...assists. “We had a couple [of] defensive breakdowns and unlucky bounces,” Hoyle said. “I personally made a mistake I shouldn’t have made by allowing them to score two goals so close to each other.” Prior to the Bobcats’ offensive onslaught late in the third period, Harvard kept toe-to-toe with Quinnipiac by responding with a goal of its own whenever falling behind. Back-and-forth play characterized much of the first period, and it wasn’t until Beaudoin scored...
...Quinnipiac’s assault following the previous four penalties, the mounting errors eventually took their toll. “Ultimately what matters is that we came out with the W,” Martin said. Quinnipiac also refocused its attack in the third, outshooting Harvard 16-14. Prior to the third, however, the Bobcats’ offensive efforts lacked the zeal mustered in the final period.

They, too, argued that drawn-downs were artificially inflating overall lending figures. Yes, there was lending, but it was involuntary, and often to struggling companies - like GM and Tribune - that banks might not otherwise give money to. "If credit lines get drawn down by the most vulnerable individuals and companies...
...past years, the Freecycle network's busiest days have not been the ones prior to Christmas but those immediately afterward, as members have rushed to give away or exchange all the unwanted gifts they received. This year, though, Beal wonders if that pattern might be broken. "In hard times, we tend to be a little more thoughtful in our giving, and I think that will carry over to receiving too," he says. "Personally, I would love to think that this decrease in spending before Christmas leads to less excess waste that we need to get rid of afterward. It would...
