...little more mettle to our team...the game is not over just because you’re down two. I was very pleased to get that goal in the last minute or so of the half.” The Huskies controlled the ball the majority of the second stanza, launching three straight shots six minutes into the period. All were handled by Mann and the Crimson defense, but their success would be short-lived. Busque’s efforts at 68:01 turned a two-man trap in the right corner into a third UConn goal when she found...
...even earlier. Long ago, thinkers highly valued verbal persuasion and deemed it a central facet of education. The field of rhetoric changed and developed during Roman rule and onward, until Harvard itself established the Boylston Professorship of Rhetoric and Oratory in 1806. It was Francis J.

...Second, the article by Hatoyama that caused so much fuss - initially published in The Voice, a Tokyo monthly, and (in shorter version) on the website of The New York Times and International Herald Tribune - does not read like some little op-ed casually dashed off by a summer intern. It is a thoughtful, sophisticated, and quite radical analysis of how globalization and the financial crisis have changed the landscape in which Japan and the U.S. find themselves...
