A humorous op-ed lampoons California electricity shortages by mixing pop science with fictional antics of Benjamin Franklin. It jests at myths, defines electricity in lay terms, and ends by signaling the serious concern over California's power crisis.
An opinion piece mocks the idea that utilities or industry drive California's electricity shortage. It argues the real cause is college students and even suggests absurd remedies, from extending cords nationwide to building a giant kite as Plan B.
Column notes that high school productions favor long standing musicals over newer works, with Oz and Pippin among common choices. Critics say Broadway trends clash with teen life and stage limits, while licensing bodies caution about mature themes in modern shows. Performers remain tied to classics.
A lively critique of 1990s capitalism and market populism. The author denounces wealth concentration, estate tax debates, and the ruling class’s influence while praising Frank’s sharp cultural analysis and populist optimism.
The author weighs Bush plan to fund religious social services against church independence. Government support could attract entanglement with political powers, prompt charity to align with donors, or dilute spiritual aims. Yet life changing programs like Prison Fellowship and Teen Challenge show promise if participation is voluntary and grants go to effective providers regardless of faith.
