And we will always and forever be rivals as long as we are active,” assured Federer after the match. So when they finally teamed up for doubles on Saturday representing Team Europe, Federer said it was a “great moment”. They’ve only practiced together once, at the World Tour Finals, since they are first and foremost rivals, and wouldn’t want to expose any details of their games that could be used against them in a match one day. You couldn’t look away if you tried.Īs much as Federer and Nadal have portrayed a friendly relationship over the years, we’ve only ever seen them share a court for one reason: Competing against each other in a match (with the odd charity event here and there). Who will play on the ad court and who will play on the deuce court? No matter how staged that whole recording looked like, it was still, admittedly, must-see television. The masterminds behind the whole event - Federer and his management company Team8 - also recorded the doubles pair’s pre-match tactical session with their captain Bjorn Borg. Just testing reaction time, obviously □ /IATmeZacCJ ‘#FedalUtd’ was trending on social media, thanks to what has to be the most gif-able tennis match we’ve witnessed in years. ![]() ![]() ![]() I'm already waiting for years for The Doors of Stone, The Winds of Winter, Oathbringer and now The Thorn of Emberlain.

This Toon book by Nadja Spiegelman and Trade Loeffler, is a perfect way to discover what is in that cow pie and how it is connected to a much larger world. ![]() If you’ve ever poked a cow pie with a stick, you are ready for Zig and Wikki in The Cow. It’s a reading program to try to get kids into reading! The books are divided into 3 reading levels (Zig and Wikki are a reading level three). This is a hilarious way to teach kids about cows and how they eat, the ecosystem, dung beetles and what they do in the ecosystem, what flies do in the ecosystem, and how to get eaten by a cow (not recommended )! I WILL recommend this book to kids 7+, though! The illustrations and comic-book format make a book most kids will like and/or love! This is part of the Toon Books Easy-To-Read Comics series. The Zig and Wikki books have a comic-book format (because they’re comic books) and every now and then a fact box (Wikki’s information screen) will pop up. Zig sets out to find his fly but he and Wikki soon realize that their ship has been eaten by a cow and they need to get it back to get home! They crash on Earth and Wikki lets the fly go without Zig’s permission. So, Zig convinces Wikki to come back to Earth to make the fly feel better in case it is homesick. ![]() Zig and Wikki are back in an all new adventure! Zig’s pet fly (he brought a fly home from Earth on their last adventure) isn’t feeling really well. ![]() ![]() ![]() On one hand, Putin's many reforms - from tax cuts to an expansion of property rights - have helped reshape the potential of millions of Russians whose only experience of democracy had been crime, poverty, and instability after the fall of the Soviet Union. This audiobook is a grand, staggering achievement and a breathtaking look at one man's rule.

There are many, many reasons (that any bedtime reader will understand immediately) why it took us four months to read 453 pages. And, since October, 2011, I have been reading it out loud at night to my seven year old son. Since it came out in paperback in October, 2011 it has been flying off the shelves. ![]() ![]() I am a huge fan of all the books of hers I have read (reviews of which you can read by clicking here) and a huge fan of kid's books that have candy as a central plot theme.

The fact that he went insane in his mid-40s may be a hint that at least some of it is just the ramblings of a madman. Though his reputation has been largely salvaged from the stain of Nazism, even Walter Kaufmann, the man who did more than anyone in rehabilitating Nietzsche's image, said, "My disagreements with him are legion." Whatever else may be said, things like Compassion and Equality were not well regarded by Nietzsche. Even the foremost scholars on Nietzsche struggle to define what exactly he believed. Interpretations of Nietzsche vary wildly. Nietzsche is one of the few philosophical writers one might conceivably read simply for the joy of reading his prose. In any event, his aphorisms can be quoted often whatever one thinks of his ideas, he is one of the unquestionable masters of the German Language. What made his books so popular? Good question. It didn't end well for him back in his day, though, as he went nuts and soon died in his fifties. Nowadays, he is often placed among the most influential philosophers of all time. Hegel from 1802.įriedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche (15 October 1844 – 25 August 1900) was an eccentric German author who wrote lots of books laden with extremely provocative and controversial ideas for his time (some of which are still controversial to this day), and they made him famous. Friedrich Nietzsche, The Gay Science, Aphorism 125 ("The Madman"), 1882 note Fun fact: The quote "God is dead" already appears in a text of G.W.F. ![]() ![]() ![]() Speculation the two rappers were beefing first surfaced in 2021. And it'll remain genuine forever." Later in the interview, he was asked to pick between Meek and Wale, but was unable to because he considers them both "geniuses." "The love between Rozay, Meek Mill as well as Gunplay as well as Wale, that's something that's genuine. "It was nothing that we actually planned, it was most definitely something that just took place," he answered. "Was that something you planned out?" he asked Ross. The Drink Champs host suggested that he heard the rumors, but when he saw they were in the studio together again it "touched heart." questioning Ross about rumors of beef between him and Meek. Meek Mill my family." The topic then shifted to N.O.R.E. "It was something that Meek had posted online," he said. asked Rozay about his recent purchase of Meek's $4.2 million mansion in Atlanta, Georgia. In an appearance on Drink Champs, Rick Ross suggested there's nothing but "genuine" love between him and Maybach Music signee Meek Mill despite past rumors of beef.Īt around the 20:30 point of the episode, as seen above, N.O.R.E. ![]() ![]() ![]() Predictably, escapism was in high demand: Sales of romance, fantasy, science fiction, and detective books have grown especially strongly. ![]() As the economy foundered, laws against opposition tightened, and news of Russia’s military failures in Ukraine began to trickle in, people started buying noticeably fewer business and self-improvement tomes and more fiction. In 2022, it could be seen in the hands of people strolling on Moscow’s boulevards or lying next to vacationers sunbathing on Kaliningrad’s beaches.ġ984 is not the only book on Russians’ wartime reading list, which offers a window into how the book-reading public is processing its country’s increasingly militarist and totalitarian turn. Suddenly, George Orwell’s 1984, a dystopian novel about a totalitarian regime in a state of perpetual war written in the 1940s, became the most popular fiction book. As forbidden language was replaced with official euphemisms and the authorities launched an increasingly harsh crackdown on dissent, many Russians felt a distinct sense of déjà vu. When Russia launched the war that Russians must not call a war-the “special military operation,” in the Kremlin’s parlance-many Russians immediately recognized the Orwellian reality in which they now lived. ![]() |
