...Unicorn ("With the white unicorn across her shoulder/ Makes you think that she might have been someone who's older") that are no less fun for being totally incomprehensible. What raises their unironic embrace of classic-rock cliché above the bar of mere cuteness is frantic musicianship and the crisp wail of singer Andrew Stockdale...
...results are surprising. I haven't been crazy about Kodak cameras' picture quality of late, but the 6-megapixel V610 took some terrific pictures. Outdoors at full zoom, shots were crisp and clear. Indoors, where Kodak's compact cameras tend to have more trouble, shots came out clean, without the blurring or graininess that sometimes occurs.

HARVARD 1, BROWN 0The most striking evidence of supernatural intervention came on the final play of the Crimson’s narrow victory in the crisp opener. With Harvard clinging to the slimmest of leads and runners on the corners with two outs, speedy Brown center fielder Steve Daniels chopped a high ground ball up the middle. The ball ricocheted off the glove of pitcher Shawn Haviland and fortuitously bounced over to Stoeckel, a late-game defensive replacement...
