CONTROL. That's what she wanted all along, and guess what? That's exactly what she got. From the second this past weekend's Super Bowl halftime show began, and the infamous Janet Jackson rose from the underbelly of the mid-field stage, she commanded America's attention in a trademark black leather ensemble -- wiping away the memory of shooting star fireworks, flag-waving patriotism, the sheer boredom that New England and Carolina left on the field in the first half and even the bellowing Beyonce -- who just last week was America's prima Donna.
PRESIDENT George W. Bush is by far the most qualified candidate for the presidency. After graduating from Yale University and voluntarily serving in the Air National Guard, President Bush went on to receive a Master's of Business Administration from Harvard.
VIRGINIANS respectfully disagree when asked what the appropriate role of government should be in their lives.
JOHN EDWARDS is George W. Bush's worst nightmare. He's Southern. He's charismatic. And he's running for President.
EVEN THOUGH he has withdrawn from the race, his organization here at U.Va. wanted to give the readers an opportunity to discover what he stood for, and how he differed from the other candidates. Joe Lieberman may come from Connecticut, but he is in many ways the Southern Democrat the American electorate needs and would vote for.
The other morning I awoke to the sound of a jarring telephone ring and an irritatingly professional voice chirping, "Hello, can I please speak to Whitney?
GEN. WESLEY Clark was making headway as an anti-war moderate until his friend Michael Moore started calling President Bush a "deserter." Last year, the country could have had a principled debate on the war, until MoveOn.org entered the fray with its fringe views.
AS AN AVID Philadelphia Eagles fan, I approached the Super Bowl this year with the same despondency with which Cubs and Red Sox fans approached the World Series.
USUALLY grounds for dismissal from one's job entail lackluster performance or breaking the law -- but enrolling in a school within the same university?
WHILE performing at the half-time show of Sunday's Super Bowl, Justin Timberlake tore away part of Janet Jackson's leather body suit, exposing one of her bare breasts on national television during the most-watched event of the year.
FOR THE first two years of the Bush administration, the consensus in Washington, the media and among the American public in general was that the 2004 Democratic challenger would have little or no chance at capturing the White House.
O NJAN.21, The Cavalier Daily ran a lead editorial, "The center cannot hold," regarding the renovation of the Newcomb Hall Informal Lounge to a diversity center.
WELCOME aboard to the 115th staff of The Cavalier Daily, most of which was elected by its peers just over a week ago. CD elections are pretty fascinating proceedings that demonstrate the enthusiasm and vigor that embodies its typical staffers.
IMAGINE, if you will, that all of a sudden, tabling on the Lawn was illegal. Why? Well, it certainly has nothing to do with anyone disliking the practice; it is simply a new safety measure -- the sidewalks need to be as unobstructed as those in front of a hospital. You might protest these regulations as utterly ludicrous, saying tabling helps a lot of student groups and the sidewalks are already quite safe.
IF YOU watched Sunday's Super Bowl halftime show, you know what Janet Jackson's right breast looks like.
IT'S REAL easy in life to think only about the end goal without taking the time to relish the experience of getting there.
On May 16th, I will be walking down the Lawn, with a college degree in hand. Coming from France, I had no clue what to expect, except that I knew I would grow and mature as an individual.
THE ONLY reason I'm writing this is because three and a half years ago, I got cut from the U.Va. Club Water Polo team.
EVERY DAY across Grounds, thousands of students obtain nourishment and fulfillment in the dining halls.
