As Yankee Stadium fell silent

No one did it quite the way Steinbrenner did in his 37 years as the principal owner of the Yankees, and Sinatra’s song provided a fitting introduction for a 20-minute pregame ceremony that honored both Steinbrenner, who died Tuesday, and the team’s longtime public-address announcer Bob Sheppard, who died two days before Steinbrenner.

By the end of the night, the somber mood had dissipated, giving way to the rhythms of a stirring game between the best teams in the American League. Because he lived in Tampa, Fla., Steinbrenner took special joy in beating the Rays, and the Yankees honored him with a 5-4 comeback victory.

The Yankees, who trailed by 3-1 heading into the sixth and by 4-3 entering the eighth, won when Nick Swisher, whose homer an inning earlier tied the score, ripped a two-out single in the bottom of the ninth off Lance Cormier. Swisher’s hit scored Curtis Granderson, who led off with a single and moved to second on a sacrifice. The Yankees widened their lead in the A.L. East over the second-place Rays to three games.

Capping Gulf well gusher

t was expected it would take at least six hours to wrap up the results, but it could also last up to 48 hours, he said during a briefing Tuesday afternoon.

If BP's well passes the integrity test, the new cap could contain most -- if not all -- of the leak that's been gushing into the Gulf for more than two months.

BP engineers will slowly close valves on the 75-ton capping apparatus and measure the buildup of pressure.

National Incident Commander Thad Allen said BP hopes the well can withstand internal pressure of 8,000 to 9,000 pounds per square inch for roughly six hours after the valves are closed.

While the containment cap could stem the flow of oil, the best way to stop the leak permanently will be by drilling a pair of relief wells -- an effort expected to wrap up in a

The American believed killed in the Uganda bomb blasts

n a post on its website, the organization -- Invisible Children -- said Nate Henn was in the country on its behalf to work with Ugandan students.

"Nate was not a glory seeker and never sought the spotlight. He asked not to be made a hero of," the post said. "But the life he lived inspires reflection and imitation."

CNN could not independently verify the information on the site.

Henn -- a native of Raleigh, North Carolina -- was a former rugby player at the University of Delaware, the group said.

He had worked with Invisible Children for a year and a half and raised funds to help educate Ugandan students affected by war.

At the time of the bombings, he was with some of the students he worked with, the group said.

The nonprofit works with Ugandan children affected by decades of war between rebels and government forces. Rebels abduct the victims -- referred also as invisible children -- and force them to

Changing Oil Capture System in Gulf of Mexico

BP expects to have a new seal on the gushing well sometime within the next seven days and it will take two to three weeks to connect all the surface vessels involved to the wellhead. BP’s target is to collect as much as 80,000 barrels a day, more than the estimated amount of the leak, Kent Wells, vice president of exploration and production, said in a conference call from Houston today.

“We’re on plan,” Wells told reporters during the conference call after the robots under water started removing the old installation. “All the crews and everything are set up on rotating shifts so that we can continue operations 24 hours a day.”

The process of switching caps temporarily allows the oil to flow without restriction from the seafloor. BP is using surface ships to capture as much as possible, said company spokesman Mark Proegler.

The system to be installed includes the Helix Producer I surface vessel and the so-called capping stack containment mechanisms. The Helix, capable of collecting 25,000 barrels of oil a day, will start capturing oil tomorrow, Wells said today.

Plan to Contain Oil Leak

BP said in a letter to the federal government's spill recovery coordinator Friday that it would commence work on a new containment cap because there was a good weather window even though it means more oil will flow into the Gulf temporarily.

The letter came in response to Ret. Coast Guard Adm. Thad Allen's demands that BP outline its plans. BP projected it could finish the new-cap operation in five days if it doesn't encounter any unexpected hurdles. Its contingency plan puts the finish time as nine days from commencement of the work. If all goes well, the new system could stop the flow of oil into the Gulf, which has despoiled the fragile coast, rendering some fishing area off limits and soaking untold numbers of sealife in toxic crude.

4 Russians Sent to West in Spy Swap

For several years in the 1990s, Mr. Zaporozhsky, a colonel in Russian intelligence who became deputy chief of the American Department, was secretly working for the C.I.A., one of the highest-ranking American moles in history, Russian prosecutors say.

After surprising his colleagues by retiring suddenly in 1997, he moved with his wife and three children to the United States and went into business. But in 2001, confident that his C.I.A. link was unsuspected, Mr. Zaporozhsky was lured back to Moscow by his former colleagues for what they promised would be a festive K.G.B. anniversary party. He was arrested at the airport, convicted of espionage and sentenced to 18 years in prison.

On Friday, Mr. Zaporozhsky was flown to Vienna and then to the Washington area for the 10-for-4 spy exchange that promises to bring to a swift conclusion the saga of the Russian spy ring exposed by the F.B.I. early last week.

The New Evil Empire

Who outside of South Florida wants to root for Miami after the way James walked out on Cleveland and his home territory of northern Ohio in a mercenary reach for championship rings? On the other hand, who won’t want to see the fledgling super team take a big fall?

Had James stayed in Cleveland, he would have had the support of a nation wanting to see The Loyal One rewarded. Teaming up with Wade, Bosh and Darth Riley makes him more anti-hero than hero — but an even stronger marketable commodity for the N.B.A. brand. That loud noise emanating from out West is Commissioner David Stern cheering from his vacation spot in Sun Valley, Idaho.

Bad guys sell tickets, too. In the course of one week, James switched personas, like a professional wrestler, and the way he explained it Thursday night, his mother, Gloria, gave him permission.
