...your five? Or maybe we could borrow CNN’s hologram technology, such that we could be beamed into lecture each morning. If that fails we could switch to “Stanford time,” in which lateness is excused up to three hours. If the CUE decides to proceed with any readjustments to our schedules, we hope they consider a creative solution. In this era of transition, let’s be sure we take a few extra minutes of pause ourselves before rushing into change...

...some point in the late 1990s, hip-hop became weighed down by bling and, taking its cue from the diamonds that adorned the necks of most of its artists, grew harder and more polished. Electronic sounds further stretched the genre, but an orthodox mainstream was born and experimentation fell by the wayside.

...these is White, who tells M and Bond a little secret; that Quantum has people everywhere. That's the cue for M's trusted bodyguard to pull a gun on her and reveal himself as a Quantum hireling. More fighting and chasing and leaping, intercut with the running of Il Palio, the famous horse race held in a Siena's main piazza.

He also...

Silly paranoia? (Cue creepy music here.) Or key elements in "The Enemy's Secret Plan"? Both monsters do exist, I'd say, but are only about 2 ft. (0.6 m) tall, scared of the daylight and lacking particularly sharp claws. The FBI is looking at ACORN for a reason, and the phrase ballot suppression is not a term totally unheard of in GOP hallways. That said, both sides are by and large trying to do what is right, at least most of the time. New-voter registration is a good thing. Keeping a sharp eye out to prevent ballot fraud...
