...rivalries between shops remain. Back on the Long Beach Pike [in California], artists used to drive cars into each other's shops. They'd hire Marines to go in there and beat up everybody. These days, that doesn't really happen anymore. If you have a rivalry with another shop it's usually a good-spirited competition. Occasionally bad things do happen; there was one shop in Portland that was really, really bad. It was on the outskirts of town and another shop run by real professionals started up out there, and the warfare between these two places just escalated...
...Rafael Nadal, he is constantly fighting all these elements, including his own body (he had to pull out of Wimbledon for overworking his knees). Nadal's game is exciting to watch, but one gets tired of watching him win with a struggle, 10 times in a row.

Their support has dwindled to 10-20%. They know we beat them last time. They heavily relied on state institutions to back them up ? the courts, the police, the army, the electoral mechanisms, all there to serve Zanu. This is the reason why the transition is important ? to create the necessary institutional reforms so that the next election is credible...
...always had the feeling that if late in life someone had tapped him on the shoulder and said, "Walter, we're a little shorthanded this week. Think you could help us on the police beat for a few mornings?" he would have responded, "Boy, oh, boy - when and where do you want me?" (See pictures of Walter Cronkite's life and career...
