...Otto Hagen, president of Reck's HOA in Wake Forest, N.C., notified him that a neighbor had complained about his line. The Recks ignored the warning and still dry their clothes on a rope that extends from their swing set to a pole across the yard. "Many people claim to be environmentally friendly but don't take matters into their own hands," says Reck, 37. HOA's Hagen has decided to hold off taking action. "I'm not going to go crazy," he says. "But if Matt keeps his line and more neighbors complain, I'll have to address...

...Harvard, hard-left radicals, led by Professor J. Lorand Matory ’82, claim that they are being muzzled. At last week’s Faculty meeting, Matory alleged that critics of Israel like him “tremble in fear” when they express their views at Harvard. He submitted a motion to resolve that “this Faculty commits itself to fostering civil dialogue in which people with a broad range of perspectives feel safe and are encouraged to express their reasoned and evidence-based ideas...

Grace Kelly, Maria Callas and Gianni Agnelli toted the streamlined, masterfully designed luggage.

A bit impractical for the average traveler, white reinforced...

...criticism regarding a controversial issue veiled by an appeal to the principle of free speech in general. As law professor Alan M. Dershowitz argued, Matory “is misusing freedom of speech and academic freedom to make an ideological argument.” Matory disingenuously couched his unpopular claim within a meaningless statement in favor of an ideal that virtually all faculty members would support. This is not the way that dialogue on this, or any other issue, should proceed at Harvard. Instead of dressing his argument up in the guise of free speech, Matory and others who agree...

...interest of their health. The university, for its part, committed to changing its Major Cultures course to a seminar and to involving students in the process for hiring Ethnicity and Race professors. Nevertheless, the issues of expansion and increased hate-crime enforcement seem unresolved as ever. The strikers claim that they will continue their dissent in other forms. To starve oneself for a cause involves a great deal of resolve, conviction and (possibly misplaced) ardor. In the interest of protest’s legitimacy and its success, we hope that this amount of passion goes into less severe and lurid...
