CAMBRIDGE – A Harvard University poll shows that most American millennials believe the U.S. should intensify the fight against Islamic State terrorists in the Middle East with more ground troops – but few said they would willingly join the service to help.
While 60 percent of those surveyed said they would back sending in more troops to fight Islamic State forces, which have occupied parts of Iraq and Syria, 85 percent indicated they probably or definitely would not join the effort, even if military commanders called for reinforcements. The numbers for both questions rose following the Nov. 13 terrorist attacks in Paris.
NEW YORK (AP) — Daily fantasy sports giants DraftKings and FanDuel took a hit Friday in their fight to stay in business in New York, but a scramble to an appeals court kept DraftKings in play at least through the end of the NFL regular season.
FanDuel, meanwhile, had already suspended play from New York amid the sites' clash with state Attorney General Eric Schneiderman over whether daily fantasy sports amounts to illegal gambling. The company is based in New York.
