...with the economy opening up, fewer families were willing, say, to send their daughters to train as weight lifters when they could study computer science instead.

When I moved into a new apartment a few weeks ago, I decided my financial situation was stable enough that I could start paying for my data again, though my frequent conversations with EarthLink tech support make me miss the old days of trying to crack YouHaveSomNerv's password.

It was almost over in four minutes, when Miraslav Klose and Mario Gomez broke unmolested toward the Polish goal only for Gomez to fluff Klose's slightly overhit pass.
