...paint-by-numbers, of course, and Light’s book doesn’t pretend to prescribe a singular path to success. It does, however, include enough specific examples from student interviews that I could cobble together a roster of activities from the book for my two-week blitz. I would try and do everything specifically mentioned in the book and then improvise when only broad categories (i.e. athletics=happiness) were listed...
...pioneering low-carb regimen created by the late Dr. Robert Atkins begins with a two-week induction period that limits dieters to 20 grams of net carbs a day, ideally via two cups of salad and one cup of nonstarchy vegetables. The low-carb intake leads to KETOSIS, in which the body burns fat for energy. Successive phases of the meaty diet gradually add more carbs--nuts, berries and veggies--as weight loss slows...

Revenues at the 1,800-store chain edged up 2%, to $35.6 billion last year, as the company logged $170 million in losses.

He also maintains that his tough stance on labor negotiations--which resulted in a strike in Southern California that cost the region...
...year. Harvard lost, fair and square. The team that plays the best for an entire season should make the playoffs. Otherwise, why bother having a regular season at all? If only two weeks are needed to determine what teams advance to the national championship, why not just play a two-week season...
Honestly, I’d like to see an Ivy League basketball conference championship—but only because it would give the Harvard men’s basketball team a chance to upset Penn or Princeton. But this is the easy way out. Winning a two-week tournament should not trump four months of games. And yet, in college hockey and basketball (except the Ivy League), the regular season is deemed meaningless. At-large bids help, but only for the big schools. In men’s hockey, the ECAC received just one bid this year?...
