Since Sept. 1, Harvard has overseen the implementation of a major new interdisciplinary research initiative in the field of nano and micro-electromechanical systems (NEMS/MEMS) which could potentially be used to detect biological toxins in air or water. Affiliated with Harvard Medical School, the Division of Engineering and Applied Sciences within Harvard College, and the physics department at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst, the new program, called the Harvard Center for Microfluidic and Plasmonic Systems, will investigate a new type of NEMS/MEMS system based on metallic nanostructures that support particles known as surface plasmons (SP). “What?...
...Berlin, where he was a foreign correspondent before the war. His ostensible business is to cover the Potsdam conference. His real interest is in seeing whether the great love of his life, Lena Brandt (Cate Blanchett), has survived and might possibly still love him. It takes him about a nano-second to find her and about the same amount of time to discover that she has been ill used by fate. Soderbergh and Attanasio notice that there is a rough analogy between this pair and Casablanca's Rick and Ilsa--except (and it's a big exception) that Lena, unlike...

I just don't understand why Microsoft chose to launch a 30GB hard-drive-based player when the kids these days want cheaper, cuter flash players - not just the iPod nano but the SanDisk Sansa and many others. Today's hard drive business is all about video playback, and the Zune certainly offers that, but Apple's movie and TV store will keep them ahead of Zune's music-only retailer. (Microsoft's new movie and TV store for Xbox is incompatible, though ironically it will...
...closer you’ll be to your goal: 750 words, an e-mail to your TF with the file attached, and a big bottle of Olde English 800 that you can crunch while listening to “40 Oz to Freedom” on your iPod nano...
Send in your top choice for the next University president, and you could win an iPod nano. The student advisory group for the University presidential search launched their official Web site yesterday, along with a survey soliciting input from students from all of the University’s schools. The survey, which will be up until Oct. 20, asks broad questions about what students like and dislike about their educational experiences at Harvard. Later questions solicit input about what challenges and strengths the University president should “build upon,” and the final question asks students...
