...Crimson co-captain Akpan said. “It was a tough road game against an ACC team and I think our team had a solid overall performance.” The Crimson entered the matchup following a decisive 4-1 victory over Stony Brook this past Friday, where Akpan set a new Harvard record in career points. But the Crimson was unable to rest on its laurels as it prepared to meet the Eagles, a member of one of the most competitive conferences in the country. “We knew we were going to get a test...
That means raising its offer. Kraft's bid puts a price of 745 pence on each share, a 31% premium compared with Cadbury's closing price last Friday, Sept. 4.

Such a scenario would be an unprecedented display of a politician proving...
...details of a deadly coalition airstrike near the city of Kunduz in northern Afghanistan are yet vague. However, the attack has potentially deep military consequences as well as political ramifications far away - in Germany. NATO said in a statement that Friday's airstrike targeted militants who had stolen two fuel tankers the day before. It said that most of those killed were Taliban. But Afghan authorities are saying that civilians who had flocked to collect free fuel at the behest of insurgents died among them - with an overall death toll estimated as high as 70.
