...tied the game when sophomore Katherine Sheeleigh found the net in the 73rd minute. Sheeleigh received a long ball from freshman Melanie Baskind and then blasted a right-footed shot into the lower corner. Sheeleigh and Baskind are tied for the team lead with six goals each. They both rank in the top 10 in the Ivy League in points and goals. For the rest of the game and the two overtime periods, neither team could muster the go-ahead goal. “We were just off a bit on our final ball and our services...
...Biega says. “I think this year I just have to keep doing the same thing, working hard, and hopefully the puck goes my way.” The puck certainly went his way last year, as Biega’s nine goals were enough to rank him fourth on the team in scoring and third among Ivy League freshmen in conference games. Biega often found himself in scoring situations on Harvard’s power-play lines—he notched five goals on special teams. But some of Biega’s biggest plays have...
...success in using new technologies to harness the netroots, to use the fashionable liberal argot. But there has been less reflection about what impact the great gobs of Sorosian money will have on the movement.

...politicians, who were quick to note that even the mayor of Chicago, a city three times the size of Detroit, only required 15 bodyguards. He routinely donned a diamond-studded earring and wore flashy suits, even as the city's budget crisis deepened and its population dwindled - threatening its rank as the nation's 11th-largest city. In 2005, a local TV reporter revealed that Kilpatrick had leased a $25,000 Lincoln Navigator for his wife, Carlita, with whom he has three sons, through the city's police department. He also charged more than $200,000 worth of spa treatments...

After an increase in gang activity, the board of county supervisors took the controversial step of checking the immigration status of every person arrested, irrespective of guilt or the degree of crime, from jaywalking to felonies. If a detainee is found to be illegal, the county immediately initiates deportation procedures with Immigration and Customs Enforcement. The move, by the largely conservative Republican board, drew national attention and placed the local party at odds with its presidential nominee, who helped write the failed 2006 immigration bill...
