Re: “Troika Music Festival turns to local stars and organization”
That seems like an almost prepostrous discepancy between what most of the local bands are making and what the Rosebuds are making. They're not a prominent local band?

Re: “Troika Music Festival turns to local stars and organization”
I'm a little confused Grayson. You mention that touring bands will be paid $75 and prominent local bands will make $100. Later in the article you seem to imply that the Rosebuds are the festivals largest expense and will be paid over $2,500 to play. This cannot possibly be true.

Re: “Academia under siege”
Michael Munger is described in this article as a "conservative" who chairs the Duke Political Science Department. A quote from him in the same paragraph implies worry about a "total lack of conservative voices" on college campuses (or maybe just Duke). What am I missing? Does Dr. Munger not consider himself a conservative, or just feel part of the minority? I would think that a department chair at a major university would have a reasonable amount of influence. "Total lack" of conservative voices? Don't sell yourself so short Mikey.
