...have suggested augmenting the libraries’ reserves, but that isn’t a cost-effective solution either. According to a 2005 study by the Financial Aid Office (FAO), to add only three additional copies of each book and coursepack to the reserves would cost, on average, $360 per class, or approximately $40,000 for the Government department alone. Multiply these costs across departments and increasing the reserves system could cost close to a million dollars. And students would probably still have trouble finding their books during crunch time...
...costs in the form of stipends for low-income students. They have found a way to implement it that insures the discretion of these students. They have even secured a good deal of the funding, bringing the price tag for its implementation down from $200,000 to $100,000 per year. The dominoes are all in place—we just need the Harvard community to knock them down...
...electric concept car called the Chevrolet Volt. A lithium ion battery pack powers the car and a three-cylinder engine can recharge the batteries, extending the vehicle's driving range up to 640 miles. The engine also runs on E85 ethanol, getting fuel economy up to 150 miles per gallon - and conceivably eliminating the need for gasoline almost entirely. All in all, it would be a quantum leap over GM's last electric car, the EV1, and GM wasn't shy about saying so. "A GM electric car is an inconvenient truth," quipped vice chairman Bob Lutz...
...completely stifle the Crimson’s perimeter game, as Harvard was just 1-of-11 from three-point range on the night.The 27-point output was two shy of Pattman’s career high of 29, set during his standout freshman year, when he averaged 13.2 points per game in winning the league’s rookie honors. Since that season, Pattman has faced a good measure of adversity, missing all but four games of his sophomore year due to injury, suffering through a dismal 6-21 Dartmouth campaign last season in which he averaged 10.9 points...
...huge inland sea of snow of eastern Colorado, people are in harm?s way but the cattle are being devastated. In Baca County, National Guardsmen are delivering medications to nursing homes and the elderly. But Baca has only an average 1.8 person per square mile. There are approximately 35 cattle per square mile here and nearly all of them are in deathly trouble. At one feedlot, an estimated 2,500 cattle are dead. And more snow is in the forecast. As many as 340,000 cattle in Colorado are at grave risk. The herds in Nebraska, Kansas and Oklahoma will...
