...ending the season on a four-game skid against Columbia, Cornell, Brown, and Yale. The final loss against Yale closed out an 8-22 overall and 3-11 league season for Harvard, leaving the Crimson in a three-way tie in the Ivy cellar with Princeton and Dartmouth. While there were only a handful of bright spots on the team level, individual improvements on the roster highlighted an otherwise lackluster season. Sophomore guard Jeremy Lin, who was named the team MVP, finished with a squad-best 12.6 points per game, led the team in assists and was third in rebounding...

Max Friedrich, head of Vienna's University Clinic for Pediatric and Adolescent Psychiatry, treated Natascha Kampusch, an Austrian who was held hostage from 1998 to 2006 in a kidnapper's cellar. He says the greatest challenge for the Fritzls will be adjusting mentally to their new reality. Kampusch, now 20, spent a month in a Vienna hospital and a further five months in an assisted-living facility before she was able to begin with formal schooling. But she had experienced at least some direct contact...
