...game began with a wild and sloppy first half. Penn jumped out to a 12-6 lead five minutes in as it constantly beat the Crimson up the floor for baskets. Harvard answered that with a 12-0 run in which it forced four turnovers and watched Eggleston blow an easy two-hand dunk attempt. But the Quakers stayed strong and after Lin missed a lay-up with his team up 27-21 and under three minutes left, they closed out with a 10-0 run, despite another missed dunk, this time by Lewis...

DreamWorks built its own 3-D-authoring software and hardware and, along with Intel and Hewlett-Packard, built a server farm that fills a room, floor to ceiling, the size of a small banquet hall.

...just different,” Finelli said. “When you face a player of that caliber, you focus all your defense on that one person. With their more balanced team, we just all have to worry about our matchups and back each other up on the floor.”The Crimson will have to contend with a few very athletic Tiger guards.

...sixth floor of a high-rise apartment building lives a veteran of the opaque, unforgiving world of Chinese statecraft. Bao Tong was once a top aide to Zhao Ziyang, a former General Secretary of the Chinese Communist Party. Now he lives under virtual house arrest, his every move observed, every visitor screened by a handful of guards, every conversation presumably monitored. The Communist Party would clearly like him to fade into oblivion, to live out the rest of his days caring for his goldfish and taking walks in the park.
