...only note of concern came from Chou. As she examined a table tent with the results of HUDS' recent food waste audit--which showed that undergraduates were throwing out high amounts of food--Chou pointed to a possible repercussion...

In order to escape the wilds of his roommates' mess, he constructs tents MacGyver-style with delicate everyday linens. A cave shelter over his own bed remains standing.

"I am someone who is a uniter, not a divider. I don't believe in group thought, pitting one group of people against another," Bush told Tim Russert Sunday on NBC's "Meet the Press." Huh? This seems more than a little inconsistent coming from a candidate who has had private meetings with Christian conservative groups...
