...escalate the clash between the proponents of change and the traditional bureaucracy. As President Bok’s exit date approaches and the activists’ prime opportunity comes to a close, it’s likely that the Harvard community will discover if this episode is just another rerun in the College’s history of calendar reform...
...down more than 400 points, its biggest single-day drop since Sept. 17, 2001-the first trading session after the terrorist attacks of 9/11. The drop in New York, in turn, fueled fear in markets across Asia the following day, and suddenly investors were seized by visions of a rerun of 1997's "Asian contagion," when a financial crisis in Thailand triggered stock crashes from Jakarta to Moscow to New York.

With the Haditha revelations threatening to fuel antipathy toward U.S. troops, military officials have fanned out across Iraq to rerun all the old drills about rules of engagement for Marine Corps and Army units. Marine Corps rules of engagement require personnel on patrol to follow a four-step procedure to distinguish friend from foe. It's an easy mnemonic: Shout. Show. Shove. Shoot.
