But keeping the crowd entertained consists of free prizes and games until the third period, when teams use their timeouts. How can you make those tense seconds any more exciting? The Kiss Cam. It’s the reason why going on a first date to the old Boston Garden was never a smart plan. Seeing yourself on the jumbotron inside the outline of a heart is probably fun if you’re married, but what if you?...

As a result, Turkey has not only experienced impressive gdp growth, but has rid itself of the hyperinflation that plagued it for most of the 1990s. For real estate agent Abdullah Cam, 23, who says his family firm has tripled revenues in the past five years, the AKP has been "great for business." Down the road, Mehmet Goktas, 41, agrees.
