(Mis)Adventures in Domesticity: Vegan macaroon recipe goes awry
Oct. 2, 2008This year already has brought several firsts in my life. For the first time I am renting my own house, paying bills and making weekly trips for groceries and house supplies.

Spice Up Your Life: PETA motion violates 'ethical treatment of humans'
Oct. 1, 2008People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals has made headlines once again. This time, it has sent a letter to Ben & Jerry's Homemade Ice Cream suggesting they use human milk instead of cow milk to make their cold treats.

Your Turn: Early voting guarantees registration, shortens Election Day lines for others
Oct. 1, 2008Four years ago, many Ohioans were forced to wait up to 11 hours in line at the polls on Election Day. Some finally made it to the front of the line only to discover they weren't eligible to vote because they had not signed for mailings from election officials. According to House Judiciary Committee Chair John Conyers (D-MI), the net effect was that three percent of all Ohio voters who showed up to vote on Election Day were forced to leave without casting a ballot. Most affected were inner city voters and college students, groups which predominantly vote Democratic. The three percent of voters turned away accounted for 55,000 more people than Bush's margin of victory in Ohio.
