...Keibler finished third. In a humbling post mortem of my prediction, I looked back at the way people were searching for Stacy. Her searches weren't about her dancing ability or even the show. Internet users were looking for pictures of the tall, leggy blond wrestler, fewer clothes preferred, en masse. This led to a new step in my prediction method, what I refer to now as an SKCC, the Stacy Keibler Correction Coefficient...
...Grand Slam. Williams took the Australian title, crushing the sport's hottest star, Russian-born, American-bred Maria Sharapova, in the final, 6-1, 6-2. She followed that up with another impressive hard-court title at the Sony Ericsson Open in Miami, again dismantling Sharapova, 1 and 1, en route to beating the world's current top-ranked player, Justine Henin, for the championship.

With a mastery of mise-en-sc?ne, Jones writes of the family's future as if it were the past, and the past as if it were the present. For the surviving members, what happened in the station's kitchen continues to play out, not unlike the true-life case of a Japanese soldier lost for 29 years in the Philippines jungles, who refused to believe World...
...refuses to regard De Jesus as silly: Tweed is impressed with its use of Spanish language media and even YouTube. But at the same time, he thinks it is nothing to be afraid of. Technically, Tweed notes, Crecienda en Gracia is a cult, a small group in some tension with the world at large and organized around a single magnetic leader. But it is not a cult as understood in the popular sense: Jim Jones or the Branch Davidians, who in deep self-imposed isolation, honed a violent apocalyptic element that eventually led to murder or suicide. Those at last...
