...addition, the price of a text message??even when using a plan—is astronomically greater than the cost to the cell phone carrier. Studies have shown that cell operators have a profit margin of about 90 percent for text messages, which is more than twice the profit for phone calls. Costs to operators are miniscule because SMS technology is over 20 years old and the network bandwidth taken up by text messages is tiny relative to a phone call. With usage increasing, the big players in the telecom industry don’t have to collude...
...organization or its message. Although the exhibit is now on display within Rosovsky Hall, it does not represent the views of the entire Hillel community. While PJA, other sponsors, and community members have expressed support for the exhibit, many at Hillel feel that the exhibit portrays a misleading message??one lacking a broader context of the Arab-Israeli conflict.

Mostly, the video entails Kid Sister sitting idly in a nail salon, waving her freshly brushed and glittered cuticles at the camera while dropping self-absorbed rhymes. Hardly a good visual marriage...
...second part of “Take Her, She’s Yours! or Till Divorce do Us Part” completely redeemed the performance in spite of its initial discordance. The chemistry between Godina and the two male leads was funny and just sweet enough that the underlying message??that true love is not an idealized state, but instead an everyday appreciation between two people—did not seem saccharine...
