ATLANTA (AP) — Georgia has more than 500 hazardous sites in need of costly cleanup, but an analysis of state spending shows that it
routinely shorts the trust fund that's supposed to pay for them.

The rest goes into Georgia's general fund for other purposes. "We find ...

Princeton is not perfect. We have persistent problems with race, gender and class that affect members of our student body every day. Far too often
, it falls upon the most affected groups to work alone to combat these problems. The fact that the University shares this dynamic with the rest of society does not make the situation excusable.

The fact that EPA administrator Scott Pruitt sat several seats to the right of President Trump during his announcement of a $200 billion infrastructure plan on Monday was

WITH THE international community preparing to lift most sanctions on Iran, its president, Hassan Rouhani, no doubt will present his nation as ready to take

The researchers further found it was this experience of phubbing - and of being phubbed themselves - that made people more likely to believe phubbing was 'normal'. Professor Ka...

Trump, who inherited an historic market run and an economy at nearly full employment, has nowhere to go but down. The trouble with taking credit
for the admittedly white-hot market rally is twofold. First, as ProPublica’s Jesse Eisinger correctly points out, is the fact that the S&P 500, let alone the mostly useless Dow Jones, is not a reflection of the real economy. The stock market goes up when labor costs and wages go down, because it increases profit margi...

The leader in video calling has been slacking off. That’s a line remote co-workers often ask each other when they need
