...this spirit, the University should take action on two fronts: First, the graduate schools ought to compile and distribute data about private lenders unprivileged by preferred status; and second, a written policy should be published on financial aid Web sites stating that the University and its officials will reject kickback payments and other gifts as part of transparent negotiation processes. Only by doing so will students be able to make informed decisions about the best loan programs tailored to their needs. Because the burden of protecting students falls on the University, it is imperative that they be scrupulous in carrying...
...Iraq's government to disband sectarian militias and other goals aimed at preventing a civil war - all the while making it clear that U.S. patience has limits.

They throw them into fountains; they put them in the “take a penny, leave a penny” dish. But we don’t take the penny seriously as a unit of currency; when someone...
...reality that this is a different world from the one that existed during the cold war--and the established powers are at sea in trying to cope with it. Defense intellectuals like Thrse Delpech, director of strategic affairs at the Atomic Energy Commission in France, reject classic deterrence theory as a model for today's nuclear age. "The new actors, such as Ahmadinejad or Kim, are much more prone to act [impulsively] rather than like the United States or the Soviet Union" during the cold war, she asserts. And even if that's not true--Iran's Ayatullahs...
