...Koval, 46, figured his boarding house for a gold mine. The two-storied building with 23 double rooms is only a short walk from the Black Sea coast in Nizhneimeretinskaya Bukhta, a town just 28 miles (45 km) down the shoreline from Sochi - the host city of the 2014 Winter Olympics.

...kind of appeal it's hard to imagine working for Obama is a racial appeal; he knows he can't win as the Black Candidate. I remember watching Obama in a school auditorium in Berlin, N.H., this winter, long before Rev. Wright became a household name.

"The previous year, she had bronchitis, an ear infection, a urinary-tract infection and three or four colds," Mueller says. "This year she missed two days of school all winter." That's why Mueller joined the cow-share program, in which members pay quarterly fees...
...Last year I was struggling in the winter, and I got a nice care package from the team,” Davies says. “It’s just really nice to know that I still have this support from my college team...
