...singles win of the dual-match season, Stewart suffered a 6-1, 6-7, 6-1 defeat at No. 5.“We were totally hanging in there with them,” Schnitter said. “The two ranked teams were very spirited, but we definitely rose to the occasion and matched them.”Schnitter won the only match of the day 6-3, 6-4 in the No. 4 slot. Despite the loss, Harvard was proud of its performance.“We were right there,” Schnitter said...
...probably the reason we had a chance to hang in there and win the game,” Tillman said. “He really played well, saw the ball well, had a great presence. He’s the guy that really rose to the challenge.” Coming out of the break the cushion was far from insurmountable for the Crimson, a team that has been known for its third-period outbursts over the opening games of the season.

Europe has similarly aggressive biofuel mandates and subsidies, and Brazil's filling stations no longer even offer plain gasoline. Worldwide investment in biofuels rose from $5 billion in 1995 to $38 billion in 2005 and is expected to top $100 billion by 2010, thanks to investors like Richard Branson and George Soros, GE and BP, Ford and Shell, Cargill and the Carlyle Group.
