...coincidentally, looks like a big, blank Scrabble board), he can create his own word game by adding special "double word" and "triple letter" tiles in any configuration he chooses. If a user happens to create a board that's identical to the original Scrabble and saves that setting - a feat that takes less than two minutes - he can elect to save the template and reuse it over and over again. It's a free world, after all, and what you do in the privacy of your online-gaming world is private, presumably...
...want to discount the daring of Petit's feat (or feet). He was working a hell of a way up from the ground, with the winds whistling and the towers themselves swaying as he traversed the space between them. But no matter how high in the sky a wire is, the person walking it is not an artist. He or she is just a daredevil, trying to grab the gawkers' attention. Since you could probably get yourself killed falling from a wire 30 feet off the ground, additional height enhances the spectacle, but aside from the wind gusts, the risk...
...Miro's talent for oscillating between the general and the particular was his series of 23 modestly sized paintings known, collectively, as the Constellations, most of which he painted in Mallorca, after fleeing from occupied France, in 1940-41.

The recurrent shapes in these are two black forms -- the circle and a bow tie, or diabolo -- which overlap and dance in deep space in swarms, with uncanny and magical precision, alternating with other signs from his repertoire: eye, face, star, vagina, hairs, moon, bird. They...
...went to Democratic candidates and $390.4 million went to Republicans. Sensing donor fatigue, Obama's e-mail appeals have slowed to about one a week, versus several a week at the height of the primaries. But Obama needs to keep up the pace: essentially, he must repeat his primary feat, add more than 50% and do it in a quarter of the time. "It's a huge task that we've got," said one top Obama donor. "I wouldn't define it as concern, but there's a realization of the enormity of what we are trying to accomplish...
...High power costs and their benefits With partner origin energy, a big Australian oil and gas company, Geodynamics now plans to build enough wells to run a 50-MW commercial power plant by 2011. That feat will need much deeper wells and better water flows. If it works, Geodynamics will build more wells to produce 500 MW - about the output of a modern gas-turbine power plant...
