...missed Housman three-pointer led to another Huskies possession, where Adako managed to put in another basket. The Crimson found its rhythm again in freshman Peter Boehm, whose three-pointer brought the game back to one point. It was not enough to grab another lead, though, and Harvard never came back on top. The Crimson’s best chance to come back came on a missed drive to the basket by Boehm, in which a questionable call by the referee led to neither a foul nor a block.

Like it or not, the holiday season has officially arrived. While you may not be prepared for yet another Christmas blitz, the two weeks between Thanksgiving and Christmas breaks are really just filler anyway. So you might as well grab a peppermint mocha twist, start untangling those lights, and make use of your restless pre-vacation energy.

For a series of cashbox heists across the capital, Lwanga hired and coached children, some as young as 14, to rush the security guards, grab the box and make their getaway, while he watched from a little way off. His haul was $200,000 in just a few months, and Lwanga thought his only problem was laundering the cash. In fact, the police were already on to him; they just couldn't prove it. Until, that is, he was picked...
