...upbeat television sermons had helped Adams, 49, get through the hard times, and now Adams was expecting the smiling, Texas-twanged 43-year-old to help boost him back toward success. And Osteen did. Inspired by the preacher's insistence that one of God's top priorities is to shower blessings on Christians in this lifetime--and by the corollary assumption that one of the worst things a person can do is to expect anything less--Adams marched into Gullo Ford in Conroe looking for work. He didn't have entry-level aspirations: "God has showed me that he doesn...
...since 2000. Locations extend from Anchorage (where at least one practitioner previously found herself competing with moose at a local lake) to Tampa and, as of July, in New York City's super-rich summer camp, East Hampton.

No longer could I croon Mariah Carey at the top of my lungs in the shower at four o’clock in the morning; I might disturb other slumbering or studying Thayer residents. Early on, my proctor gently drew me aside and explained the dorm etiquette of using “indoor voices when we’re indoors”; he had gotten complaints from...
...Steele's office, which he shares with his deckhand, Barry Moore, is a $750,000 aluminum boat, Cutloose, equipped with six beds, a shower, toilet, TV, microwave oven and satellite navigation that directs them to any of the 78 pots they've placed on the ocean floor. "Since I started, the technology's gone from a watch, compass and flagpoles to state-of-the-art stuff," says Steele, 49. Throw in quotas and faster boats, and "it's a day game now." Still, in fishing season the days start at about 3 a.m. and leave Steele exhausted. Decades...
