...midst of all this, why should a quiet, tree-sprinkled enclave up Garden Street, most famous beyond Harvard for its collection of historical women’s papers, matter to students concerned about diversity Harvard? How is Radcliffe relevant anymore to students intent on a living wage, a Latino Studies department or a minority dean for the Faculty of Arts and Sciences...
...these things in person," Williams says. A problem, aside from the pawing, is that for every one of the fair's 175,000 visitors there are 175,000 different opinions on what constitutes best of show. Nonetheless, Williams came back with some winners. Universally loved was the tree-branch chandelier designed by Tord Boontje using Swarovski crystal. Williams selected only one of Milan's reissues: the "bad-tempered chair," designed by Ron Arad and made of carbon fiber by Vitra, was originally launched by Vitra as the "well-tempered" chair and made of stainless steel in the 1987.

For four decades, developers have crammed the skyline with featureless boxes or high-rise gimmicks like Philip Johnson's Chippendale-top Sony headquarters. Now the city faces its most important urban-design decision in years: what to put where the World...
...eats meals together, shares its problems (even if every third word is bleeped) and survives wacky scenarios. The family dogs are peeing on the carpets, so they call in a pet therapist! Jack goes to a hippie sleep-away camp and hates it! (Kelly: "They make you feed a tree before you feed yourself." Ozzy: "How the f___ do you feed a tree? Put out a ham sandwich?") But the show violates the conventions that make so many sitcoms so, well, conventional. The pace is leisurely, not forced, and the humor derives less from "jokes" than from characters...
