...Some rational choice scholars do well according to this latter criterion and some do not; those who do not use rational choice distribute themselves in a similar fashion," Shepsle writes...
...fact that the ANC resorted to terrorism against South African civilians in the latter years of the struggle to end Apartheid undoubtedly caused the group to simplisticly infer connections with the causes of Arafat, Qaddafi and more recently, Assad. The ANC's associations with the pariahs of the world delegitimized an otherwise legitimate cause and only made it more difficult for the ANC's non-Marxist, non-terrorist sympathizers to support them. Pretoria's continued pursuit of these relationships in the face of Western objections raises important foreign policy considerations for Washington...
...spend money has reached America's big cities, and it has done to liberalism there what it did to national liberalism a decade ago. To survive, mayors have had to either find new sources of money or do things that didn't require an expenditure. Giuliani did the latter. The heart of his anticrime strategy was not more money but a shift in policing strategy. Following George Kelling and James Q.

Giuliani's liberal predecessor David Dinkins couldn't use broken windows...

Irrelevant lyrics make things worse: the content of songs such as "Lay Down The Law" and "1-76" (which refer to a personal acquaintance and G. Love's hometown Philadelphia, respectively) will...
...epic that's gorgeous to look at and gives some much-needed high-profile visibility to the tragic modern history of Tibeet--but opts for glossy formulaic packaging over genuine emotional resonance, even in the central relationship between Brad Pitt's Austrain mountainer and the young Dalai Lama. The latter succeeds in blending wide-eyed winsomeness with a dignity that's at once childlike and mature. Pitt, alas, never frees us from the sensation that he's something incongruous in this setting-a Hollywood heartrhuob trying to look spiritual. In fact, the film actually becomes more dramatically compelling as Pitt...
