...winning acceptance of Titanic as a badge of honor for all of Belfast faces an all-too-familiar hurdle. Few symbols are regarded as neutral in a city where neighborhoods, education and even sports are still segregated along Catholic-Protestant lines. Many Catholics see Belfast shipbuilding as an exclusively Protestant industry, in which discrimination was endemic. In one notorious incident back in July 1920, a Protestant mob drove Catholic employees out of the Harland and Wolff shipyard, beating them with sticks. Fifty years later, as Northern Ireland's Troubles were dawning, only 400 of the shipyard's 10,000 employees...

(The researchers believe the genetic change either originated with George Fry or his wife, or that it began with a Fry in England, who died before passing it further.) "These mutations all start somewhere, most of them are neutral, some are beneficial, occasionally you get one that is harmful," says Deb Neklason, lead researcher of the study, published this month in the journal Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology...

As the Tigers cleared the puck from their own zone, Princeton’s Kevin Keiser exited the penalty box in the neutral zone just as the puck deflected in his direction. Finding himself on a breakaway with 2:36 remaining, Keiser buried a wrist shot from the hash mark past Harvard sophomore netminder Kyle Richter for the go-ahead goal. “He was pretty much all alone,” junior forward...
...coach Ted Donato ’91. “I thought our penalty kill was exceptional and gave us a chance to get a point tonight.” Even though Quinnipiac managed to exert some pressure in the offensive zone, Harvard kept up its forecheck in the neutral zone and forced the Bobcats into the corners and behind the net when they could penetrate the Crimson’s zone. Against Princeton (8-8-0, 6-4-0), Richter played a more pivotal role in preventing Harvard’s four penalties from turning into power-play goals...
