...reaction hasn't been all positive, though. Britain's right-leaning Daily Telegraph newspaper called the campaign "dour and humorless" and some bloggers were nastier still. The Moores believe they've hit a nerve, and the issue clearly resonates far beyond Britain. In the U.S., "it's kind of reached ridiculous proportions," says Brown. "[Parents] are saying, 'I can't find anything other than pink for my daughter.'"

The danger here is not necessarily the number of players opting out of college after one season but rather the cultural normalcy that comes along with...
Some estimate that thousands of Haitians still lie underneath the rubble. And while some American families may be leaving with a sense of closure, many Haitian families live without that finality. For Lonez Annoule, closure is more a process than a destination. He says that although he's come to terms with his daughter's death, he remains in disbelief at times. "Everywhere I go, I think I see her," says Annoule. "All I want to do is see her one last time...
