...Goldwater Bank on East Camelback Road, a merry band of approximately 30 Tea Party activists, upset with politicians of all stripes, but especially liberals, waved signs against health care reform and out-of-control federal spending. The conservative protesters unfurled their banners and hoisted placards that read "Give Harry the boot" (with a real boot as a prop; and that would be Harry Mitchell, the local Democratic Congressman) and "Stop the Corrupt Health Care Bill - Drug Test Congress."

...wrapped up our little shopping week shindig. We had some quality posts, from unique classes to easy classes, classes for TV fans to classes on video. In case we didn't give you anything to chew on, we hope that you at least got a laugh or learned something about a class you happened not to attend. Hope you enjoy whatever you ended up putting on the piece of paper that you had to submit to the Registrar's Office (which apparently hasn't heard of the Internet). Just make sure you check your student record to make sure they...

Warner started throwing atrocious interceptions, developed a chronic fumbling problem, suffered a bad concussion. Warner was already in his early 30s, that's octogenarian in quarterback years. The Rams dumped him; he signed with the New York Giants in 2004, only...

...must support efforts to rebuild Haiti in the long term—both as donators and as political agents making claims on our government. This requires that public institutions have adequate resources, tertiary education institutions give Haitians preference in admissions, and that jobs for Haitians are created with the recent influx of aid. One organization that is working with the public sector and will continue to work in Haiti after all of the cameras and news media leave is Partners In Health, an NGO that has been operating in Haiti for 25 years delivering free medical care to the rural...

...what, if anything, can be done to give the Pro Bowl some luster? A 16-game season in a sport as hard-hitting as the NFL is already a test of endurance; there will always be players who opt out of the Pro Bowl because they're legitimately too beat up to play. Fining players who invent dubious injuries to duck out would be a start, although making a consequential dent in a superstar athlete's salary might be tough. At minimum, moving the game back to the Sunday following the Super Bowl seems like a no-brainer. Teams...
