...scholastic origin. It is true; the admissions process is a complex and unwieldy one. Surely mistakes are made in selection. That said, Bronshtein’s attack of admissions as lacking the truly “meritocratic” bent it should have is unfounded and represents the danger of parochial belief in what the Harvard student should be. The College prides itself on the breadth and depth of its student body, and, in attracting our generation’s best and brightest, strives to develop those students that they may become leaders and engineers of worldwide progress...
...Lost, Grey's harkens back to TV's conventional medical dramas, including St. Elsewhere and E.R. - topped with a hefty dose of sex to keep up with the times. At a time when TV is also overflowing with either unscripted reality programming or shows dealing in danger, terrorism and uncertainty that mirror the real world, the problems of five surgical interns and their bosses at Seattle Grace seem refreshingly familiar. "This is an old-fashioned show, and that's what makes it feel fresh," says creator and executive producer Shonda Rhimes, a black woman who has made a conscious effort...
Unlike a Disney movie, the story of the lion's new-found freedom is grim, violent and full of danger.

He also claimed that a secret Pentagon unit called Able Danger had identified Mohamed Atta at the center of the 9/11 terrorist conspiracy a year before the attacks, a claim that has been dismissed by both the White House and the 9/11 commission. Weldon has been associated with some questionable lobbying schemes: both his daughter Karen and his real estate agent, a longtime...
...rather than heed President Bush's urging to take al-Qaeda at its word, French officials saw no new danger in their starring role in Zawahiri's rant. "The alliance with the GSPC isn't new, in that the group pledged its loyalty and assistance to Zarqawi back in March of 2005," said one senior French counter-terror official, referring to the Qaeda In Iraq leader, Abu Mussab al-Zarqawi, killed in April. "Frankly, we still view any networks or projects Zarqawi's wider group may have begun before he was killed as more immediately dangerous than a new partnership...
