MIT Prof Dismisses Global Warming in Darmouth Speech

By By U Wire • January 9, 2002

HANOVER, N.H.?Massachusetts Institute of Technology Professor Richard Lindzen's dismissal of carbon dioxide emissions as the source of global warming met with mixed reactions from a crowd last Friday at Darmouth College's Thayer School of Engineering.

Raiders Will Make Way Through AFC

January 9, 2002

My, how things have turned around in the AFC for two of last year's Playoff rejects.

That will never stop me from picking against Kordell "I will never take my team to the Super Bowl" Stewart and, of course, the New England Patriots led by Tom Brady.
