Parish went up for the ball with McHale as both had inside position, and Kevin appeared to have his left hand on it as his body was moved forward from the Thompson push. Thompson then hit McHale’s hand to knock the ball out of his grasp and out of bounds to the left.

The purpose of the F.B.I.’s Joint Terrorism Task Force is to investigate terrorism and share information from those investigations so that the law-enforcement community is able to identify the most dangerous individuals. State and local law-enforcement “fusion centers” were set up with this same goal in mind. There are perhaps half a dozen information-sharing and threat-assessment networks available to law enforcement. In an alternate universe, these networks would function efficiently. In reality, German says, “far-right violence remains a blind spot. It just isn’t properly tracked or understood.”

As the fifth option in the star-studded Celtic starting lineup, he was stifled and often neglected, and in response Danny occasionally forced bad shots.

Also new in recent years, Anderson and her fellow nurses have worked to put together kits for teachers to use in an emergency situation such as a school shooting. The kits contain crackers, water, portable toilets, flashlights, tourniquets in case of injuries and warming blankets in case the heat goes out or students have to spend an extended period of time outside in the winter.

Al Copeland Sr. pounced on life like a pro wrestler off the top turnbuckle. He drew plenty of critics, but his successes and excesses and showmanship made him one of the indelible characters of modern New Orleans.

Then Johnson smartly changed his tone from critical to encouraging. "Come on fellas, plenty of time," he enthused. It was a prescient move that a less mature Johnson would not have been able to make in 1984, when his gaffes helped cost LA a thrilling seven-game championship series loss to the Celtics and Larry Legend.

As a youngster, getting the stand on the Christmas tree was always a traumatic experience. My father was in charge of the heavy lifting, and I was tasked with fitting the unnecessarily complicated stand on the trunk and securing it. There’s nothing like getting into the holiday spirit with a little bit of anger.

On Friday (July 6), the Al Copeland Foundation hosts its third annual Chicken Jam, a fundraiser for the LSU cancer center that this year expands to a much larger venue at the UNO Lakefront Arena (see event details here).

The ability to voluntarily regulate attention is more developed in humans than other species. As William James, the great psychologist, wrote in 1890, “The faculty of voluntarily bringing back a wandering attention, over and over again, is the very root of judgment, character, and will.”

Late-model Corvettes employ torque-to-yield fasteners primarily in engines for greater consistency. Torque-to-yield is a calculated bolt stretch/tension process where the bolt is tightened to a pre-determined torque value, then, tightened further a specific number of degrees. When torque-to-yield fasteners are removed they may not be used again. You throw them away and buy new ones. If you opt for ARP fasteners they are not torque-to-yield and are tightened to a specific torque value.

"It gave me joy knowing that my sister Elizabeth and I apparently thought a little bit alike," Brinkley said. "I hoped then that someday that (the cousins) would be part of our big, beautiful culture."
