Coming off Sunday’s 17-inning victory against Princeton, Harvard (7-18, 5-3 Ivy) begins its quest for its third Beanpot Championship today against Northeastern (14-10, 5-4 CAA). The contest, slated to begin at 3 p.m., will be played at Campanelli Stadium in Brockton, Mass. and will determine which of the teams play for the championship on Monday—against either Boston College or Massachusetts—at Fenway Park. If recent history between the two teams is any indication, this year’s game will be a close one. The opening-round...

There have already been significant anti-Olympics protests, one of which included thousands of the city's roughly 13,000-member police force, who are seeking a pay raise. Meanwhile, critics question the suitability of the moderately-sized Washington Park for an Olympic Stadium - and argue that despite officials' pledges to downsize the stadium after the Games, the park's landscape will be destroyed...
