...send out 14 of the same [message] declaring my love. This is very hard for me, since I’m superstitious!” Christian L. Garland ’10 has more graphic Facebook problems: “I just received [a post]: ‘GO EAT HER PUSSY and then realize you’re gay so you have an identity crisis that’s followed by years of pain and anguish until you finally snap and drive your powder blue VW van off a cliff with the bodies of little boys in the trunk...
...inclined to wrinkle your nose at the mention of seaweed. Pungent and slimy, it's usually something to avoid at the beach, not your first choice for something to drink, eat or wear.

Strains were briefly managed, tensions largely contained. What followed, though, was a long and tortuous series of missed opportunities, conflict and outright betrayal that set Smith and Powhatan on a collision course. When the old chief got word that Smith had sacked yet another village and made...
