Jonathan B. Steinman hopes that a wind turbine atop William James Hall and solar panels on the roof of Cabot Science Library may help inspire members of the University to become “green” (“Green Baby Steps,” comment, Sept. 10). As a Harvard employee for close to 20 years, I see little cause for such hope. Each year since the University began computerizing, its use of electricity to power its over-abundance of computer monitors, printers and copiers—along with paper usage—has increased. During this same...
...demeanor, they’re freakin’ cold, and the organic nonfat soy sugar-free vanilla latte they’re clutching in the other hand doesn’t help. Whatever happened to the fluffy woolen winter scarves that actually man the front-lines against frostbite and wind-chafed skin? Unless global warming turns Cambridge into a desert and the Square into a sandstorm, let’s keep our kaffiyehs where they belong: in the drawers next to our granny panties and hot pink leg warmers...
...regatta with a combined 12 races. Harvard finished tied for 10th overall in a very competitive field.“I think our goal was to do a little better than we finished,” said junior women’s captain Megan Watson.In the face of inconsistent wind conditions, Harvard never seemed to get comfortable.In A-division, skipper Watson and freshman crew Meghan Wareham finished in 13th place with 132 points.

"For Democrats to get to 60 they'd have to go 8-0 in every plausible race and then find one more from one of the scandal-ridden states and defend Senator [Mary] Landrieu in Louisiana," said Charlie Cook, editor...
...points this season, however, including a dead last 18th-place finish at The McLaughlin Tournament at Bethpage Red. This past weekend’s performance is likely to be considered another disappointment. Scores were significantly higher across the board on the tournament’s second day, as swirling winds at the ocean-side golf course made judging distance and direction a challenge. “The hard part was that the wind was swirling so it would change direction, even on the same hole,” sophomore Peter Singh said. Singh shot 80-76 to finish tied...
