Another team that's trying hard to get back on track is Penn (6-8, 2-2), which has won its last two Ivy games, but lost its last three non-conference matches. The latest of the latter group was a 3-0 defeat by No. 6 Maryland. On Saturday, however, the Quakers rebounded to beat the Brown Bears, 2-1. Penn next battles an interstate rival, No. 12 Penn State, today, before closing out its season with games against Yale and Princeton...

But on a visit to Budapest this past summer, all I heard were complaints: the gap between rich and poor was widening, and most people felt closer to the latter than the former. One woman in her forties, who works for a new "capitalist" enterprise, told me: "I come from a working-class family. Before 1989, my parents and I could count on several weeks' vacation each year.
