Noah Feldman: Let Steve Bannon arrest be the coda on Trump’s corrupt presidency
Steve Bannon’s arrest on fraud charges is hardly a tragedy in the traditional sense of the word. Sure, the fall of a hero is the hallmark of tragedy, and Bannon considers himself an American hero — a self-perception that comes through very clearly in Errol Morris’s brilliant and edgy interview...
Joe Biden and Kamala Harris respond to Trump’s attacks before Republican conventionVideo
WASHINGTON — Joe Biden, girding for a week of attacks at the Republican National Convention, previewed his response Sunday by laughing off questions about his mental acuity, denying he supported defunding the police, and leaping to defend his running mate, Kamala Harris, against President Trump’s attacks. In the Biden-Harris ticket’s...
Letter to the editor: Let the kids play — safely
I cannot take it anymore. Why are fall sports an all-or-nothing issue? Everyone agrees the kids need to play. The question is, can it be done safely? Schools are infected by students and staff bringing the virus in from the community. Communities are infected by members of the community going...
Letter to the editor: Term limits needed for House, Senate
I promised myself no more letters to the editor. But the current political atmosphere warrants one more. I’ve read all the hate/admiration letters for both candidates, and one question keeps bugging me: Why not term limits for the House and Senate? Joe Biden is a prime example of the need...
Police: Man dead following shooting in Hill District
A man died after being shot in Pittsburgh’s Hill District early Sunday morning, according to the Allegheny County Medical Examiner. The medical examiner’s office identified the man as James W. Goodwine, 21, of Pittsburgh. Pittsburgh police officers responded to a Shotspotter alert in the 600 block of Elmore Street around...
Letter to the editor: Buy honey from local farms, hobbyists
I’m glad letter-writer Amy Elizabeth of PETA (“Be a ‘honey’ to the bees,” Aug. 17, TribLIVE) shed some light on some of the malevolent practices of the pollination and honey industries. With that said, I believe she misses some important points. As a local beekeeper, harvesting honey is only one...
Letter to the editor: Fight for the Postal Service
The recent attacks on the U.S. Postal Service are an insult to anyone who has worked for this dedicated group of Americans. After my dad came home from World War II, he got a job as a letter carrier and spent almost 40 years doing a job he loved. He...
Letter to the editor: HEROES Act, clean energy essential
In May, House Democrats passed the HEROES Act, a bill to help families, workers and businesses weather the economic fallout of the pandemic. However, Senate Republicans have left the HEROES Act that would help us climb out of this mess and work toward a brighter future to languish in a...
How to grill chicken so it’s juicy with charred (not burned!) skin
I grill bone-in chicken the way the tortoise runs the race against the hare in Aesop’s fable: slow and steady. Cooking this way over moderate heat ensures a winning chicken dinner. If you start out too fast and set the chicken over intense heat to try to grill it quickly,...
Better burgers are about the blend
There was a time when I liked burgers based mostly on their toppings. I might order a Swiss cheese and bacon burger, or one topped with blue cheese and caramelized onions, and that, I thought, was where the flavor was. Then I realized I could make my own burger blend...
Potato-crusted tilapia is best prepared in nonstick pan
I tried to make potato-crusted fish once before and it was a disaster, with the grated potatoes sticking much more to the pan than to the fish. I don’t remember if this was the recipe I used, but lesson learned: This seems surer to work in a good non-stick pan....
Shake up quarantine routine with easy-to-make garlic-based pizza
Ordering out for pizza more often during the pandemic? Here’s a pizza that you can make at home and takes only minutes to put together. It has a creamy, garlic sauce and is a nice change from tomato-based pizzas. This recipe calls for a thin crust pizza base you can...
