Romance, drama, espionage, ABBA, and...chess? The 1986 rock musical “Chess” features all of the above and the Murray Head hit “One Night in Bangkok.” The brainchild of Tim Rice and ABBA’s Björn Ulvaeus and Benny Andersson, a Harvard production directed by Sean P. Bala ’09 will run through Dec. 7 in the Adams House Pool Theatre. The musical adds intrigue to what might seem like just another high-intensity, mind-boggling (or, to some, simply boring) game by using...
...everyone believed him. For the third time round in the last decade or so, people have wised up. There is a group of artists, on both sides of the Atlantic, who seem averse to nostalgia. One hub of activity is New York based label DFA Records, founded by Tim Goldsworthy and LCD Soundsystem frontman James Murphy.

Their music is faster, deeper, and more likely...

Biochar's ability to sequester CO2 has given new urgency to such research. "Reducing emissions isn't enough - we have to draw down the carbon stock in the atmosphere," says Tim Flannery, chair of the Copenhagen Climate Council, a consortium of scientists and business leaders linked to next year's United Nations Climate Summit. "And for that, slow pyrolysis biochar is a superior solution to anything else that's been proposed." Cornell's Lehmann is even more emphatic.

(The official drought level is 1,125 ft.) If the water continues to decline, says marine geophysicist Tim Barnett of the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, "buckle up." Barnett co-authored a study estimating a 50% chance that a combination of climate change and increased demand could render Mead effectively dry by 2021. Mulroy doubts Barnett's dire conclusion, but she knows Las Vegas--and the world beyond--faces...
