...According to organizers, around 7,000 people gathered at the Yard to enjoy Ben Folds’ student-friendly performance, as well as a variety of games. Indeed, Yardfest was a job well done by the Dean’s Office and the Harvard Concert Commission. Stars seemed to align like they haven’t for past concerts as the cooperation of great weather and better music started to ease the pain of Snoop and Wyclef’s no-shows. Even the underwhelming culinary options had a certain charm on this Sunday eve. Folds’ songs proved...

While before we may have had fewer deeper friendships—those select few enabled by sheer force of will to last over great distances—now we have many weaker ones: people we talk to once in a blue moon when our schedules align (who hasn’t gone through their buddy list at 3 a.m. while putting off a paper?) but otherwise go months without contacting...

Labor, for example, says it wants a negotiated peace with the Palestinians. Labor leader Amir Peretz said he is in favor of dismantling Jewish settlements in the West Bank. But this will cause pain among those...
...question of how to lower the cost of labor speaks to major differences between the two partners in the coalition. Laurenz Meyer, a former secretary-general of the cdu and current economics expert in the Bundestag, says that since last year's elections, the spd has been looking "to align [itself] with the unions" even more strongly than before. It's not been a winning strategy. According to the latest Forsa poll, backing for the party is down to 28%, from 39% six months ago (Merkel's cdu stands at 38%). The spd is also suffering fallout from the tarnished...
