...James Trapp of the Atlanta Falcons, who was a defensive back on the 2000 Baltimore Ravens championship team. They aren't paid team salaries but usually fall under the managerial rubric of "player development." (At least one, the chaplain for the Chicago Bears, has an office in the training complex.) Financial support comes from their outside work, and players are free to contribute to those ministries, if they choose. The chaplains say the strong faith of many of the coaches and owners creates favorable working conditions, allowing them a wide degree of access...

At one point, they find themselves on the stage of a convention room by the catering table, when one of the organizers opens the curtains and comments, “It’s a man.

The Allston project, with its new science complex, for example, was hailed as visionary—until the financial crisis put it on hold. Even the Boston Globe editorial admits the complex “will transform Allston” when it can be built. Such decisions are easy to call foolish after the fact, but they were sensibly...
...plans to seize control of the Muslim holy sites - a charge vehemently denied by Israel, but one that has nonetheless roused outrage across the Muslim world. In response to feared protests, Israel has barred Palestinians under 50 or not resident in Jerusalem from access to the al-Aqsa Mosque complex on the Temple Mount - known to Muslims as the Noble Sanctuary - and that, in turn, has only heightened Muslim suspicions over Israel's intentions.
