  1. Not a 'quota woman'

    Margaret Thatcher never cared much for feminism and other progressive equal-rights movements. Yet she deserves to be honored by those of us who do, whether we like the result of her politics or not.

  3. Can You Be Pro-Women and Still Think Sheryl Sandberg is a Tool?

    Can you be for female empowerment in the workplace, believe there is an unjust double standard for women in every aspect of life from assertiveness to sexuality, observe Equal Pay Day and generally be just feminist as f*** while still thinking Sheryl Sandberg, Facebook COO and author of “Lean In: Women, Work, and the Will to Lead,” is a total tool?

  5. Big Read, big issues: Tim O'Brien to discuss 'The Things They Carried' in Miami

    When Tim O’Brien’s collection of Vietnam War stories, “The Things They Carried,” was published in 1990, a New York Times reviewer placed it “high up on the list of best fiction about any war.” Which must have pleased O’Brien, who told an NPR panel on the book's 20th anniversary that he hoped it would continue to resonate not just with his fellow Vietnam vets but high school students, the true target of the book.

  7. Review: "Mr. Wrigley's Ball Club" by Roberts Ehrgott

    Yankee fans, including my wife, find it endearing and slightly pathetic that while they invoke the names of World Series-winning heroes to exalt their team's history — Ruth! Gehrig! DiMaggio! Reggie! Derek! — Cub fans grow dewy-eyed to recall the stars — Banks! Santo! Ryno! Wood! — of teams who didn't win even so much as the chance to lose a World Series.

    According to a survey conducted by the Bertelsmann Religion Foundation Monitor, the United States is the most religious nation in the industrialized world. The Pew Forum's U.S. Religious Landscape Survey found that 88% of the Americans it surveyed are fairly or absolutely certain that God exists, and that more than half of them say religion is "very important" in their lives.

  11. Maryland Symphony Orchestra: 'A Night at the Movies with the Music of John Williams'

    So picture this: You go to the movies and there is no soundtrack accompanying the film. No music to set the scenes, to enhance the moods, to heighten the suspense.
