...tried to contact company officials at UNICCO and SSI, Harvard's current outsourcers, with mixed success. SSI referred me to their president, Ed Silvey, who repeatedly did not return my calls. Walter W. Crow, the in-house counsel for UNICCO, faxed me a statement that "UNICCO pays its full time employees throughout Cambridge a wage not less than $9.20 an hour" and that they also receive pension and health insurance.

...Booth, a publicist in Cardiff-by-the-Sea, Calif., had her face fully resurfaced by a laser two years ago, just before turning 50, to eliminate smile lines, wrinkles on her forehead, frown lines between the brows and crow's-feet around her eyes.
