Before Friday, when John McCain made his vice presidential nominee public, Sarah Palin was a virtual unknown. On the day the announcement was made, there were 2.4 million visits to Palin's page on the most reliable source of information out there, Wikipedia.

On August 23, Michael Parenti-noted liberal scholar, political scientist, and author-spoke before a small crowd at the Nonesuch Gallery about "Capitalism's Apocalypse"-a phrasing that even Parenti himself wasn't entirely confident of. Despite the heady doomsday title of the lecture, his succinct observations on a country in demise illustrated how capitalism has not only run up again its ecological limits, and it is completely antithetical to a true democracy.

A year ago a daily parking permit cost a dollar, but since the Spring '08 semester parking costs have risen dramatically to two dollars. We at the Skyline View don't believe it should rise this much despite the reasons offered by school administrators.
Currently the school is undergoing budget difficulties because the parking fund has acquired a deficit.

I have a hobby that might seem fairly quirky. I have white metal miniatures between two to three inches tall that I enjoy painting, and some people find that odd. That's fine, because not everyone understands what I enjoy about painting miniatures or even playing tabletop games with them.

John McCain just lobbed the country one whopper of a curveball by crowning Sarah Palin his Vice Presidential pick. In doing so, he picked as blank a slate as possible in the eyes of the nation. How the media will fill that space is the question.
It's hard to make sense of why McCain went in the direction he did with Palin.

I've been in school for seven years: one year at an out-of-state school, a year-and-a-half at a city college, three years at UC Santa Barbara and two years at SJSU.
I guess I just like to collect degrees. Actually, I have no idea where my bachelor's degree is.

In a moment, some of you will say, "It's more complex than that."
But you will be wrong.
With some things, the more you know, the less you reason.
John McCain's recently chosen vice presidential candidate, Sarah Palin, is one of those things.
She's the pick because she is a woman, and no, it's not more complex than that.

The gold medal game for the U.S. men's national basketball team in the 2008 Olympics was nothing short of spectacular. The U.S. earned every bit of the victory, pulling out the game by a final score of 118-107 on Sunday, and what followed was pure joy.

Man, this is brutal. We started school ten days ago and already we have to put this bad boy out on the stands to be devoured and digested by you readers. I mean normally our production cycle consists of fourteen days, but we've had to hit the ground running, and this year is only going to get more difficult.
