The Associated Press — Fri, 24 May 2013 8:05:06 +0000

INDIANAPOLIS — Katherine Legge didn't know she'd have a shot at the Indianapolis 500 until it was time to qualify, when Schmidt Peterson Motorsports decided to put her in its second car at the last second. Pippa Mann chatted with tire makers, dropped in on the folks from the television networks and even tried to get cozy with engine maker Honda in the hopes of landing a ride. Both of them have overcome long odds to join Ana Beatriz and Simona de Silvestro in Sunday's 33-car [...]

Movie review: ‘Fast & Furious 6’

By Ed Symkus — Fri, 24 May 2013 2:01:00 +0000

You can have a great time getting caught up in the outrageous action of the sixth entry in this money-making machine of a series without having seen any of the previous films. But you wouldn�t understand the nuances of the characters and their interrelationships, you wouldn�t get why they all keep talking about the importance of family, and you wouldn�t really know who you�re supposed to be rooting for, or why.

Today, he lives on Cape Cod, is still in the real estate biz, is the father to two teenagers and he has just seen his first book published.
�Dear Life, You Suck� isn�t standard fare in any genre, let alone young adult (YA). The main character, Cricket Cherpin, is a young man growing up without parents in a Catholic group [...]

President Obama addressed many important issues in his speech Thursday (transcript here), some of which I’m writing about for Sunday’s column. �The speech also included some remarkable political theater involving Obama and a protester in the audience.
