...need caring solidarity among all Americans. We need to protect our country, to care for the victims and their families and actually identify our enemy.” We don’t need to use the events of last week as an excuse to bash men and smugly assert the moral superiority of one gender over the other...
Screenwriter Neil Labute first won attention for his fierce dissection of the battle of the sexes in films like In the Company of Men and Your Friends and Neighbors. He displayed an even grimmer view of human nature, along with some pretty fine writing, in his 1999 play Bash, a series of monologues that reveal the depravity lurking beneath the surface of ordinary lives.

That was all the work of Gucci Group, which acquired the Saint Laurent ready-to-wear and beauty brands...
...Kappa Zeta sorority threw a party, open to all, at a downtown establishment called the Diva Club. "We don't care what kind of music it is, as long as the bass is going, the rhythm," says junior Rebecca Goldenbaum. It was the first big bash of the new semester. Like many of the revelers, junior Jason Lamberton straggled back to campus at dawn, as the trees blew in a cold wind. When he arrived, he recalls, "I saw the police cars lining up, and I had to rub my eyes and pinch myself. It was the same scene...
