The Rise and Fall of a TV Star

In March of 1959, Charles Van Doren was a name that stirred deep emotions in the people of America.

Van Doren was a likeable young man who had made the cover of TIME magazine as the star of something relatively new in American culture — a television quiz show.

Charlie came from a distinguished family. He was the son of Mark Van Doren, a Pulitzer Prize-winning poet, and nephew of Carl Van Doren, a great historian. Charles Van Doren himself was an outstanding academic, having studied at the Sorbonne and at Columbia. He became a professor of English.

CA$TROBAMA

Following a long bout of silence and after refusing to meet with Obama, Fidel has finally decided to speak out on the president's historic visit to Cuba. He says he is not a happy camper and does not want any gifts.

We can only wonder why after they invited the US President, then pull out the Castro welcome mat?

TERRORISMS

Submitted by ub on

This fear comes in many ways, shapes and forms, Dangerous crimes and attacks, as well as the fear of not being able to financially care for ourselves and our families.

There are multiple fears, with the first being a crisis of security and extremism, as we witnessed on Tuesday in the horrors in Pakistan and Belgium. The second is a crisis of human movement, when hundreds of thousands of refugees are moving and a debate over the means by which to manage them. The third is the world political crisis, in which conventional politics is being challenged by more extreme and intolerant parties.
