Spring semester is approaching, a new set of Crimson editors is on its way, and Prestige and Mobility’s future is unclear. When we first started writing for FM, we had a list of demands. Although we still haven’t received our secretaries, our sexy secretaries, or our sexetaries, we did get the glass-bottomed hot-air balloon, the collected works of Afroman, and a commemorative photo with Registrar Barry S. Kane. Also, we received that machine which turns pennies into flattened pennies with our Queen Drew Faust’s image pressed on them...
...unclear whether the moves will save lives any time soon.

...more urgent. Since this study offers proof that females are not promiscuous - they won't mate for a day or so following an act of copulation - scientists can try using lab-sterilized males to edge out their fertile competitors. But because mosquitoes are sterilized using radiation, it's unclear whether they function exactly like untouched mosquitoes, so Hoy hopes that his team's findings can someday be used to acoustically test these lab-reared males to ensure they're as willing and competent as the wild males to perform the mating duet...
...Arab states will be willing to go now to make peace with Israel is unclear. The Saudi-sponsored Arab Peace Plan, which offered Israel peace with 22 Arab countries if it withdrew to its 1967 borders, will remain on the table for Israel's new PM to consider. Even Syria, a prime supporter of Hamas, spent part of 2008 in indirect peace talks with Israel mediated by Turkey. But Syria has broken off its talks for now, destroying any chance that Damascus, on behalf of Israel, might put pressure on the exiled Hamas leaders residing there...
