CARSON, Calif. – The football rested on the Chargers 36-yard line in the final seconds of the first half Sunday, sitting there almost as a gift for Ifeadi Odenigbo on a play on which his hands had already been one of six sets that had touched it. Los Angeles center Scott Quessenberry's hands were first, as he snapped the ball to quarterback Philip Rivers with the Chargers pursuing a go-ahead score before halftime. Rivers stepped back to avoid Scott Tevi, the tackle Danielle Hunter had f...

WASHINGTON – As the House prepared to make President Donald Trump only the third president in U.S. history to be impeached, the Senate's top Democrat on Sunday laid out a detailed proposal for a Senate trial "in which all of the facts can be considered fully and fairly" - including subpoenas for documents the White House has withheld and witnesses it has prevented from testifying. Minority Leader Chuck Schumer presented the proposal in a letter to his Republican counterpart, Sen. Mitch M...

Seeking an antidote to these discomforts, one that both tranquilized and energized, Native Americans settled along lakes and rivers. Not for nothing did Sleepy Eye, the Dakota chief, insist that 10 miles along both sides of the Minnesota River be reserved for his people when in 1851 he signed the Treaty of Traverse des Sioux, ceding most of...

Smith's first foray into using beetles as dye came a few years ago on a silk noil cape. The raw fabric is sli...

In 1973, Marlon Brando turned down an Oscar, and the whole world turned on him, calling him an ingrate, a dilettante, a publicity hound, a traitor. But for Brando—as William J. Mann writes in his biography, The Contender: The Story of Marlon Brando (HarperCollins)—the country under Richard Nixon was in a constitutional crisis, and systemic racism was undercutting the American dream. Under these conditions, he believed, business as usual would be complicit with the problem. Forty-six years later, can we understand his reasons better? htt...
