...there is relief that the children have been removed, but sadness at the tears of their mothers. "The abuse is not going to stop and that's my fear. My fear is that this will be for naught," Helen Pfluger says. "But any way you look at it the kids get hurt." Meanwhile, the FLDS, usually a closed community, has embarked on a media campaign featuring the grief-stricken mothers along with photographs, taken by the group, of armed Texas officers at the ranch.

...uneven gender balance that characterizes Harvard’s queer culture. But as other students have learned, even having groups of similar people on campus does not mean that it is easy to find a sense of solidarity. And without this sense, they say, support groups are virtually for naught. IN OR OUT?Though the numerous queer groups on campus are often cited as evidence for the College’s supportive environment, the abundance of organizations might actually negate this supposed support, the large number making navigation difficult for students unfamiliar with the community but desperately seeking to find...

There should be an NGO surge...

...only the first of countless millions of species that could be forced into extinction because of rising temperatures. Conservationists are facing the depressing possibility that all the effort of the past several decades to save endangered species - controlling poaching, creating wildlife reserves, banning animal trade - may be for naught if climate change continues unchecked. In a drastically warmer world, habitats for many species - like the polar bear - could simply disappear, taking the animals with them. Nearly one-third of the world's animals are already under the threat of extinction, and the current rate of species loss...

...foilists to put a previously sub-par team performance behind them with the all-important ‘W.’ But Brandeis took the first two in convincing fashion, solidifying a Judges victory. Although the Crimson won the final bout, it was for naught as the squad fell, 14-13. In its first team competition of the season, the men’s foil was the only saving grace for Harvard, winning 5-4 in the matchup, with co-captain and junior Kai Itameri-Kinter and freshman Hao Meng each posting two victories. The foilists notched eight wins...
