...Harvard fencing teams further established themselves as dynasties on the collegiate fencing scene this weekend in Philadelphia. Two weeks after capturing the Ivy League crown, the men took home the 112th Intercollegiate Fencing Association (IFA) championship on Saturday. The women followed suit yesterday, winning the three-weapon crown in a dominant fashion. Additionally, Harvard took home the six-weapon title for having the best men and women’s teams combined. The Crimson men began the meet by totaling 71 wins, good enough for 156 points. The closest opponent was Penn, which finished with 125 points. Columbia, Princeton...
Smiling broadly and looking dapper in a powder blue shirt, pin-striped suit and bright red tie, Renault ceo Carlos Ghosn doesn't look like your typical corporate hatchet man. Back in 1999, however, Ghosn was dubbed the "samurai" and "cost killer" at Nissan Motor in Japan. As the newly appointed president, he began closing plants, slashing over $20 billion in debt, and eliminating over 20,000 jobs to turn the moribund company profitable. Many observers - especially unions - expected similar tough love in early February, when Ghosn unveiled his ambitious four-year business plan for Renault, which...

...wrapping his tefillin like a boxer taping up his gloves before a title fight. Don’t forget it kids: he’s the Jewish reggae rapper. He bum-rushes the stage, rocks the appropriately youthful and attractive crowd, and prances around in an Adidas track suit. All of this takes place in the warmest, coziest ghetto you’ve ever seen. Our hero and his gaggle of troubled, but not too troubled, teens get empowered and mimic the “black power” salute. The song’s lyrics, so deep that they?...
...favored veterans over high-scoring youth such as Crosby and Eric Staal. Prototype NHL power forward Todd Bertuzzi, who'd hoped to redeem himself at this tournament for breaking the neck of Colorado forward Steve Moore in 2004, hardly seemed a factor. Moore filed a multi-million dollar civil suit against Bertuzzi at the onset of the tournament. And Quinn lacked faith in the younger players he did carry, notably remarking how Columbus forward Rick Nash seemed "in awe" of the situation. "Nobody could make me feel worse than I feel right now," Quinn said, referring to the anticipated criticism...
