“Exercising during the cold and flu season will help people stay in shape, and most likely fight off colds or reduce the number of days a person is ill. The cold season should not be an excuse for the average person to refrain from exercising - working out at the gym, a brisk walk in the park or a jog through the neighborhood.” PeopleShouldPersonsHelpingFightingWalksNumbersColdExerciseShapesSeasonsAverageIllWork OutExcuseParksNeighborhoodGymFluRefrainAverage PersonJoggingWalks In The Park Author:Michael Flynn
“An incredible advertising career is not about creating an incredibly amazing ad, it's about making an incredible amazing ad every single day of your career, it's about getting those adds killed, and resurrecting them over and over again.

“During my 18 years I came to bat almost 10,000 times. I struck out about 1,700 times and walked maybe 1,800 times. You figure a ballplayer will average about 500 at-bats a season.

“The seasons, like greater tides, ebb and flow across the continents. Spring advances up the United States at the average rate of about fifteen miles a day. It ascends mountainsides at the rate of about a hundred feet a day. It sweeps ahead like a flood of water, racing down the long valleys, creeping up hillsides in a rising tide. Most of us, like the man who lives on the bank of a river and watches the stream flow by, see only one phase of the movement of spring. Each year the season advances toward us out of the south, sweeps around us, goes flooding away to the north.” MenYearsLongStatesWaterUnitedWatchesUnited StatesGreaterFeetMovementHe ManSpringHundredFlowRiversSeasonsSouthRateAverageMilesStreamsRisingRacingValleysTidesContinentsPhasesFloodFifteenFloodingEbb And Flow Book:The American seasons Source: The American seasons
“The real debate isn't over National League MVP, but over which of Barry Bonds' seasons should be considered his finest. There's 2001, when he hit his record seventy-three home runs. There's 2002, when he hit .370 and won his first batting title. And now there's 2004, when the San Francisco Giants slugger is preparing to shatter his season record for on-base percentage, hitting for nearly as high an average as Ichiro and missing fewer pitches than ever.” ShouldFirstsRealHomeRunningThreeRecordsMissingSeasonsAverageDebateTitlesLeagueGiantsFewerHittingFinestPreparingSeventiesSan FranciscoPercentagesHome RunBattingMvp Author:Ken Rosenthal

“For the third year in a row, the United States has set a record for winter warmth, federal scientists reported yesterday. With an average temperature of 38.4 degrees Fahrenheit, the three-month period of December 1999 through February 2000 was the warmest winter season in the last 105 years in the contiguous 48 states, the scientists said.
