...source of humor on campus. Members of the Harvard College Stand Up Comics Society have been invited to the stand-up division of the RooftopComedy’s National College Comedy Competition Tournament, exclusively designed to discover the “funniest” students in America. The bracket-style tournament bases acceptance on the comedic value of clips submitted by college stand-up groups. “There are eight people from each school, and two schools go head-to-head at a local comedy club,” said Charles T.

...tipsy warbling of De Brevitate Vitae or other commercium songs, now only the echoes of mass-market electronic recordings disturb the silence of Saturday evenings. Beer pong has replaced banter, courtship has yielded to hook-ups, pot is preferred to pipe tobacco.

Sjávarkjallarinn has a reputation for its chichi clientele who come to indulge in one of Reykjavík's priciest menus and the restaurant's delightfully over-the-top presentation. Sashimi arrives on billowing beds of mist, courtesy of dry ice. Prawns and langoustine must be fished out of glass jars. Almond-and-lime skyr, a strained Icelandic cheese, is served on a banana leaf, wrapped like a present with bows and cellophane paper. The elaborate packaging is charming, but ultimately unnecessary: flavor and freshness make a meal at the Seafood...
