...while I do think that the students living in the nearby river houses should have been given fair warning about the noise and disruption they might face--in a final insult, my roommate was even asked to show her Harvard ID as she tried to get past the barricades to get back into Winthrop House later in the day--the event was a great one.

Although the impact knocked him out briefly, he reached Cappozza; a boat sent from shore pulled them from the water. Says Spring Valley fire chief Robert Schultz: "He saw a woman in distress and did what he is trained...
