...billion acquisition spree that has netted Britain's Tetley Tea, South Korea's Daewoo Commercial Vehicles, Singapore's NatSteel and New York City's Pierre Hotel, among more than a dozen others. And it's not over yet. Last week, Anglo-Dutch steelmaker Corus agreed an $8 billion takeover bid by Tata Steel. If the deal goes through, it would be the largest-ever Indian acquisition of a foreign firm, and it would catapult Tata from the world's 56th largest steel producer to the fifth.

...Leary said. “I have confidence [that] I know what it takes to be a championship team, but you can never stop learning.”Whether the team—which suffered a blow to its position of national prominence last year, missing an NCAA bid for the first time in nine seasons—can translate Lofgren’s success into team success is yet to be seen. But what is known, and will hopefully help Radcliffe in the upcoming season, is that as with Davies before her, the crew once again...

When TIME asked MADONNA this summer about rumors that the mother of two might adopt a child, her response was a coy "Never say never." That's pop-star speak for "Very soon." A judge in Malawi last week approved her bid to take home a motherless 1-year-old, a move applauded by the boy's father. But local rights groups still objected. Apparently Madge's efforts to raise millions of dollars to help the sub-Saharan country's 900,000 or so orphans doesn't change the fact that she's no Angelina Jolie...
...been learning in these last few weekends that we need to go all out on every single point as if it’s game point.”YALE 3, HARVARD 1On Friday night at the MAC, the Crimson captured game one decisively but failed in its upset bid against first-place Yale, losing 3-1 (24-30, 30-24, 30-26, 30-20). With Kocurek still out of the lineup, Mahon stepped in at libero for the first time in her collegiate career, recording 19 digs on the night and leading the Crimson to a 30-24 drubbing...
