...based on UPCSE’s recommendation. And UPCSE’s work remains at the top of the University-wide agenda. Indeed, in a letter to the entire University community last month, Faust mentioned interdisciplinary integration in the sciences as one of the most important strokes in her sketch of the academic year to come. Fortunately, Faust has recognized that there is no reason to limit departmental integration to the sciences. As Malkin Professor of Public Policy and former dean of the Kennedy School of Government Robert D. Putnam told The Crimson, Harvard “underplays its assets...

...Great Job!” (Cartoon Network)Sundays, 11:45 p.m.Season Two Premiere: Nov. 18It’s highly unlikely that you’ve even heard of this show, much less seen its astonishing 11-minute capsules of neo-Futurism. Beyond the vague term of “sketch comedy,” this brainchild of “Tom Goes to the Mayor” creators Tim Heidecker and Eric Wareheim wholly defies description.

But it's a funny, hard-hitting gag. A news report about a robbery includes a police sketch of the suspect--a hairy, generic australopithecine; the three cavemen buddies argue the merits of using the slur "Cro-magger." ("It's O.K. when we say it.") The show has potential, but the characters actually seem flatter in the 30-min. pilot than in the 30-sec. spots...

In April, Denise Johnson and Victoria Snider, whose husband and sister, respectively, were killed in 2002 by the Beltway Sniper, Lee Boyd Malvo, were shocked when they learned that his sketch of Osama bin Laden was for sale on murderauction.com. The starting bid was $399, but so far the Canadian seller nicknamed "Redrum" - murder spelled backwards - has yet to sell the crudely drawn portrait. "It would be worthless without Malvo's name on it," Kahan says. "It is profit from ill-gotten notoriety...
