Pastor to become first black leader of Southern Baptists – USATODAY.com - Baptist pastor Fred Luter Jr. once preached the Gospel through an amplifier on street corners in this city's Lower 9th Ward. -Tuesday, he's set to become the first black president of the Southern Baptist Convention— a group created more than a century ago to support slavery — at the group's annual meeting here. - The rise of Luter, 55, from street preacher to religious leader is more than a tale of personal fate. It's a historic moment in the denomination's 167-year history, a history tainted with racial segregation and human bondage, historians and convention leaders say.

Casey Martin stares down Olympic, shoots 74 in U.S. Open - ESPN - By Ian O'Connor | ESPN.com - Casey Martin was hours away from death 10 years ago, and those cold-hearted guardians of the game who challenged his right to use a cart on their golf courses really need to remember that. - The Supreme Court didn't heal Martin's diseased right leg. The landmark case that went the player's way didn't alleviate the mind-numbing pain, didn't wipe out the grim prospect of amputation, and didn't stop a doctor from telling his parents they needed to pray for their child. -"He had 24 hours to live," Martin's mother, Melinda, revealed Thursday as she walked The Olympic Club course to watch the toughest man in the U.S. Open field. - Martin was already world famous for fighting the good fight against the PGA Tour when, in 2002, a series of injections designed to stop his veins from bleeding instead left him with a potentially fatal bacterial infection, left him to endure three emergency surgeries and a two-week stay in a hospital.
