Indeed, several seniors I know have voice this sentiment: Harvard may bring together the most interesting people in the world between the ages of 18 and 23, but it's just an amazing coincidence. According to this theory, Harvard apparently plays no role either in the selection of students or in their decision to come here, an admissions yield higher than any other university in the country...

This piece betrays a moral apathy and intellectual laziness that has characterized much editorial coverage of civil conflict in this decade. As a piece of journalism, it has little worth: it neither explains the situation to people, nor does it take a well-reasoned moral stand, either for or against the bombing.

And that the war is entirely in the hands of ordinary people, beyond the influence of leaders...

Prosecutor John Skrzynski was unrelenting in plucking the feathers of the self-described angel of mercy. He called Kevorkian "a medical hit man in the night with a bag of poison to do his job." And he said, "There are 11 million souls buried in Europe that can tell you that when you make euthanasia a state policy, some catastrophic things can evolve from that...

DreamWorks principals say they need to increase production to compete with other studios, which typically release 15 to 20 films a year. They can either make more deals with outside producers or, more likely, hire a high-powered executive to run the live-action division alongside Spielberg's operation. An open question is how involved Katzenberg--who spent 10 years as head of the Disney studio but fared poorly in live action--will be in building the slate.
