...roots and a reconciliation between its intellectual electronic side and its earlier, more guitar-based work. It was really more of a detante - the band's two musical tendencies rallying around a not-so-cryptic political stance. But in the new songs, perhaps because Yorke now has a separate outlet for his more personal yearnings, the fusion of urgency and detachment feels organic, unforced and fertile. Like Bonnaroo, Radiohead is bigger than ever and poised to reach audiences far beyond its core constituency. The band sounds reorganized and reenergized, ready to plant the seeds of what will come next...
...moral agents, they're machines-elegant, superbly efficient, made to fit the human hand. I now think it entirely possible that the American gunsmith John Moses Browning "sitteth," as his admirers say, "at the right hand of God."

Tomasky’s Democratic Party would give Americans an outlet for their desire to transcend self interest (and group interest) and serve their community. But in constructing his grand vision, Tomasky, like the rest of the Framers, largely ignores policy. Although he admits that policies must play a role in shaping the Democratic Party, he argues that “voters...
...Farrell Dance Prize, awarded annually by the Office for the Arts at Harvard (OFA). Growing up in a military family, few may have expected Altenburg to become a ballerina. She cites her unusual aptitude for “creative movement as a kid” that made dancing an outlet for self-expression. Altenburg studied at The Washington School of Ballet for seven years and recounts that she practiced from three to eight rigorous hours a day. She turned to dance with a professional ballet company when she took a year off after high school to join The Washington Ballet...
