...traitor to his fine education.” Classmate Walter Russell Bowie, class of 1904, noted “the rancorous and almost hysterical political animus which rose against him and what he stood for among the privileged groups to which many of the Harvard graduates happened to belong.” Despite his cool reception on campus, FDR invited Harvard men to the White House throughout his presidency, once shaking the hands of two dozen Crimson oarsmen after a race in Annapolis, according to an article in Harvard Magazine. Among them was polio patient Tommy Hunter, whom Roosevelt, himself...
Simone and Roberto have been friends forever, but now they belong to opposing factions in the Camorra Mob. "I'm telling you," one warns the other, "if you don't change sides, we might kill you. Or you might kill us. Because we're at war. People are dying every day." The mortal rivals give each other a final farewell kiss on the cheek; they're boys of about...
...trait that evolved only in mammals. One of the key proteins in our hair is known as alpha-keratin. Not long ago, some Austrian and Italian researchers decided to search for alpha-keratin genes in animals that lack hair. They found those genes in chickens and lizards - which belong to the closest living lineages to mammals. Lizards build alpha-keratin in their claws. And it turns out that mammals do as well. The research suggests that the hairless ancestors of today's mammals already had alpha-keratin that was used to build their claws; only later was alpha-keratin borrowed...

So it might come as something of a shock to hear Dan Auerbach...
...programs in which the Congressional Budget Offices estimated that less than 10% of funds would be spent in the first 18 months. From that list they selected about $100 billion in programs, mostly in education, state aid and science that, while perhaps worthy pursuits, they don't believe belong in the stimulus bill. At the same time, the coalition has also agreed to add another $30 billion in infrastructure spending that the group does see as stimulative...
