  • What's a matter of meaning between words?

    Number of comments: 0
    So rather than write the lengthy blog about McCain'sw newly unveiled six paragraph approach to higher education, I decided to have a little fun today... Politics is about words, and words is about definitions. So, what's rich?



    Obama thinks America's rich earn a little over $250,000 a' [...]

  • Unpaid or Uncounted?

    Number of comments: 2

    [blogs.usatoday.com]

    I'm about a year away from my first experience in the working world out of college. One of the many options put before me, or so I thought, might be working in DC. For better or worse, "working" seems to be a mistatement of sorts.

    Perusing the opportunities of an' [...]

  • The American Farm (Better Known as the "Food, Conservation, and Energy Act of 2008")

    Number of comments: 0
    So, maybe you have or haven't heard of Michael Pollan. I'm into palatable non-fiction, and The Omnivores Dilemma has been on my short-list of things I should read. I took it with me to Michigan, opened up the soft-back pages, and found myself transported to the American farm. It looks [...]

  • Re-Emergence

    Number of comments: 1
    I was tempted to title this blog "resurfacing," but my vague memory of pop artifacts suggests this may be the name of an album by Sarah McLachlan...

    A little bit of research shows the title of the album, released in 1997 and featuring such hits as Adia and Building [...]

  • Arco's Debacle

    Number of comments: 0
    A couple weeks ago, while roaming around Missoula by bicycle, I heard a segment from NPR's Fresh Air (via podcast) on Joseph Stiglitz' new book The Three Trillion Dollar War ([www.npr.org]). Stiglitz points to increasing fuel costs as one of the major "unanticipated" costs of the war. International equity [...]

  • My Sentiments

    Number of comments: 0
    I just got a mass e-mail from the "Responsible Plan" crew... normally I don't like repeating this sort of sentemantalism, but let's be honest, there's something valuable about sentiment. Just maybe it inspires us to make changes we're not necessarily eager to make.

    Matt Stoller writes, "One piece of" [...]

  • What's to like about Jim Hunt?

    Number of comments: 0
    I’d ask people not to let Denny Rehberg off the hook this election. The Iraq war stands as a glaring defect on Rehberg’s argument for fiscal responsibility. A pair of Harvard economists, including Nobel laureate Joseph E. Stiglitz, recently measured the cost of the war at an astounding three trillion [...]

    Number of comments: 0
    Given that Maxim reviewed the Black Crows new album without having actually heard it, let me indulge myself and review the Counting Crows new album without any experience. Saturday Evenings & Sunday Mornings, last I checked, stood atop the iTunes sales chart.

    I have to start with a confession: [...]

    First of all, I was hoping to suit up on the College Republicans intramural co-ed softball team, but since giving them my name and number, they've failed to contact me. This only confirms my suspicion that liberals are permanently barred from the following activities:

    1) Carry, salute, or look' [...]

    I'm quickly discovering how horribly stressful elections can be. Mind you, they are still a month away. But let me be upfront with a little disclaimer- I'm not going to reveal my intentions in this post. If that's what you're looking to hear, then turn away, go back, and read [...]

  • Lobbying and Budgeting

    Number of comments: 1
    Student Group lobbying begins tonight at 5pm. Where we generally consider lobbying to be merciless and immoral activity, ASUM has not only approved the whole ordeal but actually organizes and arranges it.

    Prior to this week, the Executives sat down and reviewed $1.4million in student group budget requests. The [...]

    Number of comments: 0
    I can't say this is a fond farewell to SB29-07/08. The Kaimin article in today's paper paraphrased last night's meeting in a very forgiving way. I am grateful for it.

    Since R&A scratched the ad hoc committee from the first therefore clause, the resolution came amended from' [...]

    Number of comments: 0
    The campaign for sweatshop free university apparel is well underway. SESJ Fashion Show was a spectacular success, with media from all across Missoula (including the Kaimin) and even national coverage (MTV). The event took roughly 30 minutes and featured 16 models- mostly students, one professor, and some community members. The [...]

    SESJ met for the last time tonight regarding the Sweatfree Fashion Show, being held tomorrow at 12:00noon in the University Center. Got a glimpse of some clothes, some models, some models without clothes... can't wait.

    Long night, long meeting. I'm frustrated that we've reached a communicative impasse with the Kaimin. I understand that a committee is not the normal approach to negotiating contracts. However, it was never my intention that the Kaimin should feel requisitioned into anything they didn't agree with. That was, I guess,' [...]
