...meet format. “Before every session starts, we have to remind ourselves that this is no different than any other dual meet.”Papadakis was the lone first-place finisher for the Crimson, taking both the three-meter and one-meter events in the dive portion of the competition. In Saturday’s three-meter dive, the senior scored 301.50 points to lead a Harvard effort that was also helped by fourth and fifth-places from freshmen Jennifer Reese and Anne Taylor. On Sunday, Papadakis, who is also a former Crimson sports writer, bested Princeton?...
...Harvard women’s swimming and diving team honored its senior class in fine form on Saturday in a dominant 196-98 win against Brown on senior day. The meet—the Crimson’s only home event of the season—opened with a ceremony in honor of the team’s eight senior athletes who led Harvard (5-0, 5-0 Ivy League) to its fifth straight dual-meet victory. “I didn’t think it was going to be as emotional as it was,” senior...
...just the opportunity to charge a lot for ground beef that appeals to chefs. A year before Boulud's burger, executive chef Sang Yoon, then 29, ditched his job at Michael's in Santa Monica, Calif., to take over a nearby tiny dive bar called Father's Office and cook burgers.

...rather than dive quickly into promising markets, eHarmony has remained devoted--some would say slavishly--to its research-based model. In China, that means commissioning researchers at Beijing University to find out whether its model--in which 29 "dimensions" such as humor and spirituality are mined for compatibility--applies to the culture. Kaiping Peng, a professor of psychology at the University of California, Berkeley, who is assisting eHarmony, is unsure. "What is the best match might not be about matching exactly," he says. "Maybe it's complementary--like the yin and the yang." Americans are drawn to eHarmony's deeply...
Canada's currency did dive after the dollar coin was introduced - all through the 1990s and into the early part of this century. January 2002 was the bottom. At it's all-time low then, the Canadian dollar was worth just less than 62 U.S. cents. Recovery since then, dramatic and steady, began with something as dull as a rise in oil prices. With that, the laborious process of drawing viscous bitumen out of Alberta's oil sands became ever more viable. Massive shovels churned the earth, digging up the tons of sand needed to produce each barrel...
