...over—a disappointing end to a disappointing season. Facing league foe New Jersey Tech (NJIT) on Senior Day, the Harvard men’s volleyball team failed to contain the Highlanders’ potent offense, losing 3-0 (30-21, 30-24, 30-22) Saturday afternoon at the Malkin Athletic Center. After capturing the Sweeney Division title last year, the Crimson came into 2006 favored to win the newly transformed Hay Division. But an injury-plagued start and a poor finish put Harvard out of contention. Nothing characterized the Crimson’s fall from grace more than...

...Bush encounter is prime-time world politics. It is a meeting between the No. 1 and the would-be No. 2. While smiling into the cameras, Bush and Hu will continue to play for the highest stakes: a global order for our century that will both contain and accommodate the restless Chinese giant. Bush will have read the intelligence assessments of China's soaring defense outlays; from the newspapers, he already knows that the U.S. trade deficit with China has shot up to $200 billion. Hu will arrive well briefed on the subtle strategic game the U.S. is playing against...
