Russ Smith is hot one game and ice-cold the next, constantly frustrating his coach, but that hasn't prevented Louisville from hitting its stride late in the season. They sat next to each other at a news conference, the coach and the sophomore guard who drives him crazy, two native New Yorkers intent on returning the University of Louisville to basketball prominence.
With a master plan now in place, suitors interested in the Old Blacksburg Middle School property are emerging as the school building there is being demolished. An Ohio development company is scheduled to meet with town and county officials today about the prominent site off Main Street. The Columbus-based Edwards Companies places a strong focus on student housing. While it's not clear if student housing will be proposed during the meeting, the master plan frowns on such a use.
The Board of Finance's action Monday to keep the three-times failed Board of Education budget "as is" and send it back to voters for a fourth referendum vote is not allowed under the town charter. That information was revealed during Tuesday's Board of Selectmen meeting, where First Selectman Kurt Miller apologized for the oversight and for not bringing the clause in Section 12.3 of the town charter to the Finance Board's attention when it voted Monday night.
NEW YORK - The image was too gruesome for anyone to process, which accounted for the dead-cold silence in the ballpark. The Yankees and Tigers, the fans and even the umpires watched in shock as Derek Jeter was helped off the field in the 12th inning Saturday night. The game's outcome now is almost secondary to the severity of Jeter's injury, which manager Joe Girardi said is a left ankle fracture -- and adding that the captain is done for the postseason. The Yankees lost the opener of the AL Championship Series, 6-4, but the competitive balance between these two teams is altered radically without Jeter.
Most of us associate rice with China, Japan and India, but Italian rice is some of the world's best. Especially in Italy's northern regions, where it has grown since medieval times, rice is a close second to pasta as Italy's favorite choice for the first course. The reputation of Italian rice is of long standing. Thomas Jefferson, while on diplomatic duty in France in 1787, made a special trip to Piedmont to secure some Italian rice in the husk to bring back to American planters. He smuggled the grains out in his coat pockets, a crime then punishable by death.
Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist was a curious man. He could be courtly and gracious, elegant in argument and a brilliant advocate. He also was a ferocious adversary, a relentless conservative and, as John A. Jenkins makes clear in his new biography, a determined partisan. One sample of his paradox: Rehnquist was a respected leader of the court, appreciated even by those whose politics he abhorred, and yet he secured his position in part by perjuring himself at his confirmation hearing.
King Juan Carlos is widely valued in business circles for acting as a deal maker and economic envoy for his country, but how he has amassed his substantial personal wealth remains secret. Spaniards deep in a severe economic slump are questioning their king, long revered for his role in bringing democracy to the nation but now scrutinized for his deluxe lifestyle, opaque fortune and new foray into sensitive political territory.
James T. Hackemer's fatal ride on a Darien Lake roller coaster last week delivered him instantly into a place he had seen before, a pastor told about 400 mourners Thursday. Hackemer had earlier experienced a heavenly vision during a helicopter ride after his legs and left hip were blown apart by a roadside bomb 3 1/2 years ago in Iraq, the Rev. Clifford Waugh told those gathered inside and outside a country church in Gowanda who came to remember the 29-year-old former Army sergeant.
The failure to act against some autocratic leaders challenged by the Arab Spring is emboldening critics who see the court as part of a deeply undemocratic international order. It was exactly the kind of case the International Criminal Court was created to investigate: The autocratic leader of Yemen was clinging to power, turning his security forces' guns on unarmed protesters. Hundreds were left dead, and many more were maimed.
