...League standings. The Crimson succeeded in doing just that by beating Yale 65-55 at Lavietes Pavilion, in a game Harvard coach Kathy Delaney-Smith described as “messy, messy, messy.” Most of the game was played at a frenetic pace, giving the crowd little time to breathe. And the memory of last year’s matchup as well as some questionable referee decisions made sure that there was plenty of emotion coming from the Crimson players and staff.

From the subway station at Sugamo, a neighborhood of northwestern Tokyo's Toshima Ward, riders ascend single file to street level at the pace of treacle on a winter day - a pace that allows for eyes to adjust to the rising step and for a firm grip on both red rubber handrails. Here in "Grannies' Harajuku" (based on the name of a district famous for its nubile trendsetters and fashion pranksters), slow is the operative word.
