...Zhang's fine features and delicate voice should not be mistaken for frailty. She has a maturity, a sense of purpose, beyond her years - and a steely determination. "The first thing I have to do is learn English," says this star pupil who is ready to become an international star...
...mention all this because, as I begin this reading period, the calendar reads 2001. A semester from now, I will graduate from Harvard (assuming the thesis and the last Core course chug along fine). Next year, I will not have this knowledge-gathering period, this peculiar pause when there is much to be learned--about friends, out-of-the-way places, and what will stick with you years from now.

Some of the GOP senators supporting his bill might be persuaded that they don't really want to trip up their party's first President in eight years before...
...Pappy's production or the session men's work. But there's not really much to say here; the backing is nothing much more that some strumming, a slow drum beat and a bit of vocal trilling by the Jordanaires or some such group. Of course, that's just fine in my book, which says that less in the background means more Jones up front...
