OPINION | HUTT: What happened at The Game
Max Teirstein ‘21 describes a similarly chaotic and violent scene. When asked if the police treatment was fair, he told me that the police treatment was “not fair,” “totally out of proportion of what was going on” and “pretty disturbing.” When asked if he saw shoving or physical behavior, he responded, “I was shoved pretty hard. It was indiscriminate. It was everybody. Everywhere I looked somebody was getting shoved and thrown around by the police.” He also claimed that he heard and was the recipient of verbal threats from officers.

WSJ Opinion: In 2016 Columbia grad students voted 1,602 to 623 for teaching and research assistants to unionize.

Sarkozy departs Israel amid security scare

The closing ceremony of French President Nicolas Sarkozy's visit to
Israel has been interrupted by the suicide of an Israeli soldier.
The serviceman shot himself on the perimeter of the farewell
ceremony at Tel Aviv's Ben-Gurion airport. Bodyguards hustled
Sarkozy and his wife Carla Bruni-Sarkozy into their plane, while
other security men surrounded Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert and
moved him quickly toward his car.


The Pope’s Real Message for Obama
By JOHN L. ALLEN Jr.
The tendency may be to see the Vatican document on bioethics as a plan for resistance to the Obama administration. In reality, that amounts to trying to shove a square peg into the round hole of American politics.

BAGHDAD — Five American service members were killed at a counseling center on an American military base in Baghdad on Monday, gunned down by a fellow soldier who was later taken into custody, military officials said.

The association urged its members to cut off all loans to the academy and forgo any collaborations.
To the academy’s leadership, such censure was not only an indignity but also a shove for an institution on a financial precipice. The academy has been running a deficit for five years, and this year’s shortfall is estimated at around $1 million. It has a $4 million annual operating budget.




Solar energy

Seeing red

Jan 8th 2009
From The Economist print edition

To make solar cells more efficient, sprinkle them with silver


MAKERS of solar cells face a dilemma. Purified silicon, the basic material of such cells, is expensive. The temptation, therefore, is to use less of it. As a result, the makers have developed a generation of cells whose silicon layers are only a micron or two deep, as opposed to the usual thickness of 200-300 microns. The thinner the cell, however, the less efficient it is. In particular, thin cells fail to capture much light at the red end of the spectrum. That means they produce up to 20% less electricity than standard cells of equivalent area. And that negates some of the advantage of their initial cheapness.
Idioms: see red
Become very angry, as in I saw red when I learned they had not invited Tom and his family. The precise allusion in this term is not known, but it probably refers to the longstanding association of the color red with passion and anger. [Colloquial; c. 1900]
