The Mid-American Conference announced the Football Players of the Week yesterday.
Last week, senior military commanders stood by an earlier statement that some U.S. troops should be able to return home from Iraq early next year. Unfortunately, a complex web of factors is involved in considering the likelihood of a troop reduction in the foreseeable future. With hope, enough progress soon will be made to ensure that as many Americans as possible can return home.
In previous columns, I have mentioned two of the most detrimental aspects of U.S. society - the fact that we live in constant fear of evil people attacking us and that we live our lives based on the pursuit of wealth and status.

November is right around the corner, and once again Ohio has another big election on its hands. Although the issues and candidates in this upcoming election will not receive anywhere near as much media attention as 2004, this election is still every bit as important to Ohioans.

The Sept. 29 editorial, Crossing the line ... Gruesome shock tactics subvert PETA's otherwise laudable goals
PETA's recent exhibit juxtaposing human suffering with animal suffering is meant to show that the oppression of animals is abominable and that the suffering of a subject is equal - whether the subject is a human or nonhuman.

This letter is regarding the Sept. 26 editorial, Religion in disguise ... Intelligent design has no place in schools. I've put a lot of thought into the evolution and intelligent design debate, and I've come to what I see as an excellent conclusion: intelligent design can be taught in the classroom, but only the parts that are validated by scientific research and have been reviewed by a panel of peers in the related field (in this case, evolutionary biology).
Last week about 200 steelworkers marched alongside Columbus Mayor Michael B. Coleman in protest of Ohio jobs being relocated overseas and demanded a response to perpetual job loss in Ohio. In the Ohio House of Representatives there is a bill that would seek to protect Ohio workers by forbidding the state to contract with any company - for five years - that has a net loss of jobs in Ohio. Although the proposed legislation is a serious effort to improve the Ohio worker's life - and is a noble attempt - the bill is flawed not because of its ideals, but its lack of pragmatism.
The Post editorial board's Sept. 29 standpoint regarding PETA's campaign, Crossing the Line ... Gruesome shock tactics subvert PETA's otherwise laudable goals

Having addressed such issues as couch burning, divine command ethics and the love for Nacho Cheese Doritos of those under the influence of certain substances, it is time for Catch Me if you Kant - a title cleverly constructed to corner the market on illiterate Leo DiCaprio fans - to turn its attention to what I'm sure you'll agree is the next logical topic: Abortion.
