...We’ve had flooding...we’ve had steam explosions,” said Joshua D. Savage ’03, one of the authors. “A lot of the kids in Jordan don’t like their situation and when you add to that being physically removed from the House it makes it hard to knit with the House community...
...Maori of Whakarewarewa have perfected another cooking method as well: hangi, or steam-cooked, meals. Low stone boxes are built over steam vents and used as ovens.

Naqushbandi, like Lingman, won the first set convincingly and then curiously ran out of steam in the second. Yet again, Harvard was up to the challenge in the third, this time with Naqushbandi out-hitting her opponent from the baseline until finally triumphing on her second match point...
