...Obama, and the candidate is using his vast war chest to bulk up his already huge staff. Meanwhile, John McCain still lags in support from the donors and religious conservative leaders who helped George W. Bush. But he did get his daughter Meghan to register as a Republican. Taking frequent days off from the stump hasn't helped McCain, but there's a bigger problem: the media continue to find Obama a more compelling story, with daily features, blanket coverage and long profiles. McCain was once a media darling too, but his strategists haven't yet figured...

This winter, when the women’s hockey team soared to No. 1, Eliot’s housemaster, Lino Pertile, inspired a regular...
There’s no rest for the weary and no comfort on the road for frequent travelers. The Harvard women’s water polo team knows that all too well after playing 22 of its 24 games on the road this season.Its daunting schedule included a two-day, five-game road trip to Oneonta, N.Y., a three-game excursion to sunny Southern California, and a four-game stay in Utica, N.Y. for the Northern Championships. The team did not enjoy much respite at home either, dropping both of its home games in routs against admittedly difficult opponents...
