Front-window spy cam puts Tenderloin on the Web
Seeded on Sun Dec 7, 2008 1:57 AM EST (The San Francisco Chronicle)
Love paragraph number six... Presents an interesting question of privacy versus safety, and the (possible) moral complications with profiting off of someone else's life/misery...
Pacquiao relying on his speed against De La Hoya
Seeded on Sun Dec 7, 2008 1:53 AM EST (The San Francisco Chronicle)
I was so upset I missed this fight. But reading this made me feel better...a little. Good pre-game pep up stuff, but I would've liked to see it fer reals.
Daily Trojan - 'Twilight' a comical chick flick with a dark side
Seeded on Wed Nov 26, 2008 11:41 PM EST (dailytrojan.com)
So even though I've sworn to myself to not give into the horrible temptation to go see this movie....I think i might have to. (and then throw up later mind you...)
Huckabee tells Republicans how to recover - CNN.com
Seeded on Mon Nov 24, 2008 11:37 PM EST (CNN)
I thought that the quotes used in this article were effective in portraying Huckabee as a really likable guy that seems to have some solid advice for his party.
'Idol' champ eyes long-term success - CNN.com
Seeded on Mon Nov 24, 2008 11:30 PM EST (CNN)
This just reminded me of the article and interview that we did with Quietdrive... they even put in a few lines of straight question and answer too. The newsy content of the article itself it alright, though i thought that they could have gone into more detail with paragraph two.
South Korea Joins Lucrative Practice of Inviting Medical Tourists to Its Hospitals - NYTimes.com
Seeded on Sun Nov 16, 2008 11:22 PM EST (The New York Times)
Show not tell lede sums up the entire article nicely. However, there was one point about social inequality that was brought up about possible negative consequences from the flood of people staying long periods.
Obama daughters asked to appear on
Seeded on Tue Nov 11, 2008 2:32 AM EST (Yahoo! News)
Two great dreams realized. They get a puppy AND they get to meet Hannah Montana. Man, am I jealous.

I nicely written article with a lot of humor and most importantly, valid points.

I wish that we could get letters to the editor like these. =\
Bush's man-hunting machines—and Obama's. - By William Saletan - Slate Magazine
Seeded on Mon Oct 27, 2008 9:59 PM EDT (Slate)
I thought that the lead was very...er...confident. I liked it. Though its a very specialized oped that requires a little more thorough reading, I thought that the content was compelling enough.
On Line - In Political Coverage, Nothing Succeeds Like Success - NYTimes.com
Seeded on Mon Oct 27, 2008 9:55 PM EDT (The New York Times)
It just put everything into perspective. Even though most of us realize that the press hypes up almost all of its coverage, that doesn't stop us from buying into it. Nice statistics to back up opinion.
Paly Voice: Dedicated senior golfer initiates Paly's first girls' golf club
Seeded on Sun Oct 19, 2008 3:43 PM EDT (voice.paly.net)
I thought that this mirrored the kind of articles that we have been running about our sports teams, particularly about of (new) girls golf team. As an occasional golfer myself, I was pleased to see that this appears to be a growing trend among other high schools.
ASIAN POP / Could Obama be the first Asian American president?
Seeded on Sun Oct 19, 2008 3:34 PM EDT (The San Francisco Chronicle)
I thought that starting the article with a long quote was an interesting choice; it threw me off, because I initially thought that the quote had been said about Barack Obama...until I read the last part of it anyways.
Op-Ed Columnist - Dear Old Golden Dog Days - NYTimes.com
Seeded on Sat Oct 11, 2008 3:06 AM EDT (The New York Times)
I loved paragraph number two. Actually, I really liked the whole thing...it put the last few months in retrospect, and it made me a little bit nostalgic too... It was witty and reflective, I liked the scrappiness of the paragraph three from the bottom.
Cambodian couple saw house in half in divorce - Yahoo! News
Seeded on Sat Oct 11, 2008 2:51 AM EDT (Yahoo! News)
Thank you grandma for sending me this link =] I thought this was a bizarre news event that was a fun read. It gives perspective; because at least the majority of us don't end up splitting apart our houses after we break up with someone.
Sure, Anderson Cooper is cute and young, but get a grip, CNN
Seeded on Sun Sep 28, 2008 1:19 AM EDT (The San Francisco Chronicle)
Alright I know this is old, but come on, its Anderson Cooper... As far as Opeds go, this is an interesting read, the quality of writing is good and its humorous and critical at the same time. ...........i want his job. =O
Fashion Review - Milan Fashion Review - Dsquared, Fendi, Gucci, Marni, MaxMara, Versace - Review - NYTimes.com
Seeded on Sun Sep 28, 2008 1:10 AM EDT (The New York Times)
I love how critical this is; the writer clearly knows what she's talking about. The first paragraph is very story-telling-ish, and the second paragrph clearly packs the punch in the review.
The Accidental Vegetarian: Falling for roasted vegetables
Seeded on Sat Sep 20, 2008 11:19 PM EDT (The San Francisco Chronicle)
I personally love fall, so the great adjectives to describe the season that are used in the lead hooked me right away. I also happen to really like roasted vegetables...
Deadly blast targets Marriott Hotel in Islamabad - CNN.com
Seeded on Sat Sep 20, 2008 11:14 PM EDT (CNN)
The article is vivid in description and to the point. It does a good job on reporting what happened; it includes witness reports, a possible cause, and it also portrays the emotions of the people who are suffering because of what happened.
Ratto: Cal has savored success, Stanford has had a taste
Seeded on Thu Aug 28, 2008 2:14 AM EDT (The San Francisco Chronicle)
While I normally would bypass football related stories, I was intrigued by the beginning of the first line. I liked it because I thought that it rang true, and not just for college football, but for any sports team.
How to have a cow. - By Bonnie Goldstein - Slate Magazine
Seeded on Thu Aug 28, 2008 2:04 AM EDT (Slate)
I thought that the topic was hilarious to read about. I would've never guessed that something as sacred/painful such as giving birth would be put on display for so many people to observe. I feel a little sense of sarcasm, but its sarcasm that I can appreciate.
In Grand Olympic Show, Some Sleight of Voice - NYTimes.com
Seeded on Tue Aug 19, 2008 1:19 AM EDT (The New York Times)
The lead of the story is really well-written because it gives the who, what, where, and when all in one long sentence.
The mystery of Michael Phelps' iPod playlist - Fourth-Place Medal - Olympics - Yahoo! Sports
Seeded on Mon Aug 18, 2008 2:57 AM EDT (Yahoo! Sports)
I thought that this was an interesting insight to the legend that is Michael Phelps; and I promise that I'm not seeding this because I am a "phan".Overall this article was a creative insight to something that a lot of people have seen this last week.
