...definitely remember that game.”This year, the stage is a bit different. The two squads, both expected to duplicate last season’s success—the Crimson and Wildcats both won their league titles and advanced to the NCAA Frozen Four??have experienced some early-season setbacks. New Hampshire has lost three of its last four games, including two against No.1 Wisconsin. Last Saturday, the Wildcats were upset on the road by Colgate, who edged the Wildcats 5-4.

If continents were simply “continuous bodies of land,” as defined in the Oxford English Dictionary, there would be only four??America, Antarctica, Afro-Eurasia, and Australia. Since that is not the case, it is clear that “continent” now includes national political borders, language isoglosses, and historical circumstances. For example, although Greenland is physically closer to North America, it is a Danish province, and thus a part of the European continent...
