Gavrilo Princip, a young Bosnian student living in Serbia, fired two shots to assassinate Archduke Francis Ferdinand, heir to the throne of Austria-Hungary, and his wife Sophia in 1914. The great empire retaliated by declaring war on Serbia and World War I began.
In typical pre-election fashion, John Kerry used the crisis in Haiti as a political ploy last week, criticizing the Bush administration for its lack of assistance to former leader Jean-Bertrand Aristide. In classic if-I-were-in-his-shoes manner, Kerry admonished the president and declared boldly, "I would not have allowed it to arrive at where it was."
It was a sad week for Ace and Gary in America. With President Bush's endorsement of a same-sex marriage amendment, firm institutional resistance against homosexual love has been exposed starting from the very top. It appears the Ambiguously Gay Duo will have to keep their love for each other oblivious to the law.
The ASU campus is a beautiful thing. Thousands of attractive young women with their perfectly sculpted bodies and bronzed skin populate the University grounds, making ASU the Mecca of good looks in the desert.
This is the golden era of Arizona State University.
Just one month ago, I (still) believed the newly endowed W. P. Carey School of Business would give me an education to prepare me to succeed in the corporate world. Instead, my views have been profoundly altered since the January premiere of NBC's hit reality series, "The Apprentice," as I now realize how to truly succeed in the business world. Let's recap all the lessons we can learn from this show:
This is incredible. Last week, toy maker Mattel and rapper 50 Cent jointly announced in a press release that they will form a partnership to market a new 50 Cent doll. The figurine will be an exact 1/10 size replica of 50 Cent and is the first in a new line of dolls trying to capture the "new hip youth generation," said a spokesperson. On a controversial note, accessories for the doll will include a bulletproof vest, a bottle of Bacardi, and a matching diamond watch and necklace to adorn lil' 50 in bling.
Multiple Personality Disorder was virtually unheard of in medical history until the second half of the 20th century when, after the release of several popular films, including "The Three Faces of Eve" and "Sybil," the number of people diagnosed with this disorder dramatically increased. Between 1985 and 1995, 40,000 cases of MPD were diagnosed in the United States. But in the last few years, skeptics have regained ground and now nearly all psychology textbooks refer to the disease as a rarity, and most usually a hoax.
A family day of turkey, stuffing and mashed potatoes instead of boring lectures is enough to make any student happy at Thanksgiving. And after the grueling stretch of finals, we can look forward to it again around Christmas.
"Love actually is all around," declares Hugh Grant in the new British romantic comedy "Love Actually."
Disease has always had social implications, and due to the possibility of public embarrassment or even ostracism because of one's medical condition, physicians have long respected the doctor-patient privilege. Sexually transmitted diseases, for example, traditionally have been taboo subjects, requiring delicate handling lest one's "dirty laundry" be aired openly.
History is filled with examples of empires flourishing under the watch of great leaders and crumbling due to poor and corrupt leadership.
By 2050, the global population will grow nearly 40 percent to reach 8.9 billion, according to the United Nations.
Almost 200,000 Arizona families lack an affordable home. According to a report commissioned by the Governor's Department of Housing Development, Arizona suffers from a shortage of permanent affordable homes for working families due to an explosive population growth with an increasing proportion of low-income working families.
Mass marketing efforts burn products into our heads, compelling us to buy them bulk.
When gas prices rose above $2 earlier this year, most of us complained. Many believed they were being ripped off, that the oil companies behind all this weren't telling them something. When some gas stations charged outrageous prices as high as $4, it was easy to see they were taking advantage of us. But these minor price hikes pale in comparison to the full spectrum of disgraceful actions taken by the worldwide oil industry.
Since the atomic bombs were dropped on Japan to end World War II, citizens of the world have lived with the reality of nuclear warfare. In this post-atomic age, much diplomacy and foreign policy has been aimed at preventing what many envision as an apocalyptic third World War. While the United States succeeded to put an end to the two World Wars, nuclear warfare dictates that nations must prevent World War III before it starts - which is why the United States should pay closer attention to what's going on in South Asia.
The fight against AIDS is failing on two very distant fronts these days.
I have to smile when I watch President George W. Bush on television. There's something quite comical about the man, protruding ears and all. Dubya has brought words such as "strategery" into our language - he'd make a hilariously successful stand-up comedian. Yet every time I hear him speak, I still find it hard to believe he is the president of the United States of America.
