  1. Go To The Mat To Keep Olympic Wrestling

    Ever wrestle? We speak of formal amateur wrestling, as mostly seen on the high school and college levels. If you have, you know it is one of the most demanding of sports, a total, all-out commitment of body and mind. It requires discipline and skill, it...

  2. Watch novelist Ben Percy perplex Steve Harvey on the 'Today' show

    In publishing, landing a spot on the "Today" show has traditionally been thought of as a publicity holy grail. Is that why Benjamin Percy wore a pregnancy suit to get there? And did he have any idea just how strange the experience would be? Not...

  4. Marathon plays stand the test of time

  5. Mark Twain House and Museum in Hartford Featuring the Work of Graphic Novelist Mark Siegel

    Writing is frustrating work. Add pictures to the story, and watch your hair get even whiter with each passing pronoun. Author/illustrator Mark Siegel survived the process of creating a graphic novel, <em>Sailor Twain</em>, and he'll be appearing at (naturally) Hartford's Mark Twain House and Museum on Oct. 6 to talk about it. It's a serial work, published incrementally online over the course of weeks and months. But now the whole work &mdash; set in moody charcoal tones (pictured) and blending Victorian-era styles with progressive science fiction &mdash; will be released in paperback form this fall. It's received raves from &mdash; get this &mdash; author John Irving and MSNBC personality Rachel Maddow. Head to the Twain House for some art-fiction hybrid action.

  7. Tottenham, Liverpool fans relish chance to see favorite teams

    John Irving came to M&amp;T Bank Stadium from his home in New Jersey Saturday to see his favorite soccer team, Tottenham Hotspur, play in person for the first time. But Irving, whose allegiance is derived from the fact his father grew up near the team's base in North London, felt as if he could have been in Liverpool.
