But Gerard Soeteman, who wrote both films, and I were fascinated by it, and put it to the side. It was only in 2001 that Gerard solved the script...

Mark Blagrove, a lecturer in psychology at the University of Wales, where he runs a sleep laboratory, thinks it's possible the search for a biological function of dreaming could be futile.

Like her country, Sinnathambi Jeevatharsini is beauty torn. Just 9 years old, she has long black hair tied up in two loose knots on either side of her head, and a smile that explodes across her face, as if someone has switched on a spotlight.

The Crimson kept up the pressure, and 15:06 into the half, Curtis slammed in a stick-side goal off of a pass from Martin to cut the lead to three. Curtis scored to continue the Crimson’s offensive run and move within 7-5. Reclaiming control, Syracuse finished off a shot that bounced off the post with just over 10 minutes left in the first to extend the Orange lead...
