Paradoxically, Clinton will be aided by the fact that President Barack Obama has never been to Beijing, has previously said relatively little about China and is thus viewed there as something of a blank slate. Although that has caused anxiety among Chinese officials, it may also be a virtue...
...huge conference games against Cornell and Columbia, both of which are nipping at the Crimson’s heels in the Ivy League standings. Saturday night’s matchup with the Bears, on the other hand, wasn’t much for drama. After opening its Ivy slate with a gritty two-point win at Yale, Brown has dropped its last five games: all five at home, all five to league opponents. The night before the Crimson came to town, the Bears had dropped an embarrassing 58-27 decision to Dartmouth on just 18-percent shooting from the field...
...that’s huge,” he said. “Our tournament team is better than our dual team, and I’m excited about going to NCAAs with three guys in the top ten.”HARVARD 32, PRINCETON 9The Crimson dominated its slate of bouts against the Tigers (2-13, 1-5), dropping only one of the seven contests.

Which raises questions: What does it mean to be alive? What is the Dollhouse's obligation to the people whose memories it "resurrects"? Is Echo herself, Caroline or the sum of her borrowed parts...
...Love You” by Mario topped the Billboard Hot 100 and Hitch reigned over the box office.Since then, the Bulldogs have taken six straight from the Crimson. Harvard (9-9, 1-3 Ivy) hopes to reverse that trend this weekend in its penultimate slate of home games. The Crimson faces Yale (7-11, 2-2 Ivy) tonight and Brown (6-12, 0-4 Ivy) tomorrow night at Lavietes Pavilion. Last weekend, Harvard dropped a pair of close games to Penn and Princeton at home. The losses, part of a three-game losing streak, were largely a product of errant...
