...traditional physical therapy failed to cure his strained neck. Six weeks into acupuncture with Nolan, he is feeling much better. "I have no idea why it works," Dixon, 41, says, "but this problem is almost gone." Nolan attributes Dixon's symptoms to an Eastern concept known as a "cold-wind" condition and says the acupuncture treatment rebalances energies in his patient's body. That explanation may raise haughty eyebrows in the clinics and consulting rooms of mainstream medicine, but increasing numbers of Europeans are embracing alternative treatments such as acupuncture, chiropractic manipulation, homeopathy and osteopathy.

But they quickly encountered difficulties, primarily over money. Within six months, the marriage was kaput. "People change," says Schwartz.

For the same output, they say, a solar panel array or wind farm would need 200-500 times as much land as an average coal or nuclear plant. Also, because wind-farm and solar outputs fluctuate, they must be backed up by coal, hydro or nuclear power...
...Crimson gets wind of social club developments twice a semester or so: busses used as toilets on the way back from punch events, strange initiation rituals, club finances gone untended, and so on. In many ways, these revelations are no stranger (though usually slightly more scandalous) than the stuff we do at The Crimson. Inclusive or exclusive, college clubs seem to share a common obsession with arcane initiation procedures, for instance. And every student group must use a system to decide who gets in and who stays out. This social club had just made the mistake of assembling an accessible...
