...left skate. Facing a 4-0 deficit, the Crimson at least prevented a shutout when sophomore Chris Huxley scored at 5:05, assisted by sophomores Michael Biega and Michael Del Mauro. Biega’s smooth pass from the right side set up Huxley for a crisp shot that directed the puck into the right-hand corner of the net. The brief interruption did not deter the Fighting Sioux from routing Harvard. UND’s David Toews scored at 9:39, and 10 minutes later, with the Crimson a man down, Watkins followed with his second goal...

...humanly possible. We started with a plate of clean, raw oysters at Dickie Brennan's Bourbon House (144 Bourbon Street; 504-522-0111). Then my man discovered that you could also get oysters with caviar on top, so we ordered a half-dozen of those too, paired with a crisp, cold glass of pinot grigio. I've never enjoyed a meal more.

...Within the genre, the man is a legend. As a member of much-beloved A Tribe Called Quest, Q-Tip contributed to albums like “The Low End Theory” and “Midnight Marauders”—full of loping bass lines, crisp percussion, clever rhymes, and a whole lot of good vibes.
