Princeton battled through the first few points before the Crimson jumped out to a 13-9 lead. But with Harvard ahead 17-14, the Tigers went on a 9-0 run to open up a six-point margin. The Crimson did not recover, as Princeton...
...academic 1's and 2's," admissions-speak for the most intelligent students, enrolling at the school. It's a substantial increase: Academic 1's jumped 21 percent between the classes of 1993 and 2002. Ergo, the 11-percent rise in A-range grades over a similar time frame can be explained by the caliber of students, not the lax standards of professors. Ball's in your court, Princeton...
