Dryden board votes to restore the Tuttle barn
Using a borrowed dollhouse-style scaled model of a five-bay barn, Slater demonstrated his vision for the building, which involved saving the original hand-hewn wooden beam framework of the building as well as its distinctive metal roof, and adding two loft spaces and interior staircases. There would be no restrooms nor heating, but the building could be used for occasional gatherings and storage, he said. [Read more]

Walcott right to put country before club
A big-money move to Spurs was followed by a loss of form and fitness and the England caps dried up. The midfielder was greeted with a chorus of boos when he next represented England and is now well down the pecking order for those vying for the right-sided slot in Capello?s side, well behind the current incumbent Walcott. Perhaps the best chance he will have of representing his country at a major tournament has already passed. [Read more]

It’s been a while since talk first began about Delhi’s first Hard Rock Café (HRC) that opened on Wednesday night on the first floor of DLF Place Mall in Saket, spread across over 7000 sq ft. True to its rock image, on night one, the Café swung to classics like Pink Floyd’s Wish you were here and Dire Straits’ Sultans of swing, quintessential Hard Rock numbers. “It took us time to find the right location in Delhi, hence the delay,” said Amit Keswani, vice-president, sales and marketing of JSM Cor [Read more]

Forgotten Artists: Kenny Price (1931-1987)
Fans of the long running television show Hee Haw may remember Kenny Price. He played various roles in Hee Haw?s skits, including the over-protective father of a pretty teenage daughter (whose suitor, Billy Bob, did not meet his approval), a backwater sheriff and a country bumpkin lounging on the lawn in front of the general store. He also appeared in two of the regular musical spots, the “Gloom Despair and Agony” snippets and the glorious Hee Haw Gospel Quartet segment wherein Kenny, [Read more]
