Our country is always good for a nice contradiction.
We can sit in our Wal-Mart chairs without ever thinking of the nickel-an-hour Chinese laborers who worked to produce them.
We have the right to a free press, but if we run from newspapers and don't tune the television to CNN, we have the ability to live as isolationists, shielding ourselves from that depressing thing called "the world" while paying stupid attention to Britney Spears' every move.

In the summer of 2006, I drove across the country from New York, to the proverbial, "rest of my life." I never would have imagined The Channels lab becoming the second home and sanctuary it is. It's the one place that's been constant in my life in Santa Barbara.

In a city once made famous for its declarations of
peace and love, a single, ill-advised punch changed two
lives forever.
It hasn't been reported with certainty exactly why San Carlos resident and Carlmont High School senior
Taylor Buckley slammed his fist into the side of 18-year-old
Anthony Giraudo's face outside AT&T Park following a San Francisco Giants game last Friday.

Two weeks ago, the Los Angeles Police Department dropped 320 pending cases of racial profiling by its officers, and in doing so showed that justice may not be blind, but police officials are.
This is the sixth consecutive year that all allegations have been dismissed by the LAPD.

If the college district's new communications director, Tim Leong, really wants to improve relations with the media, we have a suggestion: He should rip up his new plan.
Channeling all press inquiries through a public relations person may work in the private sector, or at PG&E, where Leong worked for many years.

Sex - By the time we hit college, we all know what it is and a sizable chunk of us are doing it. But when it comes down to it, what we do in our bedrooms (or wherever else) is no one's business but our own. Unfortunately, Brazilian soccer star Ronaldo had his sex life revealed to the public because of his encounter with three prostitutes at the end of April.

Britney Spears has been granted a miracle.
Finally, there's someone for the media to now fall all over who's more screwed up than she is .
I'm sure it doesn't take a genius to guess the biggest mess in Hollywood, or rather the United Kingdom, and unfortunately she has to share my first name - Amy Winehouse.

MAY 5, 2008-Contrary to popular belief, Cinco De Mayo is not Mexico's Independence Day; It's not even a national holiday. It's the anniversary of a battle Mexico won against the French army in 1862. Yet, the "holiday" is overblown here in the United States, with Cinco De Mayo.

Hundreds of thousands of men and woman serve our country in the military and give a portion of their lives, sometimes making the ultimate sacrifice, to protect us and our freedom.

A week ago, there was only one candidate running for student body president in the ASI election going on today, Wednesday and Thursday.
A week ago, I was ready to launch my campaign for Team W.H.I.T.E., aka We Hope I Take the Election. Appalled at the lack of competition for such an important role, I was ready to announce my own presidency and give the students a different choice.

One of the more reassuring things about politicians is their unfailing predictability.
With their proposal to suspend the federal gas tax over the summer, Senators Hillary Clinton and John McCain are essentially insulting voters under the guise of helping them.

In theory, universal health care is a great plan ... but so was communism. As much as it sounds good on paper to write "free health care for everyone," it is simply unrealistic.
There is no such thing as "free." Why should that be any different with universal health care? The money used for universal health care will come from tax money, and that tax money ultimately comes from you or me.

Miley Cyrus has recently apologized to her fans for her risqué photo spread in the upcoming issue of Vanity Fair, but these photographs may be a sign of things to come for the 15-year-old star of Disney's hit show "Hannah Montana."
The photograph that has caused the most uproar features Cyrus wrapped in a white sheet with her back exposed, making it appear as if she is topless.

My earliest memories are of Julie Andrews.
When I was 5 years old, my grandmother introduced me to "The Sound of Music."
I remember clutching my grandmother's copy of the movie, one VHS in the box and the other in the VCR, as I watched that iconic scene: an aerial shot of the Austrian countryside zooming in until the camera settled on a nun spinning with her arms open.

In the early morning of life, there were songbirds. In the evening, there's been mockingbirds. In our twilight, there will be nightingales.
And what do all of their tunes mean?
Well, I'd like to think of myself as constant progress, like a machine that keeps replacing its own rusty parts.

San Jose State is getting a new president. And although members of the editorial board don't have a say in the decision process, we wanted to make our voices heard.
There are both concerns and praises for each presidential candidate. After reviewing the media interviews and going over the background of all three candidates, we realized the decision was harder than we had previously thought.

As American Gladiators Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama spar on their podiums for the Democratic nomination, it looks like Obama has a chance of falling.
Poll numbers differ when it comes to the closeness of the primary elections in North Carolina and Indiana after a week of troublesome press for the Obama campaign.

During my last month here at this beautiful Norwalk campus I find myself forced to come out. Out of my nice, un-opinionated shell that is, due to the fact that I happened across something that totally appalled me.
It left me saying, "Are you kidding me?"
Not to say that I am not easily appalled by today's twenty-somethings, but usually I can just shake my head, silently gasp, and ignore ignore ignore.

(5/11/08) -- "Hannah, I'm concerned about your cholesterol. Have you been eating Taco Bell and In-N-Out three meals a day, every day?" my doctor asked me. I looked at my athletic frame and wanted to deny the validity of my blood test. But when I really thought about my food intake, namely from Pitzer's dining hall selection, I had my answer - cheesy "ethnic" foods glazed with your choice of hoi sen or soy sauce, greasy hot dogs and pizza...
