		In baseball, the World Series is the championship series of Major League Baseball in the United States and Canada, played in October after the end of the regular season between the pennant winner of the American League and the pennant winner of the National League.
		The Series winner is determined through a best-of-seven playoff (except in 1903, 1919, 1920 and 1921 when the winner was determined through a best-of-nine playoff) and is awarded the World Series Trophy, as well as World Series rings.
		These series' were arranged by the individual teams, not by the leagues directly, the same as the 1880s World's Series matches had been, and which had often proved troublesome.

	World Series of Poker: A Retrospective
		Brian "Sailor" Roberts, a grand-prize winner of $210,000 in 1975's World Series, learned to shoot dice as a l2-year- old caddie and later emerged from a four-year hitch in the Navy during the Korean War as a full-time gambler.
		Conceding that the World Series is a personal long shot, he views it as the ultimate competition with the biggest prize.
		His reputation as one of the world's best all-around poker players derives from his talent as a very high limit player, and if he were to concentrate on no-limit playing, he could very well be number one in the World Series.

	The following article is from a special issue of Helios entitled "Rescuing Creusa: New Methodological Approaches to ...
		The younger Pliny reports that both daughters of one of his friends, Helvidius, died during labor.(4) And the Athenian philanthropist, Herodes Atticus, was griefstricken when his first child, a son, died on the day of his birth.(5) The anxiety and grief of the elite was surely paralleled among the lower classes.
		Regardless of the lack of attention to hygiene and sanitation and the likelihood that the medications employed did little good- except as they exercised a placebo effect and prevented dehydration- we must remember that, at the very least, the maternity care described by Pliny was very personal and attentive to the mother.
		It seems probable, therefore, that the rates of maternal and infant mortality in the Greco-Roman world varied with the socioeconomic class of the family and with the family's choice between traditional folk medicine and professionalized obstetrical care.

		While the 1992 World Series between the Braves and Toronto Blue Jays might have fallen just short of equaling the 1991 Series for sheer excitement, it was real close.
		This time, the Series participants engaged in four one-run games out of the six -- and the decisive game was an 11-inning thrill-o-rama that for taut drama would be difficult to top.
		Another pinch-hitter, Francisco Cabrera, tried to match his NL Championship Series heroics -- it was his two-run single that enabled the Braves to sew up the NL flag -- and he sent a scorching line drive to left field.

		When "Another World" was created by Irna Phillips in 1964, daytime TV was considered the lowest of mediums for actors to appear in.
		I did not start watching "Another World" until 1993 when two glamorous actresses, Linda Dano, and Anna Stuart, joined the show as two female characters who were focuses of many storylines for the show's remaining run.
		During her heyday on "Another World", Cecile DePoulignac (Susan Keith, Nancy Frangione) was one of the most memorable vixens on daytime; Sadly, the show's later writers turned her into a caricturature of what she had been, ruining many of the great moments she had earlier.
