...tell the public, 'We don't give a damn what you think.'" Violence, Yusupova believes, has its own logic. "Everyone now is endangered, not only those who live in Chechnya, but those who live in Russia as well." Yet she's sure there will be a backlash. "Society will respond. Some counterweight to this lunacy must emerge, be it in the shape of a new dissident movement, or other forms we don't yet discern. The authorities will as inevitably seek to suppress this movement cruelly and brutally. But suppression will only promote its growth, all the fears notwithstanding...
...that Seinfeld was racist. It satirized cultural tensions and p.c. conventions, usually hilariously, often uncomfortably, sometimes insensitively-- but it did confront them, unlike most sitcoms. It is too facile, however, to simply separate the work from the artist. The work is the artist; to the extent that we respond to it, it is us too. Liking a Mel Gibson movie (or a T.S.

And Hector is not above bopping an inattentive or disruptive student with a sheaf of papers. Needless to say, the kids respond to him with forbearance for his oddities and affection for his merry humanism...
...Harvard men’s basketball team failed to bounce back from a tough defeat at Michigan last weekend, losing 82-69 to Holy Cross last night in Lavietes Pavilion. The Crimson overcame an early 14 point deficit but could not respond to a late run by the Crusaders. With 4:33 to go, the contest appeared ready to go down to the final play, as Harvard sophomore Drew Housman streaked in for a layup to tie the score at 63 all, capping a fifteen minute stretch of frenetic, rather sloppy play that featured all of the game?...
