Northwest was built as a combination of fully finished spaces and “shell” spaces, or rooms that can be adapted to meet the needs of specific faculty members, said Linda Snyder, associate executive dean of physical resources and planning. But she emphasized that spaces in Northwest allocated for biology professors will be completely finished and ready for use before laboratory staff and faculty move...
...Snyder, the physical resources dean, said the administration has been working “very closely” with all of the affected faculty on the development of their new laboratories. But the remark contrasts starkly with what many biology professors have called an exclusion from discussions about a move that directly affects them and their research...
...film over the past 10 years, many grossing as much as $100 million. Developments in computer technology have made it possible for improved visual effects to convincingly translate fantastic images from the comic page to the silver screen.

Moreover, Snyder endeavored to ensure that “Watchmen” maintained an aesthetic...

Any worthy onscreen adaptation would need to capture the gritty depth and scope that have made the book so influential, while preserving the pace and stylistic flair of a thriller.In conveying the book’s events and emotion, Snyder largely succeeds.

(The two self-starters are Haley, who does right by his grizzled role, and Morgan, a Robert Downey Jr. knockoff who chews the scenery and his stogie with equal aplomb.) And while the climax is unusual in a comic-book movie--bad guy does very bad thing, then escapes his comeuppance by persuading folks that what he's done is really...
