...stunning 1967 military victory in six days against six Arab states bent on its destruction, then-Israeli Defense Minister Moshe Dayan waited for the proverbial phone to ring, only to be disappointed that his Arab counterparts still clung to their bellicose calls to “drive the Jews into the sea.” It took several more lost wars and decades of violence for Egypt, Jordan, and the PLO to engage in peace negotiations. Perhaps all Israel can do is wait for Hamas to fully grasp the futility of its immoral and failed objectives. In the meantime, Hamas?...
...HARVARD 6With a comfortable lead going into what would have been the final frame, the Crimson gave up four runs, tying the score at six. The Bears began the seventh inning rally with a one-out infield hit followed by a walk and a single to right to drive in one. The following three runs came after a walk loaded the bases and a hard ground ball up the middle scored two. The third tally came on an error in center field to knot the score. The Crimson had two chances to score, but did not manage to reach base...
...declare Dartmouth as the race’s victors with a time of 5:51.8 to Harvard’s 5:51.85. MIT finished in third place with a time of 6:06.4. “It really came down to the luck of who was on the drive and who was on the recovery,” He said. “But from this race we learned we can fight [crews] back by staying in our race plan. We have to stop their move and once we stop their move we have to move away...
...pollute - even while requiring them to reduce that pollution - was anathema, as if it made some form of pollution O.K. But you can't argue with results - emissions of SO2 and NO have dropped drastically, as has acid rain. Emissions trading worked because by pricing the air, it helps drive innovation towards pollution control and efficiency, funded in part by the value of the emissions trading market. (Companies that spent to lower their emissions beneath the cap could recoup that investment by selling their excess emissions credits.) Just as importantly, it did so on the cheap, at a cost considerably...
...truly drive the massive global carbon emissions cuts needed to avert dangerous climate change, a voluntary market like CCX will never be enough. What's needed is a mandatory carbon cap in the biggest carbon market of all - the U.S. If and when that happens, we may see carbon emissions drop as rapidly as SO2 and NO has fallen under Sandor's acid rain market - without emptying our national wallet. "I'm optimistic," says Sandor. "The potential [cap-and-trade] legislation is moving in the right direction. If we design the building right, it won't punish the economy...
