...Wordplay is every bit as smart as the Times puzzles, puzzlemakers and puzzle solvers. Creadon is a master of the suave segue-as when Okrent observes that "Using Reagle on Tuesday is like using Barry Bonds in Little League," and the film cuts to a clip of Bonds getting struck out by Mussina, leading to the star pitcher's segment...
...Ullen Trophy for demonstrating leadership and sportsmanship and for emphasizing team cooperation, a crucial factor in the Crimson’s successful season.GOLDEN RECEIVER Freshman Hayley Bock (left) shined in her rookie year, but it was senior catcher Erin Halpenny who had the standout season.

The machine "listens" to the radio waves that come back...
...Nike, it's even better that--as many have suspected--the spot is digitally altered. It turns out Ronaldinho is somewhat mortal, even in his new boots. Fans have debated the clip endlessly, and Ping Pong has been viewed 12 million times since its October Web-only release, one of the most popular viral videos on the Internet today. Even for a company known for its winning, edgy marketing, that is a hat trick. By creating a youth-driven buzz so crucial to its leadership in the multibillion-dollar sneaker wars, Nike, based in Beaverton, Ore.the largest sporting-goods company...
