...result, though, is a cup of coffee that tastes less like a cup of coffee. My first sip of Pikes Place was simultaneously harsh and weak. (OK, actually, my first sip was dominated by notes of overwhelming pain, because of the universal takeout practice of boiling coffee like the cauldrons of Hell so it arrives at its destination warm.) The lighter roast results in some brighter notes, but it also gives you a less full-bodied coffee - yet one that still tasted a little overboiled. (Maybe I'd caught the pot toward the end of its 30-minute shelf life...
...banged up, with front-of-the-rotation sophomore starter Eric Eadington possibly out for the next six weeks, if not more, and just about every veteran in the bullpen hurting in some capacity. The lineup has been equally unreliable, with captain and top hitter Matt Vance playing through some pain, senior outfielder Tom Stack-Babich catching the injury bug, and the rest of the order just playing inconsistently in general. Before Harvard posted five runs in its first game against Cornell yesterday, the Crimson had only scored twice in its previous four contests...
...fall of 1994, Ann was having dinner at her friend Patten's house in Jakarta when she felt a pain in her stomach. A local doctor diagnosed indigestion.

Since 1974, those who purchase gasoline have paid a 25-yen ($0.25) per liter tax. But the law that enforced the surcharge ended on March 31. The Fukuda government submitted a revision to the tax reform...
...reading their high school yearbooks and listening to the 2012 equivalent of Evanescence while sitting in the dark with the shades drawn. They will wonder why Harvard administrators thought it was OK to convert their suite’s bathroom into a double. They will grin and bear the pain of using the floor as a desk, since the College will have sold off their dorm furniture to pay for bigger touch-screens in the dining halls. And they’ll smell terrible, since Harvard will have shut off their shower to conserve water and make the campus...
