...again to make it 2-0 in the bottom of the sixth inning. Katie Fitta reached first after slapping down a nice bunt. She then advanced to second base on a sacrifice bunt by Nicole Desharnais. Fitta advanced to third on an outfield fly, and scored on a Fromholz smash to left field. That was all Harvard would need for its 2-0 victory...

The four monitors will all use liquid and solid crystals to record the origin of gamma- ) ray sources. As the rays smash into the crystals, they produce flashes of light called scintillations.

Nye pulls off without a hitch tongue-twisters like this one: "Stu-Stu Studio stock has slipped significantly, suggesting a single, sudden smash success is the solitary studio-saving scenario." Unfortunately, his role is limited to rushing onto the stage with periodic bad news...
