Four Harvard starters--Kalil, Dick, freshman midfielder Kalen Ingram and junior midfielder Liz Sarles--scored two goals apiece, while Kalil and Ingram each added a pair of assists to pace the Crimson on the brand-new synthetic turf at Jordan...
...remarkable experiment performed in 1962 by Canadian psychologist Brenda Milner proved that H.M. can form new memories of a very specific sort. For many days running, she asked him to trace a design while looking in a mirror. As far as H.M. knew, the task was a brand-new one each time he confronted it. Yet as the days wore on, his performance improved.

I'd thought it would be fun and instructive if my friend Karyn and I drove to Dartmouth with no paper maps, only digital ones. I'd picked Map 'n' Go over the competition because...
