Devin Booker sulked. Maybe it was the box score staring back. Maybe it was the scoreboard laughing from above. Maybe it was the ego, bruised like a Palisade Peach.Then again, when it comes to Jamal Murray, maybe it was the question.“Murray seems to be on a personal type of mission, the way he’s playing in particular,” a reporter asked the Suns guard after the Nuggets humbled Phoenix, 125-107, in Game 1 of the Western Conference semis Saturday night. “What do you have to do to slow him down?”Another Booker frown. Deeper this time.“I don’t feel that,” he replied.Oh, they feel him, all right. And with 5:55 to go in a laugher, Murray felt Phoenix right back.That’s when veteran Suns point guard Chris Paul unleashed a bit of his inner John Starks. CP3 effectively back-checked Murray, hockey-style, while the latter was breaking away with the ball in his hand.Paul lowered his shoulder, sending the Blue Arrow sliding onto the floor in a heap.

Hundreds of patients received free eye exams April 23 at a vision clinic sponsored by the Cupertino De Anza Lions Club. No medical insurance or proof of citizenship was required to receive a free exam.Ten volunteer doctors and 70 non-medical volunteers—most of them Lions Club members—spent nine hours seeing 349 patients at the clinic, held at St. John Vianney Community Center in San Jose. Most patients received recycled eyeglasses from the Lions’ inventory collected from schools, libraries, hospitals and banks. Unusual prescriptions were ordered from an online glasses supplier that donates them to vision clinics.Lines built up as the doctors worked to keep up with flow of people, but by the end of the day, everyone had been seen. Some patients—both children and adults—put on glasses for the first time at the clinic.The Lions Club is planning a similar clinic for October.Bay Area Older Adults offers hikes, tours and seminars

MONACO (AP) — Arnaud Nordin notched two goals and an assist as Monaco’s hopes of qualifying for the Champions League took a hit after a 4-0 loss to Montpellier in the French league on Sunday.Fourth-place Monaco occupies the Europa League spot, five points behind Lens which has a game in hand, while Montpellier earned three precious points in its fight for safety to move 11 points above the relegation zone with five games remaining.Montpellier winger Nordin intercepted a sloppy pass from Youssouf Fofana and cut inside to guide the ball into the bottom corner in the 28th minute. Faitout Maouassa doubled the lead with an angled strike at the near post in the 65th before Nordin curled a shot into the far corner in the 72nd to make it 3-0. English striker Stephy Mavididi took a pass from Nordin to round off the scoring with a low effort in the 79th. Nordin proved a real thorn in the side of the Monaco defense.

(CNN Español) — El nombre de Beéle ha rondado en la escena musical desde hace relativamente pocos años.En 2019, cuando lanzó “Loco”, su primer tema, tuvo la suerte que muchos desean: su internacionalización llegó con tan solo una canción bajo el brazo. Tenía a penas 16 años cuando el tema se hizo viral y su nombre no solo retumbaba por las calles de su natal Barranquilla, en Colombia.“Loco fue la primera y la que a mi me sacó completamente a probar otros países. La que hoy en día también sigo promocionando. Es la canción que a mí me ha abierto las puertas en todo el mundo, cuando salió fue número uno en casi 16-20 países”, cuenta Beéle a Zona Pop CNN desde un estudio de grabación en Miami, poco antes del estreno de su más reciente sencillo, “Guaro”.“Estoy muy emocionado por todo el proceso que he tenido que vivir.

FREDERICK, Md. (AP) — John Ashbury jokes that his memory isn’t what it once was now that he’s reached his 80s. But you wouldn’t know that if you watched him flip through a copy of his recently published book.Every few pages, he stops. His eyes light up. And he begins to rattle off facts and figures with the dexterity of a man who has spent most of his life immersed in the study of history.Ashbury, a local author and historian, just released his fourth book. It’s called “Reflections,” and it’s billed as a collection of “eclectic selections from the archives of Frederick Magazine.”Since 2006, Ashbury has written a regular column for the magazine called Reflections. In each piece, he profiles a person, place or event that in some way shaped Frederick County’s history. The new book compiles all 86 columns that Ashbury has published over the years, plus one that’s due to run in May.The 87 subjects in the book “run the gamut,” Ashbury said.There’s Morton Mower, who grew up downtown in the...Latest news
