Truck bomb levels Baghdad bridge
---------------------------------------------
A suicide truck bomb exploded on a major bridge in Baghdad early
Thursday, collapsing the steel structure and sending cars tumbling into
the Tigris River below, police and witnesses said. At least 10 people
were killed.
New home in old age
---------------------------------------------
A new migration of seniors are compelled, usually by medical problems,
to leave their longtime surroundings to live near their adult children.
Such a move can be even more emotionally and logistically complex than
those facing a teenager decamping for college.
In end, the accusing fingers were pointed at prosecutor
---------------------------------------------
It is rare for a state attorney general to publicly chastise a local
district attorney as a "rogue prosecutor," as North Carolina Attorney
General Roy Cooper did Wednesday. Durham County District Attorney
Michael Nifong's handling of the Duke lacrosse team rape case is
regarded as extraordinary by prosecutors and defense attorneys alike.
