...that brings us to today’s malady and my current drive for intellectual cleanliness. From the various reviews and meta-studies that I was able to access on PubMed, it seems that most Echinacea studies suffer great methodological deficiencies, and when only scientifically sound studies are considered (i.e. studies that control for the placebo effect), Echinacea produces a modest if not nonexistent effect...
...Despite its setbacks, We Love the City is a generally good album that is a lot deeper than a lot of low-fi indie offerings out there. But with such a deep field of English music out there, providing the only solace from a constant infusion of Christian death meta American ‘butt-rock,’ stepping out of the pub and choosing Hefner over The Doves, Grandaddy, Idlewild, Teenage Fanclub or the Bluetones seems unlikely...
Jordanna P. Schutz '02, a physics and math concentrator in Dunster House, was an editorial cartoonist her freshman year, for which she apologizes sincerely. Her subject matter will include a smattering of insular Harvard humor and a handful of commentary on current events, and will avoid at all costs "meta" jokes about the cartoonist not having time to think of a good joke because she is too stressed with her manic Harvard life and too busy searching the Cue Guide for that Holy Grail of a decent Core. Her cartoon appears on Fridays...

Like its self-centered protagonist, this sitcom seems born to be hated. It's laden with trendy affectations (the smug voice-over, the meta references to other series and itself). It snipes at young, pretty tube stars yet casts young, pretty Katherine Towne as a teen troublemaker looking for her birth mother after her father has answered her inquiries with "M.Y.O.B." (mind your own business). Still, it's somewhat better than its overfamiliar ingredients. Creator Don Roos has distilled and sanitized the vicious humor of his film The Opposite of Sex for prime time. That which survives the translation makes...
