Microsoft says it will introduce its new search engine within the next few days. The world's largest software company has called the project Kumo. It may change that name before the public sees it.

On a Saturday morning, two thirtyish sisters who had been up all night partying slouched in the sun against one of many vacant storefronts lining Center Avenue. They said they were afraid they might be picked up by the police and tossed in jail.
