  • Debating Diversity Following the Widely Publicized Deaths of Black Tape
    KENNEDY SCHOOL, UNDER CONSTRUCTION. The Harvard Kennedy School aims to build students’ capacity for better public policy, wise democratic governance, international amity, and more. Now it is addressing its own capacity issues (as described at harvardmag.com/ hks-16). In January, as seen across Eliot Street from the northeast (opposite page), work was well under way to raise the level of the interior courtyard, install utility space in a new below-grade level, and erect a four-story “south building.” The project will bridge the Eliot Street opening between the Belfer (left) and Taubman (right) buildings with a new “gateway” structure that includes faculty offices and other spaces. The images on this page (above and upper right) show views diagonally across the courtyard from Taubman toward Littauer, and vice versa. Turning west, across the courtyard toward the Charles Hotel complex (right), affords a look at the current open space between buildings; the gap is to be filled with a new, connective academic building, including classrooms.

  • PILGRIMAGE a Project of Lorelei, Unplugged
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Jonah Kappraff, [email protected] 862-205-9563 Cambridge, MA- April 22, 2013 PILGRIMAGE a project of Lorelei, unPLUGGED Friday, May 10 BU, Marsh Chapel 735 Commonwealth Avenue Boston, MA 8pm Purchase Tickets at: www.loreleiensemble.com $20 General Admission/$12 Students/Seniors The eight women of Boston’s Lorelei Ensemble announce the third concert series of their 2012- 13 season featuring music of Hildegard von Bingen and Guillaume Du Fay alongside the premiere of two new multimedia works by composer/videographer collaborators Reiko Yamada/Sibylle Irma and Isaac Schankler/Chris O’Leary. The program will be presented on Friday, January 10 at Boston University’s Marsh Chapel (8pm). Pilgrimage, a project of Lorelei’s new unPLUGGED multimedia series, explores concepts of spirituality and pilgrimage from ancient and contemporary perspectives. Consistent with Lorelei’s commitment to programming early and new music side-by-side, small ensembles set the stage for each half of the program with the music of Hildegard von Bingen and Guillaume Du Fay. Selected responsories from Hildegard’s Scivias portray some of the composer’s earliest visions. Hildegard’s transcendent melodies elevate the already rich symbolism in her deeply rooted poetry. The strength and optimism of Guillaume Du Fay’s motet Rite Majorem reflect its ties to the service for St. James the Greater, patron saint of pilgrims. His shrine at Santiago de Compostela in Northwest Spain continues to be a destination for Christian pilgrims from around the world. The World Premiere of two new works commissioned by the ensemble explore both secular and sacred concepts of spirituality: The Familiar Spirit (2013) turns the first recorded instance of "spirit-rapping" communication into a series of poetic vignettes that explore the spiritual and social significance of the medium in the 19th-century.

We studied the health benets and risks associated with Baltic herring and salmon in four countries to identify critical uncertainties and to facilitate an evidence-based discussion. Methods We performed an online survey investigating consumers' sh consumption and its motivation in Denmark, Estonia, Finland, and Sweden. Dioxin and methylmercury concentrations were estimated based on Finnish studies. Exposure-response functions for several health endpoints were evaluated and quantied based on the scientic literature. We also quantied the infertility risk of men based on a recent European risk assessment estimating childhood dioxin exposure and its effect on sperm concentration later in life.
