Before this weekend, the last time Penn captain Henry Chen and the Quakers won an Ivy League contest was on Sept. 13, 1997. Chen was a freshman defender making his collegiate debut, and he could not have imagined a more perfect scenario than shutting out Harvard...
...Submarine submerges, dives deep into those secret spots behind your consciousness that only glow with the lights out. In their debut album Skin Diving, south London trio Al Boyd, Richard Jeffrey and Adaesi Ukairo have oozed out a unique and seductive blend of electronic pulse.

Mumba's music is ear candy: it crunches, it bubbles, it melts in the mouth. Her vernal personality (she co-wrote seven of the 12 songs) is what gives her CD lasting flavor...
