CAMBRIDGE, Massachusetts (AP)--Bill Gates is finally getting his Harvard degree--32 years after he walked away from the university on the path to becoming the world's wealthiest person.
Gates, billionaire co--founder of Microsoft Corp.,philanthropist(慈善家) and college dropout, will receive an honorary degree June 7 when he delivers Harvard University' s 356th graduation address.
"His contributions to the world of business and technology, and the great example he has set through his far--reaching philanthropy, will rightfully put him on center stage in Harvard Yard," Harvard Alumni Association President Paul Finnegan said in a statement.
Gates is considered a member of Harvard' s Class of 1977, which celebrates its 30th reunion this year. He first came to the university in 1973 but left in1975 to devote his time to developing Microsoft, which he founded that year with childhood friend Paul Allen.
Gates helped turn Redmond, Wash--based Microsoft into the world's largest maker of computer software, with revenues of more than $ 44 billion during the year 2006. He was the company's chief executive(首席执行官)until 2000 and still serves as chairman.
Gates and his wife, Melinda, created the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation in 2000,which is now the world's largest philanthropic foundation with an endowment(捐赠资金) of about $ 33 billion. The foundation concentrates on promoting global health, ending poverty and hunger, and enhancing education. The Gates Foundation also is a major donor to Harvard.
Jack Reardon, Harvard's associate vice president for university relations, said there was no particular reason why the university waited until this year to honor Gates. He said Harvard considers many people for honorary degrees every year.
Forbes magazine earlier this year estimated Gates' worth at $ 56 billion, making him the world's richest person.

A child's birthday party doesn't have to be a hassle; it can be a basket of fun, according to Beth Anaclerio, an Evaston mother of two, ages 4 and 18months.

But it really doesn't have to be that way, "said Anaclerio. Last summer, Anaclerio and her friend Jill Garlisle, a Northbrook mother of a 2-year-old, founded a home party-planning business called "A Party in a Basket."Their goal is to help parents and children share in the fun part of party planning, like choosing the subjector making a cake, while they take care of everything.
Drawing on their experiences as mothers, they have created（制作）10ready-to-use, home party packages. Everything a family needs to plan a party, except the cake and ice cream, is delivered to the home in a large basket.
"Our parties are aimed for children 2to 10."Anaclerio said, "and they're very interactive（互动）and creative in that they build a sense of drama based on a subject. For example, at the Soda Shoppe party the guests become waiters and waitresses and build wonderful ice cream creations."
The standard ＄200package for eight children includes a basket filled with invitations, gifts, games and prizes, paper goods, a party planner and the like. For more information, call Anaclerio at 708-864-6584or Carlisle at 708-205-9141.

The tower of Big Ben, London’s most famous building, has always leaned (倾斜)slightly, but construction work on a new line for the London Underground seemed likely to give the tower a real lean. Engineers have had to prop up (支撑)its base to prevent it from damaging the rest of the Houses of Parliament.
To control the tower’s movement, engineers pumped grout(水泥浆)into the soil under the tower. The tower now leans an extra few centimeters, but the lean can only be seen by the most sharp-eyed observer.
Between 1995 and 1997, to lengthen the Jubilee line of the Underground, builders dug a 40-metre-deep hole just 31 metres north of the clock tower. And the new tube (underground )tunnels were even nearer to the tower. John Burland, who recently helped stop the increasing lean in the Leaning Tower of Pisa and was an adviser to the Jubilee line project, believed the work would affect the tower. In his opinion, no further lean should go beyond a safety limit of 27. 5 millimetres over the existing lean of 220 millimetres.
To keep the lean within this limit, Burland told the British Association about the new method of pumping grout immediately under the base of the tower. More than 300 tons of grout were pumped in during construction. The tower’s additional lean went between 10 and 25 millimetres, but never passed 27. 5 millimetres.
After the construction work was completed in late 1997, a review of mouvements in nearby walls showed that the building was in better shape than had been thought before and the safety limit was raised to 35 millimetres before any action needs to be taken.
Since 1997, the tower has continued to lean, Burland told Modern Construction. The latest measurements, taken this year, suggest that the tower’s lean had just reached 35 millimetres. But following regular re-examinations of the tower, experts are sure that the tower has stabilized (稳定). A spokesman for London Underground says: “We understand the tower has stabilized and returned to its normal movement cycle.”
From Modern Construction, 16 September 2000
