...certainly not opposed to personal discourse with him on the Arab-Israeli conflict, and I suspect he knows where my office is located. But the issues involved in the Arab-Israeli conflict cry out for serious public discussion in the Crimson (the Harvard community's most widely read organ) and I wrote my letter precisely with this in mind...
...usual, interest in Dylan's new music is subordinate to interest in his new lyrics and in his present state of mind. But it's good to have the familiar musical background back--the harmonica that moves in to replace the voice when the words are over, the organ mounting upwards, giving the song a solid feeling and making the long, wordy lines seem to rise and fall in a grand rhythm. Dylan's voice on Blood on The Tracks is somewhere between the hard rasp of his classic period and the mellower country tones he affected after John Wesley...
...Thomas Edison's The Great Train Robbery (1913). The Phantom of the Opera. This must be the 1925 Rupert Julian American version with Lon Chaney and Mary Philbin (the best version), because Harkness Commons is featuring a live piano player.

Between 24 and 28 weeks is a gray zone in which few fetuses attain the weight or organ development needed to survive outside the womb. It is only at 28 weeks or later -when a fetus usually weighs at least 2 Ibs.-that it has a fair chance of survival and should not be aborted except for the most extreme circumstances. Despite the clearly established medical facts, the legal...
