2008-08-15 Running Notebook: Couple who runs together stays together Sports Houston Chronicle
The couple are quick to point out that a nice dinner or even a cruise, Karens first choice, would have been more traditional ways to celebrate. But running up Grandfather Mountain, each wearing custom T-shirts with their names and 35th on our 35th on the backs, was just as fun, they say.
Along the way, they joined the Houston Striders running club and, in June, became members of the 50 States Marathon Club too. This weekend, theyll attempt the Colorados Pikes Peak Marathon, widely considered the toughest in the nation.

Is the size of a house. It has a safety system that is supposed to deflate it in bad weather, but it did not work on this occasion. Juri Steiner, the director of the center, told Agence France-Presse that a sudden gust of wind carried it 650 feet before it fell to the ground, landing in the yard of the childrens home. The accident happened on , but the details only emerged yesterday. Steiner said McCarthy had not yet been contacted and the museum was not sure if the piece would be put back on display.

2008-08-11 Huge fire destroys mansion as crews run low on water
A fire with 40-foot flames destroyed a multimillion-dollar mansion in the Petes Mountain area Saturday after firefighters came close to running out of water.

Its been a season-long enigma. Seven times, the Phils have been shut out in 2008. Three times, Hamels has been the losing pitcher in those games, an egregious lack of run support for their franchise pitcher. He has been an equal opportunity victim, dropping -0 and 3-0 games dating back to his first start of the year on April 2. But its not like the Phils have scored a lot in his other defeats; altogether, the team that averages over five runs per game has provided only 15 runs in his eight defeats, certainly no way to treat a young ace with a very respectable 3. 35 ERA.
