...about Asano’s efforts in her first year as head coach of the Dutchwomen. Friday’s contest was also special for the Crimson in that the team donned pink-colored jerseys as part of Pink at the Rink, an ECAC Hockey effort to support Coaches vs. Cancer and the American Cancer Society. “[Claudia] coached me here for three years and was a player at Harvard on the national championship team of ’99,” Cahow said. “Her mother passed away of breast cancer a few years...
There's no event so passionate in English soccer as a derby fixture - Liverpool vs. Everton, say, or Arsenal vs. Tottenham - where the intense local rivalry is felt for miles around the ground, and the pride on the pitch makes for snappier tackles and that extra ounce of effort as fans steeped in decades of local rivalry spur their team forward. But would those games offer quite the same spectacle if they were played in Beijing or New York? The hundreds of millions of fans who tune in to TV broadcasts of the English Premier League each week may soon...
...elected - although, given Clinton's undeserved reputation as a partisan operative, that may be a tougher sell for her than for Obama. But this is not a struggle for the ideological soul of the party. It may, however, be a struggle for the party's demographic soul - older voters vs. younger, information-age workers vs. industrial and service workers, wine vs. beer.

...damaging internecine fight ahead, one that could doom the party's hopes of holding on to the White House. But Democrats can't count on a conservative crackup. It may be tempting to view the Republican race as a battle for the party's conservative identity, pitting antiabortion vs. antiterrorism vs. antitax, Huckabee the evangelical pastor vs. McCain the war hero vs. Romney the venture capitalist. But Super Tuesday's exit polls suggest that McCain did best among Republicans who care most about the economy, while Romney scored best on immigration. Many conservative leaders will never trust McCain, partly because...
Locavores vs. Distavores I'm sorry that the local-food movement is cramping Joel Stein's style [Jan. 21]. But just because 100 miles (160 km) has been used as an arbitrary procurement distance for p.r. purposes doesn't mean that all people who try to eat locally walk around the supermarket with a GPS unit. I still enjoy bananas and coffee, and I have no problem drinking beer that comes from - gasp! - California. But for me and many others, the point of eating locally is to become more familiar with our food. It's nice to hear a farmer...
