That typical gym smell of sweat and tears was replaced by the far sweeter aromas of fruit salad, lavender eye masks and some lighter exercise Saturday when Thrive: Recharge came to the Malkin Athletic Center (MAC). Student members of the Community Health Initiative organized the event, which turned the fourth floor of the MAC into a congregation of tables offering information about sleep, relationships, self awareness, nutrition, and physical activity, and attracted several hundred visitors. Up to 40 people at a time lined up for the free massages and sleep lessons. The event also offered workshops on yoga, acupuncture...

The cycle works splendidly, provided the water remains salty enough. But if it becomes diluted by freshwater, the salt concentration drops, and the water gets lighter, idling on top and stalling the current. Last December, researchers associated with Britain's National Oceanography...

...expect the young men to notice that I don?t stiffen up. But I know they would notice if I did, because I have two younger brothers, aged 19 and 25. Their honey-colored skin, a few shades lighter than mine, and Asian eyes don?t prevent random strangers from viewing them simply as Young Black Men - which they are by about half - and, therefore, potentially dangerous, which they definitely are not.
