Despite searching The Pit, Brattle Street, and Harvard Yard shortly after the attack, police officers were not able to find the suspect. Jennifer Flagg of the Cambridge Police Department said that witnesses described the attacker as a white male who is approximately 25 years old, 5 feet 10 inches tall, and between 150-180 pounds...
...Lord himself - in The Book of Eli, the grand and grimy post-apocalyptic western from the twin auteurs Allen and Albert Hughes. They must have recognized an anomaly in Washington's quarter-century star career: that, like Tom Hanks but not many others, he's been a major movie male without anchoring an action franchise.

A fully grown dragonfish, which Yap says aspiring Chinese businessmen gravitate to, can fetch up to $20,000 - each. Producing the fish isn't easy; eggs are often held inside a male dragonfish's mouth until they hatch. When they're sold, Yap implants a microchip in its belly and delicately packs it in pre-oxygenated cold water, often to be sent north to China by plane...
