...Bulldogs, who had three. But that is on paper, not the hardwood.“We swept Cornell last year,” junior forward Evan Harris says. “I think a lot of people forgot about that. I feel like Columbia and Yale are always tough games, but I don’t see any reason why we can’t win.”The parity around the league is not the only cause for optimism. Harvard has a strong nucleus returning. Four of the five starters from the end of the season are back...
...with No. 23 Stanford the night before, Harvard began its middle game of the Basketball Travelers Classic at Maples Pavilion by trading baskets with the preseason favorites in the Big West Conference. “I thought we showed a lot of signs of batting back from a really tough, disappointing performance yesterday,” said Tommy Amaker, who fell to 0-2 as the Harvard head coach. “I was pleased with some of the growth we showed from one game to the next, and I thought we had an opportunity there, but they broke...

Keller believes she has evidence that they were, thanks to microscopic fossils of foraminifera, a type of plankton that largely died with the dinosaurs. Precisely dating the dinosaurs' demise is tough because most bones disintegrate before they can be fossilized. Plankton, by contrast, are preserved in ocean sediments. Keller studied sediments near the impact site in Mexico, where a massive bloom of new plankton species should have emerged within a handful of millenniums after the impact, taking advantage of the evolutionary room the extinctions created in the ocean. She found her bloom, all right, but 300,000 years later than...
