...script, doesn't support Acker's ambition for profundity. Unless this is your very first postapocalyptic story, a line like the one Number 2 delivers - "Technology has been the ruin of us" - is more likely to induce an eye roll than anything else. In movies, our technology is so often the ruin of us. We got that message from Stanley Kubrick way back when, and we get it now. But couldn't filmmakers let something else ruin us for a change? Even the apocalypse needs variety...
...vast improvement, thanks to clear-air laws, over the amounts found more than a decade ago. Brook's team studied much higher exposures to particulates, in the order of 150 micrograms per cubic meter, but notes that on many days, cities such as Los Angeles and Pittsburgh and Detroit often reach these levels. (The Environmental Protection Agency deems anything between 151 and 200 micrograms per cubic meter to be unhealthy.) But it's hard for the average city denizen to know when particulate levels reach that unhealthy zone. In fact, the 80 volunteers in the study, who breathed ambient city...

As a newspaper devoted to the highest standards of journalistic integrity, The Crimson does not often shy away from offending readers who take umbrage at its content. But Tuesday’s advertisement was a different story. It was more than just...
While Holocaust survivors are often traumatized for life as a result of the horrors they have endured, it is a well-known fact that their children and even their grandchildren also frequently suffer bouts of post-traumatic stress disorder, anxiety, and depression. Denial of the Holocaust can trigger such terrible episodes in those who must deal with its memory on a daily basis. Tuesday’s advertisement, though the result of a mistake, was inappropriate for its potential to reopen the wounds of the past for the victims of the present...
