...wrote in an e-mail. The fire travelled quickly through the wood frame building, facilitated by its hollow walls, Gialanis said. He added that the house collapsed when fire crews removed the second floor in an attempt to prevent the walls from caving in. Harvard has not determined the extent of the damage, Wrinn said, and has not decided what it will do with the property. The cold temperature—a frigid 12 degrees—also affected the operation, reported Gialanis. Two firemen were sent to Mt. Auburn hospital after slipping on the ice. The injuries were...

Ruback, who is also a senior associate dean at HBS and Smith Professor of Corporate Finance, said in an interview yesterday that the review of HBS’s grade disclosure policy was part of a wider effort to improve...

Following on from earlier skull morphology work by other researchers, Wilton's test has been ringing alarm bells about the extent of hybridization, confirming a collapse in pure dingo numbers throughout much of south-eastern Australia. And there's plenty more work to be done: one of the problems hindering efforts to manage dingoes is the lack of data on their numbers or the national spread of hybridization, particularly across vast stretches...

...continuation of this trend could pose a serious problem for Asia. The region needs super-competitive currencies in order to keep its export-led growth model humming. To the extent the surprisingly robust dollar drags Asian currencies along for the ride, Asia's exports will become more expensive. Without support from internal consumption, further dollar strengthening could turn the region's export boom into a bust, a devastating development for growth...
