Allen Iverson is in trouble, folks, deep trouble. The combination of alcohol and gambling – and a once-promising career in tatters because of the first two – won’t culminate in anything short of disaster if help does not arrive in short order.

In the final days of the 2010 Winter Olympics, many are sad to see their favorite ice skaters, ski jumpers or curlers go–but Chicago baseball players have not gotten too attached.

AMSTERDAM — Prime Minister Jan Peter Balkenende said Sunday Dutch troops will begin leaving southern Afghanistan in August, since his caretaker government has no authority to accept a NATO request to stay on. Speaking a day after his coalition government collapsed over the issue, Balkenende said the Netherlands will end its role in Uruzgan province, where 21 Dutch soldiers have been killed since the mission was first deployed in 2006. “Our task as the lead nation ends in August this year,” he said on Dutch television.

Republican electoral prospects may be looking up with the retirement of Sen. Evan Bayh (D-Ind.) and with a host of other Democratic seats up for grabs, but the statement, which appeared on the eve of the annual Conservative Political Action Conference, suggests that the establishment right is shivering — not so much because of the unusually frosty Washington winter but because of the potential threat posed to the GOP by the insurgent “tea party” movement.

PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti — Atop the rubble of destroyed churches, in parks and on sidewalks, thousands of Haitians prayed Friday in a national day of mourning, one month after a magnitude-7 earthquake killed more than 200,000 and left this Caribbean country struggling for survival. Leaders of Haiti’s two official religions – a Catholic bishop and the head of the Voodoo priests, both robed in white – joined ministers from Protestant denominations for a prayer service in the shade of mimosa trees near the shattered National Palace. Hundreds of people gathered.
