Bear Memories
"Halas would provide food according to how we had fared against the Packers. If we won, it was steaks for everybody. But if we lost, we were lucky to be served hamburgers." --Harlan Hill, 1950s "I didn't have any particular grievance with any of the Packer players, I just wanted to beat them all." --Hall of Famer Doug Atkins, 1960s "Doug Buffone took me aside to tell me about Green Bay games . . . to set me straight about the importance of the rivalry. It definitely was not a game to be taken for granted." --Brian Baschnagel, 1970s "Each year at the start of the season, fans we'd meet would just have the one request--please beat Green Bay." --Jim Flanigan, 1990s

Soviet debt recognition, a change in government, a bailout by the French government, or French banks, or a seceding country would have guaranteed at least a partial reimbursement. As Greece and other European countries raise the possibility of sovereign default, Oosterlinck’s superbly researched study is more urgent than ever.
The Oxford Handbook of Grand Strategy
A clearly articulated, well-defined, and relatively stable grand strategy is supposed to allow the ship of state to steer a steady course through the roiling seas of global politics. However, the obstacles to formulating and implementing grand strategy are, by all accounts, imposing. The Oxford Handbook of Grand Strategy addresses the conceptual and historical foundations, production, evolution, and future of grand strategy from a wide range of standpoints. The seven constituent sections present and critically examine the history of grand strategy, including beyond the West; six distinct theoretical approaches to the subject; the sources of grand strategy, ranging from geography and technolo...
Deadman's Hostel
Ace ist ein Betreiber der besonderen Art: Allen Besuchern verweigert er den Zutritt und vergrault die potenzielle Kundschaft. Zumindest, sofern diese am Leben ist. Denn im an Dies- und Jenseits grenzenden Deadman's Hostel haben nur die Toten ein Recht auf Service.
MORVANJA
Willkommen in Bluajan, einem Land, das Europa wieder aufblühen lässt. Terrorangriffe und Kriege haben die einst florierenden Länder gebeutelt und Regierungen zerbrechen lassen. Einzig und allein einer Firma ist es zu verdanken, dass die Menschen wieder Hoffnung fassen konnten. Und sie haben es erschaffen: Bluajan, das Land der Zukunft. Etwa 100 Jahre in der Zukunft ist Europa nicht mehr das, was es einst war. Die Staaten wurden zusammengelegt, die Menschen in große Megacitys umgesiedelt. Autos und Straßen nahezu verbannt. Der Mensch von heute fährt mit dem Zug von A nach B. Wohnung, Essen, Arbeit? Alles kein Thema, denn Bluajan hat für jeden seiner Bürger einen vorbestimmten Platz. D...
