...that man over there," she said, pointing to a retailer from a major department store lunching at a nearby table. "He won't even give me the time of day, but you'll see, in a few years he'll be eating out of my hand." Lo and behold, these many years later, DVF has built the empire back up with the same simple concept she launched in 1975 when she introduced her jersey wrap dress for $75. It's a bit more expensive nowadays, but it's as fashionable and ubiquitous as it was thirty years ago. And there...
...Untutored in mathematics, we felt that the times have changed and that the fact of past expansion has little to do with possibilities for future growth. Leaving the past to President Pusey, Dean Bundy occupied himself with the future. Knowingly, he predicted a tuition rise last October. Lo and behold, in January the prediction came true, as tuition rose to $1000 for next year. We congratulated Dean Bundy for his oracular powers, and suggested that perhaps tuition should have risen even higher—simultaneously, of course, with scholarship aid. We approved the extension of the Lamont Library hours...

These are simple lessons that we learned (or should have learned) in kindergarten, but in light of Kaavya’s plagiarism controversy, it is obvious that there are many of us at Harvard, and elsewhere, who need to be reminded of this. Behold the glee and malice in a Gawker quote, “Let’s just sum it all up with the obvious: Isn’t it kind of awesome to see an overachieving Indian kid finally do something wrong?” Granted, most people were not nearly...
John Mackey fits the profile of a typical green-friendly liberal. He is a vegan, practices yoga, and wears hiking boots to work. Behold the founder and CEO of Whole Foods, Mecca for believers in organic foods, which was recently recognized as one of America’s most valuable companies according to BusinessWeek Magazine (and its stock multiple has at times surpassed even Google’s). But principles still come before profits in this natural food empire: Five percent of profits are donated to local communities and environmental causes; stockholders are given third priority behind customers and employees...
