[Bill Williamson] said that much of his early thinking was profoundly influenced by a man named Paddy, who was a friend of his aunt and a strong Irish republican. Williamson never knew if Paddy had been personally involved in political violence in Ireland, but he vigorously promoted the republican cause and found a receptive audience in young Williamson. "He had a sort of a hatred, or a dislike, of imperialism in general and in particular that of the British Empire, which he thought was enslaving the world," Williamson said. "I remember when I was a very young boy him pointing to the Union Jack flying over some building or the other, and he says, 'Look at that flag, boy. Wherever that flag flies there's misery and oppression.' And that had a great effect on me.

OK, there's really no reason for [Greg Biffle]'s diehards to renew that passport and follow him to Spain or China. Biffle is staying put in the States -- and he's getting closer to staying put with Roush Fenway Racing.
That's what I've been working on and still working on, and I think we're making some progress on that," he said. "The ball is sort of in their court right now and we'll just wait and see.
Biffle is coming off a second-place finish last week at the Coca-Cola 600, his fourth top-five finish in a season where he's yet to drive his way into Victory Lane. The finish also snapped a skid of middling results that knocked him from second in points all the way to 11th in the Chase standings. Sure, the result was strong, but it was just another week where Biffle failed to capture ...

[Fernando Torres] is a great player," Spain coach Luis Aragones said. "He can go anywhere. Why not? He really has extra speed, he knows how to dribble and we always tell him he is so young he can learn everything and be one of the best players in the world -- no doubt.
"We had some good matches, but the Spaniards were constantly good throughout the tournament and played at a very high level," he said. "So they deserve to be champions."
"I hope this is good for football as well as for Spain, because the best team won," Torres said. "This is not always the case. We are doubly happy."

Valencia's City of Arts and Sciences is set within the Turia Gardens, a drained river renovated into a park in the 1990s, and [Santiago Calatrava]'s next work will be here also, a 70-metre-tall public square to be completed in 2008. "Agora" will be dwarfed only by the neighbouring "Three Towers," three skyscrapers ranging from 220 to 300 metres, with the latter 81-storey building to be the tallest in Europe.
Consorcio 2007 -- a partnership between the mayor's office, the regional and national governments and private firms -- has spent $680 million on infrastructure surrounding the marina, which includes Port America's Cup, the docklands and some of the city's oldest neighbourhoods. And it's only a fragment of the $2.65 billion spent since works initially began in 2003.
Even though the A...
