Living apart upends traditional notions of marriage, but researchers are beginning to suspect that it's not necessarily a bad thing. Studies show divorce in commuter marriages is no more frequent than in those where the couple is under the same roof. A large Rand Corp. study published last spring based on military personnel found that the longer the deployments, the higher the chance the marriage would stay together--in part because soldiers and their spouses cling to idealized memories of each other during their separations...

...intervention by the U.K government to accomplish. Hoping to stem depositors' panic about the Northern Rock's solvency after it announced last week that it had requested an emergency line of credit from the Bank of England (lengthy lines of customers waiting to withdraw their savings have been a frequent sight outside Northern Rock branches for days), Alistair Darling, Britain's Chancellor of the Exchequer announced yesterday that the government itself would guarantee the bank's customers' money in the (very unlikely) event it failed. His office, he said, would "put in place arrangements that would guarantee all the existing...
