...only Harvard player to suit up on Friday night against Yale, the Crimson still might have had a shot at a win. In his most well-rounded performance of the season, Richter stopped 37 Bulldog shots and surrendered just one goal—a loss he was able to recoup all on his own in the second period. As the last Harvard player to touch the puck on a Yale own goal, Richter was credited with the score, the first netminder in Crimson history to receive such an honor. “That was awesome?...
...anything but one of the investment banking "Masters of the Universe" made famous by Tom Wolfe in the 1980s. He was a relatively ordinary young professional on an obscure trading desk, who bet the wrong way on the Nikkei's direction; then he doubled down, trying to recoup the firm's money, and lost again. At one point in early 1995, he had half the open interest on the Nikkei futures, along with 85% of the Japanese bond contract that he traded. Those were staggeringly large positions. But those to whom he reported, who made more money and had more...
...example," says Dunleavy, who expects most buyers will be film industry employees, though the units would be available to anyone. Media reports set the project's cost at around $400 million, a figure Pinewood doesn't dispute but won't confirm.

(After that, revenues from a drug can drop as much as 80% within months as generics erode the market.) The law allows drug firms a 30-month monopoly extension to resolve patent disputes. That loophole is much abused. Companies often sue generic manufacturers just to buy time...
...scoring goals, but also in getting assists and creating opportunities.” The end of every season opens new holes as seniors leave for graduation, and Harvard is counting on Meintel’s drive to surpass last year’s strong performance in order to recoup those losses. As the team prepares to face the best of the ECAC, how Meintel steps into his new role will prove critical to the team’s quest to return to the NCAA Tournament after failing to qualify last season for the first time since...
