...methodical, motion-oriented offense to grind out a 21-12 halftime lead. The only thing that prevented that deficit from growing much larger was the uncharacteristically stingy Harvard defense, which held Princeton to only seven field goals on 30 percent shooting. After Tigers center Zach Finley dropped in a hook shot to open the scoring in the second half, pushing the lead to 11, the Crimson snapped out of its offensive stupor. A jumper by Housman broke the seal on the Harvard basket and served to ignite the explosive point guard and his team. Goffredo earned his first two points...
...enter the break down 21-12. But the second half would bring out a different Crimson team on the offensive end, a transformation that was personified by Housman’s play. Harvard was down 23-12 following Tigers’ center Zach Finley’s jump hook when Housman got the Crimson’s first field goal in over 18 minutes with a floater in the lane at the 18:24 mark. This basket would ignite a 15-0 run by the home team, with the last nine points of the spurt scored by the point guard...
...never been a matter of concern for the geek-punk quartet. The video for their most popular song to date, “Here We Go Again,” is the model of this philosophy.

The music video for their newest single, “Do What You Want,” is more of the same in many ways, and a great departure...
...State Department officials deny they've let North Korea off the hook. "He's just wrong," Rice sniffed in response to Bolton's criticisms. The Administration argues that their deal is much stronger than the one negotiated in '94 because it effectively isolates Kim. The Agreed Framework was bilateral, the argument goes, whereas this time North Korea's neighbors-including its closest ally and major benefactor, China-are signatories to the deal, which should force Pyongyang to keep its promises and continue to bargain in good faith. The Chinese were infuriated by Kim's October nuclear blast; President Hu Jintao...
...sweeping the nation in vivid grayscale. The song, like many other Young Jeezy tracks, touts the street lifestyle—it’s for those who “trap all day” and “play all night.” The hook? R. Kelly’s mellifluous voice on the chorus, not to mention the video’s blatant disregard of color. The video opens with Jeezy leaving what appears to be a run of the mill, middle-class household, only to get into what is clearly not a run of the mill...
