...ultimately resolved a classic pitcher’s duel between Madick and Pride ace Kayleigh Lotti in the home team’s favor. “I knew they were a good hitting team,” Madick said. “If you miss a pitch here and there, they’re going to put it out.”Both award-winning hurlers went the distance. Madick, the Ivy League Pitcher of the Year, endured a hard line drive that drilled her left leg in the fourth to last 8 1/3 innings, allowing seven hits...

...graphic of Earth in a stunning view very few people have ever seen firsthand. Air sickness bags are conspicuously absent. Unlike an astronaut-training simulator or other virtual reality systems which allow multiple degrees of stomach-turning motion - forward and backward, up and down, side to side, pitch, roll and yaw - this simulator only allows for pitch. But in clever combination with a powerful Buttkicker audio system, which lets riders feel sound, strong vibrations, timed seat compressions and video cues, the rider is tricked into feeling acceleration, G-forces and weightlessness...

...populists, Tom Tancredo and Duncan Hunter, seem obscure and insubstantial, a classic problem for House members running for President; neither is as compelling as Pat Buchanan, who has played this role in the past. I've been surprised by how ineffective Tancredo has been in making his anti-immigrant pitch, which should have some resonance in the Republican Party. Former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee seems to be winning the battle of the religious conservatives against Kansas Senator Sam Brownback. Huckabee is colorful and funny. In the second debate, he drew whoops from the audience when he said the (Republican) Congress...

...Yard may have been one human gestation cycle wasted. Had we had access to amniocentesis for our column, we would have had aborted it faster than DA’s parents chose him over the less developed fetus he shared a liver, kidneys, and large intestine with.
