...Rogers got the scoring action going at 13:10 in the first, seconds after Harvard’s first power-play opportunity ended. Assistant captain Alex Biega stole the puck from a Union defenseman before passing it to Rogers, waiting on the left post.

...sloppy first half. Penn jumped out to a 12-6 lead five minutes in as it constantly beat the Crimson up the floor for baskets.

...Obama's almost fetishistic pursuit of Republicans - two hours spent with the crabby minority at the Capitol! - is another attempt to deprive his enemies of a Great Satan. The President will make some Republican-oriented concessions, dropping some of the cheesier spending from the stimulus plan. He will get some GOP votes for his stimulus package, but more important, he is establishing himself as a relentlessly reasonable and polite presence in town - and his comity is making it all the more difficult for buffoons like Rush Limbaugh to influence the tone of the Republican opposition...
