...match. Throughout all three competitions, the Crimson kept its composure, focus and drive. “I think everyone showed a lot of heart and gave everything they had for every match,” DiSesa said. One problem that has plagued Harvard in recent weeks is the strenuous schedule. Over the past two weeks the Crimson has played some of its most important and competitive matches within in a few days of each other. Last weekend, Harvard played Ivy League rivals Penn and Princeton in back-to-back matches. The Crimson has had very little time to recuperate before...

In an attempt to win back voters, the SPD 's party chief Kurt Beck moved the party towards the left, arguing, for example, for increases in welfare spending - over Müntefering's strenuous objections. Business leaders in Germany have also complained that the government is giving up on the kinds of reforms they say are still required for Germany's economic revival...
