...show moved quickly. While I had to stand on my toes to figure out where each tier of M83’s music gave way to the next, the experience consumed me. New songs blended with old, but it was all distinctly Gonzalez. From his crisp touch on a cheap keyboard to his orchestrated distorted bassline, the mastermind held control...
Like any high church, West Point relishes pomp. On crisp autumn Saturdays, tourists flock to the vast greensward known as the Plain to watch the corps of cadets parade by in their gray swallowtail coats adorned with gold braid. The essential West Point, however, is never on public display. It is hidden behind stone battlements, in bleak inner courtyards of black asphalt. In these forbidding surroundings, the rite of passage into the Long Gray Line begins every July with a seven-week ordeal that is officially labeled Cadet Basic Training but is better known as Beast Barracks. Plebes are weaned...
...Paul Kovi's Transylvanian Cuisine (Crown; $15.95). And, in fact, there is a recipe for stuffed bear's foot and another for brain sausages.

Meanwhile, Edberg sketched the position of the dim light and compared his drawing with the magnified view of the object provided by his binoculars. Sure enough, there it was. The two men had made the first unaided sighting of Halley...
...Crimson’s No. 1 and No. 3 doubles pairs had a harder time finishing off their opponents. At one point, both matches were tied 5-5, but the No. 1 duo of co-captain Courtney Bergman and sophomore Elsa O’Riain made several crisp winners en route to an 8-6 win, clinching the doubles point. At the third spot, junior Melissa Anderson and freshman Stephanie Schnitter dug themselves out of a 7-5 hole to triumph...
