...Another way to make sure every citizen counts? Count them. Literally. Yet some countries don't collect ethnic data in their census and those that do are often behind the curve. Britain introduced a mixed-race category to its census in 2001, only to discover that it was already the country's fastest-growing ethnic minority group. It's illegal to collect data on ethnicity or religion in France, Belgium, Denmark, Italy and Spain, mainly on the grounds that identifying people by their race or faith is, in itself, a form of discrimination.

Skipping through the aisles, the small army not-so-inconspicuously jotted down ISBN numbers of books for sale. Their hope was to collect these numbers for Crimsonreading.com, their own Web site that acts as a portal for online booksellers, which often sell textbooks (the same as the Coop’s) at much lower prices. The site does make a commission, though it donates its proceeds to charity. Coop employees would have none...
...last minute.”A select number traveled to New Haven on Friday night for the Giengengack Invitational and turned in their best performances of the season. Another contingent will head to Boston University today for the Indoor vs. Multi Team Meet. Sophomore Becky Christensen continued to collect records as she bettered the year-old meet record of 1.70 meters with a jump of 1.75 meters. Christensen, who is currently ranked 11th in the nation in the high jump, was coming off a personal best jump of 1.80 meters in the tri-meet against Brown and Cornell...
