...ineffective, but there may be two potential explanations. One has to do with the idea that such videos and DVDs overstimulate the brain. Researchers believe there is a critical window during early development in which language skills are acquired and developed; the sounds that babies hear and repeat in this time period are essential to establishing their language ability. And babies are better able to learn these sounds if they hear them from a live speaker (a parent) who engages with them directly and uses language in a repetitive, reinforcing way - where, for instance, an adult and the infant interact...

Princeton ultimately stymied the Crimson’s quest for victory, prevailing with 1465 points and thus nabbing its 17th Ivy League championship in school history.

...repeat that: even without a superpower rival like the Soviet Union - with its arsenals of nuclear weapons, fleets of tanks and armadas of warships, all manned by 10-foot-tall Red Army troops - the U.S. is now spending more preparing for war against, well, who knows, than we spent readying to fight Moscow. And the Obama Administration has made it clear that defense spending is going to continue to increase, even as fiscal pressures - for bailouts, health care, infrastructure - inexorably mount...
