Attention holiday shoppers: Returning all those silly snowflake sweaters, that fifth pair of Isotoners or that Chia Pet is about to get a little tougher. Retailers have been tightening their policies and relying on computer authorization systems to track and limit returns and exchanges, and this year they're even more aware of fraudulent returns.

This swelling of campaign war chests has improved the quality of this year’s race by allowing candidates to focus on communicating their ideas instead...
...learned a great deal about Banerji and Lee at this year’s UC debate for presidential and vice-presidential candidates. In total, the pair spoke for longer than either Magnus Grimeland ’07 and Thomas D. Hadfield ’08, John S. Haddock ’07 and Annie R. Riley ’07, or John F. Voith ’07 and Tara Gadgil ’07, all of whom are candidates for office. Banerji and Lee, sadly...
