...doubles teams let the Crimson down with slow starts and even worse finishes. Sean Monk and Shri Sudhakar of the Hurricane defeated the No.1 team of Green and Styperek 8-4, and Steve Timperley paired up with Juan Bertoldi to defeat Lee and Lingman 8-4. The only bright spot was Rich and Barker's come-from-behind victory over the team of Mike Nammar and Micah Zomer...
...past 40 years we have lived as a refugee community. That is very sad. I always notice that people who come from Tibet, despite all the suffering, have cheeks that are bright red. But although we Tibetans in India have complete freedom, our faces are yellow. We miss our climate. But spiritually and mentally, we are very happy. We have been successful in showing the truth of the Tibetan cause to everyone, including many Chinese intellectuals, thinkers and writers.

This Saturday was the story of the unglamorous side of the American music dream...
...potential of a "crossover"--an unlikely bridge over the oh-so-wide gap between the flannel wearers and the Polo-loyal, between DHAs and Banana Republic. The trendiness began when she saw a member of the Harvard Snowboarding Club sauntering down Mt. Auburn Street with a bright yellow (gold? orange? it's an indescribable hybrid) t-shirt punctuated with red and blue lettering. She bought one off him on the spot (luckily, he had a few for sale; she would have given up her first-born for it, I'm sure). The buzz started building. Next...
