...Harvard is still missing its top defenseman, junior Cori Bassett, who sustained an injury in the Crimson’s first matchup with the Big Green last month. While her return date is still uncertain, starting goaltender Christina Kessler will rejoin the team this weekend after spending the last week fulfilling her duties with the Canadian U-22 team.

...dark year is now over, but automakers don't yet see the dawn. Jim Lentz, president of Toyota Motor Sales U.S.A., says he expects sales in the first quarter of 2009 to be similar to those in the fourth quarter of 2008 - dreadful. While the outlook remains too uncertain for any consensus to emerge on full-year 2009 sales, carmakers are hoping to see some signs of life this spring.

Cigar smoking first took hold elsewhere in the Americas-exactly where and when remains uncertain. A ceramic pot discovered in Guatemala that dates at least as far back as the 10th century depicts a Mayan puffing on tobacco leaves bound up with string. (The Mayans may also have handed down the object's name: their term for smoking, sikar, likely led to the Spanish cigarro, from which the cigar takes its name.) When Columbus stumbled upon the Americas...

...freedom of encountering them and putting them on paper. In his Nobel speech, which tried to explain his method of evasion, Pinter said, "It's a strange moment, the moment of creating characters who up to that moment have had no existence. What follows is fitful, uncertain, even hallucinatory, although sometimes it can be an unstoppable avalanche. The author's position is an odd one. In a sense he is not welcomed by the characters. The characters resist him, they are not easy to live with, they are impossible to define. You certainly can't dictate to them...
