The centuries may differ, but the faith remains the same. From present-day America, to an Atlantic crossing in the 1700s, to a newly established 19th-century Seattle, these three inspirational novels show that while circumstances may vary, the need to trust in God does not.
Readers can expect major entertainment in two paranormal thrillers that bridge the gap between mystery and horror, starring a couple of detectives who are in way over their heads.
Strong heroes have always been a fixture in romance novels, but lately, authors have been pushing readers' comfort zones with bad boys who are off-the-charts wicked. We thought it might be fun to sample a few books from boundary-testing authors this month, so we suggest you read on, sigh and enjoy!
It's hard to know what to do about Black History Month. On one hand, it might be the only time of year that schoolchildren will learn about the important moments and people in black history that shaped our country and world. On the other hand, one month seems paltry when there are so many stories. This year, when the news of Ferguson, Missouri, #WeNeedDiverseBooks and #BlackLivesMatter were trending issues that only the most out-of-touch could ignore, we need books about Black History more than ever. Lucky for us, there are some wonderful books out this month.
"I'm of two minds," we say. Or, "I changed my mind." These phrases roll casually off the tongue, but we don't mean them literally. Maybe we should, according to two new books that explore the fascinating history and tantalizing future of neuroscience.
Ah, love—everyone wants it, but many feel unsure how to get it or keep it. These titles offer valuable, often entertaining insight on many facets of love. Personal stories, wit and wisdom abound. Go forth and be romantic!
The African-American struggle continues in every corner of the nation, from small towns like Ferguson, Missouri, to the boroughs of New York. Thus, Black History Month arrives at a critical time in America. The question is: Can we learn from history? These selections shed new light on the black experience and offer perspectives on the often painful evolution of race relations in America.
With the new year comes glorious possibility, which makes this a perfect time to think about improving your outlook and productivity at the office. This trio of books offers ideas, support and strategies in equal measure, no matter your goal: Want to get more done? Banish distractions? Feel connected to your work? These titles are here to help—and inspire.
So you want to work on some aspect of yourself this year? BookPage is here to help! We've got reading selections from head to toe. Make a resolution to improve your life with small, consistent changes that can make a big difference in the way you think and feel.
Whether you light a menorah every year or are new to the Jewish Festival of Lights, you'll find something to appreciate among this year's Hanukkah picture book offerings. All three involve combinations of rhyming verse and fine art, as well as new takes on old traditions.

Robert Francis Vaughn (born November 22, 1932) is an American actor noted for his stage, film and television work. His best-known TV roles include the suave spy Napoleon Solo in the 1960s series The Man from U.N.C.L.E. and the wealthy detective Harry Rule in the 1970s series The Protectors. In film, he portrayed one of the title characters in The Magnificent Seven and Major Paul Krueger in The Bridge at Remagen, and provided the voice of Proteus IV, the computer villain of Demon Seed.
As grifter and card sharp Albert Stroller, Vaughn appeared in all but one of the 48 episodes of the British television drama series Hustle (2004–2012). From January to February 2012, he appeared in the long-running British soap opera Coronation Street as Milton Fanshaw, a love interest for Sylvia Goodwin, played by veteran English actress Stephanie Cole.
Vaughn was born in New York City, to performer parents: Marcella Frances (née Gaudel), a stage actress, and Gerald Walter Vaughn, a radio actor.[1] His ancestry includes Irish, French, and German.[2] After his parents divorced, Vaughn lived in Minneapolis with his grandparents while his mother traveled.[1][3][4] He attended North High School and later enrolled in the University of Minnesota as a journalism major. He quit after a year and moved to Los Angeles with his mother.[1] He enrolled in Los Angeles City College, then transferred to Los Angeles State College of Applied Arts and Sciences, where he earned a Master's degree in theater.[1] Continuing his higher education even through his successful acting career, Vaughn earned a Ph.D. in communications from the University of Southern California, in 1970. In 1972, he published his dissertation as the book Only Victims: A Study of Show Business Blacklisting.
Vaughn made his television debut on the November 21, 1955 "Black Friday" episode of the American TV series Medic, the first of more than two hundred episodic roles by the middle of 2000.
Vaughn appeared as Stan Gray with Virginia Christine as his older sister, Hester, in the surprise-ending episode "The Twisted Road" of the western syndicated series, Frontier Doctor, starring Rex Allen in the title role as Dr. Bill Baxter.[5]
His first film appearance was as an uncredited extra in The Ten Commandments (1956), playing a golden calf idolater also visible in a scene in a chariot behind that of Yul Brynner. Vaughn's first credited movie role came the following year in the Western Hell's Crossroads (1957), in which he played the real-life Bob Ford, the killer of outlaw Jesse James. After being seen by Burt Lancaster in Calder Willingham's play End as a Man, Vaughn was signed to a contract with Lancaster's film company and was to have played the Steve Dallas role in Sweet Smell of Success but was drafted into the United States Army before he could begin the film.[6]
Vaughn's first notable appearance was in The Young Philadelphians (1959) for which he was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor and a Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actor – Motion Picture. Next, he appeared as gunman Lee in The Magnificent Seven (1960), a role he essentially reprised 20 years later in Battle Beyond the Stars (1980), both films being adaptations of filmmaker Akira Kurosawa's 1954 Japanese samurai epic, Seven Samurai. Vaughn is the last surviving member of the seven actors who portrayed The Magnificent Seven. He played a different role, Judge Oren Travis, on the 1998-2000 syndicated TV series The Magnificent Seven and is the only surviving member of the title cast of the original 1960 film (although Rosenda Monteros, who played Petra, and Rico Alaniz, cast as Sotero, are still living).
In the 1963-1964 season, Vaughn appeared in The Lieutenant as Captain Raymond Rambridge alongside Gary Lockwood, the Marine second lieutenant at Camp Pendleton. His dissatisfaction with the somewhat diminished aspect of the character led him to request an expanded role. During the conference, his name came up in a telephone call and he ended up being offered a series of his own — as Napoleon Solo, title character in a series originally to be called Solo, but which became The Man from U.N.C.L.E. after the pilot was reshot with Leo G. Carroll in the role of Solo's boss. This was the part that would make Vaughn a household name even behind the Iron Curtain.[7] Earlier, Vaughn had guest-starred on Lockwood's ABC series Follow the Sun. Also in 1963 he appeared in an episode of The Dick Van Dyke Show as Jim Darling, a successful businessman and an old flame of Laura Petrie in "It's A Shame She Married Me".
From 1964 to 1968, Vaughn played Solo with Scottish co-star David McCallum playing his fellow agent Illya Kuryakin. This production spawned a spinoff show, large amounts of merchandising, overseas theatrical movies of re-edited episodes, and a sequel The Return of the Man from U.N.C.L.E. - The Fifteen-Year-Later Affair. In the year the series ended, Vaughn landed a large role playing Chalmers, an ambitious California politician in the film Bullitt starring Steve McQueen; he was nominated for a BAFTA Award for Best Supporting Actor for this role.
In 1966, Vaughn appeared as a bachelor on the nighttime premiere of The Dating Game. He was picked for the date, which was a trip to London.
Vaughn continued to act, in television and in mostly B movies. He starred in two seasons of the British detective series The Protectors in the early 1970s. He won an Emmy for his portrayal of Frank Flaherty in "Washington: Behind Closed Doors" (ABC, 1977) and during the 80's starred with friend George Peppard in the final season of The A-Team. According to Dirk Benedict, Vaughn was actually added to the cast of that show because of his friendship with Peppard. It was hoped Vaughn would help ease tensions between Mr. T and Peppard. In 1983 he starred as villainous multi millionaire Ross Webster in Superman III. In 1983-1984 he appeared as industrialist Harlan Adams in the short-lived CBS series Emerald Point N.A.S., replacing Patrick O'Neal. In 1989 Vaughn starred as an Army General in the low budget, cult zombie movie "Chud II".
In the mid 1990s, he made several cameo appearances on Late Night With Conan O'Brien as an audience member who berates the host and his guests beginning with, "You people sicken me..."
In 2004, after a string of guest roles on series such as Law & Order, in which he had a recurring role during season eight, Vaughn experienced a resurgence. He began co-starring in the British TV drama series Hustle, made for BBC One. The series was also broadcast in the United States on the cable network AMC. In the series, Vaughn plays elder-statesman American con artist Albert Stroller, a father figure to a group of younger grifters. In September 2006, he guest-starred in Law & Order: Special Victims Unit.
Since the mid-1990s, Vaughn has been a spokesman in a set of generic advertisements for various personal injury law firms around the U.S.A. and Canada, such as that of Connecticut and Massachusetts law firm Mark E. Salomone & Morelli, Georgia's Eichholz Law Firm and the Maine-based law offices of Joe Bornstein. The television commercial features Vaughn urging injured complainants to "tell the insurance companies you mean business."
Vaughn also appeared as himself narrating and being a character in a radio play broadcast by BBC Radio 4 in 2007 about making the film The Bridge at Remagen in Prague, Czechoslovakia, during the Russian invasion of 1968.[8]
Frequent references are made to his playing Napoleon Solo and the character's great spying abilities.
In November 2011, it was announced that Vaughn would appear for three weeks in the British soap opera Coronation Street.[9] His cameo as Milton in the long-running program lasted for three weeks, from January to February 2012.
Vaughn is a long-time member of the Democratic Party. His family was also Democratic and was involved in politics in Minneapolis.[10] and early in his career, he was described as a "liberal Democrat".[11] He was the chair of the California Democratic State Central Committee speakers bureau and actively campaigned for candidates in the 1960s.[10]
Vaughn was the first popular American actor to take a public stand against the Vietnam war and was active in the Vietnam War-era peace group, Another Mother for Peace,[12] and, with Dick Van Dyke and Carl Reiner, was a founder of Dissenting Democrats.[13] Early in the 1968 presidential election, they supported the candidacy of Eugene McCarthy, mentioned for the Vice Presidency. The choice was prophetic, as McCarthy was not selected for the second position but did seek the Presidency in 1968.[13] Vaughn was also reported to have political ambitions of his own,[14] but in a 1973 interview, he denied having had any political aspirations.[15]
In spite of being a registered Democrat, Vaughn does not support President Barack Obama, and described him as "not up to the job" in March 2009.[16]
In his memoir, A Fortunate Life, Vaughn recalls watching his good friend Jack Nicholson stumble his way through a scene of Bus Stop in a mid-1950s acting class without the "confidence" to carry it off. "Nicholson declared, 'Vaughnie, I'm going to give myself two more years in this business. Then I'm going to look for another way to make a living.' 'Hang in there, Jack,' Vaughn told him. 'You're too young to quit.'"[citation needed]
Vaughn married actress Linda Staab in 1974. They appeared together in a 1973 episode of The Protectors, called "It Could Be Practically Anywhere on the Island", in which Staab played a ditzy American whose dog was stolen; eventually Vaughn's character, Harry Rule, found the dog. They have adopted two children, Cassidy (born 1976) and Caitlin (born 1981). They reside in Ridgefield, Connecticut.[17]

They had annual sales of $5.6 billion and produced a volume of 48,000,000 hectoliters in 2006 (http://www.molsoncoors.com/index.html). Molson Coors Brewing Co. employs an estimated 10,200 people in three different regions of the world, the United State, Canada, and the United Kingdom (http://www.molsoncoors.com/fact/index.html). In the past decade, ethics have been forced to the forefront by companies like Enron, WorldCom, Tyco, and others. Molson Coors has been proactive on the education of ethics in their workplace. The company offers interactive online courses, ethics leadership training, a decision map, a detailed set of policies, and a help line to all their employees. Recently hire employees must complete an online course in ethics within 90 days. Molson Coors requires employees to take refresher courses every other year. Early on there were sticking points with the unions and other employee groups. After the program was better understood it was accepted. Molson Coors rewrote their code of conduct to make it more easily understood by all their employees. They also created a web based training system to help employees with real world situations and reinforce the key principals of ethics. They call the program the "ethics expedition." It begins with cut and dry issues and leads into more vague ethical scenarios until the user completes the program by getting to the top of the ethics mountain. "The goal of the program is to step beyond rules and guidelines and teach employees how to think, clarify, and analyze situations. " says Warren Malmquist (Bohander & Snell, 2007) The firm focuses their ethics program on prevention rather than investigation. Currently the Molson Coors ethics help line 3 receives about 25 calls per quarter. (Bohander & Snell, 2007) Molson Coors believes that the program has resulted in gains for the company. Ethics can have an effect on a company in a number of ways. Having good ethics training can help businesses avoid lawsuits. Finding people who are on the same ethical wavelength are your organization can help ease the addition of them into your work force. Employee moral can also be affected by the hiring of ethical people bringing together a more cohesive work environment. To reinforce your company's ethics into your work force, managers can add an ethical agenda into performance reviews and evaluations. Managers can give their organization's ethics a higher value to employees by having the ethics program incorporated into the employee payment structure. CEO's and company leaders may apply the same principal to salary-based incentives in their managers' contracts to make sure that employees on a day-to-day basis project their values. Ethics in business should begin from the ground up. Begin by evaluating a company's hiring process and practices. Companies should try to find candidates whose' values match the company. A method called personality matching can be applied to your hiring practices you are going to find people who are a better fit for your organization. Personality matching is a technique that can be used by people who are interviewing for jobs. Personality matching is based on the halo effect, or the idea that we like people who are like us (http://www.collegegrad.com/jobsearch/Mastering- the-Interview/The-Personality-Matching-Technique/). The collegegrad website tells prospective interviewees how to manipulate interviewing managers into feeling a 4 connecting to them within minutes of meeting them. The site recommends that you adjust your manner of speaking and the tone of your voice to match that of the interviewer. However, you can adjust the technique to benefit the manager conducting the interview. Rather than trying to find prospective employees who can match your tone and cadence try to find employees whose personality matches that of the company. If an organization can become efficient at identifying prospective employees whose values match their own then the organization will spent less time and money trying to teach or train new employees their system of values. The person-organization fit is very important to a business that places a strong emphasis on its ethics. "Companies such as Texas Instruments, Merck, Southwest Airlines, and Starbucks place a high priority on selecting individuals who match the values and culture of the organization. " (Bohlander & Snell, pg 245) Bohlander and Snell further comment, "…the need for teamwork and flexibility has created a keen interest in this type of person-organization." This may result in passing on candidates who have the required skills for an open position but do not match the culture of your organization. Many businesses utilize personality tests during their interviews for their prospective employees. Personality tests have been found to be good predictors of motivation, such as their leadership effects and propensity to adhere to rules. (Bohlander & Snell, pg 264) There are five dimensions that make up a person's personality. Those dimensions are extroversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, neuroticism, and openness to new experiences. The traits that might be most pertinent to whether or not an employee may have the type of values you have are 5 agreeableness and conscientiousness. Agreeableness is the degree to which someone is trusting, amiable, generous, tolerant, honest, cooperative and flexible. (Bohlander & Snell, pg 264) The most valuable element of agreeableness as relates to ethics is honesty. Being honest is a good step toward being ethical. Conscientiousness is the degree to which someone is dependable and organized and perseveres in tasks. (Bohlander & Snell, pg 264) Having a conscientious employee would aid their ethics in their dependability and their ability to persevere. While personality tests can be valuable tools to an organization, you must be very careful that your personality test does not inadvertently discriminate against individuals who would otherwise perform effectively. (Bohlander & Snell, pg 264) Having all your employees on the same page as far as ethics goes may help improve employee moral. Molson Coors uses "ethical tools" to help employees understand what they want in terms of ethical standards. Molson Coors has an ethical hotline, a decision map, an ethics computer-training module, and a user-friendly code of conduct that employees are tested on every other year. Having ethical employees who proactively try to eliminate problems in their daily work will help Molson Coors avoid many possible lawsuits. The system is currently set up to avoid or stop ethical issues as quickly as possible before they blossom into bigger issues. This differs from many organizations who have an investigation based system that waits for the ethical issue to be breeched. Molson Coors employees are trained using a reader friendly code of conduct so they are aware of all of the rules and they are then tested on the ethics code using real world situations and problems. Molson Coors system teaches not only the rules and their 6 application but teaches their employees a thought process that helps them reason through the experiences they will encounter in everyday work life. The employees will not only be able to fall back on the factual part of their training but will also have a thought process to go through when an unfamiliar situation occurs. The fact that Molson Coors has such a strict code of ethics and easy to use system to get the message to employees, will most certainly decrease the likelihood of the company becoming involved in litigation related to ethical breaches. The fact that they have a multi-tiered system that has documented steps throughout the process will help them win cases or have cases thrown out more frequently than an organization that has no documented process for dealing with ethics issues. While this may not solve all problems it helps a great deal. Once a business has hired the right type of person and trained those people the organization must find ways to entice employees and managers alike to follow the ethical guidelines on a daily basis. One way to do this is to use the pay-for- performance standard of compensation. Pay-for performance is a standard by which managers tie compensation to employee effort and performance. (Bohlander & Snell, pg 398) Pay-for-performance standard of compensation serves to motivate employees to perform with a larger effort, which results in lower labor costs for the employer. Most employees believe that their compensation should be directly linked to their relative performance. (Bohlander & Snell, pg 398) With this in mind, there needs to be a way to link the company's ethical behavior to the employees' ethical actions and compensate them accordingly. It would be a much better tactic to reward positive 7 behavior than to punish employees for complacent behavior. It benefits the organization a great deal to have the employees view the payment link to ethics as a reward for being ethical rather than have the workforce view the payment link to ethical behavior as a possible punishment. When the payment plan is seen as a negative, employees will be trying to avoid being penalized for being unethical. When the payment plan is viewed as a reward for being ethical, employees will go out of their way to make ethical choices and go the extra mile for the company, rather than just trying to avoid possible consequences. It is important for human resources and the managers to make this distinction clear from the moment they hire new employees so as not to create a poor view or the compensation package. This payment scale may also help to boost employee moral because rewards are always on the horizon rather than employees looking back over their shoulders for possible pending punishment and lower pay. The pay-for-performance compensation package will have to rely heavily on the employee evaluations. The employee evaluations must have strategic relevance, which means the evaluation must relate to the strategic objectives of the company. It will be difficult to write positive standards that judge employees fairly. The most likely standards regarding ethics would be based on negative feedback from customers or other employees. It is important to leave no gray area in the performance appraisal. In the court case of Albemarle Paper Company v Moody, the supreme court ruled that the employees had been ranked against a vague standard, open to each supervisors own interpretation. (Bohlander & Snell, pg 354) The court further said that because 8 there was no clear of knowing what criteria of job performance the supervisors were using or whether each supervisor was using the same criteria. (Bohlander & Snell, pg 354) The U.S. Supreme Court deemed these standards unfair, so when setting standards for something that is not easily measured like ethics be sure to set clear and concise standards that are valid to the company's goals. If your organization is small enough it may be beneficial to have one person do all the evaluations so that everyone is being judged to the same standard and then have someone review that work. Regardless of size it is critical to have well defined standards of appraisal. Having good ethics can benefit an organization in many ways. The business may help it self avoid litigation. They may help build a tight knit group of employees. Companies will have to entice employees to follow their ethical standards with a payment plan that promotes positive ethical behaviors. The company will have to devise a specific and concise set of standards to evaluate employees' ethical conduct. They will also need to have a set of managers that full understand these standards and apply them in the same manner to all employees. If the human resources department can set the standards correctly and find managers to apply the standards to the company, a business can achieve all the benefits that come with an ethical business.

Buckeye also announced today that its general partner declared a cash distribution of $1.0375 per limited partner ("LP") unitfor the quarter ended December 31, 2012. Class B unitholders will not receive a distribution of cash, but instead will be issued additional Class B units pursuant to Buckeye's partnership agreement. The distribution will be payable on February 28, 2013, to unitholders of record on February 19, 2013. Buckeye has paid cash distributions in each quarter since its formation in 1986.

stabilizer bar popped off
So my most recent flight ended when the stabilizer bar popped off, sending my Quark tumbling to the ground. This can only be caused by one of 2 things - the stabilizer bar or the see-saw, right? In the past, whenever I had a crash that caused the stabilizer bar to pop off, I replaced both, but that's expensive, so after my most recent crash, I had a look, nothing looked damaged, so I just reattached the stabilizer bar.
Thoughts? |

I have a hard time installing the stabilizer bar. It seems to slip right into place, but most times it doesnt. A good test when installing it, I found, is once I think I have it in place, I just give it a tug upwards. If it is indeed installed properly, the heli will lift up, otherwise, the stabilizer bar will pop off. Which, for me, is what happens a least 2 or 3 times before I finally get it seated properly. My eyes arent what the used to be though, and Im only 56! Mike |

Anyway, I looked closely, and whether it happened this time or was already that way, the pins in the see-saw looked like they might be a little off, so I replaced that for now... |

Yup, you got that right! Plus my wheel chair has a brushless motor. It may not be very fast, but man, it sure has a lot of torque! I have a basket that fits on the back to carry my helis and assorted gear. I have to be careful in sand though. The thing weighs over 200 pounds! (Not easy to push) Mike |

I am trying to figure myself out. I had no clue I was the biggest jig saw puzzle of my life. I also never understood why I self-bash myself all the time. As a kid I was always picked on and then I learned to make fun of myself to cope. I see now that is not the way to go. Because as you get older it becomes a way of dealing with your own failure like calling yourself fat and lazy! Telling yourself you are more than worth it is a hard thing to do when you tend to rely on others opinions. It is garbage to me that I have allowed people to shape myself image of who I am or who I should be. I know it is dumb but I guess I have always wanted approval. Like in high school when you are put in cliques. My title was the funny one, the girl who was friends with all the guys, the intimidating one. Yet I was never that girl! The one everyone wanted and goggled at. Weird part though that I was later told I was thought of but was told that I was too much of a friend or too scary. Many guys had crushes but I was the girl they respected so much they just never went there. It is pretty strange to think. Sometimes I saw it as excuses. But I hope to be that girl in my own eyes one day. I would love to still be respected but just to know I am eye candy would be pretty cool. LOL! Loving what I see in the mirror is my biggest challenge. To be able to not care about others thoughts of me or even the way I think of me, man oh man what a feat!

I had always hated myself while growing up. Even as an adult. I just recently started to love myself in like the last year or so by looking at myself through God's eyes. When I had finally realized just how beautiful and loved I was by Him, I started to appreciate His creation in me. On occasion I start to go back to the way I use to think and then God does something to remind me what He thinks. Love you girl, Amy

So many of us can look back at things in our growing up days and recall negative feelings about ourselves. I remember how chubby I was, how self-conscious, and then I came from a very poor home and had one pair of shoes to wear to school all year long. I wore the same dresses and it felt like Christmas whenever I was fortunate enough to get hand me downs. All of this time, I was very fortunate to come from a God loving family. We went to church 3 times a week and once when it snowed so deeply dad rigged up something with his tractor and we rode on it. Ha!
With God's help I have learned that he made each of us special and loves each the same (very, very much). I let this factor turn me around from the negatives and reach out to others who are feeling in the negative. I cannot stand to see someone down, or someone alone. Once, when I was in college, I saw this young lady sitting all alone, so I went over to her and we began to talk. I found out she was kin to Dolly Parton; the singer and the one who now owns Dollywood in Pigeon Forge TN. I thought that was super cool.
I hope you realize that you too are loved and you do not need to think you are second class. When you feel the negatives try to reflect on something positive.
One thing I see wonderful about you is that you care for the members on our team and that you are a really good coach who makes up wonderful challenges. I am sure there are many more wonderful things about you; as I look forward to becoming better acquainted on our team.

Wow! Sounds like you are on your way to figuring it all out. Self love is the hardest of all. We all go through this and high school, sad to say, shapes a lot of our thinking for many years to come. You are not the only one who went through this. I think it is way more common than you know. Good luck

Upset-apalooza?corporalclegg 03-12-2007, 06:58 AM What the heck is up with all of these "upsets" at Indian Wells this year? I'm guessing it means the depth of pro tennis has become... deeper? Merton 03-12-2007, 07:00 AM No, it is a vast conspiracy from the bookies to squeeze the money out of the poor, uninformed investors. corporalclegg 03-12-2007, 07:05 AM I like the way you think. By the way, what were the odds on the Federer-Canas match? Merton 03-12-2007, 07:13 AM I like the way you think. By the way, what were the odds on the Federer-Canas match? I saw 32:1 for Canas winning before the match, factor in those who made trades during the match and those who have bet on the winner-take-all market for Roger and the bookies must have made a hell of a kill. Klaas_nalbandian 03-12-2007, 11:01 AM there are lots of weird matches, but some guys came back luckily like gonzo and nalby leng jai 03-12-2007, 11:09 AM It means the good players are playing shit. Bobby 03-12-2007, 11:15 AM It means that there is depth in men's tennis, some are playing badly, some just don't care. And also, some are already tired in March from travelling (Qatar, Australia, Europe, Dubai, United States...) scoobs 03-12-2007, 11:17 AM I sorta hope there's a bit of a return to normality today. Yesterday was kr-a-a-zy.

Probably PRO Mr Disney, his RR argument with allowing the favs to lose one match and still stay is as valid as it can be (that is, still BS IMO) Corswandt 03-12-2007, 06:04 PM It means the good players are playing shit. Pretty much, yes. corporalclegg 03-13-2007, 07:21 AM Blake? Bookies are becoming MILLIONAIRES. I'm willing to bet that Ferrero will beat Nadal tomorrow, and Gasquet will beat Roddick. Sofyaxo 03-13-2007, 07:45 AM It means that Disney is off crying or trying to make last minuet pleas that they would all still be in under the RR system.;) dylan24 03-13-2007, 07:49 AM at least the women favs keep winning unlike the men Bibberz 03-13-2007, 08:06 AM I mentioned it somewhere else, but I think that thread died: there are only really upsets in Rafa and Fed's quarters. Davydenko and Roddick's quarters haven't been nearly as surprising. tangerine_dream 03-13-2007, 05:00 PM It's interesting that so many seeds would go crashing out right after Federer's loss. You'd think they would have been thrilled at this chance to win a Masters shield, but it's almost like everybody got *too* excited and ended up choking. Very strange. Here's Benneteau's take on it: UNFAMILIAR FEELING: Julien Benneteau, who pulled off an upset of No. 6 James Blake, had a unique reason so many of the top seeds in the Pacific Lie Open have lost so far. It's Roger Federer's fault. :lol: "I think in men's tennis, everybody, almost everybody, can beat everybody. So we were used to seeing Roger win everything," Benneteau said. "For the first time maybe since a long, long time ago, he lost (in) the first round. So it's maybe a little bit weird for the people and then for us (the players)." |

I am a grad student at Harvard.
Mihaly has completed online and offline ID verification.
Mihaly's apartment was ok, but really a great steal for the price, so we were really happy with our stay, and value for money. Mihaly himself is honest & reliable, and our trip went by with no problems. I believe this apartment is no longer owned by him, but I would definitely recommend working with him if he has future listings. Yoav
Mihaly and family (4 people total) were very clean and respectful of my apartment. Everything went well except for one hiccup: they accidentally took my iPhone charger. After a week or so of emailing, I was forced to ask that he reimburse me for a new one, which he finally did.
