...Good Intentions Paving Co." but it feels a little bit poppier than your other work. Actually, a lot of the album does. I think part of it was a reaction to the previous record, Ys.

But with the growth in interest that Kim has nurtured - she is one of the most recognized and highly paid celebrities in the country today - Korean skating officials realize they need to build more rinks and recruit more coaches, and fast. "After Kim Yu-Na became so popular, the number of students in our figure-skating club [more than] doubled, from 30% to 80%," says Hyun Ok Chung, deputy manager of Mokdong...
Germans, for their part, feel they've already paid enough. "A discussion about the past is not helpful at all to solve the problems facing us in Europe today," German Foreign Ministry spokesman Andreas Peschke told Reuters, pointing out that Germany has already paid billions to Greece in the form of official reparations for World War II as well as bilateral and European Union assistance...
