HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) — Dropped onto Connecticut inmates' food trays in recent days was a concoction called chilitos, consisting of a cup of meatless chili mix, one slice of cheese, brown rice, refried beans and two tortillas, along with a half-cup of pudding and an 8-ounce drink. Not bad for a jailhouse lunch, maybe. But lean ground beef, whole pieces of chicken and extra fresh fruit and vegetables could soon be on the menu under a budget proposal from Democratic Gov. Dannel P. Malloy that bucks a national trend toward spending less... Читать дальше...

A man once sworn to protect the public from crime was accused Wednesday of living a double life terrorizing suburban neighborhoods at night, becoming one of California’s most feared serial killers and rapists in the 1970s and ’80s before leaving a cold trail that baffled investigators for more than three decades. Former police officer Joseph James DeAngelo, 72, was arrested at his home after DNA linked him to crimes attributed to the so-called Golden State Killer.

In his letter titled ‘Safe cycling’ (April 20), George Debono refers to my letter ‘Proficient cyclists’ (April 12). Let us agree that cycling in traffic is safest when the cyclist matches the speed of other road vehicles. We also agree that most cyclists are not comfortable travelling over 25km/h and it is only “seasoned, well-trained cyclists and sports cyclists”, as aptly stated by Debono, who travel at higher speeds. The only logical conclusion is that only proficient cyclists should be using major roads. Читать дальше...

CLEVELAND (AP) — The Indiana Pacers felt cheated — by LeBron James and the officials. Moments before James beat them with a game-winning, step-back 3-pointer at the buzzer, the Pacers were poised to take the lead in Game 5 on Victor Oladipo's driving layup. However, James came from behind and blocked Oladipo's shot, which appeared to hit the backboard before Cleveland's star touched it — a goaltending violation. Instead, there was no call and James then dropped his 28-footer over Thaddeus Young to... Читать дальше...

BOSTON (AP) — He was once called the most likely American in the 20th century to become president. But Robert F. Kennedy's bid to follow in his older brother's footsteps as commander in chief was cut short the same way John F. Kennedy's White House term was: by a man with a gun.
