...Look at his game now, and compare it to when he started 15 years ago," says a Railroad Baron who asked not to be identified. "He used to be a scrappy Mediterranean-and-Baltic guy, the consummate Utilities player. Now he's racking up Boardwalk and Park Place and the greens every time he plays. If he's not loading, then St. James Place and Tennessee Avenue aren't the most-landed on properties...

Standard food concessions were shuttered in favor of ritually correct halal vendors like Shalimar and Kabob King.

...Take the 442 coastal road from Mazagón toward Matalasca?as, in the province of Huelva. From Mazagón, stop after about 5 km at a right-hand roadside parking spot known as the Cuesta de Maneli. Leave the car and walk along the treated pine boardwalk that undulates through scrub-covered dunes. Roughly 15 minutes later you are overlooking the Atlantic.
