In the dead of winter we shouldn’t expect much green on the Yard, but when the temperature rises above 50 degrees, the University shouldn’t bother spraying that unsightly, disgusting mix all over the place.

...people behind Mather Lather also repudiate the idea that the party is merely another attempt to ride the wave of foam currently sweeping the campus.

The land is so empty at times that a mere stand of trees is welcome relief...

A new car with five self-styled Kurdish guerillas drove by, telling a stirring tale of gunfights and escape and pointing to a bullethole and a smashed window in the side of the car. The car plates, however, were covered over with mud - usually a sign that a car has been looted or stolen. Local people say they have not seen U.S. troops in the city, despite news reports. The troops will have to move in fast and have a law inforcement land aid if they are to prevent the scenes of "untidiness...
