Though Fitzsimmons said that the overall population of American high school seniors will vary relatively little in the next decade, he said that it is unclear how applicant trends will move in higher education in the future...
...Opting the Republicans Obama's shrewdest move, though little noticed at the time, came two weeks ago, when he broadened his long-promised package of tax cuts for individuals to include a larger array of deductions for businesses.

Rwanda's initial response to the allegations was an angry denial. "This report is a calculated move to shift blame away from the government of DRC [Congo] and the international community - both of whom have failed to resolve the conflict in the eastern DRC despite numerous bilateral, regional and international initiatives in the last 14 years," read a Rwandan government statement. Tuesday's invasion can be seen as a follow...
