...nominees from Massachusetts for McDonald’s All-American and the 12th-ranked player from Massachusetts by Rivals.com. These are not titles usually associated with a Harvard recruit. But all that is changing under coach Amaker, who is not new to bringing in coveted recruiting classes. At Seton Hall, after taking his team to the Sweet Sixteen, he boasted the No. 2 recruiting class in the nation in 2000. This year, it’s more of the same.

The most recent financial aid measures have extended these benefits to the middle class: the FAO has eliminated loans and the use of home equity as means to finance educational costs, and has also reduced the cost of attendance to 10 percent of income for families with incomes...
...Antonio is the first in a new class of amphibious ships - blue-water buses - each of which carries 350 sailors and is responsible for ferrying 700 Marines and their gear to global hot spots. And the ship's sad plight represents in miniature all that is wrong with the way the Pentagon buys its weapons. The pattern of haste and waste accelerated in the Cold War's wake and simply exploded following 9/11. It highlights the challenge facing President-elect Barack Obama as he contemplates retooling an Industrial Age military - primed for state-on-state warfare - into the more agile...
