...problem for the Crimson wasn’t necessarily garnering yardage, although the Big Green defensive line did an admirable job of keeping star running back Clifton Dawson from his typical 100-yard, three-TD outing. The sophomore was held to just 69 yards—only the second time this season he has failed to break the century mark—and no touchdowns. As a result, Dawson’s departure in the beginning of the fourth quarter due to a muscle injury was not the backbreaker for the offense that it might have ordinarily been...
DURING AFGHAN PRESIDENT HAMID Karzai's first campaign outing two weeks ago, an enemy rocket whizzed by his U.S. military helicopter and slammed into the camelback hills where he was supposed to land. Karzai brushed off the near miss, but his American guardians insisted on returning to Kabul. Half-jokingly, Karzai said, "I'm an Afghan, and I promise I'll take my revenge."

I’ll bet your employer didn’t even like you enough to pay for your brown bag lunch, but my firm bought me seared ahi lunch and fire grilled dinner. My bosses even bought me breakfast on the days that I brought them coffee...
...this line wasn't crafted by a spin doctor or slipped in by a local party hack. He knew the region, its history and its issues, because his Nanna and Pop retired to the region and he'd spent many school holidays with them. At his first "new politics" outing as leader, he listened with Clintonian empathy for two hours as people spoke about the issues they wanted Latham to take back to Canberra...
