...expedition there was no way that you would have left a man under a rock to die." SIR EDMUND HILLARY, the first man to climb Mount Everest in 1953, on the death of British mountaineer David Sharp, who froze just below Everest's summit last week as several other climbers passed by without trying to save...
...manual and wade through the acronyms until you find these. My plasma TV, a two-year-old Hitachi, just made the cut. With a little patience, I was able to get a beautiful picture, but when I switched video sources, the HD DVD player got confused and froze up, requiring me to restart the thing.

...technical malfunction halted the fifth group of the afternoon midway through its performance. The music for “Traveling Without Moving,” a piece choreographed by Wendy S. Cortez ’07 and S. Monica Soni ’06, stopped unexpectedly, and the dancers froze with anxious expressions on their faces. As the group waited for the problem to be fixed, one performer began to talk with her friends in the audience, which detracted from the energy and professionalism that had shaped the event thus far. The finale of the number and the subsequent...
