...Division I-AA.It speaks to how impressive the Bulldogs have been to this point that this game, arguably the biggest test on their schedule, seems so non-threatening. Quakers tailback Joe Sandberg is the second-best runner in the conference, and the stout Penn defense, anchored by linebacker Joe Anastasio, allows a league-low 2.4 yards per carry. Yale has been averaging 5.8.Prediction: Yale 28, Penn 21CORNELL (3-2, 0-2) VS. BROWN (2-3, 1-1)This intriguing matchup pits the two most active throwers in the league against each other.

...senior officials have all given testimony since Jan. 19 about the importance of security at Los Alamos, offering assurances that improvements would be made at the leaky lab. Referring to the reams of classified Los Alamos documents found in the New Mexico trailer park last year, Lab director Michael Anastasio told lawmakers, "My board finds [this incident] totally unacceptable...

After he and Sandinista guerrillas toppled Nicaragua's brutal dictator, Anastasio Somoza Debayle, in 1979, Ortega led an authoritarian, Soviet-backed regime that wrecked the economy and fought a civil war with U.S.-backed contra rebels that killed some 50,000 people. Ortega was finally ousted in a 1990 election, and for the past 16 years, during which he twice failed to recapture the presidency, he seemed little more than a relic...
