...Dartboard is biased. But though Dartboard remains loyal to the cereal industries she grew up with, the loss she grieves the most is the beautiful squares of Cinnamon Toast Crunch (produced by General Mills—based in Minneapolis) for which the imitation falls tragically short in its strangely sugared and not very cinnamon-y recipe...
...does best--fighting--can't win the war. In Iraq today, brute force is a wasting asset, as Major General Peter Chiarelli, commander of the 1st Cavalry Division, knows firsthand. On a hot late-summer day, his soldiers entered Baghdad's Sadr City slum to quell attacks from militiamen loyal to rebel cleric Muqtada al-Sadr.

A Ph.D. student declared from the pulpit that "one of the most important fundamentals of our religion is to love and be loyal to Islam and the Muslims and to hate and renounce the disbelievers," the "cursed" Jews and Christians. I immediately protested the sermon, as did others. In the past, leaders have looked the other way. This time they called an emergency meeting and did the right thing. They fired the student...
