...frustrating that we aren’t capitalizing.” Harvard coach Sue Caples said her team has “just got to keep shooting because those will start to fall.” The Crimson has been working on drills to be more effective in the box. It will look to use the long ball frequently and defensively, and to deny key players the ball. One such key player that Harvard must focus on is Schmidt, and attacker who leads the Ivies in goals scored (eight), shots (54), shots per game (3.86), and points (21). Schmidt...
...prolific one. Born in 1914, he published only one novel, Invisible Man, before his death in 1994. Flying Home represents a welcome addition to his oeuvre.

This is down from 4% to 5% in the 1960s, when foreign-language films were the intellectual rage du jour and an inspiration for smart Hollywood directors.

...fest “Old School” is decent, but the sunny beat feels more appropriate to a Kweli album and the prominent hook feels sorely out of place on a Doom album. Atlanta legend Cee-Lo, who lends his Southern-fried crooning to “Benzi Box,” has stolen tracks from the likes of Jay-Z and Outkast with his ridiculous flow, and his rapping skills are sorely missed here...
