...Crimson put forth an offensive display not seen from Harvard basketball since the 20th century last night, running over Sacred Heart (1-11, 0-3 Northeast), 97-84, in its final non-league game of the 2004-2005 season. It’s been nearly seven years since the Crimson (6-9, 1-1 Ivy) posted at least 97 points in a game, when Harvard pasted Brown 111-63 in the final game of the 1997-98 season...

The Bavarian Purity Law of 1516 gets a display, as does a 4,000-year-old Sumerian hymn to Ninkasi, the goddess of brewing.

...first you have to learn how. A display explains the proper procedure for tasting beer: look, swirl, sniff and sip.
