...Undergraduate Council went live Monday with HarvardHelp.com, a Web site intended to provide undergraduates consolidated access to mental health resources on campus. The site, which includes contact information for campus help organizations like Eating Concerns Hotline and Outreach (ECHO) and Room 13, was originally proposed in April as a part of the UC’s platform for “Mental Health Awareness Month.” Rebecca L. Eshbaugh ’07, co-director of the Room 13 counseling center, credited the new Web site with doing the legwork that previously hindered students’ ability...
...Iranians will bring complaints of their own to Sharm el-Sheikh, and insist that Iraq's security crisis can't be resolved while U.S. forces remain in the country. If Rice is hoping that influential Arab moderates will echo the U.S. position, she may be disappointed.

And Lebanese long accustomed to a tradition of clan blood feuds immediately drew attention to the grievance of the Shamas family, a tough Shi'ite clan originally from a village...
...Palestinians clearly intended to put a damper on the Israeli party mood. Nobody was hurt in the barrage, but the echo of this rocket attack is still resounding. This was the end of an on-again, off-again cease-fire between Israel and radicals within Hamas, the Islamic militant group that is partners in a coalition government with President Mahmoud Abbas's Fatah movement. An armed wing of Hamas said it launched the rocket attacks in retaliation for the killing of nine Palestinians, including a young girl, during Israeli military operations several days ago in the West Bank towns...
...have withered by now - after all, his centrist Union for a Democratic France (UDF) has only 5% of the seats in the National Assembly. Instead, he has found real traction with his challenge to the endless left-right battle that, he says, has locked French politics into an ideological echo-chamber. Most polls give Bayrou 19% of the vote, putting Royal's lead over him well within the margin of error...
