For one afternoon, the Rockies clubhouse went from funereal to celebratory. “Believe,” Cher’s electropop hit, blared from the speakers. Laughter replaced despair. Smiles reappeared. “You guys can probably hear it now, we’re in pretty good spirits,” rookie Chase Dollander said after pitching the Rockies to a 2-1 victory over Atlanta on Wednesday afternoon before 29,661 at Coors Field. The victory snapped an eight-game losing streak. “Obviously, losing is not fun,” Dollander continued. “But at the same time, we know that we’re capable of winning, and we haven’t put a winning product on the field. So that’s exactly what we did…
In the fall, when the winds would howl and whip a rainstorm across Orlando, Fla., the retention pond a couple of houses down from the Harvey family home would overflow with the anger of hurricane season. Grass flooded to mush. Dirt flooded to mud. In the spring, though, when the water drained, the pond became a bowl roughly 60 yards long and 20 yards wide. They called it “the ditch” in their 49-house subdivision. And this, for a decade, was RJ Harvey’s ditch. The ditch birthed dreams. When the boy turned five or six, old enough to replace the tiny…

She feels it is hers, but she has never had a career and has been supported throughout her life. She expects me to support her, and while she’s been nice to me lately, she can be abusive and manipulative. I am recently divorced and…
