...Baqubah, the provincial capital of Diyala Province, left some 40 people dead and wounded roughly 80 others, according to initial reports. Another explosion tore through Ramadi, a town which U.S. officials hailed as a success story in recent months because of its dramatically lower levels of violence. That attack killed 13 and left a similar number wounded...
...Bardot's defense Tuesday was that her passionate denunciation of the ritual slaughter of Eid-al-Kabir had been misinterpreted as an attack on Islam in France. A similar defense had failed to spare her from conviction in four earlier trials. In 1997, for example, Bardot was first convicted on the charge of "inciting racial hatred" for her open letter to French daily Le Figaro, complaining of "foreign over-population", mostly by Muslim families...

The squad allowed just three goals before the break, and Princeton’s first third quarter shot didn’t come until after nearly eight minutes of play...

The result was constant pressure on Harvard’s defense. Although Crimson goaltender Joe Pike did his best to stave off the Princeton attack, the Tigers cut the lead to 7-6 midway through the period. Harvard got a little breathing room when junior midfielder Jeff Wannop notched his first collegiate goal. His score came on an unassisted effort, as he circled from behind the crease, jumped, and fired a shot into the back...
