...admire my fellow Mather residents for their openness. That kind of meeting--unprecedented at Harvard--constitutes a successful first step at learning from each other. I am also touched by the Mather residents who, before connected to BGLSA or Defeat Homophobia, took it upon themselves to make and display pink triangles in an effort to make bisexual, lesbian, and gay people feel welcome...

...work of Christopher Hemmeter, a sort of revolutionary in the resort business. His tastes run toward the liquid: private lagoons full of sociable fish, waterfalls, whirlpools, water slides and vast, curvaceous pools. Distinction lies in myriad details, like the seven bird keepers who ensure that the 27 pink flamingos get enough carotene in their diet so that they don't fade to beige...
