...Politically Incorrect's Election Coverage (Comedy Central) It would be a challenge indeed to plumb recent TV history to find a funnier piece of sketch comedy than PI's Republican Party infomercial spoof, which aired the week of the San Diego convention. As the networks lulled us to sleep, Bill Maher's wry, combative round-table show succeeded in covering the campaign with bite...

An honor code at Harvard would instill a sense of integrity in the community and would help foster an atmosphere in which students and faculty could fully trust one another. To say that signing a pledge of honor is simply a formality is incorrect. An implied commitment to honesty is one thing.

He gives us a sobering reminder of the work that awaits all those who would seek to preserve and to (now) re-dignify the memory of the six million Jews who perished in the Holocaust as a result of the infamous and inhuman acts of the German people and their cohorts. His is an attack upon the hallowed memories of all Jewish martyrs who are not alive to reply...
