Eminent literary critic M.H. Abrams ’34 addressed a rapt crowd in Lamont Library yesterday, emphasizing the value of appreciating poetry by reading it out loud. The bespectacled scholar spoke to an overflowing crowd in a lecture entitled “On Reading Poems Aloud” in the library’s Forum Room. “Read the lines aloud so as to savor the enunciation of the sweet sound,” he instructed his audience. “Can you taste the consonants? You should,” he added, after the crowd?...
...Gonzales may also be suffering from what the aide calls "Rummy rub-off." Senators who stood up loud and clear to defend Rumsfeld before the '06 election, only to have Bush fire him immediately afterwards, have learned their lesson. Few want to take the political hit defending someone they don't like, only to see him step down in a few days or weeks...
...perhaps the old measures of power and influence are not adequate to our time. After all, the horrors of Iraq are loud testimony to the limitations of hard power, applied by men bearing arms. The nations and people of the E.U. are generous when it comes to aiding the poor and disadvantaged; sensible in forming policies that address pressing environmental challenges. And perhaps above all - as the next four pages show - the institutions that give shape to Europe's growing unity have made life better for those who live there. That seems a timid, small success. But for anyone...
...unlike agencies in Europe and Japan, do not require GM foods to be labeled. While scientists have not identified any specific health risks from eating GM foods, anti-GM activists say there is not enough research yet into their long-term risks or impact on biodiversity. By telling consumers loud and clear which products are GM-free, organic-food producers will give them one more reason to choose organic. Says Jeffrey Smith, a longtime activist against genetically modified food: "The people served by the organic industry are very sensitive to GMO." And, the industry hopes, willing to pay to avoid...
Port Gentil is no ordinary town. That much is clear from the moment you touch down in the small coastal city in the West African nation of Gabon. Next to the airport exit, a gaggle of shrieking, minimally dressed women dance to loud rock on the terrace of a bar called Le Aero Club. "Come fly me!" one shouts down. Instead, I accept a taxi driver's offer of a ride into town - a 10-minute drive that costs $30. We drive past another bar, A Qui La Tour? - which roughly translates as "Whose round is it?" although the driver...
