...unable to make a comeback, and the game slipped away.JACKSONVILLE STATE 4, HARVARD 1Rusty from not having played outdoors all year thanks to the baseball-averse Cambridge climate, the Crimson offense struggled in its first game of the season.Zailskas provided all of Harvard’s production with a solo home run, but the Crimson wasted a solid outing by sophomore starter Dan Berardo, who gave up just one run in five and a third innings of work.“Berardo was fantastic in that game,” Douglas said. “He was hitting...
...long, exciting build-ups never seemed to completely cohere. Individual sections and musicians were adept at authentically delivering the folk tunes throughout; a theme in the flutes in the middle of the movement, backed by tight syncopations in the violins, was especially polished, as was a lush viola solo by Elizabeth C.

Removed from the lush pop arrangements and multiple vocalists of The New Pornographers, Case is able to fill the void on her solo albums with her own sultry harmonies and unexpected turns. Case?...
...while others aren’t as fortunate. One such track, “Moment of Surrender,” is much too slow and labored to occupy its seven minute length; the drums sound overly monotonous and lifeless, and there’s an unnecessary, unbelievably boring guitar solo in the closing minutes. Bono yelps in an admirable attempt at soulfulness, but it sounds forced and disingenuous.The grinding intro of “Get On Your Boots” is catchy, but gives way to awkwardly tossed off verses within a handclap-filled massacre of Elvis Costello?...
