oThe Phillies’ wild, 6-5 victory over the Marlins Friday had an interesting wrinkle in that both teams had at least one hit in all nine of their offensive halves of innings.

According to Elias Sports Bureau, the last time both teams had a hit in every inning of a game was Aug.

for the Mariners?

Pat Gillick.

Eventually, the taunts, threats, and insults proved too much, and he killed himself.

This is just one of the many cases where so-called cyber-bullying has led to a death.

If a student's right to "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness" is being so obviously violated, is it legally, or ethically, correct to just stand by and watch?

If a student is caught with drugs outside of school, not only would he or she serve some sort of jail time or other punishment, but the school would probably suspend or even expel the student.

Of course, a big question remains: It isn't the school's business what a student does on the Internet, is it?

Well, that is almost like saying it isn't the legal system's business if you commit a crime.
