...Other than the fact that both hail from Minneapolis, what brings this odd couple together is one thing: money. Linking up with an exclusive retailer is not a new idea, but it has proven to be quite a profitable one of late, at least for well-established musicians. The Eagles and AC/DC released their most recent original albums exclusively through Wal-Mart, and in January, Bruce Springsteen gave the chain an exclusive greatest-hits set. Each benefited from massive in-store promotion and stop-the-cart placement - AC/DC's Black Ice sold 1.92 million copies to rank as the fifth...
...Harvard men’s volleyball team (3-5, 1-1 EIVA) took on its fourth top-ranked opponent in Rivier (21-1, 7-0 GNAC) last night at the Malkin Athletic Center and fell to the Raiders 3-0 (30-16, 30-19, 39-37). Although Rivier may hail from the often overlooked Division III Great Northeast Athletic Conference, the team from nearby Nashua, N.H. demonstrated why it deserves to have the number one label next to its name in the NECVA poll. “[Rivier’s] a really good team, with big middle hitters that...

Catholicism, with 67 million followers in the U.S., is big on formulaic repetition of the Hail Mary and "Our Father" variety. But the Vatican is starting to move away from that and toward, according to the church's Manual of Indulgences, a "greater zeal for the exercise of charity...
Again, though, let's not hail a solution as the solution. A targeted tool like loan modification is probably a more useful allocation of resources than a blanket policy like cheaper mortgages. Since half of all repossessed-home sales are in just four states (California, Michigan, Ohio and Florida), we can focus efforts there...
...their similarities, the two women are not personally close and hail from very different backgrounds. Snowe, who turns 62 later this month, was orphaned at the age of 9 when her father, a Greek immigrant cook, died of a heart attack a year after her mother died of cancer. Another tragedy brought her to elective office in 1973, when she filled the seat in Maine's house of representatives that was left vacant by the death of her husband in a car accident. Her second husband, John McKernan, was a colleague of hers in both the legislature and U.S. House...
