...exceedingly unlikely that it will be picked up. Look at Fiona Apple’s recent (non)release, Extraordinary Machine. Say what you will about Ms. Apple’s merits, the fact of the matter is she’s got a talent that does not mesh with what her label (Sony) wants in a saleable product, and so the album has been shelved for years...
...already plenty of services at Harvard that sharpen the differences between socioeconomic classes. Harvard Student Agency Cleaners, for example, lets some students pick up clean and neatly-folded clothes in crackling plastic bags. The less well-off among us, however, make semi-weekly journeys to the basement with bulging mesh laundry bags and quarters in hand. These differences extend to the social sphere as well—to final clubs composed predominately of wealthy young men, or to basic activities, like eating out, that some students cannot afford to enjoy.

That's the idea behind the CorCap Cardiac Support Device, a mesh wrap fashioned to fit like a support stocking around the heart to relieve the stress created when the organ becomes enlarged, usually from trying to compensate for damage caused by heart attacks, valve disorders or high blood pressure. In a study of 300 patients, the CorCap reportedly helped enlarged hearts return to a more normal size and shape. The cardiac support hose is still experimental, and implanting it involves...
