...Unless the mines can be found first. "There are a lot of promises in land-mine detection, but still, what people often come back to is the guy poking around with a stick," says Elleholm, speaking of technologies such as ground-penetrating radar, infrared devices and thermal neutron activation. Many current methods are slow and cover no more than 1% of the estimated 77,220 sq. mi. of the world's land-mine-infested territory every year.

...came in the second frame. Lin has shown a similar ability to perform down the stretch so far in his rookie season. In the final seconds of overtime against UNH, he stole a Wildcats inbounds pass and took it the length of the court for the game-winning basket. Unless Colgate learned its lesson last year about the need to watch out for Harvard freshmen, Lin could surprise the Raiders and be the difference-maker again on Saturday. This will be the 19th meeting between the two teams. The Raiders lead the all-time series 12-6, but Harvard...
