Auch says neither he nor any members of his medical staff were consulted about an Iraqi, later dubbed "Ice Man," when he was first brought to the prison for interrogation by military intelligence. "They didn't check the detainee medically when he came in," says Auch. That may have been a mistake. The man expired under questioning in the middle of the night in an episode that has been officially ruled a homicide. According to statements made during an Army inquiry, military personnel ordered the body put on ice and then spirited it away after medics attached a fake...

This infuriating person inevitably goes to get an ice cream cone moments before you do, and, despite having attended one of the nation’s finest institutions for at least a year or two, is absolutely mesmerized and befuddled by the operation of the soft serve machine.

And as two Dartmouth defenders move in to break up her drive, the crowd hasn’t thought much of the fact...
...losers of three straight NFC championship games. The Eagles are a team that has not always been great, but that has nonetheless been blessed with a fanatically loyal group of fans. Eagles fans are the stuff of legend; these are the people who have booed injured Dallas Cowboys, thrown ice balls at Santa Claus and necessitated the creation of an “Eagles Court” beneath the stadium to deal with rowdiness. Yet Eagles fans do have a softer and more civilized side to them. The franchise is one of the few remaining to have...
