...centrators--many of whom will already be avowed feminists--to the range of literature--by both men and women--on women. While "Social Studies 10" treats both Adam Smith and Karl Marx, "Women's Studies 10" makes no pretense of an open mind. It advocates one narrow, often insipid. "approach," the feminist "approach." This "approach" wanders all the way from liberal feminism to socialist feminism to radical feminism. Other areas of the discipline--if it is a discipline and if it has other areas--are ignored...

...political reporter and almost certainly the most controversial. His blunt phrasing of questions is exceeded only by his brash style of lobbing them like grenades, ambushing Presidents at every photo opportunity. Hold On, Mr. President -- a phrase that Donaldson says he has never actually used but that typifies his approach -- is in large part an attempt to justify his manner to readers who think him disrespectful.

Heineken, the most popular import, went for a more casual approach with: "Come to think of it, I'll have a Heineken." Nonchalance notwithstanding, this ad wasn't very visually exciting, featuring a drop of water climbing up the side of a bottle. Don't the Heineken people realize that you can put poodle urine in a bottle, chill it, spray it with water, and watch a little droplet of H2O do exactly the same thing? I finally realized that European countries, who in general make fun of American beer, don't always export their best brew...

...major difference from the Mad Max kind of two-dimensional role--I saw this guy as having a lot more dimension and a more real approach to life, and a conflict inside himself which he resolves more completely in the end...I think you have to be different. I think in those films he's seen as normal--it's normal behavior for that world. In this it is not, it's abnormal...
