...familiar formula of tight defensive play and a potent counter-attack helped the No. 22 Harvard men’s soccer team to its fifth straight victory Saturday afternoon. In the wind and rain in Princeton, the Crimson (8-3, 4-0 Ivy) downed the Tigers (4-9-1, 1-2-1) 2-0 to remain atop the league standings. The shutout was Harvard’s fourth in its last five games, and goals from junior Adam Rousmaniere and senior John Stamatis were enough for the win in what both co-captain Michael Fucito and junior Andre Akpan described...

...have been raining in Princeton, Saturday, but it certainly did not rain on the Crimson’s parade. Within the first 22 seconds of the women’s soccer game between Harvard (9-3-3, 4-1 Ivy) and No. 20 Princeton (9-2-2, 3-1-1), the Crimson pulled ahead of the Tigers and never relinquished the lead, ultimately winning 2-1. Princeton had the kickoff, but after the first touch, the Crimson stole the ball. Sophomore Katherine Sheeleigh took the ball up the right side of the field and booted a beautiful pass to junior...

...want his character to be stony and cold, but instead comes off as indifferent and detached. Perhaps De Niro has just made one too many movies; he seriously looks like he needs a break. Levinson, who won the Oscar for best director in 1988 for “Rain Man,” is not in top-notch form. In “What Just Happened?” the individual scenes creep along, especially during the first third of the movie as Levinson tries to establish Ben’s world. Between the sluggish pace and De Niro?...

...Eminem has a "fascination" with the movie Rain Man. He considers the Dustin Hoffman character a kindred spirit: whereas Hoffman boasted a facility with numbers, he is the rapper-savant. "This is all I know how to do," he says. "I can get in my car and drive, but I don't know how to get places." He sells himself a bit short: in addition to being a devoted father, he's a talented graphic artist, and the book contains a series of impressive sketches depicting the superheroes of rap (Tupac Shakur, 50 Cent, himself) and comic books (the Incredible...

...need the right eyes to see in the rain forests of Madagascar's Andasibe-Mantadia National Park--and being a suburban boy who now lives in Brooklyn, I don't have them. So I borrowed Marie Razafindrasolo's. She was my guide on a recent trip to Andasibe, where she pointed out a Parson's chameleon lying motionless on a branch and a panda-like indri dangling shyly from the top of a tree. Later Razafindrasolo took our group on a night walk through the fringes of the forest. She showed us golden Mantella frogs and leaf-tailed geckos...
