...Caves Valley Golf Club, built in 1991, is a par-71 course that stretches 6,942 yards. Designed by famed golf course architect Tom Fazio, Caves Valley’s biggest challenge was the speed of its greens...
...turbulent years. Any decisions Britain takes on the future role and capacity of its military - on exactly what the country expects of those bright-eyed Sandhurst cadets - will help determine the way Britain is perceived in the world.

"It's remarkable she chose to voice her complaints by writing a public letter and by threatening to cancel her Facebook account," Clemens Riedl, chief executive of VZ-Networks, tells TIME. "By doing this, she demonstrates that the German government has no legal means to control U.S. Internet companies operating in Germany." As if acknowledging this itself, the ministry pointed out last week that rival German...
