...closer to a civil war in Lebanon than we were last week. But I think a couple of things have to happen before the Lebanese start filling sandbags. One likely trigger could be Lebanon's going ahead with an international tribunal to try the suspects accused of assassinating former Prime Minister Rafiq Hariri in 2005. Neither Syria nor Hizballah will stand for a tribunal, believing it would be little more than a U.S. and French show trial intended to isolate them.

...this year, but the squad must improve their defense. Yale’s opponents shot 43.2 percent from the field and scored 13 more points per game than the Bulldogs. An experienced frontcourt is a plus, but Yale is still a few years away.Player to Watch: Jamie Van HornThe trigger-happy Van Horne is one of the best outside shooters in the Ivies.

Deep stuff for the guy who punk'd Justin Timberlake...
It’s punch season again, and this year it’s really getting to us. We are sick of seeing sophomores dressed to impress at 7 p.m., only to return at 2 a.m tearing each other’s clothes off and pulling the trigger in the stairwells. Honestly, since when is social standing based on how much you can drink? It saddens us that many underclassmen, whom we had previously respected, are buying into this insanely sexist system. These all-female clubs are out of control; we speak for all men on campus when...
