...polling stations and a few ineffectual mortars. By 5 p.m., when polls closed, there were few reports of deaths. One incident surfaced of an insurgent raid on a polling station in the Abu Ghraib neighborhood. The attackers killed the supervisor there and made off with five boxes of ballots. Nevertheless, the day was still in marked contrast to the January election, which saw more than 100 attacks, including suicide bombings, killing at least 40 people in the capital...
...initial plan to construct a tunnel connecting the two buildings. Covered with rectangular terracotta panels, the building’s exterior responds to the traditional brick buildings and sidewalks that characterize Cambridge and Harvard. But, although the terracotta acknowledges the center’s Cantabrigian context, it nevertheless remains true to Cobb’s minimalist, highly geometric style. And such a conscious borrowing from Cambridge’s architecture might be for the best, considering the University’s conflictive past with locals over the campus’s construction of contemporary buildings (and this one in particular...
...exciting alternative certification programs like UTEP, the New Teachers Collaborative, and the Boston Teacher Residency.2. It is deeply rewarding: Nobody is saying that teaching is easy.

Some of this indifference is caused by a lack of information—a fire alarm will go off, students will go through the motions of evacuation, and then life will continue as it did before, with students being no more aware of why they should even bother to evacuate in the first place. We recommend that each House send an e-mail to its students following each fire alarm that details what caused...
