...representative of a military institution whose leadership perceived itself to be under attack from a civilian government it viewed as corrupt and inept. That same institution had governed Pakistan for much of its history, and it was as head of that institution, and in consultation with its top echelon, that Musharraf ruled. It was only when the military leadership opted to retreat from running the government that he was forced to resign. Indeed, quite remarkably for a Pakistani leader of recent vintage, Musharraf departs from power with no serious allegations of personal corruption hanging over his head...
...Ronald Reagan democrat, I was all for McCain in 2000 until the unfortunate effects of the Republican Party's upper echelon sank his efforts. But the traits that made me admire McCain's Straight Talk Express in 2000 are no longer apparent today.

...Crimson (17-1-0, 14-0-0 ECAC) has built itself a comfortable cushion in the scramble for the top seed and home-ice advantage in the season-ending ECAC Tournament. On Sunday, No. 2 Harvard completed its regular-season sweep of the league’s upper echelon with a tidy 4-0 victory over the No. 10 Big Green (11-7-3, 8-5-1) before 1,489 fans at Bright Hockey Center. Sophomore goalie Christina Kessler anchored the effort with her school record-setting eighth shutout of the season, breaking the mark...
