Question: Write an article that answers the following question: How many points ahead were the Raiders at the end of the first half?
Article: After losing two straight games, the Raiders looked to rebound at Qualcomm Stadium, facing a Chargers team coming off a big win at Indianapolis. The game started well for the Raiders; thanks to a muffed punt by Darren Sproles that was recovered by Hiram Eugene at the San Diego 18yard line, and set up a 9-yard rushing touchdown by Jason Campbell. Scoring continued in the first quarter with a 4-yard pass from Campbell to Jacoby Ford; and gave the Raiders an early 14-0 lead over the Chargers. The second quarter started with a 9-play, 48yard drive that ended on a 39-yard field goal by Nate Kaeding, giving San Diego its first points of the game. Oakland answered with a rushing touchdown by Michael Bush, extending the lead to 21-3. The first half closed on a missed field goal by Kaeding. The second half started with a quite calm third quarter, who saw both teams playing good defense and a Raiders team suffering with penalties. The third quarter closed with another field goal by Kaeding, nearing the Chargers on the scoreboard 21-6. The fourth quarter saw the Chargers trying to mount a comeback with a 4-yard TD pass from Philip Rivers to Antonio Gates; but it was promptly closed by a 7-play, 62yard drive that ended with a Darren McFadden 7yard rushing TD. With the win, both Raiders and Chargers reached a 6-6 record, and still stayed behind the Chiefs by 2 games for the division lead. The Raiders also swept the season series from the Chargers for the first time since 2001, and snapped a seven-game losing streak at Qualcomm Stadium. The Raiders were favored by an impeding Chargers offense who struggled to control the game clock and establish a ground game; while the Raiders struggled with penalties and defensive miscues, mostly on the secondary.

Panfilo de Narvaez had been sent by Governor Velazquez from Cuba to kill or capture Cortes, who had defied Velazquez's orders. :281 Leaving his "least reliable soldiers" under the command of the headstrong Pedro de Alvarado to guard Moctezuma, Cortes set out against De Narvaez, who had advanced onto Cempoala. Cortes surprised his antagonist with a night attack, during which his men wounded Narvaez in the eye and took him prisoner.

Question: Write an article that answers the following question: In what year did the Maratha Empire recapture its' lost lands?
Article: The Mughal power in northern India had been declining since the reign of Aurangzeb, who died in 1707. In 1751-52, the Ahamdiya treaty was signed between the Marathas and Mughals, when Balaji Bajirao was the Peshwa of the Maratha Empire. Through this treaty, the Marathas controlled large parts of India from their capital at Pune and Mughal rule was restricted only to Delhi . Marathas were now straining to expand their area of control towards the Northwest of India. Durrani sacked the Mughal capital and withdrew with the booty he coveted. To counter the Afghans, Peshwa Balaji Bajirao sent Raghunathrao. He succeeded in ousting Timur Shah and his court from India and brought northwest of India up to Peshawar under Maratha rule. Thus, upon his return to Kandahar in 1757, Durrani chose to return to India and confront the Maratha forces to regain northwestern part of the subcontinent. In 1761, Durrani set out on his campaign to win back lost territories. The early skirmishes ended in victory for the Afghans against the Maratha garrisons in northwest India. By 1759, Durrani and his army had reached Lahore and were poised to confront the Marathas. By 1760, the Maratha groups had coalesced into a big enough army under the command of Sadashivrao Bhau. Once again, Panipat was the scene of a battle for control of northern India. The Third battle of Panipat was fought between Durrani's Afghan forces and the Maratha forces in January 1761, and resulted in a decisive Durrani victory. This brought Punjab till north of Sutlej river under Afghan control. Ahmad Shah Durrani vacated Delhi soon after the battle. But the victory did not last, 10 years later the Maratha Empire recaptured lost lands.
