Men hope race will be closer than last year’s

By Chris Engel · Friday, April 20,2007 12 a.m.

Positive press

By Ayesha Awan · Friday, April 20,2007 12 a.m.

People seem to have a sick fascination with things that are morbid. The consequences of this fascination rarely affect me. At worst, my four-hour drive to Chicago will become a 4 1/2-hour drive because everyone wants to slow down to gawk at a car wreck on the side of the road.

Stupid is as stupid does

By Alyson Brodsy · Friday, April 20,2007 12 a.m.

As the year comes to an end, the stress of final exams, finding summer employment or ending an ill-fated relationship can easily push a student over the edge. Sometimes a night on the town with friends, or 57 straight hours of sleep is all you really need to work through the life’s trials and tribulations.

Path not worth finding

By Brian Hettmansperger and Tom Murphy · Thursday, April 19,2007 12 a.m.

Take "Dances with Wolves," remove any discernible plot and the brilliant acting and you have "Pathfinder." "Pathfinder" opens with an American Indian woman finding a young boy on a wrecked Viking ship. The Vikings had destroyed most of the woman's village but they decided to take the boy in and raise him as their own. Fifteen years later, the Vikings return to cleanse the American shore of the "savages" before they settle it.
