Moving from right to left (at least across the page--The Crimson never moves right of left, I'm afraid), the next editorial we come to is Emily R. Carrier's "'She' Remains on the Margins." While I sympathize with Ms. Carrier's unfortunate choice of thesis advisor, I find it odd that she could write so bluntly that she does not recommend anyone read her thesis. Was it so poorly written, or so uninteresting, that she wishes it to be buried along with the other reams of unread academic research by this year's senior class? If Ms. Carrier...
...HONSINGER, 48, Arlington, Texas On Sept. 11, 1966, Honsinger was manning a .50-cal. machine gun in an armored personnel carrier when it came under heavy enemy fire. An antitank rocket blew off most of Honsinger's right arm, and military papers say he died that day. A police lieutenant, Honsinger finally visited the memorial three weeks ago and saw his name on panel 10E, line 86. "I had some people around [his name on the wall] that I knew. I'm glad I wasn't killed over there, of course. But it gave me a hollow feeling...
CHINESE TROOPS LAUNCHING missiles that splash down perilously close to Taiwan and put its armed forces on high alert. A U.S carrier task force cruising the area, another sailing toward it.

These are the most serious signals to date about the state of relations between the world's sole remaining superpower and its sole up-and-coming superpower. One misstep and one misperception after another in recent years have bumped the U.S. and China closer to crisis. The latest rupture has been...
Okay, so this is the first year of the Crimson Oscar preview, and what happens? A small Australian film about a pig, and a small Italian film about a letter carrier are nominated for best picture. Most of the nominations are for non-mainstream films. Several high-profile films did not receive major nominations (e.g., "Get Shorty," "The American President;" except for best-female actor nominations, "Casino" and "Bridges of Madison County" were ignored). All five director and all ten supporting-actor/female actor candidates are first-time nominees. In recent years, the Academy Awards have been dominated...
...disabled, the elections must be canceled. Taiwanese television reported today that three suspected "free-agents" who have recently entered the county are being tracked down. Their whereabouts are still unknown. Meanwhile, China continues to launch mock air and sea attacks near outlying islands. The U.S. has sent the aircraft carrier USS Independence and other warships to patrol the international waters off Taiwan to deter Beijing from further military action...
