...GRAY OCTOBER DAY in Le Marche, the region of central Italy where about 90% of the country's shoes are made in nonescript industrial factories that dot the velvety, verdant landscape. The iffy weather and impending rain don't bother Diego Della Valle, 52. As the president and CEO of Tod's S.p.A., he's used to climbing into his silver twin-engine Dolphin helicopter after lunch at Villa Brancadoro?his 17th century hilltop residence in the town of Casette d'Ete, where he lives with his wife Barbara Pistilli and their son Filippo, 8?and zipping over to Ancona...
...weather makes Diego's younger brother Andrea Della Valle, 40, vice president of Tod's S.p.A., very nervous. Even after the elicottero has floated up several hundred feet and the 100-acre estate below?tennis court, boccie court, soccer field, man-made lake, lemon and olive groves and church included?has receded into the distance and there's not much left to view except gray fluff, Andrea keeps a watchful eye out the window.

The opening regatta of the New England Intercollegiate Sailing Association...
...captain Michele McAteer said. That may be an understatement for a team that will open its season on Mar. 4 in Plant City, Florida, and will not see the friendly confines of Soldiers Field until an Apr. 4 date with Boston College, 19 games later. The hazards of northeastern weather, coupled with more money for travel opportunities, have given the Crimson softball team the chance to attend three different tournaments over the course of March. Last season, the team lost a significant portion of its non-conference games when a tournament at Fordham was cancelled due to weather. All told...
...Harvard softball team may seem to have a lot working against it—the departure of three non-seniors, the harsh New England weather, and a schedule that includes only five homestands, only two of which are Ivy contests. But Crimson coach Jenny Allard isn’t worried. Her advice?“Deal with it—make it a non-issue.” The departed players added significant depth to the Harvard bench last season. One of last year’s captains, Kerry Flaherty, had been sidelined due to illness...
