...pitching from each of its two starters, but couldn’t get things going at the plate as Dartmouth swept a doubleheader in Hanover on Saturday afternoon 3-0, 3-2, to close out Ivy League play for both clubs. Big Green pitching held the Crimson scoreless for thirteen consecutive innings to start the afternoon. Harvard (20-23, 6-8 Ivy) managed only seven hits on the day, while Dartmouth (14-22, 7-7 Ivy) banged out fourteen. During the month of April, the Crimson has struggled to put runs on the board.

A member of the equally militant Islamic Jihad, who called himself Abu Aziz, told Time his cadres will continue firing homemade Qassam rockets into Israel, even though the Israeli military responds to the few they shoot each day with hundreds of artillery shells. Thirteen militants were killed by Israeli artillery and air strikes in Gaza two weekends ago, but so were four civilians, one an 8-year-old girl. For now, Hamas leaders, facing dwindling post-election optimism, can be glad that popular frustration is pointed at Israel, the U.S. and Europe. More flexibility...
