...khakis, wool sweaters worn over collared shirts, and tweed jackets with suede elbow patches? Such spruce style goes against every notion I have of what it means to be male and in college. After some digging through The Crimson’s archives, I realized that varsity sweaters and schoolboy blazers are just as central to the pretense of the school as its final clubs: collegiate fashion can’t be separated from our institution because it was, in fact, invented right within Harvard’s own hallowed halls. To bring some historical context into this, college campuses...
...Westcott bounces over to Maher to give him a hug to the underscoring of the “Brokeback Mountain” theme song. This moment is almost matched when, in a later sequence with a bonafide pothead with clerical credentials, Maher jumps up like a schoolboy as the Reverend’s hair is lit on fire by a nearby candle. Never have the words “Look out! Your head is on fire!” been more profound...
...Ralph Lauren's first collection in 1968 made the tweed suit a menswear staple. And now Lower East Side hipsters can't seem to get enough of the classic suiting fabric, signaling that tweed is staging a comeback. For his fall collection, Junya Watanabe spun the storied fabric into schoolboy blazers nostalgic for jaunts across Cambridge's Bridge of Sighs.

Since then, the Administration has tried bribery, offering blandishments like free food and fuel oil in hopes that North Korea would stand down its nuclear program. Kim has responded a bit - his nuclear reactor at Yongbyon, which produced the fissile material...
Throughout his entire first term and most of his second, U.S. President George W. Bush has tried pretty much everything to get North Korean dictator Kim Jong Il to come out of his cage. He has tried to coerce him with economic sanctions and schoolboy bluster-a policy course that ended on in the autumn of 2006, when Kim tested a nuclear weapon, precisely the opposite of the result Bush intended. Since then, the Administration has tried bribery, offering blandishments like food and free fuel oil in hopes that in return North Korea would stand down its nuclear program...
