Scientists don't know how large the Asian carp population would need to get before it becomes self-sustaining and morphs from nuisance into true threat. And some doubt the fish will ever make it into the lakes, given their need to spawn in long, fast-flowing rivers like the Illinois. "It might be 20 to 25 years before they really establish themselves," says Duane Chapman, a research fish biologist with the U.S. Geological Survey. "We don't know for sure that we'll have any problems to speak...
...Stairs to the Roof” is a play that many theater-goers may never have heard of by a playwright they probably know quite well. One of Tennessee Williams’ earliest works and his first written deliberately for a mass audience, “Stairs” has never had the popular appeal of Williams’ later plays.

According to The Daily Princetonian, 43 freshmen enrolled at the beginning of last semester, but only 26 are still registered for the course. The reasons...
Over in Palo Alto, the Stanford Student Government has been circulating a little e-flyer about "Wellness Week," whose theme, conceived with utmost originality, is "Finding Balance and Happiness." Why? Because, you know, that’s what one does in California. Find balance and happiness. But the best part of this otherwise eye-roll inducing event is the central image on the flier—sea lions! Really! Don’t they look relaxed...
