The forecast for Thursday afternoon — and the vital Group D match against Uruguay — called for more of the same, perhaps with a little rain mixed in to make the English truly feel at home. “Obviously, we’re not complaining about that, but I don’t think Uruguay will, either,” Hodgson said. “These conditions, of course, if you’re playing football at the intensity that both we and Uruguay play at, playing in these temperatures can only be advantageous....

The country-music boom no one talks about these days is the one from five or six years ago, when new blood entered Nashville for the first time in years. In a town as closed as Nashville, this gentle tremor was something akin to a creative watershed.
