...frame. By switching from man-to-man to an extended 3-2 zone, the Crimson was able to contain the sharp-shooting Princeton squad, who shot 6-of-14 from three-point range in the first half. Coupled with stellar offensive play from Harvard, the Crimson built upon its halftime lead of 32-29. The only problem for Harvard: with the exception of two free throws from captain Jim Goffredo, nobody but Housman scored for the rest of the half. For more than 20 crucial minutes, from early in the second half until well into the second overtime, Housman...

The resulting LP, “A Weekend In The City,” will not likely disappoint, as it builds upon the success of their first album with catchy up-tempo dance beats and the moody lyrics of lead singer Kele Okereke. The album opens with Okereke in an almost theatrical falsetto on the track “Song For Clay (Disappear Here),” before the entrance...
...self-help books have become mainstream. In fact, a large proportion of students at Harvard have presumably read at least one, since the syllabus for Psychology 1504: Positive Psychology included “The Six Pillars of Self-Esteem”.When did the American public become so reliant upon the advice of others? Actually, it’s not just the Americans. In England the Somerset County Council has introduced a new program in which doctors prescribe self-help books instead of medication for mildly depressed patients. The Weston Mercury , a British local newspaper, quotes Councilman Justin Robinson...
