Hart and Jackson loom in Democratic race satire

A column riffs on Hart reentering the Democratic field as a comic contrast to faltering rivals.

Four year old Signals Fire Save at Brooklyn Apartment

A downtown Brooklyn building suffered heavy damage but all residents escaped uninjured thanks to a 4 year old boy who yelled to alert others. Fire Chief Roger Nelson said the 9:30 a.m. blaze prompted Marjorie Knox to grab her baby and evacuate with Stacey Washington and the 4 year old. Jan Jansen also escaped after Nelson placed a ladder to his window. The cause is under investigation with a state fire marshal official due Monday. Malcom and Montezuma fire departments assisted.

The court found a reasonable implication of a promise to award the home in exchange for services and noted the value of her work exceeded free rent and groceries received. Proceeds will be distributed after funeral and admin expenses.
