Births by age of mother

http://msnbcmedia4.msn.com/i/msnbc/Components/Art/HEALTH/070208/AP_PREGNANCY_RISKS.gif

Apparently, there is a little known problem in the United States. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, almost 3/5ths of the mothers in the US are below 15, over 44, or have no age at all!

I am shocked that this fact, known since 1990, has gone undiscussed or examined. Where are all these ageless women?

Faust chosen as new president of Harvard

Faust, in her first interview after being selected, talked about her life long dream to head Harvard:
"I'd have given my soul for an opportunity like this! (laughs) Fortunately, nobody could really go to those extremes, now could they?"

In a separate interview, Lawrence Summers reflected on his tenure as president:
"It was as if I were not in control of my own tongue. These words would come out of my mouth and I had no way to stop them. If I lived in a different age, I might think the Devil made me do it!"
