...loved "Whose Line Is It Anyway?" but found it too taxing on the imagination. Jeff Foxworthy, meanwhile, returns to the screen in "Blue Collar TV," a standup comedy/parody show on which he will continue to prove that redneck jokes are not offensive as long as you pay an actual Southerner to make them for you. On "Shacking Up," Fran Drescher plays a mother who shocks her 25-year-old son by moving in with her 24-year-old boyfriend. (Sorry, did you just...
Just exactly what the equivocator’s answer has to do with the actual question is hard to say. The equivocator writes an essay about the point, but never on it. Consequently, the grader often mentally assumes that the right answer is known by the equivocator and marks the essay as an extension of the point rather than a complete irrelevance.

Clouds, which reflect sunlight, ought to cool the earth. But they can also hold in warmth. That second effect swamps the first. According to Minnis' calculations, increased cloud cover since the 1970s ought to have led to a warming of .36 to .54F per decade. The actual warming during this period falls within that range, at just under .5. That may not sound like much, but when only 9F separate our current temperature from the last Ice Age, it's clear that a little warming makes a big difference. "This study," says Minnis, "demonstrates that contrails should...
