| Del Piero scores late penalty as Juventus draws 1-1 at Catania
MILAN, Italy (AP) -Captain Alessandro Del Piero's last-minute penalty helped Juventus draw Catania 1-1 in the Serie A on Saturday. After falling behind in the first half, Juventus coach Claudio Ranieri put on four strikers and Catania defender Marco Biagianti brought down Del Piero from behind at the top of the area in the 90th minute as the Bianconeri scrambled for an equalizer. "We put everything into it and we were pretty satisfied at the end," Del Piero said. Gionatha Spinesi put Catania ahead in the 15th minute, flicking in a pass from Giuseppe Mascara in a play that may have been offside. Juventus and Italy goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon froze on Spinesi's close-range shot. "I think they were encouraged by the fans; they started really strong," Del Piero said.
Assaults by Masked Man Instill Alarm
When it opened two decades ago, the Prince George's County Correctional Center was heralded as a "new generation" jail. Corrections officials from across the country dropped in to tour it. In 1994, President Bill Clinton chose it as his stage to announce a national drug policy. .
Members' Tips: Potty Training (Part 2)
Perhaps if you have younger children who are OK with using the toilet, you could encourage them to (at home anyway) go with your child so that they start to understand that there is nothing scary about sitting on the toilet etc. Find an excuse for them to enter the bathroom whilst one of the other children is in there (if they don’t mind) to fetch a towel....anything. If perhaps they see that another child isn’t scared maybe they’ll lose some of their fear too.
Silkylady Sound Effects
The only way to get my daughter to perform was to sit on the floor by her potty and make a game of it saying daft things like "squeeze it out" and making funny straining noises which she copied and thought was great. Also getting her to say what sound it made when it dropped in the potty "wees go tinkle tinkle poos go plop".
As commutes worsen, drivers seek solutions
Sometime during the postwar economic boom, two-car households became the norm. A commuting format became well-established — suburbanites got into their cars at their houses and out of them again at their offices. Life was simple. Today, however, life is dramatically less simple. Gasoline is more costly, commutes are longer (in time if not in distance), traffic congestion is worse and in some cities are even charging commuters for driving in them during the busy morning hours. The solutions to today's commuting challenges are many and varied, and the result will be that commuting will no longer be the monolithic point-A-to-point-B solo drive in a car that it has been over the past half-century. .
Gaza’s Factions Take Their Fight into the School Playgrounds
The armed men who assaulted eight-year-old Shahab al-Akhras on a street corner in Rafah covered their faces with balaclavas. Shahab, who is small for his age, was wearing the hata, the black-and-white checked scarf associated with Fatah - the party once led by the late Yasser Arafat. The four men who pushed him into a corner and thrashed his hands on new year's day were wearing the uniforms of Hamas's Executive Force, these days Fatah's deadly rival. 'They took off my shoes and put them on the scarf and stamped on them,' he said. 'Then they told me to put out my arms in front of me and beat me with a stick. They said that if they saw me wearing the scarf again they would shoot me in the legs. I hate them!' The internal struggle between the Islamist Hamas and the Fatah movement in Gaza - which Hamas thought it had won after three days of fighting last June - has resurfaced.
