Shopping for mattresses online, I came across this (emphasis added):
Greetings, I purchased the Ara King Memory Foam Mattress from Costco about 6 weeks ago and have been sleeping on it for about 4 weeks. It took a two to three night adjustment period, but I can honestly say it is the best mattress I have ever used since I started sleeping indoors over 50 years ago.
What?
This gimmick where the Yankees let “two lucky fans” pitch middle relief is not working out.
No, it’s not.
The Times Will Cut Sections to Lower Costs – NYTimes.com.
The Times is axing my favorite section: the Sunday “The City” section, available in print only in the city.
They say “some elements” of it will be collapsed into a new section that includes local news. We’ve heard these hollow promises before; remember when they said that eliminating the Metro section would mean no cut in pages devoted to local news? Now I count only three ad-laden local news pages on most days.
I’m sure they’ll keep “F.Y.I.,” the local trivia bit. And maybe a few neighborhood stories. But the rest of it is gone. I’m very upset.
