...Zizkov was an organism, beer would be its blood and Borivojova Street its main artery?it's home to about two dozen bars and pubs. The sounds of live rock, punk, blues, country and Old Prague accordion pour from open windows on summer nights. And while the street still hosts old-school carpenters and hardware stores, a variety of new businesses have arrived, including a hot pink apartment building turned three-star hotel, a halal butcher and a yoga studio...
...Empire crusaders on Vitkov Hill. A granite equestrian statue of Zizka sits at the top of the hill; at the foot is the pub U vystrelenyho oka (The Shot-Out Eye)?the name, of course, a tribute to Zizka's missing orb. The slightly scruffy venue offers weekly live rock, blues and alternative music and typical Czech pub food?that is, everything is bread crumbed and fried. Try Hermelin, a Czech version of Camembert cheese pickled in oil with garlic and hot peppers. The beer is cheap and plentiful?indeed, nothing costs more than $3.50. 3 U bozich bojovniku...

Sifers took a feed from classmate and linemate Liza Solley and streaked across the blue line before uncorking the game-winner that eluded Golden Knights netminder Kira Hurley. "She's a rock star," Stone said of Sifers. "She ripped it. We call her Snipes. It's kind of a joke, but that was a snipe today. That last shot was a great shot." Sifers, an incredibly fast and well-conditioned skater, became a prime candidate to notch the golden goal...
...this speculation is spurring a new burst of scholarship about locations all over the Americas. The Topper site in South Carolina, Cactus Hill in Virginia, Pennsylvania's Meadowcroft, the Taima-Taima waterhole in Venezuela and several rock shelters in Brazil all seem to be pre-Clovis. Dillehay has found several sites in Peru that date to between 10,000 and 11,000 years B.P. but have no apparent links to the Clovis culture. "They show a great deal of diversity," he says, "suggesting different early sources of cultural development in the highlands and along the coast...
