...other day, at my weekly counseling session, the psychiatrist asked me what some of my coping techniques were. I thought for a minute and then replied, “Sometimes, when I’m lonely, I hold my pee-pee, really fast.” As the fourteen other students in my Tuesday afternoon Core section turned their faces away in disgust, the TF explained to me that this was not therapy, and that I had to leave Sever 102 immediately. As I walked through the Yard, I looked forward to an afternoon of warming myself by the giant...

They were fourteen average Texas citizens, a mix of young and middle-aged, eight men and six women, but as the days went by Sharon Cave watched this Austin jury leave behind the mundane to confront the unthinkable. Over and over again, they viewed photographs of her 21-year-old daughter, her body mutilated and dismembered, and listened to hours of gruesome testimony, only to be told at the end of each day to go home to their families and friends and keep what they had seen and heard to themselves. Watching their struggle, Cave was convinced these jurors...

...near him so that all his shots were contested.” The Bears’ own sharpshooter, McAndrew, finished with a team-high 19 points, despite tough defense from a variety of Harvard guards, including Housman, sophomore Andrew Pusar, and freshmen Jeremy Lin and Darryl Finkton. Fourteen of his points did come in the second half, including a ridiculous up-and-under reverse layup, resulting in a three-point play to put his team up 65-52 with 4:52 to play. After McAndrew’s highlights, the Crimson finally went on the run that it had been...

...Myspace—it’s the future,” says Guster drummer Brian Rosenworcel. It’s a strange prospect for a band whose past consisted of selling demo tapes out of guitar cases during sidewalk performances in Harvard Square. Fourteen years since Guster’s inception, Rosenworcel and bandmates Ryan Miller, Adam Gardner, and Joe Pisapia are still making music. They’ve lost the demos and gone digital, trading sidewalks for stadiums as the music industry has forced them to evolve. In an effort to thank the fans that saw them through...
