This article is especially disturbing considering I am a heavy user of computer components. There has got to be a better way to deal with this waste.

Obama said it was not for America to determine who would lead Syria, but he added: "A leader who slaughtered his citizens and gassed children to death cannot regain the legitimacy to lead a badly fractured country." Does anyone know what this quote has to do with the Natural Rights Philosophy 18th century philosopher John Locke wrote about in Two Treatise of Government?

This website is a great place to to look up reviews about potential colleges. If you type into the search bar one of the colleges that you are looking at, it will pull up a profile with candid reviews. Most website tell the basic things about colleges, such as tuition, majors, etc. However, the Princeton Review gives candid feedback, such as "A blend of hippies and trust-fund children." What do you guys think of Candid reviews? Do you trust them?
