...Fish said, “but [Michigan] was whole different level of team. It has doubles that can stick with anyone in the country.”The Wolverines swept the doubles matches to pick up their first point with relative ease, forcing Harvard into the challenging bind of having to win four of six singles matches.At first, the Crimson looked determined to pull off the upset, winning their first sets at No. 1, 2, 4, and 5.Harvard’s 93rd-ranked sophomore Chris Clayton, playing at No. 1, continued his strong play, beating his opponent...

These waves are not like the useless hum from a noisy appliance but may allow consciousness to do its job in the brain. They may bind the activity in far-flung regions (one for color, another for shape, a third for motion) into a coherent conscious experience, a bit like radio transmitters and receivers tuned to the same frequency.

Orthodoxy, on the other hand, regards homosexuality as deviant, and gay Orthodox Jews are as closeted as they are in, say, the Southern Baptist Convention. Until today Conservatism followed Orthodoxy?s legal lead, based in part on the biblical injunction that ?You shall not lie with a man as with a woman.?
