Mary Jo Reider converted on the first Duke penalty stroke with 14:25 remaining in the first half. Melissa Panasci knocked home a penalty corner for a 2-0 Blue Devil advantage entering the half...
...Democrats' devil-may-care pursuit of campaign money, no scheme was bolder than the secret financial alliance between the party and the re-election campaign of Teamster president Ron Carey. The trade-off, as proposed by Carey aides, boiled down to this: the Teamsters would deliver $1 million to the party's state branches around the country, and in exchange the party would tap its donors to provide Carey with $100,000 for his re-election bid.

Sadly, the likes of "Sloaches Fun House" and "Barflies" made it somehow, stunning in just how uninteresting and blandly, almost methodically offensive they are. "Devil Went Down to Georgia" features bad music; "Illusion of Life" never delivers; "Little Rude Riding Hood" could plausibly belong in the so-bad-it's-good...
