...play to win on a last second jumper, 60-59. Last year, the Crimson used a 20-8 run in the last seven minutes to force overtime and win. Sufficed to say, the Harvard faithful have seen some of the team’s greatest highs and lowest lows in its battles against the Tigers.

...evaluations is flawed, potentially resulting in misleading ratings. Some of the questions are redundant or not applicable for many courses and could be easily omitted on a course-by-course basis, but often are not.

Buchanan's forecast for China's GDP growth in 2009 is among the most bearish: 6%. If he's right, that would be the lowest rate since 1990.
