Harvard’s offense has been virtually unstoppable the last two games under quarterback Neil Rose. Two weeks ago, Rose led the Crimson to 38 first-half points against Columbia before leaving the game with a mild injury. Last week against Penn, the quarterback turned in perhaps the finest performance of his career, completing 18-of-26 passes for 270 yards, three touchdowns and—again—no interceptions. These numbers came against the nation’s top-ranked scoring defense entering the game...

More worrisome is the fact that the number of people most vulnerable to these adverse effects--those with compromised immune systems, such as patients in chemotherapy or with AIDS--has increased considerably since the last mass inoculations. Most experts believe that only a confirmed...
...despite international opposition. Although it is indisputable that some Chechen separatists have resorted to attacks on civilians, the “cleansing” efforts of the Russian military and its refusal to cooperate with United Nations human rights observers have little to do with preventing terrorism. Now even mild condemnations of Russia’s human rights violations may be withheld in exchange for Russia’s partnership in the coalition against Osama bin Laden...
