...ambitious project, but the charismatic Negroponte has a persuasive pitch and a knack for fund raising. With the support of the U.N., his so-called $100 laptop quickly found backing from, among others, Google, Red Hat, Advanced Micro Devices and Nortel. His team is still making prototypes, but a finished motherboard was delivered in April. A wind-up crank has been replaced by a new foot pedal to supply power in areas lacking electricity...
...Senior Day, and they came into it really fired up. One of the biggest things we’ve learned this year is the necessity to show up emotionally.” Crisp passing was key to the success of the Cornell offense. Of the 14 goals the Big Red scored in open play, nine were assisted. That contrasts with the Harvard offense, which often relies on individual players to create scoring opportunities for themselves.

HANOVER, N.H.—Coming into Saturday’s doubleheader against Dartmouth, the Harvard baseball team had relied on its pitching staff to run up a 10-6 record in the Ivy League record and climb to second place in the Red Rolfe Division.

Fed up with the politics of Turkey's Islamic-rooted government, the so-called White Turks have finally taken to the streets...
...Minami Uonuma City continues to age, Saito's programs may be overwhelmed by demand. His hospital is already $1.2 million in the red, and while the Yairo-en nursing home actually makes money, it's well overbooked, with more people on the waiting list than in the superbly equipped home. The national government has been squeezing health-care subsidies, and Saito worries fears the consequences of millions of Japanese baby boomers reaching retirement age this year. "People like us in the outlying areas are suffering now," he says. "But this will be a major problem in the big cities soon...
