...read with great??interest your article about teaching the Bible in public schools because of my own experience [April 2]. As a high school senior taking advanced-placement English, my fellow students and I so struggled to read Herman Hesse's Demian, with its Christian symbolism, that my teacher decided to have us learn about various books of the Bible. High schools should offer classes on world religions. Hoping that students will take comparative religion courses in college leaves too much to chance...
Looking for a great??business opportunity? Step right up, ladies and gentlemen, and join the XanGo team. Pronounced zang-go, this powerful elixir comes from the mangosteen, a fruit grown in the jungles of Thailand. The juice is anti-inflammatory! Antidepressant! Antitumor!

While I don't profess to be an expert on opera and hip-hop is far from my typical genre, I do know what I like--music that awakens a deeply emotional chord in my being. West's The College Dropout rotates in my CD player between operas by Puccini and Bizet. His lyrics and music are soul baring and thought provoking, and they speak to the human spirit the way great opera does...
...reverse the entire American pioneer act," State Senator Jay Hammond says. The great???and fragile?land is patently incapable of holding an unlimited number of people. Most planners believe that twice as many people as now may well be quite enough. The old theory that Alaska's sheer size and emptiness can absorb any insult without ill effect has by now been disproved by all too many examples. Instead, new growth must be selective and controlled...
