...Zuma's victory may be less a result of his own appeal as a candidate than it is is testament to the ire that President Thabo Mbeki arouses among the ANC rank and file. Discipline, once a hallmark of the organization in its days as an underground guerrilla movement, was in scant evidence at a conference whose delegates appeared to be in a state of open revolt, booing and whistling at Mbeki during his opening speech, drowning out Mbeki allies by singing songs in support of Zuma, and delaying the leadership vote for two days in arguments over procedure. Mbeki...

...snatched seven on the glass in just eight minutes of play. If the Harvard women can step up the defensive work and immobilize key opponent shooters, Harvard’s strong offense should be able to carry the wins home. The Crimson’s top three shooters all rank in the top 10 in league scoring.

...Bright Hockey Center in December 2005, and the Wildcats ran away from an inexperienced Harvard squad in the third period of a 5-1 victory in Durham the following month. The two New England foes returned to the Whittemore Center when No. 8 Harvard drew top-ranked UNH in the first round of the NCAA Tournament. The Wildcats overmatched the Crimson—minus its three Olympians—in a 3-1 triumph. Last year, then-No. 4 Harvard squandered a 3-1 third-period lead to then-No. 3 UNH in a 3-3 tie at Bright Hockey...

...candidates. The Rev. Pat Robertson went for Giuliani; the National Right to Life Committee came out for Thompson; Bob Jones III and Paul Weyrich endorsed Romney. Few believed that Huckabee, the ordained Southern Baptist who actually seemed to be one of them, could win. And then, lo and behold, rank-and-file Evangelicals went off and lined up in unexpected numbers for the former Arkansas Governor.
