The coincidence that we’d ever cross paths on that same date 8 years later allowed us to pay due respect to another fellow traveler who was just lookin’ for a home.

“Look out!” I shouted as a loose pig shot by her blind side followed by a sweaty boy with sawdust on his pants and a number flapping on his back.

Commenter: KImberlyMy husband and I attended college after our children were born. As we had married and had children young, we relied heavily on federal loans to pay for our education. If all had gone well we would have had a relatively easy time paying them back. Unfortunately all did not go well. Before we graduated my grandpa developed Alzheimer’s disease. I stayed home so that I could help my grandma care for him. We were determined to keep him out of a nursing home, and for that to be possible my grandma needed someone with her full time. There was no other family in the state. With only my husband’s income, we could not afford the payments on our student loans. Neither did we qualify for a hardship deferrment. Sallie Mae uses the poverty level for a family of two to determine hardship, and we were a family of five. We tried to explain the situation to the lender, but they rudely told us that our family situation was not their concern. They even suggested that I ask my grandma for some of her Social Security to help with the payments. In the end we were forced to forbear our loans, and allow the interest to grow. After my grandpa died my grandma moved in with us. She had developed colon cancer. I continued to stay home to care for her full time. We couldn’t afford even a part time nurse. Now my husband was supporting six people. Again, Sallie Mae informed us that they would not consider family size or illness in determining payments, and that we would just have to continue the forbearance. This, of course, is highly advantagous to the lender. We were having a difficult time making it from month to month without the student loans. There were months when our electricity alone was $800/month due to the constantly running machines used in my grandma’s care. Her cancer had spread, and her care had become incredibly expensive. We were forced to continue our forbearance. While I am very grateful that we could care for both of my grandparents, and that they were both able to be at home when they passed away, our student loan payments are now over $1000 every month. We have not been able to save for our childrens’ future, afford medical care, or save for our retirement. I was diagnosed with systemic lupus last year, and still not been able to see a doctor to begin treatment. We rarely spend money on nonessentials. There is no money to spend. All because we choose to take care of our family- something I would think the American government would not only encourage, but facilitate. Doesn’t it embody "American values"? Instead we have been heavily penalized for it. I contacted legislators about our situation, and received letters claiming that difficulting in repaying student loans is caused by people spending too heavily- as if our situation was created by a lavish lifestyle. All in all, everyone involved has been unbelievably heartless, despite all of their campaign rhetoric. It makes little sense for the government to squeeze the very people that could make up the middle class of America in such a way, but I suppose it helps the lobbying companies that donate to their campaigns.

England’s Arsenal Football Club is one of the most famous in the world – who would believe their captain in their inaugural first division season in 1903/04 would have learnt his soccer at Hamilton Academical and Adamstown Rosebuds in Newcastle.  

The star of the Big Hole Wilderness Experience and Wildlife Procurement Extravagance was Big Eddie, a puppy-hearted Pit bull/Power Wagon cross. At 6 foot 6, 280 with a full beard, he took up a lot of room in a two man tent. He was, officially, the camp cook.

"Michael lost his chance of living on Hera, didn’t he? He lost that, like you did, Calli." Gem rode her MARA around the ramp, doing an easy somersault, ending in a wide meditative circle, arms dangling down. "And he likes you. You just have to be nice to him."

 He missed goldmedal glory as his team went on to win, but redemption came at Sydney in 2000 when he was again a member of the victorious three-day team. Ryan’s Olympic career ended as reserve rider at the 2004 Athens Olympics, and he is now based in the United Kingdom and still competing.

Frequently, journalists marvel at the strange fate of an aging medium in an era of constantly changing media formats.

The exact shape and dimensions of the Surf Ranch hydrofoil are a trade secret. Whatever its particulars, it is nothing like the hydrofoils under the hulls of high-speed racing sailboats, which lift them above the water’s surface. “This was like I was trying to design the worst possible sailboat hull—the slowest, most uncontrollable,” Fincham told me. He chortled, but he did not stop peering across the water, assessing the waves and the state of the pool during the three minutes that it was left to settle between waves. His phone buzzed. His team was apparently seeing discrepancies. “That was the wind, I think,” he told someone. The foil beneath the Vehicle can run at different angles and at different speeds, to create different types of waves. For this competition, all the waves were supposed to be exactly the same, but that could require tweaks as conditions changed. Fincham gave mumbled instructions to staff members in a control tower, near the midpoint of the pool. Perfection was a work in progress.

Patrons at the 1977 Golden Slipper, the world’s richest race for two-year-old racehorses, saw one of the greatest performances in the race’s history when the champion Newcastle colt Luskin Star, showing brilliant speed, won by seven lengths taking 1.7 seconds off the race record.
