...media attention has left a few lone voices wondering if a high-class drug scene is an inevitable consequence of India's recent economic growth and newfound wealth. It's no secret that there are drug-fueled raves on the outskirts of Delhi, and just last week, Indian authorities seized 200 kilograms of cocaine from a South African ship in a Bombay port. Authorities and journalists alike point fingers at India's Nigerian community, who they claim arrive on easily obtainable student visas before beginning to deal cocaine and heroin to the wealthy.

...Northeastern by two boat lengths the final weekend of the season. Still, the Crimson expect its toughest challenge from Wisconsin, and a speedier Princeton boat as well as a very talented crew from Northeastern will make for a contested finish at Lake Quinsigamond. The Huskies’ lone dual loss of the season came to Harvard on the final day of the season.A season of lopsided dual wins augurs well, but the three weeks of preparation and the six-across start leave the winner’s dock wide open to upsets. “We really don?...
