...Harvard women’s volleyball team started off its season on the losing end of a shutout in the season opener against Sacred Heart University, dropping three straight games to the Pioneers (4-3) in the Pitt Center on Sunday. Although the Crimson (0-1) failed to capture a set, the women’s squad kept pace with its opponent throughout most of its first game. “At end of day they were more consistent then we were,” junior co-captain Katherine Kocurek said. “We had a lot of fight...

...slim, tanned Hollywoodians, and the press who stream into Ontario from three continents, TIFF is seen as the launching pad for films that have eyes on the Academy Awards. So do the movies' largest luminaries. Brad Pitt, John Malkovich, Frances McDormand and Tilda Swinton will be there in aid of Burn After Reading, a quirky spy caper from Joel and Ethan Coen, who nabbed the top Oscar with No Country for Old Men.

...final piece of this puzzling jigsaw is Linda's gym assistant Chad Feldheimer, played by Pitt with a blithe goofball goodness. Outfitted in Spandex, and getting around with a walk that suggests less a guest on Dancing With the Stars than a heretofore unclassified creature on Animal Planet, Chad-Brad is the least troubled character in the film.

For him, the unexamined life is the only one worth living...

PHNOM PENH, Cambodia — Maddox Jolie-Pitt and landmines. That was pretty much the extent of my knowledge about this exotic Southeast Asian country before I arrived. Now, after living here, working in the microfinance industry, and traveling extensively throughout the provinces, I feel a deep connection with the people and the history of Cambodia. The tragic history of the Cambodian people is not far beneath the surface of everyday life. In the taxi on the way to my hotel on my first night in Cambodia, I conversed with my driver about life in Cambodia, the best places...
