After The Crimson reported the confidential short list of finalists for director of Harvard Dining Services (HDS) this summer, Lewis speculated that student members of the HDS search committee might be responsible for the leak and indicated that the role of students on search committees might be jeopardized...
Lewis denied this week that he had thought students on the HDS committee were implicated in the leak this July...
...long, teardrop-shaped region of space that marks the boundaries of the earth's magnetic field. The magnetosphere protects the earth by deflecting most of the solar wind around the planet the way a windshield deflects air around a car. Still, untold trillions of charged particles manage to leak through. Some are trapped to form the Van Allen radiation belts that surround the earth. Others spiral down the magnetic field lines that project from the North and South poles. Energy unleashed by this disturbance excites atoms of nitrogen and oxygen, which in turn emit pulses of colored light. The result...
...Morris is a gleeful genius who preaches what he's paid to preach, who can teach it round or teach it flat. He is someone lost so far inside the game that he breaks its most basic rules--Don't leak to the other side, Don't sell out your clients--and doesn't seem to notice. "Dick has a blind spot on character," says a key Clinton aide. "The President sees that, and it makes him think about his own blind spots. That's a real service...
...compressed, and if the force is great enough, fractured. The sheer force of the blow kills some nerves instantly. Then the compression causes electrical impulses traveling through nerve cells in the area to go haywire, and the overload causes many neurons to kill themselves. The dying nerve cells leak calcium, which attracts enzymes to the area that chew on the tissues. The by-products are free radicals, unstable compounds that scavenge oxygen from healthy cells, often destroying them. As these cells die, they trigger a secondary wave of destruction that sweeps from the injured area and radiates outward. Blood flow...
