Keep this in mind: of all the underclassmen I mentioned, only three of them are current juniors. That means the core of Harvard's team, especially its offense, will remain intact for two more seasons. If the Crimson can learn to play without Mleczko--and we should expect that to happen early next season--the rest of the ECAC will be fighting for second place in both...
Gore deserves credit for speaking his mind and refusing to pander to the union. It's just that he speaks his mind so badly. And despite the differences Gore and the union have had over trade, this was hardly the reception you'd expect party stalwarts to give a front runner so invincible that he's scared every Democrat except the former New Jersey Senator out of the race. Gore is rapidly locking up party support and endorsements (Senate minority leader Tom Daschle last week, House minority leader Dick Gephardt two weeks ago); his potential challenger from the left, Jesse...
...billion radar-eluding B-2 Stealth bomber or the hulking, duct-taped $74 million B-52 pulverizing Serbian targets last week, the essential character of air warfare didn't change: air power, old or new, can always punish a foe but can rarely force him to change his mind.

...course, identifying facial twitches is not the same as reading states of mind, particularly when the computer can make sense of only half a dozen expressions. But the newly trained machine should get a lot smarter in the not-too-distant future. In the next round of experiments, the scientists plan to expand the computer's recognition skills by teaching it to identify all 46 muscle actions in the Ekman catalogue. They will then program the computer to recognize the various combinations of these movements, pouring live video images of human volunteers directly into the machine's brain. Eventually...
