...forward recorded six points during a crucial 11-6 spurt by the Crimson that gave it a 68-63 lead with 3:16 remaining and allowed it to hold on for its second road win in as many tries. Against Holy Cross last Tuesday, Stehle recorded a relatively pedestrian 10 points, eight rebounds and three blocks. But he fought off the struggles from the field to trigger the Crimson’s 23-7 run that saw it erase a nine-point deficit and forge a three-possession lead of its own.After junior guard Ko Yada hit a three-pointer...
...addition to bookshelves. Damrosch likes to note that this is the first single-volume Rousseau biography to be written in English.

In an age where the pedestrian is deemed “excellent” and the excellent “unprecedented,” he acquitted himself in a way that no one in my generation can even contemplate.As the marine continued to speak, my mind continued to turn. My initial surge of pride at hearing...
...rock band; in their spare time they also work as 2 Many DJs, spinning out some of the catchiest electro-pop ever to hit a dance floor. Here, 2 Many DJs finally gets around to remixing Soulwax, and never mind the identity politics, it works to great effect. The pedestrian angst of Krack is recast with a tighter rhythm and a jubilant harmony; Miserable Girl is sped up to sound decidedly less like one. The rock soul of their originals remains, but they're more fun with dancing shoes...
