...stretch," says Gasol, Bryant's teammate with the Los Angeles Lakers. "They did what they were supposed to do." Namely, feed Bryant the ball. But unlike past years, Kobe didn't hog it every time.

In a period of months, my district, laid out 700 years ago during the Ming dynasty, saw lanes repaved, streetlights installed, sewage lines overhauled, roofs repaired, doors painted, windows replaced and rooms that had been haphazardly added onto old homes demolished and rebuilt in a traditional style.
