...White House. Dole is expected to endorse George W. Bush Tuesday, and members of Bob Dole's 1996 campaign staff say the missus has her eyes set squarely on a VP nod. Whether or not she gets that, such an announcement would further highlight the split between the Bush-backing GOP establishment and maverick John McCain. More important: The endorsement blocks the Dole surname from landing in the McCain camp. Bob Dole has long shown a desire to support McCain, his former brother-in-arms on the Senate floor, and Liddy's siding with Bush now makes that unlikely...
TRANSFERRED. THE PANAMA CANAL, 50-mile engineering feat, shipping lane and cruise-ship highlight; after 96 years of U.S. control; to Panama. At a ceremonial hand-over, Jimmy Carter, who brokered the transfer treaty in 1977, told Panama's President Mireya Moscoso, "It's yours...

Only about half the crowd had stayed for the closing performance, by freestyle rap duo Scott & Chiqui (comprising Scott Roy '99 and Chiqui Matthew '00, with Tyler Wood '01 as turntablist), but as the duo called the audience forward, it became clear that the wait was worth it. Roy and Matthew's rhymes flowed smoothly, and their old-school touches (human beatbox effects and a strong effort at turntablism). Perhaps the best display...
