If Hillary Clinton wins the US presidency, Bill Clinton will be given the job of repairing America's damaged international reputation, the former president tells the Guardian in an interview today. Mr Clinton, 61, reveals that his wife has said she would ask him to "go out and immediately restore America's standing, go out and tell people America was open for business and cooperation again" after eight years marked by unilateralist policies that have "enrage[d] the world".

Monday night, a record number of noise complaints were received by Residential Security Officers in Roger Revelle College. Officers responding to the calls found the sexual activity of a deaf couple to be the source of the noises, which were described as "cacophonous" by witnesses. The first officer on the scene, Frank Zipelli, reported, "I could hear those two all the way from the parking lot." According to Zipelli, "It sounded as if they were bludgeoning a cow.

Unlocking the Secret of the Acronym (early) Morning, all! In my perusing I’ve run across a particular acronym I haven’t been able to figure out. I admit I’m not the sharpest tack in the box, so I figure I would give it one last shot, then gather wisdom from you experts. The acronym is IMO IMO: Iguana Meatball Omelette? I’m Mentally Oscillating? Imagine Monica(LewdINski) in Office? (ew!) Iggys Marvelous Oldsmobile? Imagine My Overbite? Anyway, thank you in advance for your input. God Bless

T minus Two d, twenty-three h, fifty-five m, and, bah-dumph, the Commander-in-chief shall meet his constitutionally-sanctioned would-be assassin (with a ballot-paper). And, the location of this rendezvous shall be...

And, true to form for Texas Democrats, the inheritance from retired secretary Martha Hughes, who never married and left nothing to family members, has ignited finger-pointing in a party that needs...

Here's an amusing item from Claude Salhani, Culture Vulture columnist for United Press International: The "Holidays," as the year-end religious festivities are generically referred to in the United States - lest we risk irritating the politically correct, God forbid - are rapidly coming up. Only 20-some harrowing shopping days left until Christmas, fewer yet until the Muslim Eid, and even less days left till Hanukkah. And as always, we ponder what in the world to purchase for people we love, or maybe simply feel obligated to buy something for. The hardest choices are usually what to get those who have...
