...Yard—spread REP’s message to the 6500-person student body. An ecoREP’s tasks include informing our peers about the environmental impacts of heating, laundry, food, lighting, and every other part of student life. REP would benefit from an increase in size, especially given the diluted value of internet-based communication with students who feel their lives are a never-ending stream of emailed tasks...
...Admittedly, the information provided by HUDS before this year was not perfect. Though a breakdown of fat, carbohydrates, and protein and a suggested serving size is useful information, it is too complicated to help plan a nutritionally balanced meal on the fly. Ideally, dining halls could provide some of the information displayed in the past along with a picture of a plate with appropriate portions for each meal.

Palin's two weeks of interview broadcasts on CBS Evening News coincided with a collapse in her approval ratings and a loss...
BlackBerry Clams Up. It's finally here: BlackBerry's first clamshell phone. The Pearl Flip 8220, which costs about $150, is available from T-Mobile.

It doesn't have 3G connectivity, but it's Wi-Fi enabled...
...Akai has never weighed more than 100 pounds, and is so slim that her waist is swimming in Zara's smallest size XS skirt. She doesn't need to lose any weight. But Japanese girls obsessed with diets tend to jump at any trendy new ones, so, when Akai heard about a popular actress who'd lost 26 pounds through the Morning Banana Diet, she had to try it. And the dearth of bananas as her local supermarket, and many others, is testimony to the popularity of the new dieting...
