...very articulate piece on an extremely important topic: how Cho became what he became [April 30]. Many people in the media dismissed him as a loner and a psychopath. While there is no doubt he was both, such an attitude is not only callous (to the innocent boy he once was, not to the monster he became), it is also very dangerous. Without a willingness to reflect nonjudgmentally on the causes of Cho's psychosis, and thereby learn to identify and treat individuals on a similar path, such horrific incidences will occur again.

There's always the danger that Magners will prove similarly vulnerable to the whims of fashion, but CEO Pratt insists it won't happen. "Alcopops are like boy bands: here today, gone tomorrow," he says. "But cider has existed for hundreds of years - we've simply added an enhancement."

"It didn't occur to me that when he was doing Freaks and Geeks he was a teenager. I figured he was actually 40," says Paul Rudd, the handsome guy who has played Rogen...
...matter how times you socked us in the nuts and dove for a blue phone panic button like it was the peak of the Aggro Crag. Though six out of seven days we fall asleep in the basement storage room of some anonymous Yard dormitory feeling like the boy who just placed third to two girls on Global Guts, it’s that seventh day when we wake up in UHS with one of our best buddies in the bed next to us that keeps us happy and sane...
...hallowed sports milestone would likely be condemned as unscrupulous, if not immoral. But in Brazil, where the original malandros of samba songs were celebrated for their ability to triumph through deceit and cunning, Romario remains a hero - or, at worst, a lovable rogue. He is the bad-boy-made-good, and in Brazil, particularly in Rio de Janeiro, everyone loves someone who can put one over on authority...
