...reality is that we live on a planet where new, potentially dangerous diseases are constantly emerging. Over the past six years alone, we've seen SARS, a more virulent bird flu and now H1N1, not to mention countless other pathogens that have escaped public notice but still keep infectious-disease experts lying awake at night. Thanks to the efforts of the WHO, we've built a remarkable early-detection system for new diseases - one sensitive enough to catch major threats and minor ones - and we should be rational enough to heed its warnings without acting as if the sky were...

FlyBy admits this entire analysis was far too technical and sportsy and unless you love this stuff, you're probably bored. There aren't too many non-sports reasons to watch the fight...unless you just really enjoy seeing people beat the crap out of each other.

Conclusion: The dearth of the gas mask industry in the Square is not only surprising, but also just wrong. Without this useful--not to mention fashionable--piece of safety equipment, Harvardians are continually exposed to a myriad of deadly diseases. And yet, when asked if he would wear a gas mask to avoid swine flu, one freshman said, “I’ll take my chances.” The ignorance towards gas masks will have consquences. Don’t come crying to FlyBy when you get that cough, we will be safe and sound behind...

...supergroup.” Coined to describe Cream, a band whose members did their best work together, its meaning has changed radically over the years, such that any assortment of has-beens are dubbed a “supergroup” when they are anything but. To mention two supergroups of this decade, Audioslave euthanized the fury and passion of Soundgarden and Rage Against the Machine into dull, MOR post-grunge, while Velvet Revolver strengthened the case for a mandatory retirement age for heavy metal musicians.
