...Though these courses may officially be “freed from the usual constraints associated with a regular course offering” (i.e. letter grades and final exams), they aren’t all a walk in the Harvard Forest (although you can do that too). Many have full-length term papers and a hefty reading load. Having not yet mastered the art of BS, it becomes painfully apparent (and mildly amusing) when frosh don’t do the readings, which they often neglect in these pass/fail seminars. Thus, it might be worthy to note that the workload varies...

The procedure has to be performed once a month for four months and then once a year after that. Other highlights include sliding into the body-length Lyashi Dome?a Japanese invention?which rids the body of toxins and is offered as a weight-loss and cellulite treatment. Jaulin also features Ayurvedic massage using warm sesame oil as well as traditional facials, pedicures and eyelash tints, which come with soothing hand massages...
Although sports injuries are a danger at any age, youngsters in their preteen and early teen years are particularly vulnerable, especially to vigorous, repetitive movement, because of the way their bones grow. Instead of expanding all along their length, as you might assume, young bones generate new tissue at so-called growth plates located near the ends of most bones. "The growth plate is actually at its most vulnerable in the year before it closes," says Dr. Jon Divine, medical director of the Sports Medicine Biodynamics Center at Cincinnati Children's Hospital in Ohio.
