[John Terry] -- the Chelsea defender and England captain since 2006 -- arrived at [Capello]'s Wembley office around 3:30 p.m. local time. A day earlier, the England manager had flown into London from his Switzerland home, where he had been recovering from minor knee surgery. He hadn't planned on meeting with Terry, and was merely stopping over en route to Sunday's Euro 2012 draw in Warsaw. But he was compelled to sit down with his captain when the details of Terry's personal life began to threaten the stability of the entire team. If anyone stands to benefit from the destruction of John Terry's reputation and subsequent dismissal as England captain, it's reigning Premier League champions Manchester United. Currently two points ahead of the Red Devils, Terry's Chelsea may find themselves...

That professional affinity is not confined to Winnipeg. In London, England, on Fleet Street, there was a private club that publicly recognized the affinity between the two professions -- The Wig and Pen -- which was open exclusively to lawyers and journalists and rivalled the fabled London Press Club in popularity. Tales from the Underworld and Other Stories, a compilation of true stories and anecdotes by veteran Winnipeg lawyers [Norm Larsen] and [Roland Penner] (a former NDP attorney general) -- has an obvious appeal for journalists, but it has a much wider attraction for everyone else as well. If you read the Winnipeg newspapers with any regularity, if you had read them at all over the last 40 years or so, you will recognize most of the names in this book. This is, plain and simple, ...

The conditions for today's contest in New England could work against the Chargers. I know for a fact that most of San Diego's athletes prefer to play in tank tops and flip-flops. [Igor Olshansky] and his abnormal brain recently remarked of the Patriots: "Who? New England? Seriously, I mean, they're more worried than we are. [Shawne Merriman] does sack dances. Olshansky strikes a bow-and-flex pose, [Rivers] once yelled "Shut up!" to his home crowd. They are real charmers, these Chargers.

Mieville, England's enfant terrible of urban SF/fantasy (King Rat, Perdido Street Station), is not so casually slotted. For he's crafted a true genre-bending parable that is at once mythical, deeply allegorical, deliciously subversive -- and a decent cop procedural to boot. Warning: All fiction requires a suspension of disbelief. It's the quid pro quo of the art form, and SF/fantasy is its poster child. Moreover, Mieville is merciless in this regard. If you're constantly trying to figure out how such an implausible scenario might actually work, it's fatally distracting. [Adrian McKinty]'s wayward cop, Mercado, is a keeper. If he's smart, he'll warp in from Australia again and set a reprise for her in post-Fidel Cuba.

I have clients in England, France, the United States, Iceland and Germany," says [Julius Morry]. "They call me because they can't find anyone else who can do this. I have worked on some beautiful pieces over the years. "She told me that as a child, during the Second World War in Germany, her family's house was bombed and, after the fires went out, they went back into the rubble to salvage what they could, and she found the candelabra, which was highly treasured by her family," explains Morry. "So I asked her to tell me about it and I made a sketch and created the missing pieces from scratch. When she came to pick it up, she was so happy she cried." "I get quite a few calls from husbands who have broken one of their wife's favourite items," he says, chuckling. "They say, 'Don't call th...

[Gerald Blanchard] stopped in England on his way home and met again with "The Boss" to give him his "cut." Blanchard cleared C$65,000 while the man kept the rest, she said. It was to fuel terrorism," said [Sheila Leinburd]. She said Blanchard told his associates how "The Boss" was sending money to Kurdish fighters in northern Iraq, court was told. "We have no evidence (Blanchard) is a terrorist. But he is an opportunist," said [Tom Legge], adding the scope of his crimes was "something we've never seen before.

In 1901, the city's proximity to England led Guglielmo Marconi to choose North America's oldest city to set up the base where he would successfully receive the world's first transatlantic wireless transmission. Appropriately enough, he located his experiment inside an abandoned fever and diphtheria hospital at a place called Signal Hill, a summit guarding St. John's harbour that's served as an observation site since the early 1700s. Newfoundland is well known as "The Rock," and visitors to the centre don't have to use much imagination to explore Newfoundland and Labrador's rich geological heritage. They are literally surrounded by it. The solid rock walls are just a touch away, cleverly incorporated into the centre's wide-ranging displays and exhibits. The displays help visitors travel ...

I am pretty sure most of you, even if you try to deny it, have already heard about this story. If you do a Google search for the key words of this item (helpful tip: one of the words is "picnic" and another is "table") you will get at least 472,000 hits, which makes an important statement about our society. (And if anyone knows what that is, please e-mail me. Thank you.) So how did police manage to catch our perpetrator? That's an excellent question. It seems an alert neighbour spotted him "in flagrante delicto" (Latin for "stop that or you will go blind") and took immediate action. Another recent case was the Polish worker who was fired by a hospital in England after he was caught "in the act" with a vacuum cleaner. According to news reports, the worker said he was just vacuuming his...
