...Most gamers know that the PS3's delay was caused by its Blu-ray drive, and many suggest that the Blu-ray advantage isn't worth the price or the wait. Sure, movies on Blu-ray have a picture quality six times higher than a standard DVD, but the vast majority of so-called high definition TVs don't even have the 1920 x 1080 pixel resolution (known as 1080p) to show Blu-ray's full glory. From a home-theater point of view, though, the PS3 was not only the first Blu-ray player to be priced well under...
Political observers suggest that immigration law will be one of the areas where a Democratic Congress and a Republican White House may be able to reach consensus. Before they do, they should flick on a TV. They would see that you can pass laws and put up walls but it is much harder to erect a fence around your culture. (Just ask the French.) That while borders need to be protected, new blood is what makes this country the maddening, fantastic free-for-all that it is. And that what makes Betty ugly is, in the long run, what makes...
...question mark hangs over the captaincy of Ponting. With a winning percentage of 73, he's Australia's most successful skipper. Under him, Australia have lost only three of 30 Tests?it's just that two of those meant bidding adi?s to the Ashes.

A statesman as well as a winner, Taylor had the edge in imagination: he knew when to desist with the orthodox and try the unexpected, and he stepped in when...
This comparison yields figures worthy of pause. It suggests the existence of an implicit quota on the numbers of Asian-American students at some schools. (Asian-Americans make up about 4.5 percent of the nation’s population, but only 10 percent to 30 percent of students at elite U.S. universities.) But there are two reasons why the score gap is not as startling as it should seem. First, the nature of affirmative action exaggerates the differences in measures of academic success for which it is trying to correct. For instance, students of color, who tend to be poorer...
...that round over the Republicans, but that victory and all the others will be forgotten unless she can regain control over her own caucus. She didn't just politely suggest that people vote for Murtha; she fought hard. Her lieutenants plied the House with phone calls and none-too-subtle threats, including suggestions that anyone who bucked her might lose committee assignments. After Hoyer still drubbed Murtha by a vote of 149-86, Pelosi emerged from the ballot room and pronounced Hoyer's win "a stunning victory." By the look on her face, she meant it. Pelosi went to Hoyer...
