...There are, of course, plenty of different ways to look at problems, but I suspect what's really missing here are the two most important political products: a Party of Sanity, representing the pragmatic centrism of the business and professional elites, and a Party of Passion, representing populist anger about outsourcing, illegal immigration, social permissiveness and Bush's overseas activism. In fact, Democracy Corps-a polling consortium run by Democrats James Carville, Stan Greenberg and Bob Shrum-- tested products named after well-known popularizers of the economic aspects of these points of view: the eminently Sane New York Times columnist...
Cunningham wants to be clear up front about the whole Whitman thing. "That came in later," he says, over a double cappuccino at a Greenwich Village cafe. "I suspect it will look to some people like [I thought], 'Virginia Woolf was a gold mine. I might as well try to cash in on Whitman as well.'"

Felt, for his part, had good reason to speak up now, according to Vanity Fair: mortality and money. A leading suspect for years, he had always firmly denied he was Deep Throat, including in his memoir, The FBI Pyramid from the Inside, published in 1979.

If anyone had the monopoly over damaged souls and troubled teens it was McKenzie. The elfin actress first broke hearts as the little girl lost in a gang of neo-Nazi skinheads in Romper Stomper (1992), and proved the perfect Ophelia in Neil Armfield's acclaimed 1994 production of Hamlet. But when that play toured, her role was taken over...
...venom directed at faculty members by students themselves. Across the country, Shi'ite students have demanded the ouster of Sunni teachers, especially those who were senior members of the Baath Party during Saddam's rule. Many professors protest that they were forced to join the party, but some students suspect they remain loyal to Saddam and favor like-minded pupils. "There are still professors here who openly praise the previous regime and encourage [Sunni] students to sing songs about Saddam," says Haider, a Shi'ite pharmacy student at the University of Baghdad. "Such people should be driven...
