...made even rowing in a straight line far from simple. “The conditions were extreme,” junior Grace Hallowell said. “I don’t think we’ve ever raced in anything like that. There were 20-25 mile-per-hour wins and it was difficult getting aligned at the start.” Competing against the elements challenged the Black and White’s rowers to maintain composure and strong fundamentals, but Radcliffe’s practice appears to be paying off. “In these conditions...
...This certainly resonates at Harvard, where student ambitions drive them to absurd, unhealthful behavior as a matter of course. One student I know put himself through the gauntlet of a 14-hour-per-day summer lab job pipetting in the hopes of snagging a future Harvard Medical School admissions letter; another suffered an existential crisis because he felt that none of his extracurriculars were sufficiently frivolous enough to show employers he could have fun.

After his packed schedule at London's G20 summit, his day in Strasbourg seemed almost relaxed, and included an hour at a youth town-hall meeting, where he answered questions about issues such as climate change and African poverty, before meeting with German Chancellor Angela Merkel; the NATO summit itself is scheduled as a three-hour meeting on Saturday morning. At the press conference with Sarkozy, Obama limited himself to saying that "the more capability we see here in Europe the happier the United States...
