...Coach Joe Walsh traces a big question mark in the air with his forefinger.He then pauses, before repeating the exercise and drawing an invisible exclamation point.“You could throw either one of those on there,” he says.Walsh, with his grammatical pantomimes, is referring to the pitching staff of this year’s Harvard baseball team, a unit loaded with uncertainties but possessing immeasurable potential.The rotation is hampered by the loss of two key, experienced starters from a season ago. Mike Morgalis graduated and Frank Herrmann chose to forego his senior season to sign...
...kind of in awe to have these [national] honors bestowed on me, especially with all the kids from the big southern schools like in Texas and Florida,” Salsgiver says.But at Michigan’s top-ranked Davison High School, he did everything. And Harvard head coach Joe Walsh noticed.Besides captaining the hockey and football teams, Salsgiver—also a first-team “character,” according to Walsh—frequently pitched the first game of doubleheaders before suiting up at shortstop in the second, and often came out of the bullpen...

And if the villains are the big guys, the hero can be a terrorist--or should we call V an insurgent...

Bush's "love affair with democracy" and its unintended consequences. Democracy, whether American or God's gift, can't be exported like a product; it requires preconditions. During the cold war, the U.S. created and maintained many ruthless and undemocratic regimes that were eventually overthrown by their citizens. During my graduate work in the U.S. 30 years ago, I read in one of the prescribed political-science texts that the U.S. had no formal foreign policy...
