...Apart from undergraduate publications like the Harvard Advocate and Tuesday Magazine, the Dudley House Review provides a more graduate student-friendly space for writers to come together in workshops and in print...
...Blagojevich's defense has a daunting task, especially given that some co-defendants as well as a host of other politically connected officials are reportedly lining up to cooperate with the government. Still, Blagojevich maintained to reporters after Tuesday's hearing, "I did not let the people of Illinois down. That is the beginning of me trying to prove my innocence and clear my name and be vindicated of what are inaccurate allegations." If found guilty of the 16 criminal counts against him, Blagojevich could face up to 20 years in prison and fines in the hundreds of thousands...

But the Red Shirts have vowed to rekindle their protest movement - and the divide that has cleaved the country is so wide that no one seems to have any idea how to bridge it. "I hope from now on we don't have Yellow Shirts, Red Shirts, Blue Shirts, whatever color shirts," said Apirat...
