There may be someone on earth - a cloistered abbess, perhaps, or a Taliban soldier in a particularly remote post - who has yet to learn that High School Musical 3 opened last Friday. (It promptly leaped to the top of the U.S. box office, to the tune of a $42 million weekend take, and was No. 1 in each of the 19 international markets in which it opened.) But it's a rare human who hasn't at least heard of the Disney tween hit, given the passion of its fans and the zeal of Disney's promotion. What began...
...respond when people disagree with us. This explains all the exorcisms and flame wars. The assumption that to be intelligent is to be left of center implies that anyone who disagrees is either confused or has recently experienced some sort of intellectually damaging event, like walking into a post.

It is a falsehood largely borne on the shoulders of environmentalists, who, delicately careful to make platforms seem as palatable as possible, have twisted over backward in order to obfuscate and excise the sometimes jarring side-effects of comprehensive environmentalism...
...left side of the box. Fucito put in a cross to Rousmaniere, who tallied his second goal of the season. The Crimson doubled its lead five minutes before halftime. Junior Brian Grimm sent a free kick into the penalty area towards Stamatis, who was darting to the near post. Stamatis hit the ball first time on the volley, hammering it into the back of the net. Princeton came out strong after the break, but was unable to carve out many chances. As the Harvard back line frustrated the Tigers, the game became more and more physical. Tough tackles...
