...keep al-Qaeda from bombing voting sites. In addition to this day of relative peace in Iraq--reported attacks were well below average-- the Dec. 15 vote bore another marked contrast to January's violent election day: Sunni Arabs didn't boycott this time and instead turned out en masse, with the hope of tipping the scales of Iraqi political power. With a significant voting bloc in parliament--final results are due to be released by the end of December--Sunnis would be able to curb the influence of the Shi'ite religious parties and perhaps muster enough bargaining power...

The Terriers shot an astounding 66.7 percent from the field in the second half, outscoring the Harvard women’s basketball team 42-27 en route to a 70-59 win last night at Lavietes Pavilion. Scoring at a 38.9 clip from the three-point line, BU also went 15-for-19 from the free throw line—including several clutch shots down the stretch when Harvard employed the steal-foul strategy to try to claw...
