Jordan Bowden out against Vanderbilt with illness

Jordan Bowden will not play Wednesday against Vanderbilt as the freshman guard is still battling what’s been described as the flu.

The freshman guard from Knoxville’s Carter High School started in Tennessee’s 90-70 win over Missouri on Saturday, but played only one minute before checking out of the game for good.

"He was really sick and wanted to try to play the other night,” Tennessee head coach Rick Barnes said on Monday, “couldn't do it."

Tennessee (15-12, 7-7 SEC) hosts Vanderbilt (14-13, 7-7) at 6:30 p.m. (TV: SEC Network) at Thompson-Boling Arena as both teams fight to keep their NCAA tournament hopes alive.

My three dads – my first loves

Most of us have one father but Sophie Ellis had three, who were life-giving and life-affirming in different ways. She pays tribute to the wonderful men who made her I turn 30 in June. Among the list of things I feel I can boast about – running a marathon, raising a healthy, happy baby girl, mastering shorthand – the fact that I’ve had three dads feels like a particular privilege. The fact that I’ve lost three dads, less so. Let me explain. My biological father, Derek, had ginger hair and drank cherry cola. He liked British pubs and American baseball. I’m not so sure he wanted children, but he got one anyway and I’m told he liked me very much. Continue.......

Sally Faulkner's former husband claims he took children to Lebanon due to her 'relationships'

Ali al-Amin’s claim comes as Channel Nine defends involvement in ‘story profoundly in public interest’ The estranged husband of Brisbane woman Sally Faulkner says he took their two children to Lebanon because he “just wasn’t OK” with her new partner being prominent in their lives. Ali al-Amin has been speaking to Australian media as Channel Nine explicitly defended its involvement in “a story that not only is profoundly in the public interest but also one the public is interested in”. Nine also announced it would fully investigate how four of its staff came to be arrested in Beirut, charged with kidnapping and finally released on Wednesday, apparently in exchange for compensation .

Dilma Rousseff in New York declares no grounds for impeachment

Embattled Brazilian president tells foreign media she is the innocent victim of a ‘coup’ and will only leave office if voted out by the electorate The Brazilian president, Dilma Rousseff , has told journalists in New York there is “no legal foundation” for her impeachment as she took her fight for political survival into the international ring. After losing a lower house vote that puts her just weeks away from being ejected from office, on Friday Rousseff repeated claims that she was the innocent victim of a “coup” and said she would only give up the fight if the electorate voted against her. Rousseff’s appeal to the Guardian and a handful of other foreign news organisations appears to be a last-ditch attempt to win away after losing catastrophically at home. As a result of recession, political upheaval and a huge corruption scandal, her government is deeply unpopular with the Brazilian media, the country’s Congress and in public opinion. But Rousseff has not been charged with an...
