I recently started using the computer at my office, which has a regular-width screen (as opposed to my laptop's wide screen). While updating my blog, I noticed that the page has been formatted to fit properly on a widescreen computer, and not to resize it's self on a regularly-sized screen.
Kang Shin Who has been running a series of articles in the Korea Times about the students who gain admission to universities in the US by any method, legal or not.
