hFamily of beheaded man adjusts in differing ways
PHILADELPHIA -- Relatives of Nicholas Berg, the young American entrepreneur beheaded in Iraq, have taken different paths as they've searched for solace in the year since his death. His father, Michael Berg, has intensified his anti-war activities and traveled the globe to meet families of other civilians kidnapped or slain in Iraq. His weekly peace vigil at a suburban Philadelphia courthouse and frequent interviews contrast sharply with the response of his wife, Suzanne, who has grieved privately since her son's body was found on a Baghdad street May 8, 2004. Sister Sara Berg has quietly pursued information on her younger brother's death through the Freedom of Information Act and cautious searches of the Internet, where video of Nick's murder can still be viewed, deepening the family's anguish.
Race car dreams dashed
SALT LAKE CITY -- A British team trying to set a speed record for an electric car gave up Saturday because the mustard-yellow, torpedo-shaped vehicle wouldn't start for a third morning in a row. They plan to return next year for another try at topping 300 mph. The 34-foot-long "emotion" car ran well in England and on a single practice run on a desert highway about 120 miles west of Salt Lake City, but then ran into a series of baffling electrical problems. Engineers working around the clock were able to start the car in a warm garage, but it shorted out on the test track.
