...Crimson also breathed new life into a Big Red drive late in the third quarter. Cornell’s Drew Alston punted it into the endzone for a touchback, but as the Harvard offense prepared to take the field, the yellow flag flew. The call, 12 men on the field, undid the punt and gave the Big Red a first down...
...DeMille who turned Moses into a symbol of American power in the Cold War. The 1956 epic The Ten Commandments, which in its inflation-adjusted total ranks as the fifth highest grossing movie of all time, opened with DeMille appearing onscreen.

...during the investigation into Kebble's death that the hapless Agliotti's relationship with Selebi emerged. Selebi, who was the country's first black police chief, once said of Agliotti that he was "my friend, finish and klaar [done]." The two men now appear to be estranged. They did not look at each other in court, and at one point during last week's testimony, Agliotti seemed close to tears when he said, "It's not easy being here. I didn't want to be here to testify against my then friend and the accused...
