Balestracci added a second interception return for a touchdown in the fourth quarter, picking off a Greg Smith pass thrown right at him and racing untouched 53 yards...
...obviously means well, tackling tough political and social issues such as homosexuality in "Beautiful Boy" and war in "On D-Day," but even the best intentions do not make for great lyrics. And regrettably, the songs on Never Enough Time stumble through incoherent, seemingly random lines like "A rock thrown through/The rear window/They took my socks" in "Smash the Car" and "I keep trying to clean my room/There's a coffee cup in my underwear drawer" in the title track.

Opposition leaders say the turnout in Sunday's election was as low as 5 percent of the electorate. The popular opposition leader Alassane Ouattara is leading calls for a new poll. An attempt by former president Henri Konan Bédié to exclude Outtara from the last election had prompted General Gueï's coup, but the general had then held...
