...Game is so the students can actually have something they can hold over Harvard. Too bad that a few days off isn’t really an equal trade for eternal failure. The legendary Green Bay Packers’ coach Vince Lombardi said, “Winning is habit. So is losing.” It seems that Yale has taken the wrong side of the quotation to heart. Two graduating Yale classes (’05 and ’06) will now leave the not-so-hallowed halls in New Haven without ever knowing what it is like...
...female. He is the one who's pursued, who withdraws, who has to be won over. But there's nothing girly about Ledger's Del Mar. He's classic cowboy, from the way he wrangles his words out through lips opened barely half an inch to his habit of donning his hat to ward off anyone coming too close.

And the following night, Colgate trimmed the Crimson’s 6-1 cushion to a two-goal margin with three goals...
...supposedly shunt away our unwanted and care only for certain types of citizens. We are the ones that segregated the races. Most of all we, and not our enlightened European brethren, are the violent and the crude. Reality, however, even long-suppressed and denied reality, has a nasty habit of rearing its head. As we have all been told by the Associated Press and other mainstream media, the mayhem that swept through neglected and impoverished neighborhoods with large African and Arab communities has been building for decades. Although this is accepted wisdom now, had one suggested the possibility of such...
