I just tried the Lemon Fruit Water and it tasted artificially sweetened to me (well it is "artificial" in that lemon and water together are not naturally sweet but it tasted like a diet beverage to me. It gave me the same kind of bitter aftertaste.)
The peach is close to perfect. Peachy, lightly sweet, no aftertaste. I've noticed that their lemon stuff has been hit or miss--I thought the lemon ginger tasted like plastic and left a nasty aftertaste, and was very, very happy when they got rid of it and brought the lemon cucumber out.
Universities sometimes do not allow sororities to live in houses because of "security issues". I was told this by one college administrator. I am not sure what keeps all-male house from being crime targets, but my guess is that the university would have the policy because of the fear of a rapist gaining entry.
Houses where I attended, even if owned by the university, did not have a guard at the front door monitoring entry like all other dormitories did.
Sororities were allowed block housing in dormitories and were given townhouse style suite situations in another dormitory.
"There are no sorority houses because of an old brothel law."
When my mother attended university, she was living at a women's dormitory that had previously been a brothel. They occasionally had blokes turning up who were unaware of the repurposing, and expected entry at difficult hours.
but my guess is that the university would have the policy because of the fear of a rapist gaining entry.
well, that's no different than an all girls dormitory, I would think.
But the University would have direct control over a dorm and could make "no visitor" rules and stuf flike that-- houses had more autonomy.
Still seems like a pretty discriminatory practice to me.
the all girls dormitories, in fact all dormitories, had 24 hour security guards and swipe IDs to gain entry. the fraternity houses had a locked door.
totally discrimination, but I can see that being the policy, even it wasn't an officially written down one.
Hayden has an article up at his blog from the Canadian magazine Macleans which is a very sobering look at the deficit. Which I know isn't what you want to read over lunch, but...it made me think this massive deficit Bush is building will very likely a severe economic collapse.
It doesn't look like a sky-is-falling analysis. Just basic finances.
Anybody else think we're going to see a Depression-level collapse in the next ten years? 'Cuz I'm thinking it might be time to start investing in gold, rather than my 401(k).
At my university the female residence still requires all male guests to sign in, where the other (mostly male residences) don't even lock their doors. When I was a student, male guests could not stay overnight, but I think they may have changed that, at least.
