...them.” HARVARD 5, DARTMOUTH 2 In the second game of the day it was Dartmouth who crossed the plate first. With Harvard senior Amanda Watkins starting on the mound, the Big Green turned a one-out single into a run with another single, followed by a walk and then a sacrifice fly to left. The Crimson did not wait long to respond. In the second, senior Danielle Kerper got Harvard’s first hit of the game with a shot to right field. Two batters later junior Bailey Vertovez smacked her first home...
These arguments seem inconsequential when you take a walk along the Fletcher Cove beach. It's not the white-sanded littoral paradise of a thousand movies but a grungy, rock-strewn place. A municipal storm drain releases onto the main part of the beach, and a sign warns that the water issuing from it may be unhealthy.

One wall of the main room had a series of stairs that led to the ceiling, at the top of which Rick Davis, the campaign manager...
...will continue to be, successful thanks to its concrete goals and quantitative benchmarks. Menino’s speech made this clear when he described both the real threats of climate change to Boston (such as rising sea levels which, he said, could submerge the city’s Harbor Walk) and also the city’s response to these threats (such as leveraging $500 million for efficiency enhancements, and creating a new job market for those who provide Clean Tech services). The mayor even set quantitative goals for reducing citywide emissions, such as a seven percent reduction below...
