Harvard appeared to have the win in the bag, but came up short after an RPI effort to tie the game in the last 18 seconds.“We are struggling to find our identity, and it’s something we have to figure out in a hurry,” said Harvard assistant coach Joakim Flygh...
...World Toilet Summit and Expo is like the Star Trek Convention of the waste management and sanitation world. Toilets on show run the gamut from a cardboard box complete with a hole, plastic bag and pouch of waterless magic pathogen-busting dust ($50), to a high-tech 'uber-toilet,' featuring an in-seat warmer/cooler, male and female water jets, an in-bowl light (why, oh why?) and a USB port so you can connect your mp3 player for your soothing tune of choice...
