...invented navy blue," said Giorgio Armani. The T.V. cameras were rolling in his attic office on the via Borgonuovo as the designer was carefully describing his power position in the fashion world to Estelle Colin, a French television journalist preparing an hour-long documentary on Armani. OK, so navy blue (and also beige) do essentially belong to Armani in fashion terms, especially during his heyday in the '70s and '80s when, as he puts it, he "gave something to women who work." And his show on Monday was a success precisely because he went back to those old blues...
...Institute of Politics all day long shaking the hands of politicians, dignitaries and world leaders, but it’s not going to teach me anything about the real lives of billions of people. Students are willing to give a figure at the JFK Forum an hour of undivided attention, but how many of them spare a couple of minutes to consider illiterate people living on under $2 a day, or even Harvard janitors and dining hall workers? We can pretend that the small elite around Harvard is the whole world, but we’d just be wasting four...

Eventually, Idle recalls, "I became the Grand President and changed the laws and admitted women" - Germaine Greer was one of his first recruits - "and I've been admitting women ever since...
...athletic facilities lagging far behind its peers, we are looking forward to be greeted next fall by a new MAC.The MAC has needed renovation for longer than most current students have been here. In the spring of 2004, it had become almost unbearable. Students told stories of waiting an hour and a half for a thirty minute timeslot on the treadmill. During the summer of 2004, the MAC was given a quick-fix $2 million renovation, funded by the College, which nearly doubled its space and equipment and silenced the outcry. But while this was a nice facelift, it didn?...
