...first science survey administered to all College undergraduates. The page-long online questionnaire will compile responses from all students about their summer science activities as a source of background information for the further development of the Harvard Undergraduate Summer Science Research Program. The College is using an iPod nano giveaway to encourage students to participate before the survey ends Oct. 19. The survey asks students who took part in scientific activities over the summer about the sources and amount of their funding, and whether they were provided with room and board. It also asks about the duration of the activity...
Just about everyone who owns any kind of digital portable music player owns an iPod. Variants of the Apple device have commanded over 80 percent of the mp3 player market for years, and the line has cachet above and beyond simple numbers: consider, for example, that just about every raffle on campus with a prize of significant value this year has given ticket-holders or survey-takers the opportunity to win an iPod nano. Even my parents own an iPod. The iPod-ification of America might not have caught us completely by surprise—after all, the iPod...
...Memorial Drive near Akron Street, just blocks east of Mather and Dunster Houses, police said.

And you don't have to be a master of the dance floor like Fatboy Slim to use the iDJ. Simply slot your iPods into the two docking ports?which also act as chargers...
That's not to say the folks from Stuttgart have forgotten the niceties. There are cupholders that can handle a grande latte, and there's an integrated bottle opener. (What, no corkscrew?) Coolest feature: you can plug your iPod into the audio system through a connection in the glove box. More important, the R-Class is as roomy as a suburb, even if the exterior design fails to excite. TIME's backseat test passenger--all 6 ft. 8 in. of him--hadn't had that much room in a car since he was 10 years younger and a foot shorter...
