...team free of back-stabbing members. In fact, Cahow noted about Ruggiero’s performance that “She wasn’t there to make enemies and wasn’t willing to sell her soul,” which may be why she flew under the radar for much of the season. When producers urged her to go after a teammate in the final boardroom scene, Ruggiero couldn’t bring herself to do so without knowing who had sold the least—and so took the blame for a faulty concept.While Ruggiero might...
...President flew from Washington to Blacksburg in southwestern Virginia for the convocation at Virginia Tech on Tuesday, assuming the role of "comforter-in-chief" in the words of aides whose nostalgia for his post-9/11 popularity was a little too evident under the circumstances.

I was following tens of thousands of Zimbabweans who, as the economy collapsed, headed to the gold-mining region of Matabeleland, hoping...
...stories of numerous veterans, from farm-worker families in South Texas to famed members of the so-called Aztec Eagles, the 300-member Escuadron 201. The Eagles were an all-Mexican expeditionary force, organized after Mexico declared war on the Axis powers, which trained in the U.S. and then flew combat missions in the Philippines. Only five members of the squadron are still alive and one of them, pilot Reynaldo Perez Gallardo, nicknamed "Pancho Pistolar" after a Disney character, tells his story on the website. For critics of Ken Burns' latest effort, the point is that stories such as those...
