...Harvard. Controversy over the content of Koala TV, a program that airs on the student-run televsion network at University of California San Diego (UCSD), reached a climax two weeks ago when the show’s producer, senior Steve York, was banned from the station after the airing of a 30-minute pornographic film. In the film, entitled “Rising Fees and Poppin’ B’s,” an adult film actress depicts a female UCSD student struggling to pay her rising school fees...and makes Harvard’s student...
...East Side, Hamden is a quiet suburb, easing the transition from urban New Haven to rural Chesire. Most of Hamden was originally a farm whose vestiges still linger on as stone walls in backyards and undeveloped fields. At its outskirts, Hamden is a liquor store and a gas station with barely paved roads and population densities approaching zero.

On Oct. 26, U.S. Deputy Undersecretary of Defense Richard Lawless announced in Tokyo that the two countries had resolved a nine-year standoff over plans to relocate the Marine Corps' Futenma Air Station in the town of Ginowan, Okinawa, to a less populated part of the island chain.

The construction of the new Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics (CFA) building in Alewife will lead to the removal of some nesting places, but also, community activists hope, open up the wetlands to a much broader range of animal and plant species in one of Cambridge’s wildest spaces.In addition to the birds...
...Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini, Francisco Franco survived World War II, retaining his dictatorial grip on Spain for another 30 years. Even when he died, he avoided the fate of his fellow despots. Hitler's body was likely incinerated outside his bunker; Mussolini's corpse swung from a gas-station awning in Milan; but Franco still lies in a grand tomb funded and carefully maintained by the country he subjugated. On Sunday, the 30th anniversary of his death, several thousand Franco supporters will make their annual journey to the Valley of the Fallen, some 50 km northwest of Madrid, where...
