...that have ratified the Kyoto treaty to reduce emissions--an imperfect accord, to be sure, but an accord all the same. The U.S., however, which is home to less than 5% of Earth's population but produces 25% of CO2 emissions, remains intransigent. Many environmentalists declared the Bush Administration hopeless from the start, and while that may have been premature, it's undeniable that the White House's environmental record--from the abandonment of Kyoto to the President's broken campaign pledge to control carbon output to the relaxation of emission standards--has been dismal. George W. Bush's recent...

...shiver, that make Frederick’s character fully-fleshed.Dorin (an HRDC veteran who produced last semester’s “The Alchemist”) does a fantastic job of mediating these performances and evoking a mood that is dark and Gothic, yet not totally hopeless. Dorin’s choice of a play-within-a-play form really suits the inward-focused themes that characterize both plays: the loneliness of physical deprivation, the importance of writing as a tool for communication, and the possibility of an ancestral cycle of trauma and abuse.

...first type of divestment demand is first and foremost a tactic used by organizers to manufacture an opportunity to talk about the actual issues. In this light, Summers did the petition-circulators an immense favor: he catapulted a hopeless divestment call from obscure e-mail lists to the pages of The New York Times. Summers likely did this to establish in the national press a strong test for discrimination with respect to anti-Semitism.
