...halls and rejecting a "political" role for the Undergraduate Council, the student body seems to be reawakening to the need for activism. The living wage movement has real momentum, Harvard has begun to listen on sweat-shop reform and progressives are making noise again on the council, despite the backward vote on the Reserve Officer Training Corps. Verdict: Better...

...third track, "Anakin's Theme," is one of the finest examples of Williams' genius in film music. Anakin Skywalker, of course, will become the Darth Vader of the original films (if that's a spoiler for you, then you probably don't care anyway). Having to work backward from the other three Star Wars soundtracks, Williams has embedded the familiar notes of "Darth Vader's Theme" (also known as the "Imperial March") within the slow, thoughtful piece.

...true liberal has its counterpart in the true conservative. These fellows have not (unfortunately) gone so quietly into that good night. From Ralph Reed to Pat Buchanan, they're still out practicing their bigoted and backward politics. They still have followers and they still run for office every so often. But less and less are they explicitly shaping the Republican Party's political agenda. When (and if) Strom Thurmond dies, so too will die the old school Republican party. The future is for the George W. Bush Jrs. and Christie Todd Whitmans of America. They are the fiscal conservative, politically...
