...obey a sort of invisible rock template, a self-conscious mechanism that mindlessly plugs in choruses, verses, hooks and solos, but never seems to be aware of what makes any of those things work together. The album plods along on autopilot for six straight tracks of virtually indistinguishable twin-guitar artillery, with doses of horn flourish applied intermittently in a futile attempt to enliven the record’s blandness. “The Switch and the Spur,” “Hold Up,” and “Top Yourself” all feel like...

...errors on the infield, Warren was forced to get extra outs in the fourth and fifth innings and could not escape without allowing a pair of unearned runs in each frame. If not for double plays to end both threats—the first a 1-2-3 twin killing started by Warren, the second a dazzling catch-and-throw in the right field corner by senior Tom Stack-Babich—the damage would have been worse. The low defensive moment came when first baseman Chris Rouches dropped an easy underhand toss from the pitcher, putting the leadoff runner...

DENVER—Maybe it was the altitude. Or perhaps it was history, a history that motivated Denver to exorcize the demons of the past two years, when the Harvard men’s lacrosse team recorded twin upsets of the Pioneers.Or maybe it was a second-half Crimson letdown and a late Denver surge that propelled the Pioneers (6-4) past Harvard in a 10-9 overtime win on Saturday afternoon in front of 1,480 fans at Peter Barton Lacrosse Stadium in Denver, Colo.It was the third straight loss for the Crimson (4-4) and the final contest...

...interesting. It's interesting all by itself. One thing distinguishes SHoP right away: it's not just a firm; it's a family. The five principals are Gregg Pasquarelli and his wife Kimberly Holden plus William and Coren Sharples, who are also husband and wife, and William's identical-twin brother Christopher. All of them are graduates of the Columbia University architecture program. Four of them were in the same 1994 graduating class. Three of them have the same birthday. (You can guess two of those...
