...East schools. The defending NCAA champions exercised their home course advantage, earning a team total of 725 points. Of the Crimson’s 256 points, 29 were put up by sophomore Christopher Kinner on the Alpine side. Kinner earned 17 points in his 26th place finish in the giant slalom race on Friday and another 12 in the slalom the following afternoon. Kinner’s performance in the GS proved impressive in Friday’s stacked results, as his time of 1:56.9 placed him in the 26th position, but was a mere 2.6 seconds...

The company’s need to pile on meaning often foiled its potential charm.

Such a simple modification of dining hall policy could have numerous benefits for both the environment and for students themselves. Not only does trayless dining eliminate greenhouse gases by reducing energy expenditure during tray-washing, but it is also likely to reduce the number of dishes HUDS washes...
...Democratic Party has an uneasy power-sharing deal with the Prime Minister Vojislav Kostunica, a moderate nationalist. Kostunica refused to support Tadic during the campaign, and shares many of Nikolic's pro-Russian sentiments. In January, Kostunica signed a much criticized privatization deal in Moscow, allowing Russia's oil giant Gazprom to assume full control over Serbia's oil and gas industry for just under $700 million. Tadic was skeptical about the deal - experts and even some government ministers felt it was too lenient towards Gazprom - but he stopped short of openly opposing...
