Thank you
I’m happy that Moscow is so pedestrian and bicycle friendly. If drivers on Third Street didn’t stop it would take me an hour to get to
campus. What I don’t understand is that I have to wait longer to cross on A Street. Weird.

Charitable … or not
Paris Hilton was in India this week and saw a poor woman carrying her baby in the street so she gave her $100, and a total of $2000 because she was moved by the poverty she saw, which she later tweeted — sweet right? Turns out she was originally there to open new Paris Hilton stores.

#WOTD
Every day, Katie Couric tweets her word of the day. Wednesday’s word was “Logomachy, noun. A dispute about words.” We have a lot of logomachies up here in the Arg office.

As much as the Sox gave it to them, the Rays came out Wednesday night, down by 7, and earned their spot.

Love is never selfish
When her brother needed a kidney transplant, Kari Roberts was told she couldn’t be a donor because she was overweight. Three years and 135 pounds later, doctors say Roberts is the perfect match to donate a kidney. Her dedication to losing weight in order to save her brother’s life is a perfect example of the
unconditional love between siblings.

Isn’t it weird how the sun lightens your hair, but darkens your skin?

Letting go
If a person desires to succeed in the present or future, let go of the past. Don’t forget the past, but learn from it and take the knowledge gained and use it advantageously. Dwelling on shoulda, coulda, woulda will only end in frustration and treading just above water. Make the most of the past and learn from it.
