Greenwich water polo team amid another solid season
The 2008 Greenwich High School water polo team is midway through another outstanding season.
At least that appears to be the case after the Cardinals won the Beast of the East tournament in West Lawn, Pa., last weekend to raise their record to a perfect 17-0. That’s exactly halfway to last year’s win total, when GHS went 34-3 and won the Eastern Interscholastic championship.
Tigers tame the water in Hartford with stellar showing
The Sacred Heart crew team has plenty to be thrilled about after its performance at the Head of the Riverfront Regatta, which was held this past weekend upstate in Hartford.

I have done some calculations of what would have happened to four sample portfolios invested at the beginning of January 1999 and left unchanged until the end of last month. I don’t claim such a period is typical, only that it happens to be the most recent decade
