Facebook hates babies. I found this out last night when I tried to log on as Laszlo Stein, my 3-month-old son, who has been faithfully posting adorable photos and angry commentary since his second-trimester sonogram, back when his listed interests were just kicking and drinking his own urine. In his time on Facebook, he has threatened to pee on some and cut others. He once posted - next to a photo of him gummily smiling and wearing a kimono - this response to my wife's friend Nancy's comment that she met another baby named Laszlo: "OMG! That...
...students arrived on campus last September, classes, organizations, clubs and societies alike seemed to hit the ground running—that is, all except for the Undergraduate Council, whose flawed election schedule leaves students virtually without representation during the summer and the first month back in Cambridge. Instead of the president and vice president shouldering the burden alone—leading to logistical difficulties and stalling progress on ongoing projects—the UC should continue to meet with the same representatives as the year before, until elections determine a changing of the guard in October...
...Student life does not pause for the first month of school, and many campus organizations with immediate organizational needs face frustration as they try to start the year with no functional UC in place.

While the UC president and vice president have a history of remaining on campus throughout...
...days of summer have hit Italy hard this year. During my family's beach holiday on the enchanting island of Sardinia, the surprise star was Totò, a pint-size, black-and-white, eight-month-old mixed-breed from Naples whom our friends brought along to a house we shared near the southern town of Pula. Totò - named for the famed Neapolitan comedian, not Dorothy's pooch - has exactly one trick in his repertoire: misbehaving. He swiped everything from pasta al pesto to a half-pound of butter off the kitchen table, ran around the yard with a neighbor...
There have been reports of this new breed of lifeguards carrying out several rescues already this summer, with local papers proudly chronicling the hairy heroics. Rambo, an 11-month-old Labrador, helped save a drowning 47-year-old bather near the east-coast city of Foggia, while Massi, a Newfoundland, and Labrador Romeo were patrolling the super-chic Amalfi coast aboard a motorized, rubber coast-guard raft when they helped two would-be victims. Other four-legged studs have offered staged demonstrations of water safety for vacationers near Venice...
