...bounds. Despite uneventful play in that frame, the Crimson finally found the net 5:42 into the second half, as sophomore midfielder Michael Fucito’s crossing pass found the head of captain Charles Altchek at the far post, good for the forward’s team-leading tenth goal of the season. “Our first goal was definitely the biggest,” Altchek said. “We had really opened the game up and it allowed us to play our natural style.” The Crimson’s ability to assume control...
...biggest co-ed regattas of the weekend, the Sherman Hoyt Trophy in Providence, R.I. A total of 22 races were on the docket, and in A-division, senior skipper Clay Johnson sailed along with senior crew Kristen Lynch and junior crew Elyse Dolbec to a tenth-place Crimson finish.

Thus, the 55 million married households become a smaller part of the whole...
...beat them, buy 'em. Having launched its own video site with great fanfare last year, Google conceded defeat to its competition Monday, swallowing up video sharing site YouTube.com for $1.65 billion in stock. While Google Video had been able to capture just a tenth of the online video market, YouTube has about 47%, according to Web monitoring agency Hitwise. And visitors, on average, spend twice as long on YouTube (18 minutes) as they do watching Google videos. So Google pounced, betting that online video ads and distribution will be key to the search giant's future revenue growth. "YouTube built...
