What jump-started the glaciers' outflow isn't precisely clear, but scientists point to two 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 voice that once rivaled the Strokes’ Julian Casablancas for sinuous suggestiveness now comes off as tired and stripped of all attitude.

...Brown meet went pretty well, which was important for us to re-focus,” he said, noting the distraction of the bus dilemma. “Penn was a big win for us. I was particularly happy with the way the team performed.” Julian Rose added that the adventure illustrated team cohesion in another way. “As soon as we had that team effort we knew we would win today,” he said, adding, “Nothing can stop the bus.” Princeton’s men?...
