never had the opportunity to be a part of day to day office business. I knew I would be at the bottom of the totem pole as an intern, but I wanted to feel as if I was making an impact on Senator Reid’s last year in office. In an office as large as Harry Reid’s it is hard to feel as if you are making an impact. I had the misconception that I would be working closely with him; however, thus far I have only spoken with the Senator one time. Within the first week I readjusted my expectations to try and

recently received my first issue of GQ magazine and I began to look for any interesting articles and I came across a very amusing one. It was called "On Buying Tampons"i by Elwood Reid. Ordinarily, I would never look at an article with the word "tampons" in the title simply because I have no interest in them, but Reid must have known that a simple cartoon sketch would catch my attention. The picture shows a man who is receiving odd looks from a bunch of men while purchasing an oversized box of tampons

begun anew if it fails, altering the climate is something that cannot be easily undone. Whatever happens, we shall all be forced to live with the consequences for a very long time. The author of Ozone and Climate Change - A Beginner's Guide, Stephen J. Reid, has managed to put one of the most complex environmental problems into the simplest words.

figure out who did it, but one of the most common, and often the only, piece of evidence and investigator can gather is a confession. To get these confessions investigators often use a harsh and aggressive method of interrogation known as the Reid technique.
