...find a solution to its most pressing current problem—the quarterback spot—may well involve looking backwards, to a player who was once a blockmate of Pizzotti and a member of the 2004 squad. With a pair of juniors, Matt Simpson and Collier Winters, struggling somewhat in the Spring Game, the best case for Harvard may be the return of Andrew Hatch, the well-traveled former Crimson quarterback who started two games for Louisiana State last season. Hatch is attempting to get back to Cambridge to finish his career in a Harvard uniform, although the jury...
...seconds remaining, 74 yards is a long way to go.Both Boothe and DeOssie are still on the roster, while Finn is navigating the free agent market. The Giants have since added Columbia’s Steve Cargile to backup Kenny Phillips at safety.Ryan Fitzpatrick ’05 was somewhat of a one-hit wonder. In his debut with the Rams, Fitzpatrick came in after Jamie Martin got injured in the second quarter and took the Rams from a 24-3 halftime deficit to a 33-27 win in overtime while throwing for 310 yards and three touchdowns.Since, Fitzpatrick...
...have "left" religion. In the 2008 survey, 16% of Americans said they had no religious affiliations, but of that group, only 10% identified themselves as atheists and 15% as agnostics.

Unlike the U.S., where companies slash jobs at the first sign of financial trouble, many of Singapore?s largest companies are controlled by the government. Retrenchments at such government-linked giants as offshore oil rig builder Keppel Corporation, shipper Neptune Orient Lines, or DBS Bank are considered a last resort, after pay cuts, reduced employer contributions to retirement funds, and unpaid leave. A spokesperson for Singapore Airlines, for example, confirmed that in early April roughly a tenth of the airline's 14,000 employees had agreed to take unpaid leave...
After the Bauhaus school closed in 1933, Kandinsky and his wife, Nina, went to France, settling in Neuilly-sur-Seine. Instead of being surrounded by like-minded colleagues, he was now somewhat isolated. He had been experimenting in new directions before he left the Bauhaus, but his isolation, and freedom from the need to be didactic, may explain the playfulness that breaks out in his work. He carefully mixed colors - sage, sky blue, maroon - and experimented with texture, using controlled paint splatter for a sandy effect. Nothing is still: in Colorful Ensemble (1938) the splatters are a background of dots...
