The Day Liz Was Born

Thu, 15 May 2008 11:18:31 -0700

My parents divorced when I was two years old, and a few months before my 14th birthday, I was sent to live with my father as my mother was deemed unfit. From the age of 14 on, I counted down the days until I could go away to college. I wanted an escape. I loved my father, but I could not stand living there. I never felt wanted. I never fit in to their grand plan. Their life was money, first class, wine lists, fine clothing, and prestige and no matter how hard I tried I was the odd one out; I

U.S. withdrawal will aide cease-fires in Iraq

Thu, 15 May 2008 10:26:19 -0700

Iraqi government officials traveled to Iran in late March to seek help in establishing a cease-fire with Shiite cleric Muqtada al-Sadr's Al-Mahdi Army. Iran convinced al-Sadr to order a cease-fire in the city of Basra, which has largely held to today. However, a cease-fire on May 11 for Baghdad's Al-Sadr City failed and fighting continues today, indicating that Iran's influence and al-Sadr's orders are unable to stop the fighting. The Shiite militias are divided into localized groups with their

Thu, 15 May 2008 10:25:38 -0700

A pro-marijuana rally attracted roughly 10,000 students on the University of Colorado campus. A video of the festivities was featured on the Drudge Report. The faculty, parents and donors were appalled to see a third of the student body partaking in illegal activities on campus. The Wall Street Journal linked the rally to the rampant “liberal” bias of the CU faculty. The article stated that the 800-strong faculty includes only 32 Republicans. The chancellor G.P. “Bud” Peterson, a Republican,

As the Endarkenment continues apace, composers are getting desperate for attention. Tuesday the Cleveland Composers Guild put on a wonderful concert by the Cleveland Duo & James Umble. Not a word about it beforehand in any of the print media that we've seen, despite having been double-sent the press release, and we got the customary 50 or so bodies. My symphony is on Sunday, and there's nothing in the two weekly bourgeois-Marxist papers. Any publicity out there is hit-or-miss Internet stuff, or

Senior Recap

Thu, 15 May 2008 10:23:10 -0700

Senior Year. My last year (hopefully!) at the university. I was planning to write this entry a day after my convocation, but I decided that that celebration deserves its own separate entry. So now while things are still a bit fresh from my memory I will try to re-cap what happened over the past year. [...]

The ten-year-old college kid by Roger Sinasohn May 15th 2008 1:14PMIf you asked me, I'd say that, yeah, my kids are pretty smart. My son Jared entered kindergarten reading at a second-grade level and both he and my daughter, Sara, picked up on one-to-one correspondence pretty early. Still, I've got at least another decade before six-year-old Jared even starts to think about college. Not so the parents of Moshe Kai Cavalin. At ten-years-old, he's already in his second second year at East Los Ang

Thu, 15 May 2008 10:04:42 -0700

Astronomers have discovered the youngest known supernova in the Milky Way galaxy, still just a baby at 140 years old. The scientists, who announced their findings Wednesday, used a radio observatory in New Mexico and NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory in space to identify when the supernova, or stellar, explosion occurred. They put the star-dying event at sometime around 1868. Before this, the youngest supernova in the Milky Way was thought to have occurred around 1680. A supernova is the cat
