...done right here on campus. House facilities, for example, have extremely discriminatory usage policies. Why are instruments the only thing you can practice in the practice rooms? What about our religion, Wicca? How are we supposed to keep holy on the black Sabbath if every time we cast a tornado spell in Mather courtyard, Peter gets Ad boarded? We knew Cambridge was close to Salem, but we had no idea how deep the bigotry ran. You can’t imagine how demeaning it is when TFs ask us to put away our wands while our Sikh classmates...

...lingerie is attractive in part because it de-sexes the breast. Bra fitting is not sexy, it is scientific. A cold eye, colder measuring tape - one expects calipers.

Whether a butterfly'swing beat can causea tornado is still a central debate of chaos theory. But it is now proven that drawings first published more than four months ago in Denmark have seeded outrage among Muslims from Gaza to Jakarta and embittered believers making their lives in Europe. An editor's decision--call it feisty or cavalier--to ask Danish cartoonists to depict the Prophet Muhammad has provoked a volcanic reaction, from a Muslim boycott of Danish goods to the torching of two European embassies in Damascus to death threats and lawsuits against newspapers, and even...
