Unfortunately, Larson feels that the suggestion that community members should avail themselves of the shuttle bus and escort van is a “dismissal.” However, the HUPD does believe that the shuttle bus and escort van, as well as SafetyWalk, are reasonable and sensible alternatives to walking alone at night. Rather than waiting in the dark for a shuttle bus, a person can call for an Evening Shuttle Van or a SafetyWalk escort, which are available on demand. See the HUPD website at www.hupd.harvard.edu or “Playing It Safe” for specific information...
...which are collectively known as the Louis Vuitton Cup. But all was not well on dockside. Frustrated by initial losses, syndicate head Patrizio Bertelli, husband of Italian fashion designer Miuccia Prada, fired the yacht's design director, Doug Peterson, and took overall charge of design himself. But to little avail: Prada are lying sixth, making a comeback now very unlikely. Skipper Francesco de Angelis reflected: "Everything will be difficult here.

Despite the bleak economic signals, the never-say-die ethos that propelled some job seekers to success in the first place refuses to let them give up.

Quan, single and in her 40s, has only a few months' worth of living expenses left in her nest...

The student body is expendable and the administration behaves accordingly. Almost 20,000 kids applied to Harvard last year and the administration only needs 1,600 or so to fill all the beds (not that...
...suggest it will model healthy behavior, and many celebrated the decision as a victorious springboard towards improving the health of students in southern California. Lack of soda in the schools’ vending machines, they argue, will reduce consumption of the unhealthy, sugar-and-sodium-laden drink, avail other beverage choices and change the way students think about food. But the change in no way prevents students from bringing soda from home or from consuming soda on campus. Many students in the urban Los Angeles school district already opt to eat off campus at lunch, where an array of healthy...
