...better its 15-6 record and continue its seven-game winning streak that includes two consecutive 7-0 victories to end the season. The Red Raiders won an at-large bid to make it into competition. The postseason is far from new to the Crimson and head coach Dave Fish ’72. Teams coached by Fish have won at least one game in each of their last three NCAA Championship appearances...
...Colombian government and the FARC over how to revive peace talks in a four-decade-old civil war that has left some 40,000 dead and millions more displaced.

If humans alone have evolved with capacities that far exceed what they essentially need, then intelligent design needs to be part of the story for us humans. Allen...
Every morning, the water looks different, glassy or choppy, sapphire-colored or muddy gray. One day, we saw a glinting spot of water as long as a rich man's yacht. My husband and I asked, What's that? A school of golden fish? It was the sun angled just so. The next time we saw it, we forgot and said, What's that...
