A Question Hangs Over a Trial: Why Did a Nanny Kill 2 Children in Her Care?

Five years after Yoselyn Ortega was charged with fatally stabbing a 2-year-old boy and a 6-year-old girl, she faces trial and claims insanity.

I cannot judge her condition then or now.
I hope her lawyers succeed in the insanity plea.

No one deserves life in prison.  A mental hospital is only sightly better.

NBC Apologizes After Japan Comment Draws Anger in South Korea

The network faced a backlash after an Olympic commentator said that “every South Korean” sees Japan as a model for their nation’s rapid development.

A tender place.

Food

What to Cook This Week

With the Olympics in full swing, make up some Korean food, starting with a seafood pajeon, a kind of scallion pancake, or galbijjim, a short-rib stew.

Not a bad thought.

I will probably keep it simple.

Homes That Sold for Around $450,000

Recent residential sales in New York City and the region.

Only if you pay for it.

The designs are easy.   The location is not.

Zippers feel lousy on skin.
They are a constant temptation.

He Fought for Iran’s Environment and Was Arrested. Now, He’s Dead.

Authorities say a well-known Iranian-Canadian professor killed himself in a Tehran prison, after he and other environmentalists are arrested. His family is demanding answers.

The hard line in Iran is worried.

Signal seems a good idea.

Opinion

Sharing the Plane Cabin With Animals

Readers discuss a column by David Leonhardt criticizing those who falsely claim that their pets are service animals.

Separate the animal accompanied from the animal free in separate aircraft.
Services can be adjusted to the traffic.

Watching

Six Films to Watch if You Loved ‘Lady Bird’

“Lady Bird” is a refreshing coming-of-age tale. But it comes from a long line of great movies about headstrong young women. These six are streaming.

I will watch you watch if I can't stand watching.

Sooner is better.  As soon as you can is best.
