...signs of bloodletting reveal themselves by day. Some of Few's men recently came upon a station wagon riddled with bullets. Inside were the bodies of a man, a woman and a young child--all murdered. While searching for gunmen in a house a short distance away, the soldiers came across a white burlap sack hung on a door; it contained a human head. There was no sign of the victim's body, which may very well have joined other decapitated corpses periodically seen floating down the Diyala River...

Written for Neil Armfield's hallowed Company B, Ruben Guthrie follows the life of a young TV scriptwriter as he enters Alcoholics Anonymous, and was penned during Cowell's 11 months back on the wagon.

Skaggs blinked. Occupied by his own overheated thoughts, he had hardly registered the presence of the city, let alone its people. He saw now that he was in the crowd huddling along Broadway, waiting for a landau and a city wagon to pass.

...January he lifted the veil somewhat, releasing a video of the first test flight last November--a cozy affair on his ranch, with a Jumbotron for the spectators, a bouncy castle for the kids and a chuck wagon. The scaled-down prototype flew up 285 ft.--and 30 sec. later landed successfully. "My only job at the launch was to open the champagne, and I broke the cork off in the bottle," he blogged later. (You can almost hear that mad-scientist laugh of his.) "Fortunately, our other valve operations went more smoothly...

...Cahill roofed a rebound off of Richter’s right pad on the power play. Then, five minutes later, Mark Arcobello picked up the puck after a faceoff and found the top of the net. Less than two minutes later, when the wheels officially fell off the Harvard wagon, the Bulldogs managed another man-advantage strike for a 3-1 lead. Will Engasser skated past defenders in the left circle and snuck the puck high between Richter and the left post. A timeout called by Donato did little to settle the Crimson, as Jean-Francois Boucher took the puck...
