Over the past few weeks, the U.S. newspaper industry has entered a new period of decline. The parent of the papers in Philadelphia declared bankruptcy, as did the Journal Register chain. The Rocky Mountain News closed, and the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, owned by Hearst, will almost certainly close or only publish online. Hearst has said it will also close the San Francisco Chronicle if it cannot make massive cuts. The most recent rumor is that the company will lay off half the editorial staff. Still, that action may not be enough to make the property profitable...
...York Daily News is one of several large papers fighting for circulation and advertising in the New York City area. Unlike the New York Times, the New York Post, Newsday and Newark's Star-Ledger, the Daily News is not owned by a larger organization - real estate billionaire Mort Zuckerman owns the paper.

Harvard protected the ball by keeping it on the perimeter, patiently waiting to feed the post players when they established inside position. Forwards such as Claire Wheeler, Emma Moretzsohn, and Katie Rollins had impressive games, dominating the paint by grabbing boards on both ends of the floor and combining for 24 points and 20 rebounds. The Crimson outscored Brown 40-20 in the paint over the course...
...after Saturday's murders in Antrim, Sinn Fein may be forced to eat their words. During the Troubles, the party normally refused to condemn the murder of security force personnel, but in today's post-conflict Northern Ireland, the rules of the game have changed. The party's president Gerry Adams described the attacks as "wrong and counter-productive." "[The perpetrators] want to destroy the progress of recent times and to plunge Ireland back into conflict", he said...
