The Pakistani Taliban have urged the country's media to support cricket captain Misbah-ul-Haq even though he is a "pathetic player".

Or is it?
If there is a single truth about Magic, it is that nothing on earth so efficiently evades it.

Hey Stone,

I am completing a Master's project - a web site about the Holocaust. It's an emotionally draining project but there are bright spots, and, writing the section about Jesse Owens just felt so uplifting.

I also made sure to add Joe Louis's knockout of Max Schmeling in the first round to win the heavyweight crown.

Baseball legend Hank Greenberg sated that every time he hit a home run, it was against Hitler. I like to imagine the possibility that this legendary power hitter could have had the chance to wield his vicious Louisville Slugger on the heads of Hitler, Himmler, Heydrich, and all the rest of that garbage.

Best,
Vlad

PS: Like me, you are not "home" for Thanksgiving, nonetheless my friend, I wish you a very happy one. Smile
