Elsewhere, such programs do exist. For example, under the auspices of the Homeowners' Emergency Mortgage Assistance Program, Pennsylvania will loan its residents up to $60,000 over the course of two years in the wake of life events such as losing a job or falling severely ill.

...take the film on its own terms. But in the spectrum between the aestheticized nostalgia of Spike Jonze’ “Where the Wild Things Are” and the ambitious visual and emotional scope of the latest releases from Pixar Studios, the film feels slightly ill at ease.

...school has 1,500 students grades 1-12. If something happens, says Atiq ur-Rahman, a chemistry teacher, the school is ill equipped to protect its students.

...Woods is equally ill suited to the kind of kimono-opening demanded by this approach. He has always been prickly with the press about his personal life. So his statements have trickled out piecemeal - the worst way. "I don't see him going Oprah," says Kevin Sullivan, a former White House communications director who now runs his own p.r. firm. "And I don't think he should provide any details of what went...
