...varsity lightweights turned in a similar performance to the heavies, rowing strongly but ultimately falling short to a familiar foe. Harvard blew past most of the field easily in the Grand Final, with its 5:43.990 showing beating third-place Georgetown by over four seconds. But Princeton, which had dealt the Crimson its only loss of the season on April 25, had Harvard’s number once again. The Tigers jumped out to an immediate lead, and while the Crimson stayed close and made a push around the 1000-meter mark, Princeton ultimately held on to win the race...
...observation again raises a question that’s not uncommon among those who’ve dealt with Nesson: Is he brash, disrespectful, and out of his mind? Or is he simply five steps ahead of everybody else? For Nesson and his team, the Tenenbaum case has never been solely about file-sharing charges. It’s about defending open access, to the internet and to the judicial process.

Reo quickly found links to official public health sites and old-fashioned good advice from moms and dads of CHD children who had dealt with flu outbreaks in the past...
...negative reason the U.S. talked to the Baathists and seems set to talk to the Taliban: not talking isn't working out very well. But that alone doesn't justify a change in policy. Critics point out that dealing with Hamas would break precedent, since the U.S. never publicly dealt with Yasser Arafat's Palestine Liberation Organization until it accepted Israel and renounced violence. They say Hamas must be forced to choose between the ballot and the bullet. They're right - it must. But what matters is getting it to choose, not whether Hamas chooses before we talk...
