...doing,” Anene said. “We’re going to fund the shuttles this year and have vigorous negotiations with the President’s office to follow.” When reached last night, University spokesman John Longbrake said he could not confirm the change in funding. Harvard Fun Czar John T. Drake ’06, whose Office of Student Activities is planning Harvard-Yale festivities, said he agreed that the UC should pay for the increased shuttle services because of the high costs of The Game. “With the tailgate...

(Saito paid $82.5 million for Portrait of Dr. Gachet.) Dotcom entrepreneurs with Internet funny money bought Impressionists and Pop Art. Today a new generation of hedge-fund billionaires and Chinese and Russian kleptocrats is part...
