...university is investigating the Snuppy report, along with Hwang's original 2004 stem-cell paper in Science. Hwang maintains that the current imbroglio involved no fraud on his part. He claims that a mix-up with the stem cells resulted in the wrong stem-cell lines--ones he did not create--being published in Science. Despite his failure so far to prove it, he still insists that he has developed the technology to create human stem cells that could be used to grow resistance-free replacements for damaged nerve, organ and muscle tissue. Despite black, billowing smoke, says Hwang, there...
...they do, it will be thanks not only to divine intervention but to an extraordinarily wide-ranging effort on the ground. Scattered in some 75 camps throughout Kashmir is an eclectic mix of professional aid workers, foreign volunteers, Islamic extremists and soldiers (Pakistan alone has committed about 40,000 troops to relief efforts). In some cases, old adversaries have set aside their enormous differences, at least for now. Before the quake, the mountain valleys of Pakistani-controlled Kashmir were off-limits to outsiders.

Trust funds would then cover the difference until 2041, when they would be completely exhausted. The proposal fills in the funding gap with a mix of benefit reductions and revenue increases. The proposed benefit reductions include progressive benefit cuts—meaning that high income earners would face larger cuts—and a gradual increase in the retirement age to 68. The revenue increases include a rise in the payroll tax cap to 90 percent...
...geniuses of our day, Harvard, in my opinion, remains slightly behind the times when it comes to full-fledged equality for women, greater social and economic stratification, and the bursting of that Harvard bubble that leaves us all feeling like we’ve been living in a weird mix between a young-adult daycare and an Old Boy’s Club when we graduate. I sometimes get the urge to pull out a pipe and sit in a red leather chair discussing Kant with my cronies. (And I don’t even smoke…or know...
