...second experiment, students were asked to write a story, which would then be read by a peer and used to classify the writer's personality as Type A, B or C - A being positive, B neutral and C being decidedly negative. Type Cs were, for example, said to "sacrifice their beliefs because they seek contentment rather than challenge." Students were also asked to predict how they would feel if their peer judged them to be Type C - some participants were asked to predict based on written descriptions of all three personality types; others were not given those descriptions, but shown...
...members of the anti-gay religious organization—including a 15-year-old girl and an 8-year-old boy—finally appeared, entering the area the Cambridge Police had designated for their protest. From the other side, separated by two fences and a neutral zone, the counter-protestors began chanting loudly, drowning out the church group’s words and songs...

But the referees immediately waved off the goal, concluding the puck never crossed the goal line and frustrating the Crimson players...
...automakers haven't killed the lawsuit. But they are supporting the Obama Administration's "cap and trade" initiative, which is designed to curb both the use of energy and greenhouse-gas emissions across the entire economy. For carmakers, such legislation would be mostly neutral because they earn credit for making electric vehicles and could spend it on cars that emit too much CO2. GM now notes that one-third of the Cadillac Escalades it sell are hybrids, so it would have plenty of currency. Of course, at this point Detroit is hoping for anything that doesn't have California...
