...Harvard, the biochemistry concentrator and Mather House resident, originally from Pittsburgh, was involved in several performing arts groups, including Gunghroo and the Kuumba Singers. She also volunteered through the Phillips Brooks House Association and taught children in Costa Rica one summer...
...impress. Ronaldinho and Emerson cannot guarantee ball possession, and Roberto Carlos treats his left back position as a forwarding address. Then again, this is Brazil we're talking about, and the team is in one of the Cup's weakest groups. Its opponents?Turkey, China and Costa Rica?pose little danger.

The Yanks aren't going anywhere. The team can claim only one great field player in Sunderland...
...Musgrove and his Medicaid executive director Rica Lewis-Payton don't think Moody and his colleagues have turned over enough rocks yet. Lewis-Payton has started to prepare the public for what those cuts will mean come July 1st - when the budget takes effect - by pre-announcing cutbacks in services. The slimmed-down Medicaid will not cover adults' eyeglasses, for example, or their dental care, wheelchairs or dialysis. Even more ominously, 13,000 nursing home residents will lose their coverage...
