Still, the bones have more secrets to reveal. They were never fossilized, and a careful analysis of their carbon and nitrogen composition, yet to be performed, should reveal plenty about Kennewick Man's diet. Says Stafford: "We can tell if he ate nothing but plants, predominantly meat or a mixture of the two." The researchers may be able to determine whether he preferred meat or fish. It's even possible that DNA could be extracted and analyzed someday...

To my surprise, many agree that gender-based discrimination is largely past, even when learning of studies that unequivocally reveal its persistence. It seems that the tendency to believe in a fair world is a powerful one, with the ability to perceive discrimination coming only slowly after a person has experienced enough prejudice to cause harm or impede success.

Unfortunately for Summers, though, the tally for the no-confidence vote at next week’s Faculty meeting was quite likely to reveal just the opposite proportion.From last January, when Summers’ comments about “intrinsic aptitude” catalyzed Faculty dissent, up to now, our president lost the support of many of his high profile backers in the Faculty of Arts and Sciences. He did so not necessarily because...
