Conclusion: Mail Goggles' math questions are too easy to deter any but the sloppiest of drunks. However, my last e-mail remained unsent. If you have to do math at 2:30 in the morning, you're more likely to stop sending e-mails because you give up, not because you actually get the answers wrong. As a purely dissuasive tool, then, Mail Goggles works as advertised. Of course, there's still the text message, the Facebook message and the good old-fashioned drunken phone call. There are plenty of ways to humiliate yourself if you try. And for those...

This week demonstrated just how slippery adhering to rules can be. The Petersen-Sundquist campaign amassed 305 points of campaign violations (based largely on e-mail violations) out of a possible 400 point limit.

While the buzz of parcel activity related to the start of school makes the depots a necessity to prevent the bombardment of boxes on House superintendents, the current implementation of the system is absurd...

...Bohr, his Jewish mentor. Did Heisenberg, postulator of the uncertainty principle, attempt to extract information from Bohr? Or did he use the meeting to confess his anguish over helping Hitler? The latter is what the play suggests. But last week Americans got a different version of the story, when unsent letters Bohr wrote Heisenberg were released. In them Bohr (who later fled to the U.S. and worked on the Manhattan Project) evinces dismay at Heisenberg's assertion during the meeting that Germany would soon have the bomb. "You...expressed your definite conviction that Germany would win and that...

...unmarried narrator of Before the Change, who is back home for a visit with her father, a local physician who communicates in sarcasms. The hidden truths about their unshared lives pop up when least expected, a delayed-action effect that Munro achieves by casting the story as an unsent letter from the woman to her former lover...
