When news leaked last spring that Jamie Lynn Spears was pregnant, the media had an absolute field day.
Words like "skank," "slut" and "white trash" seemingly followed the 17-year-old wherever she went. It got so bad that, at one point, a Google search of "dirty whore" yielded "Did you mean Jamie Lynn Spears?"
Now, four months removed from having a beautiful baby girl, Maddie Briann, rumors are surfacing that Spears is indeed pregnant again.

Due to the busy nature of campus in these cramped weeks before Fall Break, I haven't had my usual hours to devote to the ingestion of up-to-the minute campaign coverage. This week, I'm afraid, my knowledge has been reduced to sound-bites and spin-offs, to Jon Stewart and the scrolling banner on FOX News or CNN that I catch while walking through the Campus Center - in short, to that of the average American voter.

When I was in tenth grade, a friend from Hong Kong came to visit me in New York. She had never been to the city before, and I had never shown anyone around by myself. As her self-appointed tour guide, I was determined to give her a real sense of New York. I made a pact with myself: though the requisite tourist sites would make an appearance on my agenda (oh yes, I typed out an agenda), I wanted her to experience my city, to understand what it means to be a native of the greatest place in the world.
