...Bravo, TIME, for the year-end wrap-up and Person of the Year selection. Putin has so far served his country well, but he reminds me of one of those classic western movie sheriffs who is brought in to clean up a town and then becomes a bigger bad guy than the bad guys he was asked to eliminate. Putin was weaned by the KGB, and I anticipate the worst from him. His very expression is off-putting. I'm 80 years old, not a profane person and quite benign in my declining years. But when I opened my copy...
...believe in abandoning principles and values that have made this nation great. I say that change is the kind of change like I made... [that] I and others are responsible for in Iraq. That is a big change. But it also goes back to the classic counter-insurgency strategy that has succeeded in the past so... everybody is for change. The reason why they are for change is because the status quo in Washington is not acceptable to the American people. We all know that from every polling data. So is that going to be change?

...strong performance of the penalty killing unit kept the Crimson’s struggling offense, averaging 2.2 goals per contest, in close games. This success came less than a week after Harvard’s special teams allowed three power-play goals in two games during the Ohio Hockey Classic.

ST. CLOUD STATE 4, HARVARD 1In Sunday's consolation game, Harvard ((6-6-2, 5-3-1 ECAC) certainly wasn't sitting on cloud nine. Hindered by numerous penalties, the Crimson watched St. Cloud State float by with a victory after converting on two power plays and slamming...
...Obama would pay tribute to these organizers at each of his events, calling them to the stage, giving them props - and it was surprising how often the local residents in places like Algona and Mt. Pleasant would mention to me how extraordinary these kids were. They reminded me, in classic, solipsistic boomer fashion, of my own generation? of the remarkable political activists who went down to Mississippi to register black voters and marched against another war, and came to politics in the Robert Kennedy and Eugene McCarthy campaigns of 1968. That generation's - my generation's - passion gave...
