...just the “lucky” residents of DeWolfe and Jordan. The candidates, however, should carefully ponder whether or not they support such a plan: not because of issues of cost, but instead because of the impact it would have on the Harvard community. Although many students gripe about the lack of cable in individual rooms, the limiting of cable to dormitory common areas turns television from a solitary experience into a highly social...
...side of the screen. The power button is on the back. The speakers are hidden on the bottom, designed to bounce sound off your desk.

To some extent, he succeeded in making a plausible connection between his tax cuts and the robust pace of economic growth. "People have more money in their pocket to spend, to save, to invest," he has said. "[Tax relief] is helping the economy recover from tough times." But his efforts to sell a pastiche of programs to help the unemployed have had a tougher time punching through. When it comes to jobs, the numbers fail...
