...city of Cambridge and every other city that has passed a living wage ordinance requires subcontractors to meet its wage standard. Mechanisms have been developed in all these cities to force subcontractors to pay decent wages, and there is no reason to believe that Harvard could not employ similar means. In fact, Harvard already directly participates in determining the wages of its subcontracted workers through contract negotiations. As one of the largest and most powerful institutions in the state, Harvard has no trouble influencing the firms with which it does business...
...there is little in the lyrics department worthy of the rewind button, although dwell on the bounce beat in the background and everything will be all right. A notable exception is "Drop It Like It's Hot," which you've heard if you've made it to any decent hip-hop clubs. It's obvious that even Lil Wayne knew he was better off as part of the flaming ones. Of the album's 17 tracks, 12 feature pairings with the rest of the Hot Boyz--Juvenile, B.G. and Turk. The four should have just gotten together for another group...
Million dollar question (okay, for those of you who care deeply for the Spice Girls at least)--can any of the individual Spices create a (respectable?) singing career outside of the multi-colored, in-your-face, garish persona of the past? Melanie C makes a decent attempt on Northern Star--the opening drum and bass notes of the first song "Go," are exciting and unexpected, and the rest of the album too, with its pop/R&B influences is surprisingly listenable, especially on Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes (of TLC fame) rapping on "Never Be the Same Again." Look...
...band stepped off stage "to take a leak," leaving him to play a lighter-waving ballad, he barely managed to keep a straight face through the second verse. Though the band's musical mix of grungy alt-rock and bouncy hoe-down country would have made for a decent concert by itself, it was their presence and stage antics that made it a truly great, entertaining show. Though the brothers Ween may be known for their adolescent humor and cheap laughs vulgarity, their on-stage satire was surprisingly incisive. At one point the band even asked for the house lights...
...instance, the much-criticized BGLTSA postering campaign during Coming Out Week aimed to shock all decent students, but none so much as Christians. Posters like "Every Tenth Jesus is Gay," "St. Sebastian: the first fag in the military" and "I praise the good Lord with my wet, quivering clitoris," could serve no other purpose besides insulting and intimidating the faithful. But as disgruntled undergraduates, prospective students and bubbly tour groups milled through the Yard, the signs remained. If gays were to face the abuse they heap indiscriminately on Christian students, one would not expect similar docility...
