Miss Understanding? Re Nancy Gibbs' article, I work at a school in Germany and I'm responsible for a trainee teacher [Oct. 26]. In her first lesson she explained the differences between Ms., Miss and Mrs., a rather dull way to start, I thought.

In the world's capital of gambling, almost everyone, from cab drivers to bartenders to street people, was talking about the big fight - and why Pacquiao was going to take it. "I know I'm Puerto Rican," said a woman on the plane over from New York, "but I love the Pacman." The rowdy rivalry between the two island peoples (appropriately abbreviated P.R. vs. R.P., Puerto Rico vs. the Republic of the Philippines) did its fair share to rev up excitement in a town that...
