KEY WEST, Fla. (July 19, 8:10 am ADT) - In a dispute fitting of an Ernest Hemingway novel, two bars in the hard-drinking author's former home are fighting over rights to use the name of his old watering hole.

Carter, Gorbachev, others file brief with high court
Jimmy Carter, Mikhail Gorbachev, the American Medical Association and 48 nations are among those who lobbied the Supreme Court Monday to end the execution of killers who committed their crimes before age 18.
The United States executed more young killers than the rest of the world combined between 1990 and 2003, the diplomats’ filing said.
In the past four years, only five nations have executed juveniles, the diplomats said: Congo, China, Iran, Pakistan and the United States.
