...second boats to capture the Sharp Cabrillo Cup with a time of 5:52.31. “The race went really well,” said senior bow seat Breffny Morgan. “Our boat got off to a really clean and powerful start and the pace we set was controlled through the middle of the race, and that allowed us to hold off a strong Washington.” The win in the finals yesterday was made all the more impressive by the fact that the Huskies defeated the Crimson by over three seconds in Saturday?...

...While a monthly fund-raising total of $30 million or more would be well short of the more than $55 million Obama raised during the month of February, it would still represent nearly $1 million a day - a healthy pace for a campaign that has had a politically rocky last few weeks. And it likely ensures that Obama will be able to afford large TV and radio advertising buys in the remaining primary states, the official claimed...
