...those more attached to their tripod than their tube of Utrecht watercolors, Pfoho’s darkroom, in the basement of Comstock, provides students with a full range of modern equipment for developing and enlarging black and white film. Cheaper than a disposable Kodak camera, darkroom membership is available by the semester to House residents and affiliates. In addition to access to the darkroom, membership guarantees chemicals, film, and a locked storage spaces. Contact darkroom director Scott L. Peterson (peters2@fas.harvard.edu...
...outdoor pen holding prisoners, killing at least 16 outright and wounding more than 60. Former prison personnel described how those attacks produced pandemonium, with panicked prisoners seeking treatment from what were at times very few, poorly equipped medical workers. "When somebody died, we just took out their chest tube and inserted it into another, living person," said National Guard Captain Kelly Parrson, a physician's assistant at Abu Ghraib in late 2003 and 2004 who experienced three such attacks and was seriously injured by a mortar.

...technologies usually receive the CES crowd's most opinionated harrumphs, and this year the SED flat-panel technology developed by Toshiba and Canon was at the center of scrutiny. Billed as the technology that could bring down plasma, SED takes the idea of conventional cathode-ray-tube televisions and miniaturizes it: instead of one big electron gun exciting all the phosphors on a screen in sequence, millions of little electrical nodes do the same thing simultaneously. The result is picture contrast and response time that outstrip plasma and LCD with a much lower power drain. Toshiba says that production costs...
