Classmates say Solomon, whom most people call T.J., came to school on Thursday morning bearing the weight of a break-up with his girlfriend and wearing a determined stare. Stacey Singleton, a junior at Heritage, calls it a "hate look," scary enough that when she spotted Solomon and his rifle as he entered the school, she tried to melt into a phone stall she was using. "I just gripped the phone and knew that something really, really bad was going to start," she says...

My mom received the crash course tour of Harvard's dining system as we ran to pick up food from Adams and the central kitchens, pushing carts of bagels and juice for the conference through the streets of Harvard Square.

But Islamabad's protestations of innocence are dismissed in New Delhi, which insists that an incursion of this scale could not have been undertaken without active Pakistani military involvement. Thursday's shoot-down is taken by India as further proof of Pakistani complicity. The countries have fought two of their three wars in the past five decades over Kashmir. But now that they're armed with nuclear weapons, leaders on both sides face the complex challenge of retaliating ever more...
