...distant, primeval past. Yet these distinctive images are lost by dilution, by the worst kind of overkill. Take this stanza from “Underground Beauty”: “Inside, tiny sparkling / mineral, gypsum flowers, / lettuce and coral, shy trident / bats, fairy shrimp- / eggs which hatch after fifteen years.” Poets have used lists to great effect before. But unlike Gerard Manley Hopkins in “Pied Beauty,” a poem similarly concerned with nature and spirituality, Nilsson merely lists. The words above have no particular rhythmic quality; the enjambments...
...naked bathers, load-bearing diagonals in an arching composition, are as sexless as shopping-mall escalators.) But it's the paradox of Czanne that his multitude of discrete strokes can destabilize forms even as he builds them up, dissolving them into a force field of shimmering hatch marks.

More than a half-century later, Picasso painted his young mistress Marie-Thrse in The Dream with the same weighty decorum...
Former Harvard quarterback Andrew Hatch ’09-’11, who briefly started for football powerhouse Louisiana State University in 2008 after taking a leave of absence from the Crimson, has returned to Cambridge to pursue a Harvard degree, he said in a phone interview yesterday.

In March of 2008, the college announced a two-year moratorium on transfer admissions due to housing limitations. That policy appears to also apply to Hatch, despite past instances of athletes transferring out and then...
...Senators who witnessed the event were optimistic about Kennedy's condition. "It was a difficult thing, but it looked to me as if he would be O.K.," said Hatch. "He was starting to do O.K. by the time he was being wheeled out." Later, Obama's chief of staff, Rahm Emmanuel, said Kennedy was doing better and "responding well to treatment." Senator Dodd, who noted that Kennedy had been having seizures in the recent past, reported that Kennedy was talking as he was put in the ambulance, saying, "O.K., see you later."
