Treven Gill, 4, and his 77-year-old great-grandmother, Georgia Smith, play basketball in a second attempt. On their first attempt, Smith fell and fractured her wrist and pelvis.

The USS New York passes the Statue of Liberty while fireboats spray water Monday in New York. The new Navy assault ship, which contains about 7.5 tons of steel from the fallen World Trade Center towers, arrived in its namesake city with a 21-gun salute near the site of the 2001 terrorist attack. “It’s a transformation … from something really twisted and ugly,” said Rosaleen Tallon, who lost her firefighter brother, Sean, on 9/11. “I’m proud that our military is using that steel.”
The U.S. flag and flags of other countries fly outside Ford headquarters in Dearborn, Mich. Ford Motor Co. said Monday that it made nearly $1 billion in the third quarter, fueled by U.S. market share gains, cost cuts and the government’s Cash for Clunkers rebates.
