This is just too sad. A deer died yesterday after trying to jump over the wrought-iron fence around the cemetery between the Square and the Quad, according to the Cambridge Chronicle, which offers up the following quote from Cambridge Deputy Fire Chief Jack Gelinas...
...Aside from Ferrell fatigue and near-libelous reviews, there's another explanation for Land of the Lost's becoming the season's first pricey roadkill. After Night at the Museum 2 and Up, it was the third consecutive action comedy with at least one prehistoric beast. In two weeks, Jack Black and Michael Cera will play the dino-comedy card again with Year One. Sony, the film's distributor, might want to reposition Year One's marketing to emphasize its pedigree as a Judd Apatow comedy (from which The Hangover was clearly spawned), and to sell the primitive wilderness that...

In 2005, HMC’s legendary CEO Jack R. Meyer left the company with 30 other employees in tow to start his own hedge fund after enduring heated criticism for what some saw as excessive company compensation. Meyer, a 15-year veteran of HMC, had grown the endowment from $4.7 billion to $26 billion, achieving an annualized average return rate...
