...individual researchers, working collaboratively with the Harvard Office of Technology Development, occasionally make the news with access-savvy agreements, most of Harvard’s closed-door licensing deals do not include terms for global access. In place of this patchwork approach, Harvard has the potential to implement a broad, forward-looking, and relatively cost-neutral licensing policy that would ensure appropriate access measures for the technology we create...
...Moscarini and Postel-Vinay have another theory. After observing the same broad trend within different industries and states, and even overseas in countries like Denmark and Brazil, they postulate that small companies hire disproportionately more early on in an economic recovery because it's easy for these firms to find good workers while unemployment is still high-and easy for workers to come across small companies since there are so many of them.

...Both the rant and the laments are too broad. Not everyone who has fallen behind on a mortgage is a loser complicit in the housing collapse.

When racial stereotypes aren?...
...preparation of a model for a photo shoot. The resulting portraits are eerily similar. The taut expressions of the pig-skin figures are reminiscent of faces fastened by Botox injections; the flesh-strip lips pucker like mouths making kissing motions at the camera. One portrait, “Crazy Broad,” which features a figure dressed in a fur coat and paparazzi-shielding glasses, could almost have come out of the pages of “US Weekly”—were it not betrayed by the flat stare of pig eyes. By crafting these physical...
