The fries are fresh cut by hand and the Wurlitzer jukebox really dates from the days when Elvis was a rising star instead of a risen rock 'n' roll martyr.

"I thought it was safe."Then, in the old Apollo Theater on West 42nd Street, Bilbao made the mistake of placing her pocketbook on the empty seat next to hers, making it an easy mark for the thief who lay in wait until the lights went down.So began a curious tale, extending nearly 40 years, for Bilbao and dozens of others who were victimized by a petty criminal (or criminals)

Should corporations get a massive tax discount for bringing the $1.4 trillion they've stashed in overseas tax havens back to America? An army of corporate lobbyists certainly think so. They are asking Congress for a tax holiday allowing corporations to pay just a 5 percent to 8 percent tax rate on profits they've kept offshore instead of the normal 35 percent. That's a lucrative reward for companies that have shirked their tax responsibility. Sadly, it's happened before. Congress last gave corporate America a "repatriation holiday" in 2004.

An man who police say is a member of a Baltimore drug organization tied to a rash of violence across the city has been charged with attempted murder after police say he dumped scalding water on a 71-year-old man and a 51-year-old woman to punish them for stealing drugs.

On Feb. 17, the dealers, identified as 28-year-old Eric Rich and a second man who has not been arrested, checked on the stash and believed the amount to be short.
