And we didn’t.” In game one, Haviland fed the Quakers a steady diet of curveballs, confounding the opposition with a spot-on delivery and superb control. He produced a nearly identical line—seven-inning complete game, seven strikeouts, only one run allowed—to the one he served Princeton in a 4-1 victory on April 1. This time...

Paleoseismologist Tina Niemi of the University of Missouri--Kansas City, for example, is studying a stream-fed marsh near Tomales Bay that has preserved evidence of past earthquakes in its sedimentary layers. By trenching through those layers to a depth of 15 ft., she has uncovered buried fissures formed by recurrent earth movements along the San Andreas. On average, that pattern repeats every 250 or so years, but "average" in this case covers a wide range. In one instance there appears...
