...over Connecticut College in its first game of Northerns, the Crimson secured its place at the Eastern Championships. “We focused a lot on training after Robbie got injured,” Offsay said. “We knew we couldn’t just tuck our tail between our legs and give...
...this discussion is, Is outsourcing bad for America? Is globalization good or bad for America?" Baumol, along with his fellow panelists on TIME's Board of Economists--RON HIRA of the Rochester Institute of Technology, CATHERINE MANN of the Institute for International Economics and MATTHEW SLAUGHTER of the Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth--proceeded to delve into that hotly contested question.

...liberate" a society that obviously functions better under a murderous dictator. The Iraqis are merely waiting to see who comes out on top. They do not deserve to have U.S. soldiers fighting for them. The Iraqi men who were trained to protect and defend their people tuck tail and run. Not one American life is worth the so-called liberation of Iraq. If the Iraqis don't want to defend their country, why should we? How can you win the hearts and minds of the heartless and mindless?
