...from that legal standpoint, obstruction may be the weakest link in Starr's case. The independent counsel has accepted Monica's assertion that she, not Bruce Lindsey, wrote the "talking points." And the discrepancies between Betty Currie's testimony and Monica's -- which Starr seizes on as evidence of Presidential influence -- certainly cut the other way too. "Starr has relied on Lewinsky's version of events as accurate and has reported Currie's contradictory evidence dismissively," says TIME Washington correspondent Elaine Shannon. "But any good defense lawyer would assert that Currie's credibility is greater than that of Lewinsky...
...enemy, Iraq. That's why a victory against the U.S.A. will be a special victory." Iran's team prayed at the tomb of Ayatullah Khomeini before flying off to France. The U.S. sees Iran as a must-win--not for a political victory, but because the Iranians are the weakest team in the group.

Shaw's Mr. Chamberlayne is perhaps the weakest link in the play, if only because his character is so demanding, bearing the brunt of the "Unidentified Guest's" whirling-dervish style of philosophy. But his reactions seem a bit overawed with the grossness of his situation. Ahanna Kalappa '01, on the other hand, plays an utterly confident Lavinia Chamberlayne with masterful posture. She takes advantage...
...biggest offender is the act of typing itself. We just were not made for it. Typing is counter-evolutionary. We evolved to chase cheetahs and bounce babies and roam free and use a variety of muscles, not sit for hours a day (or night) and overwork our weakest muscles by typing...
