...five spots. Harvard’s second-place effort was led by sophomore Claire Richardson, whose 17:52.62-time placed her sixth. Classmate Jamie Olson took the next spot at 18:04.97. The win for the nationally ranked No. 7 Tigers was their sixth consecutive capture of the Cheever Memorial Trophy. The win for Princeton ties the Crimson’s 1980-’85 consecutive win streak. “At this point in the game, Princeton’s a really strong team,” women’s captain Kelsey LeBuffe said...
Unlike the typical '60s reminiscence, Mad Men doesn't have a baby-boomer perspective. (Creator Matthew Weiner, 42, was born after the boomer cutoff.)

This latter category of photographs seems trite: the objects are robbed of their aesthetic autonomy as Davey manipulates them for some “unambiguously productive” purpose. People are rarely the subject of Davey’s pieces, with the occasional exception of hands...
...trunkful of classic pop - Rodgers and Hart's"Manhattan," Dietz and Schwartz' "Dancing in the Dark," Cole Porter's "Ev'ry Time We Say Goodbye" - I found a few surprises: the 1952 "Guess Who I Saw Today," a quietly devastating ballad of Cheever-like yearning and betrayal, and "Pack Up Your Sins," a Berlin number that was new to me, and wittier than the songs of his I know from this period (1922).
