...there and play against guys. That's what I did growing up. I have two older brothers who beat me up and made me tough, and I love them for it. I would always play against them because they were bigger and faster and stronger, and it makes you tougher...
...different muscles, for sure. For movies, you have to think of time as set - everything else in music is variable time. In cinema, the composer has to sort of decide in the collaborative sense: Do you want time to seem like it's moving faster or slower? You can play one music to a scene and it seems to last forever, but play a different thing and it just whizzes by. A ballet dancer can take his time with a scene, going a little faster or a little slower, and a conductor can change night after night. There are liberties...
...home buyer tax credit provided a lot of the boost. That means if you're trying to sell a house that a first-time home buyer probably wouldn't purchase - anything that's not priced as a starter home - you're not likely to feel the benefit of a faster moving inventory.

...ever since, public doubts about the stimulus have, if anything, deepened. The economy deteriorated faster than economists expected, with unemployment now predicted to exceed 10% next year, higher than the White House had projected in January. While that might under normal circumstances make any stimulus more popular, voters have been spooked by the enormous deficits Washington is running up as it tries to right the economy. In 2009 alone, the U.S. government will take on debt equal to about 13% of its economic output, and by 2016 the U.S. debt is projected to top 70% of GDP, twice...
Once prohibitively expensive, places such as South Korea and Iceland have been transformed into bargain getaways. The weakening of South Korea's won helped the country attract 7% more tourists last year--a faster rise than that of any other Asian destination--and so far this year, 50% more Japanese tourists have visited. In Iceland, where the krona has fallen sharply, the nation is betting on increased arrivals: this summer Icelandair will open up new routes to nine cities in Europe and North America. And VisitBritain, the official U.K. tourism body, is running a $2.6 million ad campaign urging foreigners...
