Amid all the uncertainty, one thing is more sure: senior tailback Clifton Dawson. Dawson stands on the brink of history, with the chance to become to first offensive player in league history to be named first-team all-Ivy for four straight years. He is on pace to break the all-time league mark for rushing yards—with 4,715 yards, he is 1,087 yards off the mark—and touchdowns, established by Brown’s Nick Hartigan last season. If Dawson gets 1,000 yards on the ground, he will become just the eighth...
...more adult for "getting" Lenny. I just thought the guy was funny. Similarly, I found the breadth and pungency of his stuff startling but not really shocking.

His Web site, Internet Haganah - the name is an homage to Israeli paramilitary fighters - tracks Hizballah and other groups as they wander the Web. Weisburd's hijack logs go back for several years and include the latest Hizballah hijacks since fighting began. "Notice to the jihadis in the audience," he writes on his site. "You can't hide...
...Yoshua knows what awaits him in Lebanon. When his 82nd Battalion crossed the border a few days back, every imaginable threat seemed to pop up in front of him. Three of the four tanks in his unit encountered landmines, missile fire and snipers. Yoshua's best friend, a guitar player, was in one of the tanks hit by a missile and lost both his legs. Three others were killed. "It's not like fighting Palestinians in Gaza," explains Sgt. Yoshua, a gaunt, bearded young soldier. "Hizballah has better weapons. They're highly organized and - I don't know...
