...plan’s failure to answer these questions is not merely a matter of benign vagueness, which Nobel Prize-winning economist Paul Krugman has called “no harm, no foul.” It is rather a watershed moment that could determine the future of this potential public-private relationship as the United States continues to grapple with recession. Like Harrison’s hasty actions in March 1933, Geithner’s imprecision risks alienating those with whom he hopes to partner...
...four hard-earned points from under the basket. Cornell was strong from beyond the arc, racking up more than half of their overall points from 3-point range. Agile Big Red guard Lauren Benson silenced the crowd multiple times after draining jumpers from downtown. But Harvard always had an answer for Cornell’s sharpshooting. Tay and Markley led the Crimson early as they crafted a 15-3 run that ended midway through the second half. In the opening minutes, Cornell’s Benson sunk a long jumper and dished to forward Shanna Scarselletta for an easy layup...
...Obama's presidential campaign. On the floor of the Democratic National Convention last summer, Newsom told TIME that he hoped to run in 2010 - but first he wanted to see if voters would embrace Obama's campaign focus on youth and generational change.

But on Sunday, as if resigned to the idea that he would keep on asking until he got the answer he wanted, voters said yes. Venezuela's second constitutional referendum in 14 months was approved by a resounding 54% to 45% margin, allowing Chávez to run for a third six-year term in 2012 and perhaps others after that...
...count every person in the United States, and some communities are disproportionately left out of the total. The 1990 census missed an estimated 8 million people - mostly immigrants and urban minorities - and it managed to double-count 4 million white Americans. Recent or illegal immigrants are often reluctant to answer questions in a government survey, and many experts fear that concerns about government misuse of personal data post-9/11 could hamper participation in the 2010 census as well. Children have also traditionally been underincluded in census totals...
