...workload isn’t so bad. Chemistry 20/30 is orgo for Chemistry concentrators and pre-meds desperately seeking to appear hardcore. The classes cover essentially the same topics as 17, but in considerably more depth (seeing as how there are two semesters). Although 20 is a gentler introduction to orgo than 17, Chem 30 is very difficult but thorough. The difference is evident when 20/30 alums also decide to take 27. (Why? Apparently because they actually like orgo and want to learn about its biological applications. Or because they are legally insane.) They are routinely excluded from the grading...
...eagerly anticipated U.S. comedies gracing the Festival. The others are For Your Consideration, the latest in Christopher Guest's semi-improvisational parodies (following Waiting for Guffman, Best in Show and A Mighty Wind) and Stranger Than Fiction, in which America's top film funnyman Will Ferrell taps a kinder, gentler side - Motion Picture Academy members, attention must be paid...

This makeover has led to the Conservatives’ resurgence in the polls. But that’s not enough for some hard-right Tories. The party’s suicidal revolutionaries prefer ideological...
...have since been reunited with their owners. If he had been told to leave his dog, Murdock, behind in the storm waters, says Pickens, "I'd yell at them to pitch me an inner tube, and I'd take my chances with Murdock." Is this is a kinder, gentler Pickens than we're used to seeing? He laughs and says, "That side has always been there. Just unrecognized by some people...
