Member 2765Battle of the binge (The Christian Science Monitor)21-08-2008 17h00The Christian Science Monitor - Do college students really like to get drunk? The question should be thrown at the nearly 100 college presidents asking government to consider lowering the legal drinking age to 18 from 21. If colleges simply assumed most young people prefer not to imbibe, they'd find ways to help them be teetotal rather than tipsy. Keep the option of single-sex ed (The Christian Science Monitor)21-08-2008 17h00The Christian Science Monitor - As the school year approaches and students debate whether to get Jonas Brothers or Hannah Montana folders and pencils, parents have more substantive decisions to make involving the educational prospects of their children. My housing bust redemption (The Christian Science Monitor)21-08-2008 17h00The Christian Science Monitor - It was the spring of 2005 and the housing market was in a frenzy. Against my better instincts, I let my realtor convince me to join the fray. Although that decision cost me much of my life savings, it taught me a lesson that years of graduate school never did – believe it or not, life's not about the money. Mount Olympus Dismounted (HuffingtonPost.com)26-08-2008 05h38HuffingtonPost.com - What is the best way to dissect the recently concluded Summer Games in blovatious Beijing? Bubbas for Barack (The Nation)27-08-2008 16h30The Nation - The Nation -- I was feeling a mite low yesterday afternoon, heading to Day Two of Denver, bumping along amid a sea of my fellow reporters (and one or two actual Democrats -- there are some here) through a scorching afternoon along the hellish, roped-off, cement stretch of cattle path cut through downtown Denver to the Branding Center where the artists once known as the people's party had held forth with distressing mutedness on Day One. "No Red Meat from Warner Speech." (The Nation)27-08-2008 14h28The Nation - The Nation -- Here is a footnote, and nothing more than that, from the 2008 Democratic National Convention. Conversation With a Hillary Delegate (RealClearPolitics.com)27-08-2008 00h00RealClearPolitics.com - DENVER - I had an interesting conversation with a Hillary delegate from a Western caucus state last night in the Pepsi Center. The conversation went something like this: First Night (RealClearPolitics.com)27-08-2008 00h30RealClearPolitics.com - DENVER - As first nights of conventions go, I don't think you could find any fault with what occurred in the Pepsi Center last night. Ted Kennedy's appearance was the signature moment of the night, made more so by the fact he delivered a much more robust speech than anyone expected. It was the kind of poignant drama that conventions are built for. The Senator (Susan Estrich)27-08-2008 16h00Susan Estrich - All last week there were rumors that he would not make it to Denver at all. Then on Monday there were rumors that he was in a Denver hospital receiving oxygen, and that at best he would be in a box at Pepsi Center, watching the tribute and waving to the crowd. He'll never make it to the podium, more than one person told me. They don't know the Senator. <<< Prev member Next member >>> Randon Members Member 5050 Member 3746 Member 17 Member 1311 Member 2980 Member 2494 Member 2585 Member 732 Member 2009 Member 586 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 68 69 70 71 72 73 74 75 76 77 78 79 80 81 82 83 84 85 86 87 88 89 90 91 92 93 94 95 96 97 98 99 100 101 102 103 104 105 106 107 108 | |
