...significant number - but not everywhere. At TIME's request, Economy.com ran the numbers for 54 metro areas and compared their current price-to-rent ratios to what their ratios have been over the past 15 years. The result: in 21 cities, renting still looks to be the better bargain. Among the renter-friendly outposts are Baltimore; Raleigh and Charlotte, N.C.; Salt Lake City; San Antonio; Trenton, N.J.; Philadelphia; Honolulu; Seattle; and Portland...
...Kennedy School Professor Mark H. Moore, who served on the original committee that drafted the report, will chair the University committee comprised of faculty, staff, students, and Harvard police representatives. The announcement did not clarify the specific responsibilities of the safety committee. The University did not respond to a request for comment over the weekend. University Ombudsman Lydia L.

In addition to implementing the recommendations, the announcement stated that the University...

The Vatican's official newspaper L'Osservatore Romano reported Kennedy's death, praising his work on civil rights and fighting poverty, but noted that his record...
...dilemma isn't as stark as has been posed in recent press accounts, with screamers on the right demanding slavish devotion to the military's wish list and screamers on the left demanding a withdrawal. The U.S. military has become far more ... nuanced when it comes to making requests of Presidents. The negotiations about what McChrystal can officially request will not take place anywhere near the public eye. It is very likely that more troops will be sent - to build and train the Afghan security forces, it will be said. Obama's problems on the left will be mitigated...
