...access to equal opportunities, persons with disabilities remain off of the list of educational institutions that promote inclusionary programs. Do Harvard administrators believe that persons with disabilities are not capable of equal participation? Do Harvard administrators promote a secondary class of citizens because of their disabilities? Why is this subject seldom discussed in public? Why has The Crimson avoided this issue...
...heavy subject of euthanasia Urale next lent a winning mix of lightness and grace in her short Still Life (2001), which brought her more trophies, including top prize at the Montreal Film Festival. The filmmaker focused on an elderly white couple slowly drowning under the weight of illness, neglect from their children, and love for each other. But Urale's tenderness and respect for the aged (her camera caresses their wrinkled skin) are typically Samoan.

...ingredient for a bomb builder is the fissile material--either highly enriched uranium or plutonium--which is difficult to produce secretly. Nuclear-radiation leaks, even in minute quantities, can be detected. But making a nuclear bomb isn't impossible. Under the apartheid regime--at a time when it was subject to international trade sanctions--South Africa managed to build six of them. (Until the breakup of the Soviet Union, South Africa was the only nation to willingly and verifiably give up its entire nuclear arsenal.) Leaving aside North Korea's claims that it possesses the Bomb, there are already seven...
