...Ashe's game-winner seemed so innocuous--with nobody to pass to in the Harvard zone, he flicked the puck on net and goalie Aaron Israel, hardly expecting his dice roll to come up snake-eyes. A simple dump-in, nothing more. But suddenly, the clock froze at 1:55, the red siren blared, and the Beanpot final was over...

Beavis and Butt-head have inherited the controversial legacy of Lenny Bruce and Andrew "Dice" Clay. These raucous entertainers force us to confront the fact that in a society which supposedly prizes freedom, repression actually fuels the national consciousness.

...arisen to end the standoff. If Israel is to have any hope of a permanent, sustainable solution to a perpetual terror, it must take a chance. General Sharon, whose bold military exploits earned him his reputation, should know better than anyone that it is sometimes necessary to roll the dice...
