Alabama city 7th best place to live in America, according to US News
Talk about making a debut splash... In its first year to be included in the list, Huntsville was named the seventh best place to live in America by U.S. News and World Report. Huntsville finished ahead of such cities as Nashville, Raleigh/Durham, North Carolina and Dallas. The list evaluates the country's 125th most-populated metropolitan areas based on factors such as affordability, job prospects and quality of life. The rankings also factored in data from the Census Bureau, Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. "Making its first appearance in the Best Places to Live ranking, Huntsville is the smallest metro area in the top 10," US News reported. "This northern Alabama metro area is the most affordable place to live out of the 125 largest metro areas in the U.S. and offers a flourishing job market, with many local companies focused on science, technology, engineering and math." Two other Alabama cities made the list. Birmingham ranked 95th out of 125 … [Read more...] about Alabama city 7th best place to live in America, according to US News

Time, Newsweek, and US News: Year of Living Dangerously
Last Updated Oct 15, 2008 6:15 PM EDT Advertising revenue figures for magazines in Q-3 have been released by the Magazine Publishers of America, and it was a bloodbath. Industry-wide, ad revenue dropped 8.8 percent from the same period last year, from over $6.5 billion to under $6 billion. Particularly hard-hit again once were the leading titles once known as "newsweeklies," e.g., Time, Newsweek, and U.S. News & World Report. Ad income fell by 10.1 percent and ad pages by 15 percent at Time. The figures were Newsweek were 12.4 percent and 2.9 percent, respectively. But the worst carnage was at US News, which lost a shocking 34.3 percent in ad revenue on 24.1 percent fewer pages. A key reason behind the losses at weekly news magazines in general is that the news cycle had sped up to the point that a once-a-week publishing schedule simply no longer can compete with the 24-7 cable networks or Internet news sites. Advertising follows the eyeballs, of course, so these three magazines, … [Read more...] about Time, Newsweek, and US News: Year of Living Dangerously
Why US News’ College Rankings Are a Joke
Last Updated Aug 20, 2009 10:17 AM EDT The monster story that broke this morning in the higher-ed world is the much anticipated release of the annual U.S. News & World Report's college rankings. The magazine announced that Harvard and Princeton tied for the top spot as the nation's best university. I couldn't care less about the big announcement. Why? Because I believe the rankings are a joke. Here's my reasoning: U.S. News doesn't try to measure the type of learning taking place at schools across the country. Instead the magazine is simply conducting a high-stakes beauty contest. Twenty five percent of each school's score is based solely on its reputation -- deserved or not. Since the reputation of Harvard, Princeton and the rest of the Ivy League gang is excellent no matter what crazy things they do, they begin each rankings cycle with a huge head start. On the other extreme, schools like Trevecca Nazarene University in Tennessee and Nova Southeastern University in Florida … [Read more...] about Why US News’ College Rankings Are a Joke
