...major in molecular biology, international relations, philosophy, economics and engineering. We are student leaders, jocks, nerds and party animals. Most of us are on financial aid. If there is one thing we all share, it is a commitment to hard work in school, service to the community, personal responsibility and the bonds of friendship among us: We are all brothers...
Unlike the bookstores, the big national drug chains are equipped to fight back. Some offer limited online refill services, and No. 3 Rite Aid has plans to roll out a prescription and vitamin website with GNC in the fall. That doesn't worry Drugstore.com's Neupert, who says, "Frankly, I don't know if the existing brands are all that respected." There's another issue, though. With the rise of managed care, close to 80% of prescriptions are now covered by third-party insurers. To capture a good chunk of the business, online drugstores "have to negotiate separately with thousands...
Until a few days ago, Ben Sobol (Billy Crystal) was just an ordinary, humdrum, neurotic psychiatrist whose lot it was to aid those more neurotic than he.

Analyze This is further enlivened by some decently original sequences that soar above the film's two tried-and-true stomping grounds. One of the funniest occurs roughly midway through the movie, at a point when Paul has just evaded an assassination attempt with aid from Jelly, ruining Ben's wedding at the same time (in a very subtle parody of The Godfather's baptism sequence). The ten minutes that follow contain dime-store Freudianisms turned on their heads, idiotically mushy dialogue, the only good line assigned to Ben's fiancee (Lisa Kudrow) in the entire film, and the bizarre...
Seniors lobbying on behalf of the Development Office proudly trumpet the fact that our gifts, matched by other donors from earlier classes, will go to financial aid in the form of a "Class of '99 Scholarship." But unless the College is about to abandon need-blind admissions, it seems likely that an additional scholarship might only free up dollars for other projects. Moreover, the fact that so many of us are so disinclined to give unrestricted gifts--"Well, if I give, it will be to financial aid," is commonly heard among seniors these days--indicates the general and rightful displeasure...
