James Lambert, 73, died on June 25, a day after seven teenagers beat him with objects including a traffic cone, according to police. “I’m sick to my stomach over this,” Lambert’s niece, 63-year-old Tania Stephens, said in an interview with the New York Post that was published Saturday. “We all can’t stop crying.

Alvarez, who first impressed readers in 1991 with “How the Garcia Girls Lost Their Accents,” has returned to the Dominican Republic to bring the story of the famous Mirabal sisters to a wider audience. The author was just 10 when her own family fled the country, where her father had been part of a botched plot against the Trujillo dictatorship.

Website FandomSpot.com has launched the first “Hire a Holiday Armadillo” service to educate people on various cultures and faiths.

Seattle manager Lloyd McClendon stopped short of guaranteeing an Opening Day roster spot for Walker, but by recently saying, “I'd be very disappointed if he's not [in the rotation],” it seems obvious that Walker will be given a long leash. And the 21-year-old righty has the stuff to deliver. During his three-start stint at the end of last season, Walker posted a 3.60/1.00 line.
