As the story goes, in Genesis 22, God instructed Abraham to take
his beloved son Isaac to Moriah to be sacrificed. The two gathered
rations and set out. I'm sure that was an awkward trip, because -
and here's the kicker - Abraham never told Isaac he was planning to
kill him. I must assume if Abraham, a pillar of Judeo-Christian
theology, had disclosed his plans for Isaac's imminent death, it
might have been harder to convince Isaac to come along. The two
arrived, and the presumably confused Isaac was then bound and
placed on the altar. Just when it looked like curtains for Isaac,
an angel intervened before Abraham's knife found its mark. Thank
God...

Mine was one of the 17,000 faces at the Kohl Center last
Tuesday, part impassioned by the surge of excitement and love for
this candidate and part aware of the ridiculousness of my feelings.
Lost among screaming students and blaring music, it felt not so
different from a drunken football game or concert. The Neanderthal
mentality seems to come to the surface when things get big.

Ray is a black man with a slight build, odd gaps between his
teeth and an earnestly friendly expression. He's the type of person
who will gladly sit and play cards with strangers for hours.

How's that New Year's weight loss resolution going for you? The
overly common premise of television commercials this time of year
contains the typically chubby American scrambling to the nearest
Bally's with hope of banishing that flabby physique. While these
advertisements can be a source of motivation for individuals with a
slowing metabolism and sedentary lifestyle, the unequally
distributed and improperly focused television ads for weight loss
are vastly ineffective, and bordering on sexist.

Take a cursory glance at the health news on any given day and
you'll start seeing reoccuring buzzwords pop up again and again.
Antioxidants, in particular, are a popular choice. In my mind, a
typical viewer would likely make note these findings: \Oh, coffee
has antioxidants? Sweet! And blueberries, too? That's friggin'
awesome!"" The news item proceeds to replicate in their head like a
virus. During their next trip to the grocery store, these consumers
may be stricken by a need to pick up said products.
