...Perhaps most importantly, HUDS will have to be responsive to student needs to earn their business. This means that they will have to operate at the hours that are convenient to students. A 2005 Undergraduate Council survey found that 87 percent of students would prefer to eat dinner after 7:15 p.m. (the current closing time of River Houses) at least five days a week. If HUDS had to compete for student business, it would almost certainly stay open till 8:30 or 9:00 p.m. to draw late-dining residents. Similarly, a HUDS responsive to student tastes would...

Staying physically active is a good idea, especially for kids, but too much exercise can be harmful to young joints and tender muscles, particularly at the team-sports level.

Kids 10 years or younger have to stop after 75 pitches, and anytime a Little Leaguer throws more than 21 times, he has to give his arm at least one day to recover...

Despite all the long bus trips--the average ride for Jefferson County students is about 45 min.--77% of Jefferson County parents agreed that guidelines should be used to ensure diversity, according to a survey conducted in 2000 by the University of Kentucky. The district also assiduously tracks the percentage of the county's school-age children who attend public school, and in recent years, when private schools were gaining students nationwide, Jefferson County's public schools were inching up in "market share," from...
...pollution woes are ruining its attraction as a place to live and work. One fear is that multinational firms that have made Hong Kong their Asian base will increasingly decamp for cleaner locales-particularly Singapore, dubbed the best city for Asian expatriates in a recent quality-of-life survey by human-resources consultant ECA International. Hong Kong dropped from 20th to 32nd in the study, largely due to pollution...
