...great amount of damage that has been caused by previous treatments that cause really big problems for us. Turning back the clock on many repairs is part of our life.”THE MUSEUM ITSELFWhile conservators at both Centers work behind-the-scenes, the physical conditions of the space that houses the art also play a critical role in ensuring the stability of these pieces, one of the reasons that the Fogg is currently undergoing major changes.The importance of creating an effective vehicle for the display of art is not at all unique to Harvard. And when updating...
...first of its kind at Harvard—and the show’s organizers have secured the grassy expanse in front of the Science Center as a location for the show’s tent. Visibility is key, and as the hub of student culture, this space is the most strategic location for the show.Prices will start at around $20, appealing to both student palates and student budgets, and increase to indeterminately higher numbers.

With some rare exceptions, the media has been very good about reporting the actual number stolen during the April time period, which is approximately 14,000 pieces. That's a tragedy in and of itself. One piece is one too many. (See pictures of disputed antiquities...
...modern twist on Geoffrey's account, some argue that space aliens, rather than Merlin, constructed Stonehenge. These theories feed off the fact that no one's exactly sure how the rocks got to their present location - the origin of some were traced as far as a Welsh mountain range 137 miles away from the Stonehenge. Although modern tests employing only technology from the era have moved similar stones, there's still no full explanation for how ancient people managed such a feat. Hence, aliens...
