...next play, under pressure from the Bears and rolling right, Wilford forced a terrible pass that went right into the hands of Paquette. Wilford's ill-advised pass put to death any chance of a Crimson comeback...
...Marriott worry about storm insurance, hurricanes and repainting the woodwork every year," says John D. Strong, 63, of Decatur, Ill., who has 14 weeks at four properties in Hilton Head, S.C., where beachfront property was too expensive for him to buy outright. Strong and his peers are also getting variety through bartering. For a fee of about $120 a year, companies like Resort Condominiums International and Interval International will broker an exchange, letting time-share owners in, say, Florida, the most popular destination, journey off to Colorado or Europe...

But when it comes to answering the really important questions--how to live and what to love--I'm afraid that my performance would fall in the bottom percentiles...
...song that does not translate well to live performance, even though the crowd was whistling along. The guest musicians were solid when not left out of the mix entirely (i.e., the cellist whose name I couldn't hear from the balcony). Ryan's bass effect sounded very ill during the downward slide lick on "Fa Fa," unlike the recorded version...
