...Designated a "gay politician," Milk was at least as much the latter as the former - a genius in convincing people that what he wanted was what they needed. So is the movie. It revels in showing how Milk built his campaign staff from the lovers and locals who wandered into Castro Camera; how he fought the city's gay establishment, until then discreet in identifying itself; how he debated John Briggs, the sponsor of Prop. 6, to a standstill and was instrumental in having the initiative defeated by more than a million votes. You've never seen this before...
...recommend the latter course. I love Kidman's spunk and educability. I utterly agree that Jackman is, as People crowned him last week, the "sexiest man alive." Above all, I like the good-natured, hell-for-leather energy of the movie, the sense it imparts that no matter how much its silent-picture villains twirl their mustaches, its good folks, the people who represent the generous spirit of Australia, are going to win out in the end.

...need to get nostalgic, though—Harvard’s Game-centric school-spirit gatherings have never been perfect, rain or shine.

The Crimson controlled the puck for the latter half of the period but could not capitalize on multiple chances until the last six minutes, when sophomore Katharine Chute found the back of the net. Harvard ended the first frame with a 15-8 advantage in shots and only one power play compared with the Raiders’ five...
Around 40 students gathered for an early interfaith Thanksgiving dinner at Hillel last night. The meal, a joint effort by Hillel and the Catholic Student Association, also drew members from Harvard Baha’i Association, the Latter-day Saints Student Association, the Harvard College Buddhist Community, and the Harvard Islamic Society. Chef Brian’s kosher vegetable stuffing was a favorite among diners, who also chose from an array of holiday staples like butternut squash, mashed potatoes, and cranberry sauce. One student, Kamille C. Washington ’10, said that she especially appreciated that kosher foods tend...
