...across America today, almost no one under the age of 30 would notice. One way things may change, and no newspaper is ready to do this yet, is for papers to focus on the editions that are profitable, like the Friday and Sunday editions, and gradually phase out the Monday, Tuesday and Saturday papers that have less advertising and less content. Eventually, you're not going to see seven-days-a-week, 365-days-a-year papers...
...been serving as the editor this fall, resigned from his post in protest of the decision and threw his support behind the Daily Trojan’s editorial director, Jeremy Beecher, who handily won a subsequent vote on Friday and was approved by the Media Board Monday...
...Space watchers could thus be forgiven for being wary Monday, when NASA announced its plans for a manned moon base in the south lunar pole, a settlement that it says should be up and running in 2020 and permanently occupied in 2024.

Now Hummes, the Brazilian Cardinal about to take over the Congregation for the Clergy, has reopened it again. We can't know if Hummes - who on Monday clarified that the issue was not an immediate priority - was still a bit naive to Roman customs. But it is evidence of a more open intellectual climate under Benedict. And so with Ratzinger, who was perhaps the best-known modern Cardinal to become Pope, there is another bit of well-worn...
