What Tiger shares with Nicklaus is a first-rate mental game, a vital weapon in a sport in which major tournament pressure can crush even great players. Woods has "the ability to stay in the present during a tournament and focus on hitting one shot at a time," Duran says. Woods' profane outbursts, once common, are now rare. He has learned to laugh at himself more often, which he did even when he made a triple-bogey in the third round at the U.S. Open...
...Clinton's peccadilloes. I've talked to women, men and even a few teenagers whose opinions on education, literacy and child care jibe fairly close to my own.

...vintage '90s pop-metal, as straightforward as a stretch of the New Jersey Turnpike. The band's trove of clever hooks and jolly bombast once made it a cool alternative for kids suffering from heavy-metal fatigue. But pop taste, like a teen's attention span, never lasts. Crush tries to update itself with Older, a tune about honoring your roots, but what it really, really wants is to re-live the days when jeans were tight and hair was big. Fine, but haven't we been down this road before...
