Not to beat a dead horse, but I think our BlitzMail system is one of the most evil creations this world has ever seen. Since my freshman fall last year I have probably sent at least 8,000 blitzes. Since the first day of classes this fall I have sent 173, and I've been deliberately trying to avoid blitzing whenever possible. I tell you this just so you understand that I have some small knowledge in this area, despite all those brain cells I've reportedly been killing lately.
Investigators searching for the 40-foot-long Lear jet that disappeared while attempting to land at Lebanon Airport on December 24 are now concentrating their efforts in northwestern Massachusetts, based on a recent review of flight information and eyewitness interviews.
The College's e-mail system shut down for about two hours last Thursday, when a student sent "The Weekend Blitz" to thousands of students -- an incident that may have violated the College's computing code.
If one proposal for the new Berry Library is approved, the Kiewit Computation Center will be demolished, Director of Facilities Planning Gordon DeWitt said yesterday.
Although half of the construction work on Ledyard Bridge will be completed within the month, the traffic bottlenecks on West Wheelock Street aren't likely to improve until next year.
A U.S. District Court in New York yesterday ordered The Princeton Review to paste stickers over misleading statements on the covers of thousands of the test preparation books the company sells to high school and college students.
Actress Meryl Streep, known for her touching and genuine roles in such cinema classics as "Out of Africa" and "The Bridges of Madison County," will be the recipient of the Dartmouth Film Award in a tribute to her and her works on October 18 in Spaulding Auditorium of the Hopkins Center.
"But it is summer," you said. "I don't want to think about my aliens. I want to laugh at them, be scared by them or simply watch Will Smith destroy them. I can't be bothered with questions of science, theology and the unifying factors of the universe, I just want to see Harrison Ford kick butt and John Travolta cry."
For the third time in as many years, the Dartmouth women's soccer team has had new faces behind its bench at the start of the season.
As the line-ups were announced for the women's soccer game at Chase Field yesterday, it sounded like the Big Green was playing the Scandinavian national team and not the University of Hartford. The Hawks had six very good Scandinavian players on their roster and the number one ranking in New England. But after 120 minutes of play, the Hawks and the ninth-ranked Big Green both settled for a scoreless tie pushing Dartmouth's record to 3-2-1 (2-1-0 Ivy) and Hartford's to 6-1-1.
If any of you have been down to Lone Pine Tavern so far this term, you are well aware that a summer augmentation of the menu has almost doubled the number of offerings served last spring. This expansion included not only more of Lone Pine's trademark sandwiches, but also a diversification of offerings including salads, personal pizzas, and made to order baked potatoes. Sounds great, right? The only table service establishment in Dartmouth Dining Services (DDS) now has a much-improved menu to go along with its famous cream sodas, beer and wine offerings, and tavern atmosphere. Your options are considerably lessened, though, when you get to ordering and find out from your friendly waiter or waitress that half of the offerings on the menu aren't even in stock.

It has been amusing to read the responses to Kenji Hosokawa's article on September 24, in which he was charitable enough to venture to the freshmen a few words of advice about how to manage their four years here. The response to his advice as far as I can tell has been uniformly negative, as if he broke some ancient taboo or defiled some sacred idol. As at least two different writers responding to Hosokawa's article have informed us by now, money isn't everything in life, or even the main thing. What's important is to sit back and enjoy one's college education and "expand" one's horizons.
The Hanover Zoning Board has rejected a local resident's request that the College be forced to seek special permission to build a 5,400 square-foot Rugby clubhouse on Reservoir Road, one mile north of campus.
A group of Dartmouth mathematics professors is spending its federal grant money in a silly way.
Three days after a 15-year-old girl was attacked and sexually assaulted in broad daylight on a popular hiking trail three miles from Dartmouth, Lebanon Police are urging local residents to use due caution in secluded areas.
Our very own flower in the tundra, Iceland's Bjork is anything but conventional.
