...million users. But consumers have taken a liking to online money management, mostly because it's free. Microsoft stopped developing its Money program in June, and Intuit started offering Quicken Online for free in October 2008. Banks, too, have started to offer a similar service to their customers, but somehow, having an outside party monitor your bank seems like a better idea. Mint makes some money - it's unclear how much - by recommending credit cards or investment vehicles under its "Ways to Save" option. If you sign up with one of them, the site gets...

...some outside players remain stuck in the same old ruts. A SADC summit this month in Kinshasa somehow contrived to remove Zimbabwe - the most pressing issue facing the region - from its agenda, resolving merely that a committee of three SADC members would "review" progress on power-sharing between Mugabe and Tsvangirai. Mugabe himself continues to delay the formation of a unity government, while his top brass seem focused on squirreling away as much cash as they can for as long as they are able. Mugabe's foot soldiers continue to harass, imprison and murder MDC activists. (See pictures of political...

...same time, the effort implicitly carries the UC’s stamp of approval, involves UC members, and was founded with UC resources, so the ongoing failure of this project will continue to damage the UC’s reputation. And even if this new iteration of the campaign somehow manages to raise money, we are wholly unconvinced that the property at 45 Mount Auburn Street is the solution to Harvard’s social space woes. The UC, and the College at large, should look to more immediate, pragmatic ways to improve social space, such as focusing on house...

...nation's capital is naive enough to think that President Barack Obama's address before Congress Wednesday evening, Sept. 9, was somehow, in one fell swoop, going to overcome all the opposition to health-care reform, the power of his rhetoric winning over skeptics like a latter-day Mr. Smith Goes to Washington. But after the President's impassioned, 47-minute speech drew thunderous applause and improved poll ratings, even some of the most jaded Democrats may have allowed themselves to think that maybe Obama's oratory really was a "game changer," as Senate majority leader Harry Reid...

Even before the POGO letter to Secretary Clinton, the ArmorGroup contract was under scrutiny. The State Department issued the first of eight "deficiency letters" in July 2007, the same month ArmorGroup took over embassy security. But after each complaint, the company somehow persuaded the State Department that the problems were being addressed. In April 2008 the State Department's contracting officer warned this was the company's "final opportunity" to correct shortcomings, and a September 2008 letter declared termination was being considered. In the end, however, the department renewed the contract until July...
