Facing three squads in the top 25, the Harvard wrestling team knew its slate would be a daunting one. But with two forfeits due to injury at the Journeyman/Brute Northeast Duals on Saturday, the Crimson found the challenge insurmountable.Despite a few grind-out efforts, including an undefeated performance from junior co-captain Louis Caputo, Harvard (0-3) fell by lopsided margins to No. 21 Old Dominion, No. 24 Virginia, and No. 5 Missouri in Troy, N.Y.“We wrestled against some [teams] ranked very high,” junior co-captain J.P.

...little sister's ex-husband, state trooper Mike Wooten, fired by pressuring - and then dismissing - Commissioner of Public Safety Walt Monegan. French has been the focal point of the McCain campaign's objections to the Troopergate investigation. They say French, as a Democrat, has a partisan ax to grind. And while the mostly Republican committee had voted unanimously to start the investigation before Palin was on the McCain ticket, French, the committee chair, did make some incautious statements to the media weeks ago, suggesting the committee's findings might be an "October surprise" or even grounds for impeaching Palin...
