Although the Crimson defense allowed only two field goals in the second half, the 27 points was more than the unit allowed in all but one game last year: the 35-34 come-from-behind victory against Brown. The Bears were also the only team to lead Harvard at halftime last season...
Senior captain Erik Grimm, who said Friday that “[the defense’s] first goal is to be the number one scoring defense in the league,” described his unit as “flat in the first half...
...last time I was in an HH-60 Pave Hawk helicopter, it was screaming over the Iraqi desert, doors open, hot air blowing in like a blast furnace. That was in 2003, when I was an embedded reporter with an Air Force combat rescue unit.

It had Play/Pause and Stop, but it didn't have any clearly marked volume buttons nor anything clearly marked for fast-forwarding and rewinding. (To find these controls you have to push buttons at random, which can lead to unpleasant situations...
