Rathgeber was the first one in the pool to start out the meet as the first leg of the 200-yard medley relay. Sophomore Joc Christiana, senior James Lawler and freshman Pat Quinn finished out the relay with a time of 1:35.20 for the win. The Crimson’s other relay teams also did well, with the B-team finishing third and the C-team right behind in fourth...
...review of the campaign promise. Once I repeated those statements at the G8, those opposing that proposal had shifted into high gear. While I was writing my memo to the President, four Republican Senators--Chuck Hagel of Nebraska, Jesse Helms of North Carolina, Larry Craig of Idaho and Pat Roberts of Kansas--were writing a letter of their own to him, expressing their strong opposition to his campaign promise.

It almost never works. But in this case it might have. By offering up the dessert of giving everyone a mutual fund holder, he tacitly undermined his own efforts to make the case that there's a crisis. How can you deploy...

The thrust of Alexander's argument is that because Federer's shotmaking from the baseline is so preposterously good, he can be a little lazy about advancing to the net for the quick kill...
Since the original complaints were publicized, TSA has responded to public pressure, restricting invasive chest pat-downs to cases where handheld detectors are set off. But oversight measures should be improved so that TSA knows about the problem before Jay Leno mocks it on the Tonight Show. And there are still issues to be addressed: hiring enough female guards so that requests for same-sex screeners can be fulfilled, and making the procedures more transparent to keep passengers informed...
